Stalking is a dangerous crime that affects an estimated 6.6 million women and men each year. Stalking is gen- erally defined as a pattern of behavior directed at a spe- cific person that would cause a reasonable person to feel fear. Stalking is considered a crime under the laws of all 50 states. According to the National Center for Victims of Crime, as many as 1 in 4 women and 1 in 13 men have experienced stalking victimization at some point during their lifetime and most often the stalker is someone the victim knows, usually an acquaintance, relative, or a current or former partner. Stalking is unpredictable, no two stalking situations are alike. Stalking behaviors can include: Knowing your schedule. Showing up at places you go. Sending unwanted mail, email and pictures. Calling or texting repeatedly. Contacting you or posting about you on social networking sites Writing letters. Damaging your property. Creating a Web site about you. Sending gifts. Stealing things that belong to you. Any other actions to contact, harass, track, or frighten you. If you or someone you know has been a victim of stalking there are resources available.
