Gang Stalkers Are Paid Bullys

Besides being cowards, gang stalkers are also bullies.....paid bullies.

Webster's New World Dictionary defines "bully" as: "A person who likes to hurt or frighten those who are smaller or weaker."

Lt. Larry Richard of the Santa Cruz, CA. Police Department has characterized gang stalking as : "Bullying on Steroids"
(Google: "Gang Stalking, 'Bullying on Steroids' aka Organized Stalking")
(Also "Gang Stalking - 'Bullying on Steroids' - Fox News Segment on Organized Stalking")

The news report is significant, because it is rare for gang stalking to be discussed on TV news reports and rare for police officers to publicly mention the term "gang stalking."
A gang stalking victim, Lawrence Guzzino of Salinas, CA. was interviewed for the TV news report.
The reporters indicated that Guzzino's case was not unique.
They characterized gang stalking as a "trend" that involves, among other things, overt stalking to "terrorize' the victim.


OVERT vs COVERT STALKING

Overt stalking is what gang stalkers do....They WANT their victim to see them.
Seeing their stalkers is part of the intimidation process..it's part of the "terrorizing" that the criminals who engage in this type of stalking want to inflict on their "targeted individuals"

Covert stalking is what "one-on-one' stalkers do....They do NOT want their victim to see them.
Single stalkers, aka "one-on-one" stalkers are usually people who are known to the victim.
Ex-wives, ex-husbands, ex-boyfriends, ex-girlfriends, ex-employers etc, are usually the ones who engage in "one-on-one" stalking, and police departments usually take this type of stalking very seriously.
With the help of local police, a victim of a single stalker can obtain a Restraining Order which will usually keep the ex-husband, wife, boyfriend, or girlfriend from coming within a certain distance from the stalking victim.

However, victims of Gang Stalking can't get Restraining Orders, because they usually don't KNOW the names of the strangers who are stalking them.

When victims of gang stalking go to the police for help, they are often advised to "see a doctor", or are asked "Have you told your doctor about this?"

Single-stalker victims going to the police to file a report are treated with respect and courtesy.

Multiple-stalker victims going to the police to file a report are usually treated as if they were "crazy" or being paranoid,  and often told that "a group of total strangers would not be doing that to you."

When single-stalker victims contact the U.S. Justice Department-funded Office for Victims of Crime (OVC), they are given assistance, including referrals to other agencies, stalking victim support groups, and more.

When "multi-stalker" victims contact the Office for Victims of Crime, they are told that "OVC does not provide any direct assistance of victims of multi-stalker incidents."

How many stalking victims call OVC to report multiple stalkers?

Thousands every month, according to Freedom Of Information Act (FOIA) documents obtained by New York City attorney Keith Labella.
(Google :"Gang Stalking: New DOJ-FOIA Documents Prove DOJ Knows the Truth")

Labella filed his FOIA request based on conversations he had with OVC about how  many stalking victims calling OVC were reporting multiple stalkers.

In a 2009, the  United States Justice Department published a Special Report, "Stalking Victimization in the United States"
(Pub # NCJ  224527)
(Google: "Stalking Victimization in the United States")
In this DOJ survey,  more than 5 million Americans reported being stalked within the 12-month survey period.
However, according to DOJ, only 180,000 stalking victims reported multiple stalkers (More than 3 stalkers)
Keith Labella's FOIA request documents proved that DOJ was lying about the number of stalking victims who reported multiple stalkers during the 12-month survey period.

The actual figure wasn't 180,000 multi-stalker victims...it was more like 500,000 stalking victims reporting multiple stalkers.
Many stalking victims reported 20, 30 or more stalkers.

Why would the U.S. Justice Department not want the American people to know the true extent of this type of stalking?

Could it be because DOJ itself is involved in this type of stalking?
