Stalking Charges in the State of Florida

Because stalking involves any type of malicious and repeated harassment, it encompasses a wide range of behavior. Stalking can be committed in person, or over the Internet (aka cyberstalking.) This crime is usually considered a first degree misdemeanor, punishable by up to one year in jail and a fine of up to $1,000. However, when a victim alleges someone has made a credible threat to their safety, it may be tried as a third degree felony. This is known as aggravated stalking, and can be punishable by up to 5 years in prison and a fine of up to $5,000.

Different types of stalking may include:

• Mailing someone unwanted letters or packages
• Tracking someone through a phone or GPS device
• Gathering information about someone (i.e. talking to their friends, performing public searches, going through their trash)
• Showing up at or driving past someone’s home, school, work, or another public place that person frequents
• Photographing or recording a person without their consent
