I ended up crawling on my stomach to my upstairs neighbors' home to call 911. I thought I was going to be killed. My stalker had scaled a huge fence to get to my home. Sufficiently frightened, and not wanting to be murdered, I did everything I was told to do by the nation's top criminal behaviorists. Most people wanted to know why I just didn't simply relocate.
Most private eyes work for violent predators and track down terrified victims.
The problem is so serious, the U.S. Department of Justice says that private eyes are now posing a serious threat to our system of justice by intimidating witnesses from testifying in criminal cases. A whopping 86 percent of stalking victims are kept under surveillance. In the old days that might have worked, but not anymore. Even if you move to Iowa you can be found quite easily with today's databases. My case went from the California Social Security office to the Security Administration headquarters in Baltimore, Maryland, where I was finally granted a new number.
