A Colorado man was arrested on August 25 for allegedly cyberstalking three individuals and obstructing justice.
John B. Hart, 53, of Louisville, is accused of engaging in a cyberstalking campaign to harass and intimidate his former girlfriend, Jane Doe 1; her former partner, John Doe 1; and her then-partner, John Doe 2. Hart allegedly frequently posed as John Doe 1 while he targeted Jane Doe 1 and John Doe 2.
He also allegedly repeatedly targeted himself, typically while posing as John Doe 1. Hart is accused of falsely reporting to Jane Doe 1, John Doe 1’s employer, local law enforcement, federal law enforcement, and the family courts that John Doe 1 was responsible for the conduct and posed a genuine and serious threat to Hart and others.
Two days after being interviewed by federal investigators, Hart allegedly deleted one of his personal email accounts.
If convicted, Hart faces five years in prison on each count of cyberstalking and 20 years for obstruction.
The FBI is investigating the case.
