Stalking Is A Form Of Repeated Victimization

Stalking is a form of repeated victimizing behavior constituting a pattern or series of incidents rather than a single criminal act.

Stalking often manifests as a series of events that may not seem significant if viewed individually but create a sense of constant anxiety for the victim when considered as a whole. This constant victimization is a process of traumatization similar to that experienced by victims of domestic and dating violence.
