Can a threat issued during divorce be considered a crime?

A threat issued during a divorce process can be considered a crime. For example if your ex says to you "I'm going to kill you", that can be a crime, or "I'm going to slash your tires.", or repeated telephone calls with threats using the phone or using the mail, all of those can be considered a crime. And repeat performers, you have a greater likelihood of somebody committing a crime with a threat or if the threat is repeated. I'll give you an example of a threat that may be a crime. I have a client whose spouse infiltrated his home computer, and through the home computer busted into his company's computer. She then said to him, "If you don't do what I want, I'm going to push the button, and I'm going to send all your personal emails that have some issues to your partners, to your clients, and to the press."
