Legally, it is defined by state statutes, and is generally considered a course of conduct that places a person in fear for their safety.<\/p>\n<p>In Colorado, stalking is defined as harassing someone (i.e., following, contacting, or watching another person) in a way that causes them to feel fearful (state statute C.R.S. 18-9-111). A first time offense is considered a Class 5 Felony, and a Class 4 Felony when there is a restraining order or injunction already in place.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/morgansstalking.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/08\/Morganhearthand.jpg?ssl=1\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"387\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/morgansstalking.com\/?attachment_id=387\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/morgansstalking.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/08\/Morganhearthand.jpg?fit=3872%2C2592&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"3872,2592\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-title=\"Morganhearthand\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/morgansstalking.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/08\/Morganhearthand.jpg?fit=584%2C391&amp;ssl=1\" class=\"alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-387\" title=\"Morganhearthand\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/morgansstalking.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/08\/Morganhearthand.jpg?resize=150%2C150&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/morgansstalking.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/08\/Morganhearthand.jpg?resize=150%2C150&amp;ssl=1 150w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/morgansstalking.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/08\/Morganhearthand.jpg?zoom=2&amp;resize=150%2C150&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/morgansstalking.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/08\/Morganhearthand.jpg?zoom=3&amp;resize=150%2C150&amp;ssl=1 450w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px\" \/><\/a>According to the National Center for Victims of Crime, 1,006,970 women and 370,000 men are stalked annually in the United States.
