Duff, Boyfriend Seek Restraining Orders
“Singer-actress Hilary Duff and her boyfriend, Good Charlotte singer Joel Madden, are seeking restraining orders against two men they claim are stalking them.
Duff, 19, and Madden, 27, filed requests in Superior Court on Thursday for protection from David Joseph Klein, 50, and a man identified by first name as Max, according to court papers.
The documents claim that Max “Doe” is a 19-year-old Russian immigrant who came to Los Angeles for “the sole purpose of meeting and becoming romantically involved” with Duff, a multi-platinum recording artist and former star of TV’s “Lizzie McGuire.”
Can you imagine how creepy it would be to be stalked? You hear stories like this all the time and you have to wonder if a restraining order will have any effect at all? Sometimes it is good to be a nobody!
How to recognize a stalker...
Quite often you wouldn’t recognize one if they walked by you on the street. But here is something frightening, “Stalkers have higher intelligence than other criminals.”
Types of stalkers
“Psychologists tend to group stalkers into two categories: psychotic and nonpsychotic. Many stalkers have pre-existing psychotic disorders such as delusional disorder, schizoaffective disorder, or schizophrenia. Most stalkers are nonpsychotic and exhibit disorders such as major depression, adjustment disorder, or substance dependence, as well as a variety of Axis II personality disorders, such as antisocial, avoidant, borderline, dependent, narcissistic, or paranoid. The nonpsychotic stalkers’ pursuit of victims can be influenced by various psychological factors, including anger and hostility, projection of blame, obsession, dependency, minimization and denial, and jealousy.”
This is just one movie that I found on the topic. It’s a pretty scary world out there!
