Peeping Tom Allegedly Scrawled 'I Won't Stop Stalking You' On Teen Girl's Window, Police Say

Another story has emerged bringing the seriousness of stalking into the public eye.


The week, the online journal Broadly began a campaign to bring awareness to the dangers of stalking. It seems the campaign can't get here soon enough as a recently released police video shows how scary the crime of stalking can be.

Investigators in Florida set up a camera after it was reported that someone wrote on a 17-year-old girl's bedroom window:

I won't stop stalking you

The mother of the girl told reporters that after the incident, she could see marks on the window where the person has pressed their face against the glass.

She's a child, so it's, like, who would say that? There's an impression of his face on her window ... It's, like, unsettling.

It turns out is was another child. Police arrested a 17-year-old boy after he and his parents arrived to turn him in. The girls mother said about the arrest:

I'm really happy that his parents turned him in. I'm sure that's a tough thing to do (to) your own kid, but I was happy for his safety (because) I was worried and scared, and my reaction would have been visceral if I had caught him here.

The teen was charged with loitering, prowling and trespassing.

Before the arrest was made, the Sanford Police Department shared a video of the suspect of FB:

Accompanying the video, they said:

In a disjointed monologue about the decor in the cabinet room, Trump said he stole a grandfather clock from Secretary of State Marco Rubio's office and chose a painting of James Polk because the frame matched the frame around his favorite President—Andrew Jackson.
