I live in the state of Colorado:
About a year ago a co-worker and I had a one night fling. After finding out he was married I avoided him at all costs. He emailed me continuosly at work trying to pursue more and I've told him several times to leave me alone. First mistake I made was deleted all of his emails. I never reported him to Hr for fear of losing my job and for fear of putting him out of a job when he had 4 kids to feed. I did however tell a co-worker (a mutual friend of ours) of what was happening and showed her the emails that he wrote. He then started to email her and tried to make her the middle man to find out information about me. She then told him to leave her out of it. This guy has been displaying obsessed behavior.
A month ago I found out he was accepted to the police academy so I figured I would be rid of him for good. His last day was yesterday and knowing the time I get off work he used the company email to send me a sexually explicit greeting card.
My question is this:
1) what legal recourse can I take to make sure this guy doesn't come after me?
2) Will Hr do anything to this guy after he has quit?
3) How can I be sure that my postion at my company will still be safe?
I'm in desperate need here, I now fear for my life and my job. I feel that this man will be currupt as an authority figure. I plan to take this down to Hr tomorrow morning but don't know if that will be the right thing to do. Thanks to any advice out there!
