Richard Lawrence Davis, 34, is charged with stalking, a Level 5 felony; stalking, a Level 6 felony; and invasion of privacy, a Class A misdemeanor. He was booked into the Kosciusko County Jail at 11:14 a.m. Tuesday with a bond set at $11,000.
According to court documents, at approximately 3:49 a.m. Sept. 2, central dispatch advised police officers that a man, later identified as Davis, wanted to speak with an officer.
An officer spoke with Davis, who said the victim, who he referred to as his girlfriend, was being taken advantage of by her work management. Davis said he was a stockholder in the company and when the stock market opened in the morning, he’d buy more stocks and take control of the company. After making other “odd statements,” Lawerence ended the call.
Police officers went to the victim’s employment, who verified they had that person as an employee. The victim told police she and Davis were not in a romantic relationship. The victim stated she met Davis 10 years ago at a past employment. She said she believed Davis suffered from mental illness. She told police Davis has tried to contact her on her cell phone numerous times and she blocked his number.
After she blocked him, the victim stated Davis would show up at her work and would contact her family and friends to get in touch with her. The victim stated she feared if Davis kept pursuing her, she would lose her job.
Officers talked to the security guard for the victim’s work and the security guard said a man he believed to be Davis called three times in the previous 24 hours, wondering if the victim was working and if he could get a tour of the facility. The security guard advised Davis if he went to any facility of the employer’s, the police would be contacted. Officers spoke with Davis and notified him if he went to any of the employer’s facilities, he would be arrested.
At 1:27 a.m. Sept. 3, an officer was notified Davis wanted to speak with him in regards to an incident that happened Sept. 2. Davis requested the officer escort the victim to Davis’ hotel room because she needed her rest. According to court documents, Davis made other eratic statements and stated he believed the victim had been kidnapped because she wasn’t answering his calls. After Davis hung up, the officer spoke with the victim’s employment, who said Davis asked them to escort her to his hotel room.
Police officers did a patrol of the area and located Davis’ car within walking distance of the work place. Davis was asked to exit his vehicle. Davis told police he wanted to go to the victim’s work place to see if he could locate the victim’s car, but didn’t because he knew he’d be arrested.
Davis was taken to Parkview Warsaw Hospital for a psychiatric evaluation, according to documents.
On. Sept. 24, the victim contacted central dispatch saying Davis followed her to work. According to court documents, the victim stated she was fearful of what Davis could do to her.
