           On the morning of October 27, 2013, Gamlet Sarkisyan had been convicted of multiple cases of assault and harassment. Over the passed six months, Gamlet, a forty-eight year old presumably Armenian man, had been stalking a married woman as if she were his prey. The had met previously in April, at an appraiser course in Glendale, where the criminal resides. After their first encounter, Sarkisyan became obsessed and began to stalk the thirty-eight year old woman. He flourished her with redundant presents and tried many mindless ways of attaining her attention, but to no avail. He has seriously spooked the victim and her family, to the point where a restraining order was set out. Sarkisyan disregarded the restraining order and broke into the innocent woman’s house to “profess his love for her.” He crawled into her private property at night through an unlocked window. Sarkisyan did not stop there; he continued to break into her house and cause bodily harm and injuries all over her arms and hands. Sarkisyan attempted to “hit the rear sides of her vehicle” and “demanded” for her to speak to him. Sarkisyan pleaded not guilty to all charges and is now sitting in prison with a $400,000 bail.
          The world has become a treacherous place, where restraining orders cannot even perform its initial duty and obligation. Everyone should be aware of their surroundings in order to prevent stalkers. Not everyone is in their right mind and one must not approach everyone. Being precautious and smart excludes one from been stalked as “prey.”
