The Predatory Stalker

Predatory stalking is the most dangerous and deliberate form of stalking. In this episode, we discuss stalking rooted in entitlement, power, and control where the behavior is intentional from the beginning.Victims are often strangers, and stalking may involve surveillance, targeting, and information-gathering that can escalate into sexual violence. We explain why this type of stalking must always be taken seriously and why survivors’ instincts are critical to safety.This episode centers accountability, affirms survivor experiences, and underscores that predatory stalking is never about attraction it is about power and control.Understanding this pattern helps survivors trust their instincts and prioritize safety.Stalking Risk Profile.
