    Question Threats Made By Text Messages

    Hi. It's crazy bc I'm in the same situation. I was dating a married man for 3 years and our affair has been over for more than 3 months now. His wife also texts me at least once a week calling me a whore and now saying she will kill me. I have her texts messages, emails, and even a voicemail. It has escalated to her banging on my door several times and even sitting outside of my job. She is obsessed with me. I live in Virginia also. I went to the magistrates office to get a restraining order but come to find out our wonderful commonwealth only issues protective orders against familiy members or people who live with you. They said I have to file criminal charges. Then it goes to court. Can you give me advice on what you did to get a conviction against your stalker and has she stopped bothering you? Thanks

    You should seek help on a Canadian legal board.

    If somebody is threatening you and you believe the threats or want them prosecuted, make a police report. You can also explore getting a protective order.

    Mr KnowItAll......I thought it read she lives in Virginia? Am I missing something by sending her to a Canadian sight?

    To answer your question: I had a person harassing me via FaceBook. Turns out that in Michigan (I don't know about your state), it is a misdemeanor, and if the harassment continued, was told to file Criminal Charges.
