Lets say a certain “doctor” moved into your neighborhood. Then, unbeknownst to you, he and his wife started filming through your bathroom windows, reporting on line as to ‘who drops what’?
Assume this pervert is also a Major Coprophiliac and is clinically obsessed with (in his words) “poo”?
Imagine that this same ‘doctor’ also has a cam pointed directly into your 12 year old child’s bedroom window, the room where he gets dressed and undressed daily. Lets assume that not only does his weird wife know… but that she is probably a codependent enabler to his fetish.
What could you charge this peeping tom with?
What would you do in response?
What would you do to limit this peeping tom pedophile’s access to your house and property without hiding from his aggressive mental illness?
What agencies in NJ would want to know that a licensed medical Dr is in fact a peeping tom and (likely) a pedophile?
What would you do off the record to be rid of this Scumbag?
Close the curtains? Although my brother put this diffusing film over the window in his first floor bathroom, as it’s level with the deck right outside. Previously, he had these ugly shutters on the inside of the window, but the film seems a better approach, as it lets in light while obscuring the view into the room. And I also like the idea of those shades that are attached at the lower part of the window and can be raised, so they’re still open at top.
Is closing the blinds an option? I vaguely recall that it’s not an invasion of privacy to look into someone’s house as long as the person is not trespassing. So as long as someone is on their own property or the sidewalk, they are fine looking in your house or yard. An example I’ve heard is that if you’re sunbathing in the nude in your backyard and the neighbor is watching from their upstairs bedroom, it’s not illegal.
I think nothing, unless he’s physically trespassing on your property while he’s filming. If people can see into your residence from vantage points not on your property, then I don’t think they’re breaking any laws.
Close the curtains/blinds when I want privacy. If I had a kid, I’d instruct him to do the same.
Re: dealing with the neighbor, I would save copies of his internet entries (to preserve evidence so he can’t deny his actions) and then publicize his activities to the neighborhood association so that others can be appropriately vigorous about protecting their own privacy from prying eyes.
The ostracism alone might be enough to get the neighbor couple to move away; they’d never be invited to any neighborhood party, and nobody’s going to stop by their place for friendly front-yard chit-chat.
In the presence of a police officer, warn the neighbor couple that they are not allowed on your property, and if they ever do trespass, they will be arrested/charged with trespassing. Explaining to the officer why you’re taking this step might convince him to look into your neighbor’s voyeuristic interest in your kid’s bedroom activities.
Have you considered putting mirrors in your windows so that he is videotaping himself attempting to videotape you?
Nevermind. That wouldn’t work. He might then put mirrors behind his cameras so that he’s then videotaping you reflecting him videotaping you reflecting him videotaping you.
Not relevant. There are screen shots saved to the cloud.
I will say that since I posted this, “Magically” the big cam in their window is now gone.
I was wondering how anyone could monitor bathroom habits too until I looked out that window at what angles were possible. There are only three windows in the neighborhood with the right angle to see into the room
at that angle (second floor windows) and one had a nice big circular security cam pressed against the glass. I took pictures before I posted this.
Can you give some more information? You say the filming was unbeknownst to you, so how do you now know that it’s happening? Have you seen him doing it? What exactly gave you the impression that he’s “clinically obsessed with poo”? Did you have a conversation with him that actually included him saying that? I’m especially confused about what he’s posting online, and how you know about it. Where is he making these reports? Have you seen the posts?
When they moved in two summers back there were 20-25 foot tall hedges along the property line, allowing for some nice privacy. One day I came home to find he had some landscaping company cut them all down and roto-til out the roots. I wasn’t happy, but he said he was putting in a fence for privacy.
A 6-foot high picket fence. Given his pedophilia / coprophilia habits, I guess now I know why.
What does that even mean? Did I somehow offend you?
Anyway, I see you’re not going to post on the topic anymore, I hope you get it all sorted out and find some peace in your own home again!
