[NARRATIVE #1 on January 05, 2026]
On 01/05/2026 at approximately 08:47 hours, Deputy Z. Harter-Ray #526, was dispatched on a phone call in reference to harassment.
The complainant, [VICTIM #1], stated that she has already made a report, but wanted to make another report. She stated that she has been being harassed by a Daniel Hoppe on the social media platform TikTok. She stated that Daniel goes by the username [REDACTED] and has been posting TikToks about her and her late husband. She stated that he is not going to let it rest and is going to keep coming after her.
[VICTIM #1] stated that she asked how to get a protection order. I advised her to gather the evidence she already has and to take it to North Georgia Mountain Crisis Network to apply for a protection order.
I provided her with my name, badge number, and the case number.

[NARRATIVE #2 on May 01, 2026]
On Friday, May 1, 2026, at approximately 1155, I received an e-mail from Ms. [VICTIM #1]. I did not read this e-mail until Monday, May 4, 2026.
The exact wording on the e-mail is as follows: He really isn’t stopping. Today he decided to come in a live where I was. I ended up leaving shortly after he got there because he stated he could be there. I’m just over this. He thinks he doesn’t have to obey the law and no matter what I do he is continuing in someway shape or form trying to intimidate, mock or mess with me. In the video talking about the court stuff he literally played one of the songs he used in one of the videos he was harassing me with back in December. This man literally thinks he is above the law and any judge!”
There are five attachments to the email Ms. [VICTIM #1] sent. One attachement reads. “I hope some of you learn a lesson from Aldos mistakes. If you harass someone because of someone else’s actions, you will end up like aldo, losing his PO and getting slapped with 9 charges in 2 different states. Keep that in mind.” There is an emoji blowing a kiss at the end of the statement. Playing in the background is a quote from a Wyatt Earp movie, “Don’t any of you have the guts to play for blood. I’m your huckleberry.” and the intro to Paint it Black by The Rolling Stones is also playing.
There is also a screen shot of Hoppe (Mr. Aldo) with the following quote, “three laugh till you cry emojis like they keep telling themselves I made a mistake but did I though? Smiling Emoji it didn’t mattter to me if I won or lost. I had another goal and THAT is something they will never understand until it’s too late. Laugh till you cry emoji”
There is a screen shot of the TIK TOK live chat room. There are two recordings from the TIK TOK live chat room with Hoppe saying its a protective order not a restraining order. This is the Live room Ms. [VICTIM #1] refers to.
I then made a call to Ms. [VICTIM #1] to clarify when this interaction happened. I asked Mrs. [VICTIM #1] when this occurred with the live videos she sent and she could not find the exact times but stated it happened right before she emailed them to me. The e-mail came to me on Friday, May 1, 2026 at 1155.
The date and time this occurred is after I received the final order of protection from [REDACTED] and in that order it is specified under part three of other orders, other orders necessary for the safety of the protected person: Defendant shall not utilize social media in any way to make direct or indirect contact with the plaintiff, this document has also been sealed and there is a hand written statement saying neither party shall release any information on documents associated with this case (page three of final order).
The nunc pro tuncof final order of protection was sent to me on 04/24/2026 by [REDACTED], Trial Court Clerk II from Rice County District Court in Lyons, KS. The temporary order of protection referenced in case number 2601-256 was served to Hoppe on January 6, 2026.
Hoppe has been court ordered not to have contact or contact via other parties since January 6, 2026. Ms. [VICTIM #1] has reported several instances of what she believes are violations of protective orders since the first order has been signed. These instances include a book on grief sent to Ms. [VICTIM #1], references to protective orders by those who know Hoppe in what can only be described as an “online capacity”.
No warrants were taken on Hoppe for these offenses, because no one can prove who actually sent the book and no one can say that Hoppe made anyone speak of the protective orders. The final order states Hoppe is not to use social media to make any contact with Ms. [VICTIM #1] and neither party shall release any information on court documents of this case.
By Hoppe using social media, TIK TOK, and making contact with Ms. [VICTIM #1], I am applying for a warrant on Hoppe through the Gilmer County Magistrate Court for Aggravated Stalking.
