Call the police again. Every time she contacts you, make a record of it and block her. Unfortunately you're correct that you can't get a restraining order in NJ unless you are or were married, dating, screwing, or cohabitating with the other person. Aside from suing her for damages, the only legal way to get her to stop is if they charge her with harassment (2C:33-4) or something worse if applicable.

How can I get them to do that? Just keep filing harassment complaints?

Something like this happened to me (a friend) and the police told us that we couldn’t file a complaint because my other friend kept responding to the texts (she’s confrontational). That was in Pennsylvania. Not sure where you are, but basically leaving them unanswered would’ve helped us.

Good on you for letting people know. Too many people have no idea about this.
