Burgess explains the personalities she created

Meet the dangerous fantasist who tricked teenage boys into falling in love.

Her victims explain how they were fooled and the woman herself describes how she did it.  

Reporter Paula Penfold met Facebook stalker Natalia Burgess for an intriguing insight into a complex world of deceit.

Burgess explains the personalities she created, the voices she put on and the tricks she used. Her victims tell a sadder story – a story of broken hearts and, in some cases, broken lives.

Very Very sick & disturbing to see! I think that she is mentally unwell & just because she is a woman she shouldn't be let off. I'd like to see some sort of punishment here - who's to say she won't do it again. It's obviously an addiction playing these sorts of games with young men & the fact that one has taken his own life is so horrible & sad! Karma is all I can say - & surely there is law to help protect our children in NZ against this kind of predator!? or is there...........???? :(

She's a predator, but the boys and the parents that got sucked in by someone they'd never met need a few more braincells.

Arguably due to her history of mental problems her ability to show emotion is restricted to what seems to me is laughter and smirking. Like anything those boys should have known better but that doesn't excuse her actions. The boy might have been naive but he didn't need to die.

Absolutely pathetic. If the genders where reversed the predator would be in jail and sentenced to life probably. Remember all women aren't like that, but as long as the system enables them to all be like that they should ALL be treated like they are that.

I was so disturbed to see this interveiw? This mentally ill woman showed no genuine remorse for the damage she has caused to so many young lives? I struggle to beleive she even realises the magnitude of the impact her actions have had on her victoms and it appears she will now slip through the cracks and go unpunished?
It is my beleif that someone that poses such dangeous preditory and shameless profile will reoffend leaving a train wreck of casuilties throughout her existance so should be delt with very harshly...

Hello all,

From my perspective teenagers acting violently like this is not directly related to their race or skin colour but towards the environment they call "home". Children begin mirroring the behaviour of their parents, this includes violence and abuse.

Once the teen gets "in" with a crowd with similar upbringing they swarm in masses. They then use these large "packs" to cause grief to anyone unfortunate to be singled out.

Sadly alot of Maori and PI parents seem to turn a blind eye to this(adding fuel to the fire) and it reflects on our community as a whole.
