He found in the reflection of the glass that the stalker is clearly wearing a \u201cutility belt\u201d that is strapped onto his waist.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<ol start=\"3\">\n<li>Steve tried to recreate an attempt to leap up and knock the camera down, from the rear bumper of his truck. \u00a0Now Steve was 55 years old at the time, and would be the first to admit he might have lost a half step, but he is 6 feet tall, and from where the truck was parked that night he was not able to even come close to the camera.\u00a0 He estimated he was at least four feet short of hitting the camera on his best attempt.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<ol start=\"4\">\n<li>As no branches were found in the yard or anywhere around the house the next day, we then assumed it was something the stalker carried with him, perhaps in this utility belt on his waist. \u00a0A one piece or telescoping rod of some sort, like an old school telescoping pointer or TV antenna maybe???<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<ol start=\"5\">\n<li>If that \u201cutility belt\u201d was to contain a telescoping rod, or as was demonstrated for me today, a \u201ctent support rod\u201d that snapped together into something 8\u2019 long, the stalker could not only have used it to try to knock the camera off, but for a more sinister reason\u2026just keep reading.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Second &#8211; remember the tapping, and banging on Morgan\u2019s window. \u00a0Months after her murder we visited a very talented medium &#8211; that is also a very good friend, and loved Morgan dearly.\u00a0 She told us many amazing things about Morgan and what had happened to Morgan with details, and accuracy she could not possibly have know prior to our visit.\u00a0 We had never mentioned to her about any of this. \u00a0But for this purpose, the one thing that is important is that she said to look on the roof, that we would find evidence on the roof of the house \u2013 she was very emphatic. \u00a0We tried in vain to have the detective go up on the roof, but that never happened, so Steve finally went up on the roof himself to check this out.\u00a0 \u00a0Among other things he found was this section of roof gutter that was directly over Morgan\u2019s window \u2013 this is the section that is depicted in the photo.<\/p>\n<p>Steve has worked with metal his entire life, and is certain the crack seen in this metal gutter is a stress fracture caused by bending out and then bending back, many, many, times.\u00a0 Steve also walked the entire neighborhood, checking out every gutter on the entire block and found no other gutter with ANY similar crack in 15 other homes, plus a club house.\u00a0 Only this section of gutter, directly over Morgan\u2019s window had a crack from being bent.\u00a0 This made me ill!\u00a0 As you can see from the photo our windows went all the way to the ceiling, and someone lying on our roof, and using the gutter to help support himself, could have easily leaned over to terrorize Morgan by tapping, banging and looking through her upper window.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_903\" style=\"width: 594px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><a href=\"https:\/\/morgansstalking.com\/?attachment_id=903\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-903\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-903\" data-attachment-id=\"903\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/morgansstalking.com\/?attachment_id=903\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/morgansstalking.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/08\/62-corral.gutter.crack_-e1346382749766.jpg?fit=2448%2C3264&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"2448,3264\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;2.4&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;iPhone 4S&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;1334138284&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;4.28&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;80&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0.0054644808743169&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Corral Drive, gutter over Morgan&amp;#8217;s window\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;Where the stalker could have laid on the roof and knocked on Morgan&amp;#8217;s window&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/morgansstalking.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/08\/62-corral.gutter.crack_-e1346382749766.jpg?fit=584%2C779&amp;ssl=1\" class=\"size-large wp-image-903\" title=\"Corral Drive, gutter over Morgan's window\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/morgansstalking.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/08\/62-corral.gutter.crack_-e1346382749766-768x1024.jpg?resize=584%2C778&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Stress crack in the gutter over Morgan's window\" width=\"584\" height=\"778\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/morgansstalking.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/08\/62-corral.gutter.crack_-e1346382749766.jpg?resize=768%2C1024&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/morgansstalking.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/08\/62-corral.gutter.crack_-e1346382749766.jpg?resize=225%2C300&amp;ssl=1 225w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/morgansstalking.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/08\/62-corral.gutter.crack_-e1346382749766.jpg?w=1168&amp;ssl=1 1168w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/morgansstalking.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/08\/62-corral.gutter.crack_-e1346382749766.jpg?w=1752&amp;ssl=1 1752w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 584px) 100vw, 584px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-903\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Where the stalker could have laid on the roof and knocked on Morgan&#8217;s window<\/p><\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>With the extendable tool that he could have been using it would have been easy to tap or bang on Morgan\u2019s windows from the safety of this position on the roof. \u00a0The detectives conducted a stake out one night, and saw our motion detector light, by our master bedroom, go off and on many times.\u00a0 Back then he suggested that our motion detector light was defective, and should be checked in to.\u00a0 Later when all of these facts came to light he said that makes perfect sense now &#8211;
