FACTSHEET:
Stalking Safety Plan Guidelines

Victims of stalking include individuals presently at risk for imminent danger to their physical and/or emotional welfare, and those with danger continually pending, but not immediately at risk for harm. In addition to becoming familiar with stalking laws that presently exist, victims of stalking should be informed about the resources and procedural precautions available to assist and protect them. It is important for stalking victims to recognize that their victimization is not their fault. Stalking is a crime that can touch anyone, regardless of gender, race, sexual orientation, socio-economic status, geographical location, or with whom a person may associate.

Heat on H'ween Sickos Responded to by Jennifer L. Pass

I applaud the NYPD and state probation and parole officials for focusing on this very serious epidemic of child sexual abuse by increasing their presence and attention on Halloween. It is my hope, however, that in addition to the message that these actions are intended to send today, 'Zero Tolerance' on Halloween, awareness is also raised that this is an ongoing epidemic we as a society need to have a 'Zero Tolerance' for on a daily basis. To that end, it would be a great step in the right direction not place such a crass title on an article reporting on such a serious matter. Additionally, it would help to correctly refer to Level 3 child-sex fiends as child abuse perpetrators.
