- 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.
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.
- Can be filed in conjunction with other criminal charges (like, 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.
