“Starting around 2016, Winters began stalking men online and in person, including showing up at victims’ homes and sending them pictures of their residences.
“Winters would also find their personal information and send angry messages. He reportedly threatened to kill specific victims and gay men generally, saying that he wanted to make national headlines.
“At one point, Winters visited one victim’s workplace, shattered a window and threw a trashcan onto their car.
“The release said that Winters’s obsessive harassment campaign terrified many people, forcing some to move or take other self-protective measures.”
