What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Washington. In my last post, I mentioned I was feeling suicidal because an ex-boyfriend accused me of stalking him, twice. Last night I called his home and left a message on his answering machine saying, "This is an emergency." I then said I was suicidal with a plan. I asked him to call 9-1-1 for me to send an ambulance to my house to take me to a mental hospital, even after a detective from his state told me on the phone in a voicemail that he would get a warrant for my arrest if I ever contacted him or the chief of the county police again. I then called 9-1-1 and told the operator the situation. I went into an emergency room last night, and as far as I know, I am not in any legal trouble. The emergency room discharged me this morning after deciding I was not a threat to myself or others. I never threatened the accuser. To me, the conundrum is about stalking. They say a stalker is so desperate to talk to the supposed victim that he or she would do anything, criminal or not, just to speak to him or her. But what I am trying to tell you about is that I did not stalk the accuser. None of my behavior met any of the criteria for federal stalking laws. I am not a danger to anyone. I have no weapons. We are in different states. What I believe is his motive, as of right now, is a reputation. He has been arrested before on drug charges. I have no criminal record. But I am still fearful that the police will get a warrant for my arrest. All I want to know is what to say if they ever come around to arrest me. I think I would assure them I am not a danger, which would have to be true, that I have no intention of contacting them, ever again, which I do not, and that I am completely innocent and was falsely accused of a crime. More likely, I would not speak to the police and wait for a lawyer to come. But not that this is ever going to happen. I am severely heartbroken right now, and I just want the matter to be resolved.
