Millions of
STALKING VICTIMS
are never heard.
Stalking is a crime in the U.S., but it can be difficult for a victim to get law enforcement to intervene. An incident in isolation might not rise to the pattern of behavior required for a stalking charge.
For every 1,000 incidents of stalking, an estimated:
287
Incidents are reported to law enforcement
159
Police reports will
be taken
12
Arrests will be made
1
Will be convicted
Living life as the target of a stalker is intimidating, isolating and intensely unbearable as you become paralyzed by fear and anxiety. A stalker may never directly threaten the victim, but the threat is real and lines between paranoia and vigilance become smudged beyond recognition.
It is no way to live.
There are an estimated 13.5 million people stalked each year:
1 in 3 women
1 in 6 men
