The Woonsocket man was charged with stalking a different victim in 2021, according to the district attorney's office.
BOSTON, MA — A Woonsocket man was charged with waging a year-and-a-half-long campaign of stalking and harassment against a Boston woman.
Space Vixaisak, 23, was arraigned in the Roxbury Division of Boston Municipal Court on charges of stalking and violating a harassment prevention order, the Suffolk County District Attorney's Office said in a media release.
"Judge Nicholas Brandt ordered Vixaisak to abide by the existing harassment prevention order and to have no contact with the victim or her family," the release said.

In December, "Boston police took a walk-in report from a 20-year-old woman regarding an ongoing cyberstalking incident," according to the release.
The woman told officers that an individual known online as 'Space Vegas' had been harassing her since February 2025 across multiple social media platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Snapchat and Facebook," the release said.

The woman maintained she had never met or had interacted with her stalker, who was later identified as Vixaisak, according to the release.
"Vixaisak continually messaged the victim over multiple social media platforms saying, 'I need you to love me and let me love you,'" the release said, and the woman "told officers she blocked more than 700 accounts on TikTok and more than 200 accounts on Instagram believed to be operated by Vixaisak. Boston police used location data from the various accounts created by Vixaisak to confirm his name and address."
Vixaisak also somehow got his hands on the woman's personal phone number, her parents’ phone numbers, her home address and the location of her school, and went so far as to create a fake profile of the woman to gather personal information about her from a friend, according to the release.
Screenshots of messages from Vixaisak to the woman showed him saying, “I told you to love me … now you’re going to have to watch your back every time,” and writing to her family, "Hey tell your daughter. Her last days are coming for her … if she doesn’t love me or I’ll find her,” per the release.
The woman obtained a harassment prevention order in January, according to the release, but Vixaisak continued to contact the her daily.
"Vixaisak was charged with cyber stalking a different victim in Rhode Island in 2021 and served one year of probation with enrollment in a mental health program," the release said.
“Social media is a vital part of many lives in our digitalized society and it can be used in positive ways or, as the facts indicate here, in unsettling and disturbing ways. Our citizens are entitled to peaceful existence in all aspects of their lives, including their engagement with social media,” District Attorney Kevin Hayden said in the release.
