4 college students were murdered in their sleep in Moscow ID by a stalker.

Stalking is repetitive unwanted attention.

Valpal1 :" Stalking is repetitive unwanted attention."
Stalking takes many forms, it is psychologically obsessive behavior by the perpetrator, or their family who has access to :
A) Emotional - it is a controlling personality which wants to control you
B) Physical - frequently with physical confrontation, perhaps with a camera, or showing up at an activity when you attend meetings, or through their associates who spy on you
C) Electronic - knowing your passwords to email, websites you visit, installing a gps on your auto to know of your movements, cellphone relay for conversations, etc., etc.
D) Unwanted access to your home , office, or vehicle where keys are copied without your knowledge or approval.

On NetFlicks, there is currently a good instructional movie about obsessive stalking with Clint Eastwood :
It's called : "Play Misty for me".
Highly recommended for the psychological drama involved in stalking both from the perps perspective and from the victim's response.

Stalking is a high risk factor for lethality. Nationally, 54% of female homicide victims reported stalking to the police before they were killed by their stalker and 76% of female homicide victims experienced stalking by an intimate partner before they were killed.

Being murdered is a health issue, being a stalker is a mental health issue.

“Stalking is repetitive unwanted attention.”

Exactly. Or its attention unwanted that verges in to actual violation of a law or right. Then, slowly, using cases like this, it’s whatever anyone wants to say it is. That’s what I was commenting on. See “ bullying”. I’m 64 and have been seeing stories like this in a variety of subjects for about 54 of those years.
