Woman Narrowly Escapes Serial Killer Date

In late 2020, Monica White, seeking companionship after a divorce, joined the dating app Tagged. She connected with Anthony Robinson, who presented himself as a normal man with a job in waste management and a daughter. White found him unsettling during their initial January 2021 meeting, noting 'red flags' including uncomfortable intimacy and aggressive behavior. Despite these concerns, she allowed him to visit again in February 2021 for her birthday. His behavior, including intoxication and harassment, escalated, culminating in him urinating in her bed. White ended their association, giving him money to leave. Robinson then moved to a local motel and continued to harass White, who refused his advances.

Around eight months after meeting White, Robinson was arrested following a killing spree in late 2021. He targeted women he met on dating apps, killing them in motels. Robinson was convicted in 2025 for the murders of Allene Redmon and Tonita Smith, receiving two life sentences. He remains the primary suspect in the deaths of four other women, including Cheyenne Brown and Stephanie Harrison. White learned of his crimes through a news story and realized her rejection might have preceded his violent actions. She has since stopped using dating apps and prioritizes self-love and patience.
