Deputies Seeking Peeping Tom With One Shoe Who Used to Wear This Purple Hat

Backpack contentsInformation from the Humboldt County Sheriff’s Office:

Last night at about 9:30 p.m., deputies responded to a residence on the 2400 block of Central Ave [in McKinleyville]. for the report of a suspicious person. The caller reported having seen a subject in their backyard. The subject appeared to be holding a camera or cell phone up to a bathroom window where the caller’s teenage daughter was inside. The caller confronted the subject, who jumped over a fence and fled. Deputies checked the area, but were unable to locate the subject.Purple hat and green backpack

Chained to a sign at an adjacent business, was this bicycle and backpack. Deputies checked the backpack for any items to indicate an owner and located a BB gun and knife. It is unknown if the items are related to the suspect, but deputies collected them for safekeeping. The beanie was located in the back yard of the residence.

The caller was unable to provide a full description, but said the subject was a white male with light colored hair that had been sticking out from under the beanie like an afro. Based on footprints at the scene, it was determined that the subject was only wearing one shoe. The second shoe was not located on scene.Purple hat and green backpack bike

Wow, even the Peepers are strapped now!!??? It’s only a BB Gun but it looks real enough to scare someone into submission!!! I can’t think of any other use for it under these circumstances!!!

Peeper sounds way too innocent… this sounds more like a stalker, and the beginning stages of premeditated assault… What a POS!

This is an extremely dangerous, fantasy-driven sex criminal in the offing. Peeping tom is just one of the paraphilias people like this exhibit early in their “career”. He is working up to something really tragic and I hope they find him soon.

Ted Bundy “practiced” by being a peeping Tom.

Shouldn’t Bundy be described as a Peeping Ted? Why are Peeping Toms called Toms? A google search resulted in this:
Peeping Toms towards the end of the 20th century got a new activity to partake in, or at least a new name was given to an old activity. The term “dogging” was coined in the UK – meaning ‘spying on couples having sex in a car or some other public place’. The meaning of dogging has since modified somewhat to include the practices of engaging in or viewing in sex in public.

But it doesn’t answer the question of why Tom?

There should be fingerprints all over the bike & other items if they bothered to take prints. That’s an expensive bike, hopefully they can track him through that.

Meth is involved. I will put money on it. Thievery, incest, rape, child abuse and domestic violence is all linked to meth

I’m a peeping-tom techie with x-ray eyes. Things are going great, and they’re only getting better. I’m doing all right, getting good grades. The futures so bright I gotta wear shades.

This is extremely troubling… someone knows who this guy is. I hope he doesn’t pull that again but if he does I really hope the father catches him this time and gives him a “serious talking to” The cops can’t do a whole lot at this point unless he does something more serious, god forbid. It’s a very dangerous situation.

Looks like an “old school” antique. No suspension at all.

~so, is the bike, if still locked there, transferring now-time webcam to the Sheriff’s Office? Or, otherwise, something?

I had a stalker who was sneaking on my property & they left many visible footprints/shoe prints. The cops in Garberville told me that they couldn’t use footprints because anyone could of put them there with any type of shoe. I had surveillance of the guys truck & face but nothing was ever done.

Well, if it happened to me I’d be tempted to string lengths of clear 50 lb fishing line in my back yard.
