State, 712 So.2d 1259, 1260-61 (Fla. 1st DCA 1998) (holding that the "harassment" element of crime of stalking requires State to prove defendant's acts caused substantial emotional distress, not that defendant intended to cause substantial emotional distress); Seese v.

Std. J. Inst. 8.7(b) (Crim.) (providing: " 'Maliciously' means wrongfully, intentionally, and without legal justification or excuse").
