How did her stalker always know right when Morgan came home? He always started his tapping and banging on her window within 15 minutes of her arriving at her house. This is a very important question as the Sheriff’s Patrol Officers later on believed it had to be someone in our neighborhood that could see her coming home. The Sheriff’s suggested that we not speak to our neighbors about what was happening, in order to give them a better chance of catching this stalker off-guard if he was in our neighborhood…the problem with this tactic is that if more people in your neighborhood know, the more eyes you have watching out for you, it makes it harder on the criminal to sneak around, and it is easier to catch the criminal, but we did not know at the time so we took the Patrol Officer’s suggestion and tried to keep it quiet for the time being.
A little later on when we captured the first picture of the stalker and there were Sheriff’s Patrol Officers parked all around our house not all the neighbors could be kept in the dark any longer. One of them just stormed up our driveway and demanded to know what was going on. He also stopped and spoke with one of the officers. So a couple of them did find out, which was good because right after that happened we came the closest (in my opinion) to catching the stalker…but you will read about that on August 29th.
In the morning, during breakfast, Morgan reminded us to check the windows outside her room to see if anything could be rubbing up against them. The three of us all went to go look outside and to our surprise realize nothing, not a branch or anything, could be tapping on the windows, so now we are all very concerned…Morgan said she will let us know if it happens again. She was pretty upset and decides to go hang out with friends until later around 10:00 pm.
