What are the elements of a stalking claim?

A reasonable inference as to each of these elements can be drawn from the facts alleged in the information. Defendant obviously placed himself on the complainant's fire escape intentionally, and not by accident. And it is inconceivable that there could have been a legitimate purpose to this conduct other than to spy on, attempt to assert his control over, or otherwise terrorize the complainant. People v. Wong, 3 Misc.3d 274, 776 N.Y.S.2d 194 (Crim Ct 2004) (liability under the stalking statute arises from defendant's repetitive trespass upon the complainant's privacy).
