Alderman wants explanation for low arrest rates on cyberstalking, electronic harassment complaints – Chicago Tribune/Yahoo

Of 824 domestic-related electronic harassment and cyberstalking complaints last year, only nine — slightly more than 1 percent — resulted in an arrest. It’s an arrest rate more than 15 times lower than other domestic crimes in 2023, including battery and order of protection violations. Of more commonly reported crimes, only those involving deception — such as pickpocketing, unauthorized credit card use and confidence games — have lower arrest rates.
