The purpose of this study is to analyze the crime of stalking focusing on the victim. Starting from the analysis of published literature on stalking, we investigated 10 judiciary documentations on stalking cases in which an intimate relationship between the offender and the victim is present. The aim of this study is to identify the general traits of those which could be more susceptible to become a stalking victim. Finally, early experiences of abuse and maltreatment are identified as one of the main predictive risk factors for the propensity to start and abide in a violent intimate relationship. The role of relationship models and schemes in this propensity are also discussed.

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to analyze the crime of stalking focusing on the victim. Starting from the analysis of published literature on stalking, we investigated 10 judiciary documentations on stalking cases in which an intimate relationship between the offender and the victim is present. The aim of this study is to identify the general traits of those which could be more susceptible to become a stalking victim. Finally, early experiences of abuse and maltreatment are identified as one of the main predictive risk factors for the propensity to start and abide in a violent intimate relationship. The role of relationship models and schemes in this propensity are also discussed.
