The Illinois Stalking Statute Is Mainly Constitutional

February 12, 2020 By Samuel Partida, Jr.

The Illinois stalking statute says the following:

“A person commits stalking when he or she knowingly engages in a course of conduct directed at a specific person, and he or she knows or should know that this course of conduct would cause a reasonable person to: (1) fear for his or her safety or the safety of a third person; or (2) suffer other emotional distress.”

720 ILCS 5/12-7.3(a)(1), (a)(2).

The phrase “course of conduct” is defined in subsection (c) as:

“2 or more acts, including but not limited to acts in which a defendant directly, indirectly, or through third parties, by any action, method, device, or means follows, monitors, observes, surveils, threatens, or communicates to or about, a person, engages in other non-consensual contact, or interferes with or damages a person’s property or pet. A course of conduct may include contact via electronic communications.”

720 ILCS 5/12-7.3(c)(1).
