When Stalking Charges Are Filed…

Stalking charges are typically filed when a person has been accused of:

• Threatening someone else and, following the threats, allegedly surveilling, contacting and/or somehow communicating with the threatened person (or someone intimately connected to the threatened person) on a repeated basis
• Contacting, surveilling and/or communicating with a person (or someone intimately connected to that person) on a repeated basis and, in the course of this persistent contact, causing the alleged victim to experience emotional distress.

Witness statements, as well as phone records and surveillance footage, can all be critical evidence in these cases.

Stalking Charges: Potential Penalties upon Conviction

While the severity of stalking charges will vary according to the specifics of a given case, in general, these charges can be filed as:

• Class 5 felonies if a person has no criminal history of allegedly stalking someone else in the past – These charges can result in as much as 3 years in prison upon conviction.
• Class 4 felonies if a person has even one prior stalking conviction on his record and/or the incident occurred in violation of an existing restraining order – Upon conviction, these charges can result in up to 6 years in prison.

It’s also important to point out that stalking charges:

• Can be filed in conjunction with other criminal charges (for instance assault charges or restraining order violations) and that other charges can only compound the potential penalties a person may face
• Can be considered to be “extraordinary risk crimes,” which can give a judge the discretion to intensify the possible penalties a person faces upon conviction.
