Stalking in the Second Degree (NY PL 120.55) is the first felony grade of Stalking charges that Rochester prosecutors can bring, and effectively means that you’ve engaged in stalking behavior using a firearm or other dangerous weapon, targeted a victim under the age of 14, or have previous convictions for one of several offenses that raise the grade of your Stalking charge.
Stalking in the Second Degree is a class E felony, with a minimum one year sentence and a maximum of four years in prison if you’re convicted.
Any felony conviction will affect your life, and not for the better.
Potential employers will refuse to consider you as a job applicant, housing options will be restricted, and a variety of opportunities will vanish for you.
