A Bangladeshi national was charged with strangling his sister-in-law, Monica Islam, to death in Florida in May 2025, with prosecutors alleging a long-standing obsession. He was a deported immigrant who illegally re-entered the U.S. and fled to a sanctuary city after the killing; prosecutors are seeking the death penalty. The case is real and covered by multiple news outlets, though the specific framing of 'lusting after her for years' comes directly from prosecutors' characterization rather than independently verified behavioral details.
