This morning, at 6:30 I got a call from my next door neighbor. She was in the shower, and heard a knock at her bathroom window. Turned to look (it was covered in contact paper, but a tiny crack wasn't covered), and heard a man say "Hey beautiful...can I watch?" She grabbed her towel and ran to her bedroom, and got a knock at that window. Called 911, and they came with their K9 dogs. The dogs tracked the scent from the windows to THAT house! The dogs sniffed around the back, thru the side, and to the front of the house. She went right to the man who is registered and would not leave him alone! Stayed right on top of him doing whatever it is they do when the find the scent. The cops couldn't do anything though because they couldn't find any of his shoes wet (the grass was wet). What the heck????????? The trained dog went right to this man, and they can't do anything because they couldn't find any wet shoes? Come on! The man has been in the pokey...he's not stupid! Maybe he went out barefoot or stuck the shoes in the strom drain or something!!!!! I've been leaving my windows open during the day because it's been cool out and I thought I'd turn off the AC. Not now! If it gets warm in here, I'll run the AC til Christmas! I can't believe this! Should've guessed that if he likes to do sick things to little girls, he'd think the same things about grown women! Two of my neighbors were just laughing at me last night telling me I'm a chicken...now look who's laughing!
That's horrible.. My children and I have been through this.. It's a nightmare.. 2 of my children were victims of a horrid crime.. (at 2 different times) When it happened to my daughter who at the time was 7. They could not do anything to the man, because they had no "physical " evidence that he was doing what he done.. I cannot tell you how bad my husband beat the shit out of this man.. The officers got there and said, they see nothing wrong with that mans face.. And told him to never come around our family again.. We told them the story when they got to us, told him that he tried to come and apologize for being ugly.. Husband came unglued.. Point is, they will NOT do anything until they "phyically" hurt you.. Pisses me off.. When it happened to my son and nephew.. (by the way both incidents were by someone we trusted). If it werent for my nephew breaking down in the interview room, he too would have walked away... Think out loud!! Surely there is something you and your nieghbors can do.. Make a petition to get this man out of your nieghborhood.. Or beat the crap out of him... Which ever comes first!!! ![]()
briansbaker,
I agree with you, she start a petition or beat the crap out of that perverted loser.
jen1977,
Do whatever you can to get this creep out of your neighborhood. These sickkos get way too much protection from the cops. I mean why do they train those dogs to do a job and when they do that job, the cops just stand there and let some stupid reason keep them from arresting the sickko. I will be saying a prayer for your family for sure. Keep safe!!
This makes me so sick!! People like that gross me out.
Please know that I am praying for You & your family!! ![]()
Just thinking out loud here...but haven't I read or seen on the news stories about this kind of thing happening to other people and when the police aren't able to do anything 'cause of 'lack of evidence' they do things to make the entire area aware of the creeps presence. Things like posting big signs in their yards that say things like "Convicted sexual predator lives here" and then a big arrow pointing toward the house they live in. Don't know if that violates any laws or not, but they sure don't deserve rights when they've done things like that, IMO, and are obviously not rehabilitated, as this guy seems.
If I were in your shoes, I would invite the lady that he was harassing and her husband over to talk with you and your husband. Maybe the men could go door to door telling the entire neighborhood and if enough men in the area care to, it wouldn't be a bad idea for them to make a little visit to this guy and scare the sh*t out of him.
There's absolutely no way that I could just sit and wait on the police to do something. Their hands are tied so often in situations like this because of our flawed system of laws and justice, IMO. I would most definitely call in and request that they patrol the neighborhood heavily, especially considering this scum's brazen actions this morning. No doubt your neighborhood is full of SAHM's home with their children every day while their husbands are at work. I'd also go get about 6 cans of pepper spray - one to keep in my pocket at all times and the others I'd strategically place throughout the house. I don't want to sound paranoid, but this a**hole obviously thinks he doesn't have anything to worry about - I mean...he walked over to someone else's house and did this in the light of day!! He's a little too comfortable, IMO...and thoroughly twisted.
Good luck and please keep us updated about this. Your family and your neighborhood are in my prayers.

I love this idea.
I wish you the best of luck in whatever you decide to do thats best for the situation & your family's safety.
I have been busy on the phone all morning. Talking to other neighbors, the police, detectives, landlord, etc. The police would just tell me they will step up patrols, and they have a suspect, so she's sure he will probably be arrested. Wahtever. They were in the creeps house, and left him there to laugh at us all! I told the dispatcher I would be calling the local news stations as soon as I got off the phone with her since they will obviously do nothing to keep us all safe, and she immediately transferred me to the detectives. I spoke with them, and a detective is supposed to be calling me today. The news stations love stories like this, and it would be even better that there would be a group of women with their cildren talking to them! I'm planning on getting pepper spray after I drop my boys off at school. The woman next door to us is single and has two girls. I'm in the process of trying to type up a petition, but I'm so frazzled, my wording isn't sounding right at all. I've heard of people putting up signs, and may do that also. I just want this creep out of here. It was bad enough that we didn't feel safe in our yards, now it's inside our homes!
Feel free to move to Oklahoma, one of my favorite things about this state is the "make my day" law and it is just how it sounds if somebody is on your property threatening you or your family, you have the right to shoot first and ask later. I agree with JennT, these guys give up many of their rights when the CHOOSE to violate somebody else
I'm really not that violent, just don't mess with my family
OH my how freaky. I would be doing all that I could to get that man's butt in jail. Because if he moves he'll just do it to some other unsuspecting person. I'm sorry you have to deal with this. This world is going down the crapper quickly and we need to all stick together to keep it from going all the way down. You are in my prayers. Good luck.
P.S. Sorry to get on my soapbox a little.
I say beat the u know what out of him!!!!!
On a more serious side, also a bit disturbing, if this man sees your children outside...I'd be wandering if he's just LOOKING at them like, well picturing them undressed or something or whatever it is that their messed up minds think.
Point is: I wouldn't even want to be in his sight, let alone allow my children to be in his sight.
This is so scary! You never know what's going to happen.
He'll probably be back there, to that same womans house, b/c nothing happened to him this time.......tell her to get surveillance!
Good Luck to you!!!!!

I'd let it be known that my house and my family were being protected by SMITH AND WESSON! ( even if you don't own a gun!!)
Maybe that will make anyone think twice about bothering you!
Ya'll might want to take a peek at your neighborhood. Here's the link to the National Sex Offender registry.

Kinda scary when you see an address and think, I know that house....
I will be thinking of you. I was relieved a few months ago my sister was involved with a family friend who was in jail for sex crimes against a teenage girl. They were going to get married when he got out and I prayed really hard that it wouldn't happen. My sister has 2 girls a teenager whois just 14 and a preteen who is 12. They 12 yr old is a very lovey girl and I was very worried about her. I had already decided that if they got together my 7 yr old would never stay with them. She lives about 1hr away. So after he got out he decided he needed space and moved to another state. My prayers were answered. I didn't have to tell hubby whole story about him Cause he would have beaten him on sight at a family function where my DD was never out of my sight. So I pray for you and the other families.

Yeah, it's especially scary since I just checked my zip code and discovered that a guy that just moved in two houses down from us is on the LIST!!! So much for feeling safe in my neighborhood!!!!!!!! ![]()

jen1977 ... I'm so sorry for what you're going through. I can't even imagine. You're in my thoughts, and I hope that you and your neighbors (and the police, etc.) will be successful in getting that scumbag out of there SOON!!!!
i swear i would put big signs pointing to that house saying that he lives there all over the neighborhood. maybe that will get him out of there. what a creep, and go figure that law is protecting him and not you. jeesh, someone should break his knee caps. sorry i am not usually violant, but people like that, just make me sooooo mad. had to vent on this one.
Whatever you do, just be careful!! He may not have caused any physical harm to anyone in your neighborhood yet, but that doesn't mean he's not capable!!! I'm not saying posting signs is a bad idea, but you have to be careful you don't set him off and have him come after you or your kids. Just make sure you protect yourself and your family!!
My mom has been dealing with a stalker. She knows who it is, but there is no physical evidence. It's awful that he gets away with it, but she lives in fear of him!! He hasn't done anything in several months, but he could just be waiting... Just be careful!!!
You need to check the laws of your state, county, and city to see if posting this mans picture in the area is legal, but if it is, I would make fliers with this mans picture and ask stores and shops in your neighborhood to put them in their windows, post them on poles, any place you can, and pass them to neighbors. You need to put his name and picture on them with the warning about his past.
I hate the fact that too many people think they are beyond the law. No one is beyond the law. You and your neighbors need to band together and take action.
I had followed this post and learned somethings. Today my niece called me and told me that the landlord of the house she just moved into is a 2 offence sex offender, One with force. When she moved in he told her no animals. She didn't like that she had to dogs she had to get rid of. Then her husbands freind should up in town and was going to move there and wanted to stay with them for a few days. He told her only the 2 adults and 2 children were aloud. She just found out about him. Neighbors told her he is a peeping tom also. So she contacted the local police. They know about him. She asked what she could do. They said not to much. She asked about changing the loocks and they said she could only do it if it was stated in the lease. I asked her about the windows and she said they don't lock and half of the windows are broken. Like I said she had to move quickly because owner of other house sold it and needed them out. So she needed something fast. I told her to change the locks anyway and board up any window that didn't lock or was broken. I also told her to contact a lawyer for advise on getting out of the 6 month lease. Since he didn't disclose his sex offender status to her. She had a 2 yr old girl and a 5 yr old boy who are now sleeping with her every night. And she said she can't sleep after hubby leaves early in the morning for work. She works evenings so they don't have to pay daycare. So she isn't getting much sleep. It just stinks because he only lives a few blocks from her and has a key to her house. I hope and pray for her this evening. Until she can get the locks changed and windows secured. I know that won't totally stop him but it well delay him alittle and she can call the cops. Especially if she has the locks changed. If you have any other ideas they are welcome. Thanks
I finally talked to a detective yesterday, and he was no help at all. We aren't allowed to put up signs...it's against his civil rights. I don't even know why these criminal even have civil rights, let alone worry about protecting them. A neighbor and I walked down our street and the one behind us where the creep lives, and asked everyone to keep their back lights on at night. Hopefully, this discourages any more peeps since it is very light out there, but he peeped around 6am last week, and it isn't super dark then, so who knows. They are suppsoed to have less than 3 weeks left before they HAVE to move, but we all know it can take much longer if they have to go thru the courts to get them out. I'm just praying that they move willingly, and the courts don't have to get involved.
Kay...that is very scary! I bet there is some way your niece could get out of her lease. If I were her, I would move, and if they landlord tries anything, let him take her to court. I'm sure she would be able to get out of it. It doesn't sound like the landlord is willing to cooperate with her at all. He has to provide a safe house for the tenants.

Kinda scary when you see an address and think, I know that house....
A while ago a friend reccomended this to me after my family found out that a friend(of my brother)'s dad was a child rapist. Well I went on there because I was working the night shift and found my boyfriend's soon-to-be-divorced (thank god) STEPDAD. As in the guy I'd been left in the room with several times. I was so mad. I confronted my boyfriend and he said it was a mis-communication from a young girl (ew ew) and the charges were dropped, but I still can't believe he hadn't told me!
This kind of stuff is so scary!!! The county we live in has sex offender info (pictures, addresses, where they work, ect.) on the sheriff's site. A friend of mine told me I should check it out and ther is a sexual predator 1 block away from me!!! I'm a stay at home mom with 3 kids and it really freaked me out. At the same time, I'm so thankful that info is available and I showed my kids the man's picture and told them if they ever see him, to run, don't walk, the other way. What's really scary is, we have alot of kids in our neighborhood who ride their bikes around and unfortunately I don't think their parents know about this man. We live in a very small community (about 1300 people) and I think everyone assumes they are safe in a community this size! I encourage everyone to find out where the info is available for their community, county, ect. and educate yourselves on who is living near you! By the way, I now tell everyone I can about this man and where he lives....
jen1977 - I would contact the local tv news and newspapers regardless of what the police say. They can at least get the word out that there is a peeping tom in your neighborhood who is a convicted sex offender. The more publicity, the better. I don't understand why it's a violation of his civil rights for you to make signs - his name & face are in the sex offender registries for anyone to see, so what's the difference? I'd make flyers with his address on it and put them up on telephone poles & in local businesses. No one can trace that back to you.
Good luck.
