Answer: (B)

Harassment in the second degree is defined by two elements: a course of conduct consisting of two or more acts over time, with the intent to harass, annoy, or alarm another person, or to cause fear of physical injury. The statement “Repeatedly harass or cause fear of PI” matches this exactly, capturing both the repeated nature and the fear of physical injury, which is what makes it a misdemeanor level offense. The other options describe different offenses or levels. Harassment that’s a violation usually involves a single act rather than a repeated pattern. Aggravated Harassment adds more serious elements, such as explicit threats or actions causing greater harm, making it a distinct, typically more serious charge. Public Lewdness involves entirely different conduct unrelated to harassing someone or causing fear.
