His "pestering" was, in the vernacular, a shakedown. In the Law, "In order to obtain a conviction for extortion, the prosecution will need to show that the defendant: Willfully intended to take something of value (money, property, etc.) from another person/entity, and. Attempted to do so or did so via threats, the use of force, or the instillation of fear in the victim."
Cameras and monitors were installed for a reason. There were threats, and there was fear.
Perhaps a Lawyer on this site can point out the exact Chapter and Section in the Penal Code that applies to the actions of this perpetrator. I am always open to learning new things.
