... and adopts the provisions of this subsection (4) and subsections (5) and (6) of this section with the goal of encouraging and authorizing effective intervention before stalking can escalate into behavior that has even more serious consequences.

A low-class friend of my Neighbor From Hell (NFH), in collaboration with my neighbor has harassed and threatened and stalked me using "anonymous" Hotmail email messages from June to September 2004. Both the friend and the neighbor admit to an "agreement" to perform these activities. They have disagreed under oath as to the scope of the "agreement".

(1) A person commits harassment if, with intent to harass, annoy, or alarm another person, he or she:
(e) Initiates communication with a person, anonymously or otherwise by telephone, computer, computer network, or computer system in a manner intended to harass or threaten bodily injury or property damage, or makes any comment, request, suggestion, or proposal by telephone, computer, computer network, or computer system that is obscene; or ...

All of the threatening, obscene and harassing email messages were traced to my neighbor's friend. After initially denying the messages under oath, he recanted his prior sworn testimony and
admitted to writing all of them, and admitted that some were "obscene" and a Permanent Protection Order (restraining order) was issued.
The Jefferson County Sheriff's Department says Woody747 did not make a "specific threat" and will not charge Woody747 with harassment.
Woody747: "... stop before you get yourself hurt."
Eric Harris: "God I can't wait till I can kill you people."

Woody747 wrote his threat to me in an "anonymous" email message. Eric Harris wrote his threat on a public web site. Both statements sure sound like a " specific threat" to me. The Jefferson County Sheriff's Department has ignored both statements. We know that the Eric Harris threat led to the Columbine Massacre.
How low will Woody747 go? Woody747 is still involved in the dispute to this day by impersonating others in posts to public discussion groups. Who knows what else he's up to. I wish I knew and the police don't seem interested.

"We all learned a lesson on April 20th," Lieutenant Kiekbusch said when asked if his office [Jefferson County Sheriff's Department] had mishandled the complaint. "We need to take these in a more serious fashion."

Really? I see no lesson learned. The Woody747 threat and the Eric Harris threat are both " specific threats" to me. The Jefferson County Sheriff's Department has ignored both threats. I want action against Woody747 NOW so we don't have to read about another "lesson" the police have learned if Woody747 acts out his threats. I see no lessons learned. Business as Usual.
Before anyone accuses me of being melodramatic, remember the Eric Harris threat and the price we all paid for it being ignored. Read the Judge’s comments about Woody747 and his threatening and hateful "anonymous" email messages when he granted me a Permanent Protection Order (restraining order) against Woody747.
Randy and Judy Brown can't count the times they called the Jefferson County sheriff about Eric Harris. But they know how many times detectives called back:
Zero.
The Browns talked publicly Sunday for the first time about their two-year ordeal with Harris, a young man they alternately described as an "evil genius" and "the Eddie Haskell of Columbine."

During the summer and fall, I reported all of these messages to the Jefferson County Sheriff's Department and (finally) an investigator was assigned to the case. However the harassing email messages kept coming and I saw no progress or even any activity by the investigator. The investigator insisted they were doing an investigation and was unhappy when I said I have no seen no evidence of an investigation.
Since I saw no results from the police investigation, I began investigating myself. I found the internet trail that led to my neighbor's friend. It was the results of MY investigation that led to the information that was used to obtain a Permanent Protection Order (restraining order) against my neighbors "friend". Turns out there is one or more monsters next door.
