Prior to information on this subject becoming available, Betsy Ramsey was learning to think like a stalker and developing methods of intervention. She has worked thousands of cases as a victim advocate and traveled across the US and Canada training law enforcement and other professionals on the subject. This guide is based on years of experience and from having been stalked. Targets of stalkers need to be educated quickly on the dynamics and the dos and don'ts of handling the crime. This guide provides information that can assist the target through the process. It starts with basics you should keep in mind and covers the dynamics of stalkers and obsession, the dynamics and common reactions of targets, documentation, intervention, laws, legal action, danger assessment and security. Cyber/electronic stalking is also addressed with information on equipment that may be used to stalk and recommendations for the targets to keep up with the data that is going out on the Internet by the stalker that may be inaccurate and can pose danger. Straightforward and easy-to-read, the handbook can be used as a reference and to educate family, friends and co-workers of the target. The sad truth is that stalking cases are often mishandled because those involved do not understand the dynamics of the crime. The guide can also be used for prevention, particularly by the parents of children. Young children are not referred to as stalkers, but they can be trained by an adult to be obsessive. Children as young as preschool have focused inappropriately on a classmate. The child's obsessive parent encourages the behavior and tries to take over the life of the targeted child and his/her parents. Stalking is a crime that impacts the lives of the targets and those around them. This criminal can escalate rapidly and quickly pose a danger. This handbook is a step-by-step guide for those who are being stalked or want to learn about this dangerous crime. .
