Nikki Ware

Nikki Ware is a news reporter who was stalked by "The Primetime Kidnapper" Dennis Benjamin and appeared in Lethal Obsession in Profiler.

Background
Nikki Ware, graduating from the Midwest and starting out as a reporter in Wichita, relocated to Atlanta to work in a local news station. She became a big success, especially with her personally-hosted "Hero of the Day" segments. One segment covered Dennis Benjamin, a technical engineer who pulled a woman out of the way of a truck. She never realized Benjamin developed a delusional infatuation towards her, which would soon turn out to be deadly.

Lethal Obsession
Ware is first shown on the scene of the death of Norman Westfall, abducted and killed by Benjamin so she'd report the crime and have her career boosted. Later, when talking with Samantha Waters, she explains she agreed not to broadcast the ransom tape he sent to the station, but she regrets doing so because Westfall died. Waters tells her nothing could've stopped Benjamin from killing him. Waters than goes to visit her and sees she's researching her.
