Stalking

What is stalking?

While legal definitions of stalking vary from one jurisdiction to another, a good working definition of stalking is 
a course of conduct directed at a specific person that would cause a reasonable person to feel fear. Stalking is serious, often violent, and can escalate over time.

How often does this happen?
  • The majority of husbands who kill their wives stalk them first.
  • The majority of stalking victims are stalked by someone they know: 61% of female victims and 44% of male victims of stalking are stalked by a current or former intimate partner, 25% of female victims and 32% of male victims are stalked by an acquaintance. 
  • 66% of stalkers pursue their victims at least once per week, many daily.
  • 78% of stalkers use more than one means of approach.
  • Weapons are used to harm or threaten victims in 1 out of 5 cases.
  • Almost 1/3 of stalkers have stalked before.
  • Intimate partner stalkers frequently approach their targets, and their behaviors escalate quickly. 

When should I be concerned?
Aggravating factors may include: possession of a deadly weapon, violation of a court order or condition of probation/parole, victim under 16 years, or same victim as prior occasions. You can also use the MOSAIC tool online to objectively assess your threat.
