Netflix’s July 2026 documentary 'A Toxic Love Story' follows Michelle Hadley’s arrest in June 2016 after she allegedly tried to get revenge on her ex-boyfriend, deputy U.S. Marshal Ian Diaz, and his new wife, Angela Diaz, by sending anonymous threats to the couple and soliciting men on Craigslist to carry out a “rape fantasy” that involved the Diazes. Hadley was arrested and served almost three months in prison before the truth behind the case was fully discovered in 2017, revealing that she was actually a victim all along. Ian and Angela were tied to the crime after digital forensic investigators learned that the “Lilithistruth” accounts were actually created by Angela, not Hadley as previously claimed. Investigators learned that the device logs and IP addresses poked holes into the story that the Diazes had been telling and proved Hadley had never stalked them. Hadley’s charges were dropped in January 2017, and Angela was arrested that same month. Angela pleaded guilty to 10 felony counts in October 2017 and was sentenced to five years in prison. She has since divorced Ian.

He was found guilty on all counts and was sentenced to serve 10 years and one month in prison. For a full breakdown of the Netflix series visit usmagazine.com.
