\u00a0when she arrived home later that evening she went directly into her room, days later she told her father and I that she had started to undress in her bathroom, in order to take a shower, and then heard tapping on her bathroom window. \u00a0Morgan&#8217;s bathroom window was made of obscured glass, so you could not see in, but someone outside could see the light go on, and possibly some shadows. \u00a0Morgan jumped, but then thought it must be a branch or a bird tapping the glass, so she disregarded the noise&#8230;<strong>this was the start of Morgan&#8217;s stalking<\/strong>&#8230;at least we thought this was the beginning. \u00a0Much later on we would learn, as in many other stalking victim&#8217;s cases, that it really started before any of us ever noticed. \u00a0Morgan had become a target of a stalker(s).<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Click on &#8216;Next&#8217;
