\n<\/a>\u00a0Morgan is alone tonight – her friend does not sleep over. Steve & I are there, but we are in our room on the other end of the house. Morgan\u2019s phone is busy just past midnight this morning. Not the first time in her life, she is a twenty-year-old, young woman, but this is out of character considering the past few months. \u00a0At 2 seconds past 12 a person she does not know texts her, it turns out to be quite innocent.\u00a0 Her friend Nathan, who is just back from Australia, does not have a phone yet, and asked Morgan if he could give another friend her number until he got his own phone, and this friend might be texting, it was just that neither Nathan nor Morgan thought it would be at midnight!<\/p>\n

Morgan calls him back and tries to put him in touch with Nathan, but gives up and goes back to sleep.\u00a0 Another friend of Morgan\u2019s texts at 12:14 AM and teases her about not lending him her sweater earlier.\u00a0 Morgan answers him and he keeps going on with his texting, but she stops conversing and goes back to sleep.\u00a0 Unfortunately the stalker must have been outside, and because it seemed he had seen her light on and heard conversation he is now angry.\u00a0 Morgan thinks this because there is very loud banging at random intervals.\u00a0 Once it starts up Morgan covers her head with a pillow, and hopes he stops.<\/p>\n

As we will find out next year, at 12:25 AM status updates are happening on facebook accounts.\u00a0 Hannah Hurlocker (?’s friend) happens to be staying with ? just up the street and her wall updates with \u201cugh I already called you and told you member?\u201d\u00a0 a minute later Stephen says, \u201cOh yeah my bad sorry\u201d\u00a0 Hannah answers, \u201cits osay\u201d\u00a0 Stephen expands on his answer \u201cOh yeah my bad sorry But u didn\u2019t tell me what was going on u just asked me to Drop everything and come get you that\u2019s it\u201d\u00a0 at 12:27 AM Hannah tells him, \u201cenough said\u201d<\/p>\n

Also at 12:27 Morgan\u2019s phone rings she answers and hangs up from under her pillow.\u00a0 It was yet another friend \u201cdrunk dialing\u201d her.\u00a0 He will call to apologize later in the day.<\/p>\n

Morgan gives up on sleep, and she gives up on her stalker outside giving up for the night – she knows he won’t stop, so in a very strange move for Morgan, she gathers up clothes and comes into our bathroom with her puppy to dress.\u00a0 I hear her and come in to see what is wrong.\u00a0 Morgan can\u2019t explain it, but feels like something is really wrong.\u00a0 Her crazy stalker has been banging some wretched beat on her window and she is afraid he will be at it all night, so she slipped out of the room and came into our bathroom to change.\u00a0 And now she wants to go to her friend\u2019s grandmother\u2019s house for the rest of the night.\u00a0 She has had a standing invitation, and has only used it a few times, but Morgan knows she is home and her couch is not only warm and safe, but most importantly quiet. \u00a0A place to dream happy dreams.<\/p>\n

For some reason I think she is making the right choice and I tell her I think it is a good idea.\u00a0 I walk out onto the porch and watch her and her puppy drive off at 12:47 AM.\u00a0 I wake up Steve and tell him what has happened – he wants to get up and make sure she makes it OK.\u00a0 I tell him I have been watching cars in driveways for the last five minutes and nothing has moved, and she promised to text me as soon as she is safely locked up in her friend’s grandmother’s house.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s 12:52 AM when I call dispatch.\u00a0 I tell them what has happened.\u00a0 She has done this a few times when the stalker is being extra persistent, so this might be a good night to nab him, but before I can explain all that, dispatch tells me the officers just left the neighborhood one hour before because they were investigating our next door neighbor Ken\u2019s house where a robbery occurred early in the evening, but they will come back.\u00a0 Might not even be an hour.<\/p>\n

You would think with a sheriff\u2019s presence constantly coming and going from our house that nobody in the right mind would be breaking in to our neighbor\u2019s house – but I don\u2019t think we have been dealing with people that are in their right mind.<\/p>\n

The next morning Steve is watching the cameras and can see the deputy walk up to Morgan\u2019s window, get down on his knees and inspect something on the ground.\u00a0 He wonders what he found and wants me to make a note to ask Detective Rob next time I talk with him.\u00a0 Steve also see\u2019s him on the other side of the house and comments to me that he never even went in the backyard!<\/p>\n

At 8:00 AM another of Morgan\u2019s friends had a text message conversation with her about Bluegrass, he can\u2019t believe she won\u2019t go to a performance with him and tattoos, which he believes you have to have before you can express certain opinions.\u00a0 It is all good natured and fun loving.<\/p>\n

Steve meets his crew in the driveway at 8:55 AM and lines out the day for them.\u00a0 He invites them in the house for coffee, and tells them about the night before. \u00a0They are incensed and just want to go take care of this.\u00a0 Steve tells them that we heard from the detective that it will be over soon.\u00a0 None too soon for our liking.<\/p>\n

Morgan comes home at 10:07 AM and looks well rested. Steve leaves at 10:10 AM in his truck to run an errand. 10:27 AM her \u201cdrunk dial\u201d friend from this morning texts to tell Morgan he is sorry.\u00a0 Morgan does not answer him, and works on her room before we all leave to go to our doctor\u2019s appointments this afternoon in Grand Junction.<\/p>\n

There was a mini van that pulled up the driveway at 10:55 AM and a man came to the front door with a sheet of paper looking for someone in the neighborhood that I had never heard of before.\u00a0 He seemed to expect that and left, not circling the neighborhood or asking anyone else, just left…strange.<\/p>\n

Right after he left Morgan got a text she found uproariously funny.\u00a0 She is getting very frustrated trying to get her point across to her long ago ex-boyfriend, that she does not want to date him again, she just wants to be friends.\u00a0 She changed her facebook profile as a joke to say she was in a relationship with a girlfriend of hers at school.\u00a0 Her girlfriend had just been approached by an instructor who thought it was about time.\u00a0 It was so funny to Morgan that she was going to leave it for a few more days before changing it back.<\/p>\n

Steve loaded the truck with the dogs and our stuff and at 12:19 PM and Morgan was now in one of her all time favorite places, crashed out in the back seat of the truck, and off on a road trip.\u00a0 A short one, but a road trip all the same. Below you can see a Facebook Post she responded to today.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Today is November 26, 2012<\/strong> \u2013 That day last year seemed so normal.\u00a0 I mean as normal as having a stalker that hasn\u2019t been caught yet can be.\u00a0 I have to admit the day this past September when our Garfield County Sheriff went on TV and announced he would NEVER reopen this investigation I was devastated.\u00a0 And I believed then that Morgan, who had been nothing but a kind giving soul her entire life, was being so unfairly treated.\u00a0 I am not alone, in private emails, from others in law enforcement, it is a constant question – how could he have said that? \u00a0I have replayed the clip many times and there can be no doubt as to what was said and since repeated. \u00a0How in the world can you say that? \u00a0What if you were presented with an airtight case, with all kinds of evidence to show there was murder…would you still have to say NEVER?<\/p>\n

But if he is the Sheriff and he is entitled to make that call \u2013 then he has made it. \u00a0This just compels us to go up higher to a different law enforcement agency to open this case – we won’t give up,<\/p>\n

Now for other victims of stalking, and others who may become victims there is this other unbelievable interpretation.\u00a0 We were out to your house X times and never saw a stalker, so there isn\u2019t one? \u00a0Are you kidding? \u00a0Do you think a stalker is just going to sit and wait for you to get there and see him? \u00a0I kind of doubt it. \u00a0And what about footprints, pictures, videos, eye witness accounts…do they not count for anything?<\/p>\n

November 30, 2011 is a perfect example of how that just can not fly.\u00a0 Morgan gave up on sleeping in her own bed during the early moments of that day.\u00a0 Terrorized from her room.\u00a0 The same Sheriff\u2019s department that now claims there was never a stalker, dispatched an Officer that had left an hour ago, and returned 34 minutes later.\u00a0 Morgan was gone for 39 minutes.\u00a0 By now we know the stalker most likely was on the roof 45 minutes ago, but where do you think he is now? Honestly? \u00a0The deputy searched the ground for five minutes on Morgan’s side of the house, then the other side of he house, never circled the house – if the stalker had wanted to sit on out back porch, the Officer would never have seen him. \u00a0No problem, won\u2019t even have to duck. \u00a0The Officer then sat in his truck for six minutes before leaving. \u00a0End of story – no stalker.<\/p>\n

Make no mistake, I am not blaming that officer at all.\u00a0 I am pointing out how this is not working. \u00a0How this is the plan they have to stop the stalker, and it is not working. \u00a0Over 3,500,000 views of Morgan\u2019s Stalking have taken place.\u00a0 One person – one page \u2013 one view.\u00a0 Do any of those 3.5 million views think that today\u2019s performance almost nabbed the perp, stopped the stalker – I don\u2019t.\u00a0 Lots of times now, I cry for Morgan, Steve too.\u00a0 But we have both talked about this so many times, and we cry just as much for other victims of stalking that will call this same Sheriffs department and will get exactly the same as Morgan got \u2013 and we wonder, Steve and I, how can anyone involved in Morgan’s stalking not sit back and wonder – is this the best we can do?<\/p>\n
