The women were alone. And he never knocked. And thats when i realized, someone had been in the house. She started to cry. Now, everything is gone. Flipping. Steele out. She tried to them [inaudible] his crimes were chilling. His crimes were bizarre. Its a little creepy to hear Something Like that. Very creepy. And i just heard a scream. I felt so scared. For her, for me, for all the women. I just about fell off my chair. We were in that much danger, and we didnt know it. What were you be willing to give me today to move past the Police Investigation . It was january, 2009. Brenda konstantin and her husband brian rodgers, and their three teenagers, two boys, and a girl spent the new years holiday the way they always had. A trip out of town and then back to their home. Amid class suburb in the capital city, ottawa. Its a very family oriented community, lots of young families. Lots of kids. But as you say . In a town which is very safe, but it didnt seem particularly safe. Theres never a lot of crime. In january, when brian and brenda got into their home on friday evening. The family house in orleans seemed exactly as they left it. But bryan did notice something odd. The digital clock in the room, on the left side of the bed, was blinking. I thought it was unusual but did not think much of it. And then you went ahead and just continued . Carried on our lives. And never dreamed, why would they . That theyre digital clock was blinking out of warning. Two days passed during which the 15 year old daughter lived out of the close in her suitcase, as teenagers sometimes do. Then came sunday. She is taking her shower. She went into her room, she went to her dryer, and thats when she discovered that all of her underwear had been taken from the drawer. So she told her parents. Shes a teenager, and, clothes are everywhere. I said, did you check your laundry basket, your suitcase, the floor. No maam, everything is gone. She was freaked . Yeah. Terrence said what parents say. I said look again. So she started to cry. And she said, everything is gone. Everything. But she did check again, and found more things were missing. She is running out, shes crying, very upset. Then we realize that something that was very weird was going on here. But what was going on . I went upstairs and looked. And saw it sure enough. It was missing. We immediately call the police and reported it. Although they were worried enough to cover the police, they werent sure what reception they would get. I thought it was a joke, i thought it must of been kids playing a joke. But the police did not think so. They were at the house in a matter of minutes, and they were all business. They spent five hours combing through the place. Then, came back the next day to take apart the family computer. Did they find anything . No. They didnt find anything. Not in the computer. But in the daughters bedroom. Disturbing discoveries. Along with 15 pairs of missing underwear, a number of the daughters bathing suits, dresses, tank tops, also vanished. They discovered the intruder had rifled through the family photo albums and remove pictures. But only those that showed the daughter. And those were vacation pictures down in punta cana. So they were all beach pictures, bathing suit pictures. And then. It got ugly. They said they found some dna evidence on my daughters dresser. That was the one that was really weird. Investigators said the sample was consisted with dried semen. They found it on the top of the daughters dresser. Where the underwear had been stolen. All of that, along with the fact that no one else in the house reported anything missing. Lead investigators to issue the kind of warning that no parent ever wants to hear. They told us that, luckier doors. Secure your house. We have to be careful. We have to watch her daughter. They said she was targeted, it wasnt a random breakin. Targeted . Not random . That was when the fear called in. And infected there once, comfortable lives. Everything from this moment, different. Do you take your safety for granted. And then all of a sudden, there is nothing you can do thats really good enough. After that, their daughter was never alone. Brian and brenda put in a new alarm system. And kept asking, who was it . Who would do this . They tried to come to terms with the other troubling news that they had learned from police. That theirs was by no means the only breaking of its kind in orleans. So they knew it was a pattern. A little creepy to hear Something Like that . Very creepy. In fact, almost a dozen such breakins have been reported in orleans in the past year. The police had issued a warning for residents legs though brian and brenda did not know about it. Now, officers told a couple of their biggest concern. That the intruder, whoever he was, would escalate from stealing lingerie, to more dangerous behavior. They were very concerned at the time that there was escalation. And rightly so, because in a matter of months. Thats exactly what was going to happen. It was almost like he had a gun on my head at that moment. Coming up the draw was open. And thats when i realized, someone had been in the house. A woman living alone discovers that she is not. I was like in the three steps i was up where she was. And she was standing with her hands like this. When dateline continues vo ultimate endless shrimp is here with a limited time flavor drop. New crispy dragon shrimp.

Daughter was targeted was targeted during a burglary in january of 2009, Brenda Konstantin and brian rogers followed police advice. And made sure that she was never alone. She had a very respectable lifestyle after that. The daughter coped in her own way. We had a spare room, and she stayed in there. She slept with a light on. She still does. Brenda and brian, eager to warn others about the threat, called a neighborhood wheeling. But they say the police asked them to cancel it. The objective was to keep this man doing it, and they thought they had to catch him in the act. Wait a minute. Using the neighborhood as bait . Exactly. The police were doing what they could without success. By november 2009, almost a year after the break in at the home, the intruder was still out there. More than a dozen breakins had been reported. Many involving stolen underwear. Shockingly high, with a snuggie, safe neighborhood. Brenda and brian, now on the nervous alert. Could not stop wandering. Who. Who . Who couldve done this . A woman named and martin cook. And a friend named howard gray started asking that question. She lived in this lovely farmhouse 150 miles away from brenda and brian. Howard lived on the same busy highway, not far from the small city of belleville. November 17th 2009, late that afternoon. And hurried home to change into party clothes. It was her birthday. She was heading to howards place to celebrate. I was really rushing. I was looking forward to going. And lived alone much of the time at his own place, and that suited her fine. Shes a Music Teacher and artist. She wanted time and space to herself. I like to have space, as my art grows i like faith. But did you feel insecure ever before . Did you lock your doors and windows . No. And friend, howard gray, grew up down the road. To take the keys out of the ignition of the cars. Thats what i grew up in. Thats safe . Where you know everybody . Yeah. Back on that november day, when and got up to her bedroom on the second floor, she looked in the mirror thinking about what to wear. It was then that she noticed something strange in the mirror s reflection. A Bedside Table with a drawer open. So i looked at it and thought, i did not open this. She looked at the other Bedside Table. The drawer was open, all my sex toys and some stuff was gone. And that was when i realized somebody had been in the house. Had to be a prank . Had to be howard . He had a set of keys to her place because he often did handyman jobs there. She hopped in her car, drove the 200 yards to his house. She came right in and then said, are you playing a practical joke on me . No. So then she proceeded to tell me. Trade in the car, well follow overnight. The two of them Troops Upstairs to the bedroom. Discussed at length whether to reports the missing sex toys to the Belleville Police. My words were, dont fall in the police. There will be nothing good. My first reaction was to phone the police, because someone had been in the house. But then he said, think about it. So really it was embarrassment. No it was just. We were just thinking the reality of what would happen if you called. They were also trying to decide if maybe they should be them [inaudible] maybe really was a joke. But if so . Who couldve been behind it . I was thinking. Somebody that knows me. It will come up in the morning, maybe a mailbox with a ha or Something Like that. Theres a reason they recalled that in minor detail. A terrifying reason. But on this evening, they did not know that yet. As they prepare to return to howards house for the Birthday Party he was throwing her. And it was simply an excess of caution when he told her. Bring her pajamas. I said to her, obviously someones been to the house. Youre not staying alone tonight. And this was important, before they left. They locked ans house of tate. Just in case. All we did was just go along to the windows and doors. She went in front of me, and i went behind her. And double checked everyone. That night they partied with friends. Drank howards homemade strawberry wine. Made light of the bizarre theft. And perhaps the light of day would reveal the prankster. Then, 7 45 the next morning. They were back at the farmhouse. She ran upstairs to her home office to do some photocopying. Howard waited below. Then he heard her terrifying scream. She was like howard my work boots were still on. And in three steps i was up where she was. And she was staring with her hands like this. Standing in staring at the old Desk Computer she had not fired up for months. And the screen was glowing in the day morning light. A message, that shook and to the core. I took it so personally. This is, i knew someone was out there for me. And that was very, very scary. Coming up i said an. We lock that door last night. And she goes yes. And i said, well that doors open was ans intruder also paying another women . His crimes going evermore depraved .

On the morning of robert every other month, on the morning after her Birthday Party, the party she made a terrifying discovery. I was really scared. It was november 2009, and and her friend howard were standing in an Upstairs Hallway of her Old Farmhouse in belleville ontario. They were sparing at her computers green. It was the first time in my life that the hair stood up at the back of my neck. Because it was a message directed. Personal. Yeah. Now they know. The break in the previous day. The theft of those sex toys. Was not a joke. Not even a bad one. All that time last evening that they had stood right in the swath, beside the discussion. Should they call the police are not . They figured this cops would just laugh. So they decided not to call. But after and spend that night at howards and return home first thing in the morning. This is what greeted her on the computer screen. Go ahead and call the police, i want to show the judge your really big deal those. Eventually, and would wonder about those typos. But just now, she froze. It was almost like she had a gun to my head at that moment. This time, and called 911. And then she and howard waited for the police to arrive. They became in a disturbing conclusion. Whoever wrote the message, literally some have crazy. Must of been hiding in the house the evening before. When they debated whether to report the theft. It was proof that he was there. We have no evidence that he was there. They have been talking just outside of ends bedroom. Down the hall, in this closet, they say. They found evidence to support their chilling theory that the intruder had been hiding their. It was all upside down. Yeah, so hes. He had to be listening. To have a message like that. Go ahead, phone the police. And then, a second dreadful discovery. They searched the house to see if Anything Else had been stolen. And in her bedroom, and discovered that all of her underwear had disappeared. And the god, that was sickening. She loved lingerie. Owned more than 100 sets. All gone. She was a basket case. She really was. I gotta go downstairs. Only to make a third, gut wrenching discovery. I said we lock that door last night. And she said yes. Well that doors open. She goes, no its not. But it was. And, then the two of us looked at another and we started talking about the possibility that whoever was here let themselves out. They had to. The rest of that day passed in a blur. A Police Officer from the nearby city of belleville got to the house and got to work. They took it seriously. He did. As soon as he walked in, the officer looked at what was on the computer screen. He pulled up his mic and said get forensics out here right now. That same day, amid the upset, anne and howard had a question for the bell police. It was about a couple of disturbing incidents that happened of the road in a Speculative Place called tweed, two months ago. Incidents more serious than what happened to her. Incidents also directed against women alone, at night. Although tweed was only 20 minutes away, it was by the belleville cops. We asked all of them. Do you know anything about those . Because i said, it had to be connected. You told the police this . Oh yes. And they were like, how do you know about it . We dont know anything about it. They did know about . It they didnt seem to. And was convinced that the incidents were linked. They had to be. There had to be one person, there cant be that many evil persons around. She said she begged for them to have her case. Investigate the connection. I said please look into the tweed case, it has the beacon neck dead. But then life took over as life well. And she let the matter drop. I pressured her about phoning. But i was thinking, they know their job. Coming up she said, whats going on . Somebody broke into my house . No sir, its way more serious than that. Police close in on the suspect. He said, youre gonna tell us why you did this . When dateline continues growing. I had 14 rounds of chemo. Theres thousands and thousands of kids all over the world who need help.
