Entitled Peeping Tom

“Okay, so I have this crazy entitled dude living next door with his entitled coward wife (she sends him to try to intimidate me, have never spoken to her), his newborn baby that he mentions every time he tries to intimidate me, and a toddler.

So yesterday afternoon, I get home from work, tidy up, have a shower, put a towel around me, and go to grab a glass of water and just sort out my new Firestick USB on the tv and basically tidy up around my tv. Now his house is built up higher than mine and his front stairs to the front door come down right outside my kitchen window from across his driveway, so he has a perfect view straight through my house – through the kitchen to my living room/tv area (and a full view into almost all my rooms if all curtains and blinds are open (perfect).

So I’m at my tv fiddling about for about 5-10 mins with my back turned away from my kitchen window. I’m bending over and the towel may not exactly be covering everything. Now usually if someone were to be at the bottom of those stairs, my sofa would shield my bottom half from view as the sofa is behind me.

As I start to turn around, I immediately spy his two legs just standing on his front stairs facing me, not moving. I can’t see his face as the kitchen cabinets attached to the wall are obscuring his face from view unless I bend down a bit but can clearly see his legs and feet facing me, not moving. I move out of view acting as if I haven’t noticed. And slowly inch back in, crouching to try and make out what the heck he is doing. I can see his torso somewhat and he’s still not moving. Don’t dare to get any more of a view as now I’m fairly positive he is staring straight in and will catch my face if I bend down any further to see his.

I wait. He doesn’t move. About 2 minutes go by with me out of view until he bounds down the stairs shirtless, no phone in hand so can’t have been texting or whatever on the stairs, thus no other reason to be silently standing on his front stairs for goodness knows how long. He had on boardshorts, so maybe a sliver of a chance he slipped a phone into a pocket, but I really don’t think so.

I have a security cam out on my deck which should have caught him in the near distance (needs to be set up like this; otherwise, I can’t see part of my front fence yadda yadda. It was initially set up as a doggy cam), but lo and behold, it has not caught him. This is now the second time it has not caught him creeping. The first time it should have caught him creeping above my fence glaring at me as my dog was outside by the fence directly in camera view, yet it did not. It’s motion and sound-activated. I don’t know what the heck is up with my cameras, seem like they never work when I really need them to for proof if this creeper escalates.”

Get a couple of cameras different angles. I have 8 around my house. Nothing gets by. Have all set to record all times. Get bigger memory for backup. Never hurts. Decent camera and memory is getting cheaper all the time. Ebay has tons. Good luck. Dont let it escalate. It never ends well.
