Jodi?s Voice was set up out of tragedy. It was named after?Jodi Sanderholm, who was murdered by a stalker that had been watching her for ten years. Jodi was only 19 when she died ? which meant she had been watched by her killer since she was only nine years old.
Sadly, this is commonplace among stalking victims. Many victims begin being stalked when they are young. In Canada, for example,?11% of women aged 15 and older have been stalked. In the U.S.,?14 in every 1,000 women of 18 and above are victims of stalking.
Jodi’s Voice aims to change the law on stalking. In this video, I share why 12for12k is trying to help Jodi’s Voice change the law on stalking and why the current laws are so outdated.
