Stalker Defense Attorney | Former Partner Allegation Resolved with a non Prosecution Outcome

Allegations involving stalking in Washington D.C. often arise from emotionally charged interpersonal disputes, and the legal consequences can be severe because D.C. treats repeated, unwanted conduct that causes fear or emotional distress as a criminal offense under D.C. Code § 22-3133. In this case, a defense attorney in Washington D.C. represented a client who was accused by a former romantic partner of engaging in stalking behavior after sending a single personal letter. Although the accusation triggered a police investigation, the attorney demonstrated that the conduct did not meet the legal threshold for a stalking offense, which under D.C. law requires a course of conduct composed of two or more acts. By presenting structured evidence, clarifying the intent behind the communication, and emphasizing the absence of any pattern of harassment, the attorney secured a Non Prosecution outcome, meaning prosecutors declined to file formal charges.
