36-year-old Kristie Love was jailed on June 6th for stalking. Alexis Howard contacted officers at the South Precinct, telling them that Love was actively following her, so she drove to the police precinct for safety. Howard told officers that she knew of Love but did not know her personally. Howard also stated that she used to date and is still friends with the father of Love’s child, Deshon. Alexis also showed footage from May 31st, showing Love outside her apartment and knocking on several of the neighbor’s doors, asking for Howard by name. Howard told officers that Love has no reason to know where she lives or what car she drives but thinks she has been following and spying on Deshon to get information about her.
On June 6th, Howard was leaving her residence for an appointment when she saw Love pulling into her apartment complex, driving a white vehicle speeding up to get behind her. As Howard continued to go to her appointment, she noticed Love still following her. As they stopped at a red light, Love pulled up next to Howard, rolled her window down, and attempted to talk to her. Howard avoided contact with Love but noticed as they kept driving that Love was still tailgating her. Howard called the police and was directed to the precinct, but Love followed her into the front parking lot, which was caught on precinct cameras. Love exited her vehicle and knocked on Howard’s driver’s window but left the scene to avoid contact with officers as they exited the precinct. Howard told officers that she felt her life was in danger and was seeking a stalking warrant. A warrant was issued, and Love was taken into custody for stalking on June 9th.
Kristie L. Love of Vista LN in Nashville, TN, was booked into the Metro Nashville Jail on June 9th, charged with stalking. A judicial commissioner set her bond at $3,500, and the Davidson County Sheriff’s Office gave her pre-trial release from their facility.
