It is still dark out, and I get out of bed to give Steve a break. I go out and drive the neighborhood. At about 7:30 am I drive by Keenan\u2019s house, and his car is there. The light in the front room is out. I circle the rest of the block, Steve had a list of the \u201cnormal\u201d state of houses, cars, porch lights, and everything is as his list says to expect it.<\/p>\n<p>Morgan was going to leave at 3:00 pm for her babysitting job in Aspen. She is picking up a coworker on the way, and they will go in together. Before she leaves she tells me about an incident the day before. It was around 7:30 and she was on the back deck watching her puppy play in the grass. Then she heard a noise around the side yard, like a rustling noise, on Ken\u2019s side of the house (this is also right where the Aspen tree is located that we find out that the stalker has been climbing &#8211; but we didn&#8217;t find that out until after Morgan was already dead.) She said she stepped over the fence and went to see what it was. She stood, and waited and watched and never saw anything. \u00a0It was daylight out and she felt she was safe to be there.<\/p>\n<p>First I told her to never do that again. Just to go in the house and let us know. Then I went to tell Steve to tell her the same thing, he had this way of communicating with Morgan when I couldn\u2019t. And then I reviewed the video cameras. There was nothing, and she left to go to work. This was making me so nervous &#8211; all it would take is just a few minutes and someone could grab her&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>Morgan came home at about 11 pm and I met her in the drive as usual. She came in and went straight to her room. Rhonda\u2019s dog started barking at 11:05 and she called to tell us about the barking, and the motion lights above Morgan\u2019s windows being on. She was such a great neighbor, always on the look out, and always calling when she saw something out of the ordinary.<\/p>\n<p>We were pretty much again getting to the point where part of us wanted to ignore everything, and part of us wanted to never stop with the hot pursuit. This time we were all so tired and worn out and we tried ignore and went to sleep.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #800000;\"><i>(Police reports later show the \u201csuspect\u201d was not working this evening. \u00a0On 10.1.2011 he worked from 1:00 am \u2013 6:00 am &amp; then from 6:32 am \u2013 9:34 am\u2026 so he was free this evening to continue his torment)<\/i><\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Today it is September 29, 2012<\/strong> \u2013 And there is a lesson we learned but did not know back then. When Rhonda\u2019s dog would bark I believe now it was for the absolute best reason. He was small and short , and if we had bothered to get down to his perspective we would have seen he was looking across at our house, and seeing up on the roof. But we did not. And Rhonda somehow knew when his barking was different, and more meaningful &#8211; which we also did not fully appreciate at the time.<\/p>\n<p>It is not uncommon for stalking cases to go on for months and even years. Have \u201cquiet times\u201d and \u201cactive times\u201d. We were told to document everything as best we could. I kept a stalking timeline that morphed into different versions. We also had a DVR which had six cameras worth of data from our yard for the last 20 days at all times &#8211; then it would &#8220;write&#8221; over itself. I kept a dayrunner for our \u201cnormal things\u201d and we have been able to download all the texts from all of our phones from that time. It is an enormous amount of data. More than we could ever fully go through. I can recreate days, but I can\u2019t recreate Morgan, and that part is specifically what Steve and I hope to do in the future. Turn all that data into the &#8216;Ah ha&#8217; that stops a bad situation from turning worse. Because if you are in a bad stalking situation the chances of it turning worse are real, and that needs to be stopped.<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>Click here to read about the 62nd day of Morgan\u2019s stalking <a href=\"https:\/\/morgansstalking.com\/?p=1518\">https:\/\/morgansstalking.com\/?p=1518<\/a>\u00a0<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In the morning we try to sleep in, but Morgan\u2019s motion alarm goes off at 7:18 am.
