It was not until the late 1980s that tracking was recognized by state law and federal law, but until the actress Rebecca Shaeffer was killed. Shepherd lived in California during her murder. She was murdered by Robert John Baldo, a two-year stalker. Before tracking the law, he is tagged with an obsessed fan. In front of state or federal legislators, the behavior of actresses was killed to judge whether anti - tracking law is necessary.
Then, in 1989, the actress Rebecca Schaefer was killed by anxious fans, and the word "pursuit" was kicked out into the American consciousness. Many people in the entertainment industry are irritated and angry. Celebrities have endured the behavior of inappropriate fans for many years and I do not know how to manage it. 7 years ago, the actress Teresa Saldana overcame the brutal attack of enthusiastic fans, but this is simply due to the involvement of passers-by. In response to the killing of Rebecca Schaeffer, the Personal Managers Conference hosted a panel discussion to address customer safety issues. Panelists include the representatives of Los Angeles Police, Federal Bureau of Investigation, and Gavin de Becker. Although FBI and the Los Angeles police know little about how to deal with stalker knowledge, Debeck talked about his office strategy to protect customers' safety for about 90 minutes. Clearly there is an effective anti-violence strategy, but I can not clearly understand how to implement these strategies within the Los Angeles police.
Murder of actress Teresa Saldana in 1982, massacre of Richard Farley in 1988, killing of actress of Rebecca in 1989, and for many eye-catching stalking cases in California state including California state in 1990. A country that committed the first stalker crime in the United States. Shepher, and five Orange County pursuit murders were also in 1989. The first stalking prevention law in the United States, section 646.9 of the California Penal Code, was proposed and proposed by John Watson, the judge of the Orange County Court. Watson and the US Congressional Deadwa introduced the law in 1990. Also in 1990, the Los Angeles Police Department (Los Angeles Police Department) established the first threat management department in the United States, founded by Los Angeles Police Chief Robert Martin.
