Los Angeles County prosecutors last week brought the first case under the statute against a 50-year-old security guard who allegedly went online to provoke the rape of a 28-year-old woman who had rejected his advances. Prosecutors said the jailed suspect, Gary Steven Dellapenta, posted messages under the unidentified woman's name. The notes, which appeared in America Online chat rooms and on the Net, said the woman had an unfulfilled sexual fantasy of being raped. The posts included her name, address, phone number, and instructions for disarming her home-security system, prosecutors said. At various times since the posts began early last year, six men did show up at the woman's apartment in North Hollywood, police said. They didn't gain entry, however. Dellapenta, first arrested in November, was charged with stalking; using a computer to commit fraud, deceive or extort; and solicitation to commit sexual assault, charges that could bring seven years in prison. Dellapenta has pleaded not guilty and is being held in lieu of $300,000 bail.

His identity isn't known, but he says he became infatuated with a young woman named Julie when she rented a movie in the Los Angeles video store where he works. He looked up her address on her video account, broke into her apartment, where she lives alone, and installed a voyeur cam in her bedroom that streams video directly to his website, ForTheLoveofJulie.com

The cyberstalker has threatened to rape and kill her. "He told people that I was on drugs, that I was looking for sex," said Deborah, not her real name. "He enlisted (his) Internet friends to harass me." Frightening scenarios like this are increasingly common as more people use the Internet and blindly trust those they meet online. And too often, untrained police officers do not address the situation as they should. Advocacy groups say that when victims report their situation to authorities, a frequent response is "turn off your computer." "They are scared out of their mind and no one takes them seriously," said Parry Aftab, executive director of the Internet safety group

A Chilly Response To 'Patriot II' Outline of the proposed Domestic Security Enhancement Act of 2003. Wired News http://www.wired.com/politics/law/news/2003/02/57636

The legislation , nicknamed Patriot II, would broadly expand the government's surveillance and detention powers. Among other measures, it calls for the creation of a terrorist DNA database and allows the attorney general to revoke citizenship of those who provide "material support" to terrorist groups. Privacy advocates said the bill "gutted the Fourth Amendment," while prominent Democratic senators, including Patrick Leahy, ranking Democratic member of the Senate Judiciary Committee, immediately chastised the administration for its secrecy. Despite assurances to lawmakers that no bill was in the works, the Justice Department internally circulated a confidential 120-page summary and text of the Domestic Security and Enhancement Act in early January.

That's what industry experts are asking about the Pentagon's proposed Total Information Awareness System , which, according to the proposal (PDF), would aggregate on "an unprecedented scale" credit card, medical, school and travel records. Critics say looking for terrorists by rooting around in private, commercial databases of Americans' personal information violates the Fourth Amendment not to mention citizens' privacy. Some in the industry even refuse to work on the project on ethical grounds. While the proposal makes clear that designing such databases would require "revolutionary new technology," its goal is to create a working system to hand to law enforcement and intelligence agencies. The Total Information Awareness System and related efforts received $137 million in government funding for the 2003 fiscal year. It is the signature project of the
