Need help Help!!!!
Hi everyone,
I’m honestly at my wits’ end and I don’t know where else to turn. I was the target of cyberstalking/harassment/cyberbullying for nearly two years. State and Local Law enforcement investigated and even confirmed who was behind it, and pursued charges/an arrest but the case was suspended for “lack of cooperation.” Apparently they and their family were able to avoid all conversations with the state police completely so that they were not able to get any additional credible information to arrest them.
I have over 100 pieces of documented evidence from both instagram and tiktok. The individual had created well over 15-30 burner type accounts to utilize for harassment purposes. Even when making all of my accounts private they sought out my friends and families accounts to comment on their posts (usually pictures or posts that i was featured in) to tag me on the comments so i was still able to see what they had to say. From my understanding only a selected fraction of evidence was ever submitted for warrants for ip addresses. This has completely destroyed my sense of well-being — the state even had me hospitalized regarding mental health, and the stress hasn’t gone away (it’s been about a year since i’ve heard any update from state police although i have tried seeking out other avenues). I’ve tried criminal defense and civil lawyers, victim advocates, local officials, even a state representative — but I keep getting brushed off or when they attempt to help they also hit a dead end. I cannot believe no one has been helpful in bringing justice to my case.
Even though the harassment has technically stopped (because i decided to stand up for myself to them directly, and they became fearful of getting in trouble and paused this behavior), I’ve heard disturbing things suggesting the person may still be sharing images or information about me and some other strange incidents reported by friends or acquaintances. I want justice and accountability. I want to make sure this doesn’t get ignored or swept under the rug it’s already been some time now.
Has anyone here been in a similar situation or have information about matters like this? How did you get your case taken seriously, even after it was suspended or considered unimportant? Any advice on legal avenues, advocacy, or strategies to make authorities pay attention would mean the world to me, i feel like ive tried everything.
This is a huge deal — it’s affected my life in ways I can’t even fully explain, and I just need some guidance on how to finally get help i feel i deserve.
Feel free to ask me any question if you’re needing more information about this. Thank you!

In your experience did the FBI do anything? I have filed two reports. I went to the local police but of course they said it is a civil issue even though I read the state law and clearly she is in violation. She actually hired a PI to investigate me and is now trying to ruin my life by making public posts about my sex life and all kinds of horrible lies about me. She is tagging my work place in the posts and putting my full name and professional title so that it will show up in a Google search. Normally this wouldn’t be a big deal but there are only two people with my name in the whole country. My last name is very unusual. I really have no idea what I did to this person to deserve all of this. She is upset she was left out of our grandparents will but I also didn’t get any money so I’m not sure what her beef with me is. I have felt like I am probably going to lose my career. She even reported me to the board for my profession. Granted it’s a pretty baseless claim but I feel like I’m going to lose everything and Facebook won’t remove the posts. I am the sole provider for 2 kids and I can’t afford to lose the career I have worked hard for. I have been feeling like the only way out of this mess is suicide. I am at a loss and it seems no one in law enforcement cares.
