As this continued, Pratt called the police for the first time, but at that point in time, there was little the police could do, as Macchione didn't know where she worked or where she lived and, therefore, at that point, wasn't considered a serious threat. Eventually, the cyber-stalking intensified and Macchione's messages started to contain veiled threats against her (but nothing outright yet.) Some messages also contained perverted sexual fantasies involving BDSM and other things of that nature.

Over time, however, Macchione's threats of violence and desire to hurt Kristen soon became more overt. He began showing up at Kristen's work and at the college campus where she attended classes. Becoming afraid for her life, she started to alter her appearance, which ultimately did little to hinder Macchione's stalking.

Eventually, patrol officer Mark Conway recovered a backpack belonging to Macchione containing a number of unreleased videos where he angrily rants at Kristen and makes it more than apparent that he was planning to kill her. Conway presented the videos to the state attorney, and this was enough to get Macchione arrested and formally convicted of cyber-stalking and attempted murder. He was sentenced to four years in prison.
