Q

I run a YouTube channel, and a particular viewer keeps waiting in front of my house. Could this constitute a stalking crime?

Legal IntellectualViews44,740

I am a creator who uploads content sharing my daily life on YouTube. There was also the joy of communicating as I grew the channel, but recently one viewer, apparently having found out my home address, has repeatedly been waiting in front of my house. At first I thought he was a fan and tried to let it go, but one day he rang the doorbell at dawn and even sent me text messages. I am considering whether to report it, and I would like to know whether this can really constitute a stalking crime and whether there is actually a way to protect me.

Answer to Related Inquiry

The situation you described clearly constitutes a stalking crime.


The act of repeatedly waiting or watching at a particular place, and the act of continuously attempting to make contact, are recognized as a stalking crime, and if you report it to the police, emergency provisional measures may be imposed.


In such a situation, a criminal attorney at Daeryun Law LLC handles everything on your behalf, from collecting evidence of the stalking crime to drafting and filing the written complaint.


In addition, if necessary, a civil attorney also assists with a claim for damages seeking compensation for emotional harm.


Daeryun Law LLC not only provides legal responses but also operates a security center to provide personal protection services for stalking victims.


In particular, because public figures or those with a high degree of online exposure face a great risk of unexpected contact in daily life, we provide measures such as perimeter protection of the residence, monitoring of movement routes, and vehicle accompaniment through security personnel.


If you would like to retain a firm from which you can receive both a response to a stalking crime and security services with a single retention, you may request a consultation with Daeryun.


Daeryun Law LLC listens to the voices of its clients 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.
