LE 211 Chapter 7: TRRAC #1
Document Summary
Topic sentence: the issue is whether beth lockwood was being surveillanced by her former boyfriend, david green at their local gym while she was attending her aerobics class. Rule statement: the element of surveillance is satisfied when the stalker remains present outside the place occupied by the victim. Also, including that a victim may be subjected to as much, or more harm and harassment by being placed under surveillance from within a separate portion of a large structure as from outside the structure. Rule proof: illinois courts enforced the rule of surveillance as being outside the building of where the victim is, but also within the same primary structure that is also distinct from the place being occupied by the victim. In people v. elliot, the courts upheld a guilty conviction in which the defendant was inside the same building, but outside the ice rink where his ex-girlfriend had her skating lessons.
