That's another point: She wouldn't know who and how many are out there. I wouldn't go near a window to find out.

Try enforcing that. The lawyers and criminals get rich when you try to ban something like alcohol.

What a terrifying thing and luckily she wasn't home.

Want to bet he gets probation???

Temptresses real or imagined have existed since the beginning of mankind. Add booze and an old fool to the equation and you have a recipe for disaster. This has nothing to do with guns. If he didn't have one he would have thrown rocks or something else through her window or it would have gone crashing through her door. Yes indeed he has destroyed a lot of lives with his foolishness.

Out of control libidos have been the bane of humankind in so many ways

Having a stalker is terrifying. Having a stalker who tries to harm you is truly life changing. You never quit looking over your shoulder. If typical of most stalking cases, this man will get a light sentence with some mandatory counseling. The woman will have a life sentence of fear and worry and therapy will only help a little. She will never feel safe in her home again, no matter where her home is. Been there, done that, can write the book.

I hope that this is a good thing in the end. She wasn't harmed and he is arrested. I agree with Redwitch. I hope they throw the book at him. At least he is now known as a danger. His mugshot has been seen.

I triple that!!!

Today's DS said he was in jail with "no bond". You have to feel sorry for his wife, in that he was lusting after another woman.

Scary and sad.

BTW - I'm sure his spouse is upset at these turn of events, as he seems to gone off the deep end. From a nice home in TV, to jail!

Is it right to make her remain scared for her life? Lots of questions, no answers.

I don't know what the law is regarding that. It might make sense in some instances that the court could order him to stay away from guns. I believe that the order people who have been charged to stay away from alcohol.

Jim,
Of course, the courts could order him not to drink. The court could order him not to touch a gun. How would it be enforced? No one would know until he is drunk or starts waving a gun around - and the lady has to live in constant fear until his trial happens in a few more years.

Just does not seem right but I don't know what could be done.

Any suggestions - and the lady getting a pistol is not a vald suggestion. No one should not have to be armed 24/7 in order to feel safe in The Villages.

I wonder if he has dementia. He has no previous record of trouble. What a terrible mess for his family.
