Action News Jax told you back in January, police accused 31-year-old Ayo Eniwaye of making multiple death threats against a local woman.
“He said I’m going to burn your house down and you’re going to be the next Gabby Petito. He would tell me I’ll going to missing and end up on Dateline.”

Ayo Eniwaye has been behind bars for violating an injunction since January. He will stay locked up until around October 2025.
The woman who was stalked, Helena Black said Eniwaye threatened to kill her several times and even threatened to kill the judge who granted her injunction. She adds her life was turned upside down from September 4, 2023, up until he was arrested in January.
Black said she moved apartments several times.
“It became clear right away that he had a bone to pick with me that was personal. It was like he and I had something he was upset about, and he was hyper fixated on that.”
Black said the messages ranged from stalking and harassment to death threats.

“It’s kind of rare to see a victim that wasn’t murdered. We always hear about them after they die.”
Black said now that Ayo Eniwaye has pleaded guilty and will stay behind bars, she will educate women online on how to protect themselves from stalkers- whether they be strangers or previous domestic partners.
She adds if you find yourself in a similar situation, document every message and phone call.
“This is something we’ve grown very used to in society and we almost romanticize the attention. However, it’s not romantic but it’s terrifying.”
If you or someone you know is being harassed or stalked online, there are multiple resources to receive help. You are encouraged to call local law enforcement or the Victim Connect Resource Center at 855-484-2846.
