A meteorologist from Denver is raising concerns about her safety, accusing the city’s district attorney of endangering her life by failing to incarcerate her persistent stalker.

Kylie Bearse, who works with affiliate KDVR, appeared on “Banfield” this Tuesday to recount her harrowing ordeal. For the past three years, she has been relentlessly pursued by a 69-year-old man, despite having secured multiple restraining orders against him.

“I followed all the right steps, believing the legal system and its laws would shield me by ensuring this man was jailed for a certain duration,” Bearse expressed. “It’s incredibly disappointing and disheartening when the system fails, leaving me feeling vulnerable.”

She further explained that her stalker is currently wearing an ankle monitor, which restricts him from approaching her or her workplace. “However, even with this measure, you only receive a brief warning, and the police often can’t respond in time. If this individual decides to act violently, they have the opportunity to do so before help arrives,” Bearse noted.

“But even then, you get a heads up of a couple of minutes, the police can’t get there in time. If this person wanted to be violent, they could do so within that period of time.”

In 2023, Bearse got a temporary restraining order, but the man broke the restraining order more than 50 times in two months. In January of 2024 ,she got a permanent restraining order, and for 18 months, things went quiet, until Sept. 11, when the stalker followed Bearse home.

According to Bearse, Denver District Attorney John Walsh told her that he did not charge the man with felony stalking after violating a protection order by “trapping” Bearse in her garage, instead using a “judgment call” to bring it down to a misdemeanor. Walsh allegedly added that the 18-month gap between violations contributed to it being a misdemeanor.

“And I said, ‘Well, your judgment call is putting my life in danger,’” Bearse told of her conversation with Walsh.

The man was issued a $1,500 fine and had no restrictions placed on his comings and goings. has reached out to the Denver District Attorney’s Office and has not yet received a response.

Bearse is not taking any other legal recourse but wants to speak out in the hopes that things will improve in the future.

“I’m just hoping that, you know, this doesn’t happen to other women going forward,” she said. “This is why I wanted to share my story. I want them to be harder on stalking so that it doesn’t happen to other people.”
