The possibility of life imprisonment or capital punishment also applies if the citizen is kidnapped, sexually assaulted, or there is an intent to sexually assault, or an attempt to kill.

These are extreme examples to demonstrate the circumstances in which organized stalking is a capital crime under US Federal Law. But not so extreme that there are no stalking groups currently risking such a charge. In fact, the threat and fact of sexual assault is pretty common.

In the less extreme case, whereby a citizen is not harried to his death, merely prevented from living the normal life of an American citizen, it is still a felony, punishable by a longer prison term than many burglaries, assaults and contraband offences. And nearly ALL stalking activity involving two or more persons acting together, commits this felony.

Even if a lone stalker enlists the help of another for a single part of his stalking campaign against a citizen, a conspiracy to deny that citizen his rights has probably taken place.

The relevant legal text is a lot shorter than this post and is reproduced, below.

       If two or more persons conspire to injure, oppress, threaten, or   intimidate any person in any State, Territory, Commonwealth,   Possession, or District in the free exercise or enjoyment of any   right or privilege secured to him by the Constitution or laws of   the United States, or because of his having so exercised the same;   or     If two or more persons go in disguise on the highway, or on the   premises of another, with intent to prevent or hinder his free   exercise or enjoyment of any right or privilege so secured -     They shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than   ten years, or both; and if death results from the acts committed in   violation of this section or if such acts include kidnapping or an   attempt to kidnap, aggravated sexual abuse or an attempt to commit   aggravated sexual abuse, or an attempt to kill, they shall be fined   under this title or imprisoned for any term of years or for life,   or both, or may be sentenced to death.
The second paragraph makes it obvious that the Congress had the Ku Klux Klan very much in mind when drafting this law; anyone who thinks that they are stalking in a more noble cause, should think again: if you resort to the Klan's methods, your cause is incapable of nobility and you fully deserve to be tarred with precisely the same brush. It is legally impossible to stalk in a good cause. This title is not an anti-racism law: it is a law against denying a citizen his constitutional and legal rights on any pretext whatsoever.
