Husband and I went on our morning walk and it did not go as expected. He noticed a small red light blinking at the wood line as we approached and we found a game camera, on our land, pointing at our house that isn't ours.
He cut it down (it was attached with wire to a tree) and is taking out the memory card as well as checking our home cameras to see when it was placed, but this is not good, husband is on the warpath.
...
So it turns out it was placed last night while we were at church and there's a picture of the guy placing it, Sheriff is on his way over.
...
And the Sheriff is here, and he knows the guy, a known offender against children one county south and he's on the registry. Husband said they can go arrest him right now for trespassing and child endangerment and breaking his parole and whatever else they can throw at him or we can deal with it, sheriffs choice. Looks like they're going to pick him up, which is the right call because I don't want to be a prison wife, but I'm willing.
....
I'm properly freaked out, our property is entirely fenced and he avoided all the cameras you can see by hooking wide to the west and coming through the swamp but my husband also has cameras you can't see in case someone wants to be sneaky and that set caught him as well as a good shot of his face from the memory card.
Every day I up grade my situational awareness. I shower, shave, brush my teeth, and strap on a S&W MP 9. Check the loads and the spare mag. Then check the wife, the dogs, and the red horse. After that, I decide if I’m in the mood or not. I like to be left alone about pedophiles.
I’ve long since done that in terms of cameras and mics.
There have been too many news stories of hidden surveillance being found in hotels and everywhere else.
I have a couple of scanners from Amazon, cheap but highly rated. What times I’ve used them, they never found anything.
A flashlight is something else I keep in the suitcase. That is a cheap countermeasure I’ve read about but so far the few places I’ve stayed, found nothing.
My immediate yard would be kind of tough to plant something without a sensor being tripped or the neighbor’s ever awake little dog from barking.
A lot of my neighbors are usually out working in their yards and would find something.
I like your thinking.
Are they devout traditional Catholics?
The United Kingdom is worried about its King’s security after unidentified drones were seen over Charles Royal residence of Sandringham.
A no-fly zone has been put in place over the King’s home
Are bear traps legal anywhere these days?
Shoot, shovel, and shut up.
The red light must be the infrared flash going off when a picture is taken.
“Interesting that the hidden camera had a blinking red light when it was supposed to be hidden.”
Yes. Very odd indeed, that the weirdo didn’t think to put a piece of electrician’s tape over the blinking red light.
“..Shoot, shovel, and shut up....”
^THIS^, right there...right after a forced, self-inflected de-nutting with a dull blade.
Oh, sorry. I thought it happened to you.
Not sure I understand.
This is good to know about.
The guy was up to no good as is obvious what with the sneaking around he did and how he went out of his way to try to avoid being caught on any home security cameras.
My guess is casing out the place and trying to determine the owners schedules so they can hit the place.
Thank you.
No worries.
Crazy times are likely to get worse.
Note the young dad sitting on a bench in Arizona who was recently killed..
Do not sit with your back to a door, have an exit plan, and ... to start.
Agree on all points.
Well.
Then everybody will get their wish, won’t they.
With so much land and so many cameras I’m pretty sure hubby knows where the wild hogs hang out.
Soy latte pedo would NEVER be found.
A lot of these cameras are cell phone enabled. They can be viewed in real time.
Julie @JulieLovesFluff · 7hHaha hogs are our main opp, they don't eat bones as readily as people think they do though.
Good info to know.
Pull the card, camouflage old fashioned bear traps around them and see what happens.
That’s what I would do if I were writing a novel.
