Channel 5's Murder in Slow Motion: Who was Clare Bernal and what happened to her killer?

Channel 5 viewers will be given another chance to follow the tragic and horrifying story of Harvey Nichols beauty consultant Clare Bernal who was killed by her stalker. The 22-year-old was stalked by her killer Michael Pech after going on just three dates with him.

After harassing the young woman for months, his obsession reached a sudden and horrific end in 2005 when he shot her in front of customers, before turning the gun on himself. Czech-born Pech, 30, was on bail awaiting sentence after admitting harassing Clare. He was high on cocaine when he killed his innocent victim on September 13.

Speaking to Channel 5 show 'Stalked: Murder In Slow Motion' which airs on Tuesday, Clare's mum Tricia said her daughter had phoned her up telling her she felt uncomfortable. She had told her mum how Pech didn't like her seeing her friends or going home.
