Stalking is a persistent and complex crime to manage in the Netherlands, with prior reports pointing to delayed responses, limited enforcement, and challenges in inter-agency collaboration. Victims often disengage from the system due to a lack of trust, while professionals face procedural and structural barriers that hinder timely intervention. This study examines how police officers and victim support personnel perceive the current handling of stalking cases. Using a systems-informed, qualitative approach, it draws on semi-structured interviews and thematic analysis to explore how these actors navigate their roles, interact with one another, and respond to institutional challenges. The analysis identified three interlocking themes: a fragmented system in which evidentiary thresholds delay protection, case handovers that dissolve oversight, and limited expertise shaping inconsistent recognition of stalking. Together, these insights offer an overview of professional perspectives and highlight concrete opportunities for improving coordination, consistency, and outcomes in stalking case management.
