Of all wasnt most what he did. I felt so scared for her. But who he was. I just about fell off my chair. We were in that much danger and we didnt even know it. It was january, 2009. Brenda constantine and her husband, brian rogers 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 in orlien, a middle class suburb in ottawa. Its the kind of place where the houses are snug to the street, and each other. Its a very familyoriented community. Lots of young families still live in orleans. Lots of kids. As you say in a town which is very safe, orleans seemed particularly safe . There was never a lot of crime. That january when brian and brenda got their brood home on friday evening, the family house seemed exactly as they left it. Brian did notice something odd. The digital clock in our room on the wayside of the bed was blinking. I thought that was unusual, but didnt think much of it. Then you went ahead and just continued . Carried on our lives. And never dreamed, why would they, that their digital clock was blinking out of warning. Two days passed during which time their 15yearold daughter lived out of the clothes in her suitcase as teenagers sometimes do. Then came sunday. Just taking a shower, she went to her room and went to her drawer and thats when she discovered all of her underwear had been taken from the drawer. So she told her parents. Shes a teenager, and clothes are everywhere. I said, well did you check your Laundry Basket . Did you check your suitcase . She said no, mom. Everything is gone. She was freaked out. Her parents said what parents say. I said, go up and look again. So she started to cry. She said, no, everything is gone. Everything. She checked again and found more things were missing. She was running out and crying and very upset. Then we realized theres Something Weird going on here. But what was going on . We went upstairs and looked and see what was missing. We immediately called the police. We called the police. And reported it. The next surprise because although brenda and brian were worried enough to call the police, they werent sure of the reception theyd get. We thought, yeah, theyre going to laugh at us. I thought it was kids playing a joke. 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 and came back the next day to take apart of the family computer. They didnt find anything. Not in the computer, but in their daughters bedroom disturbing discoveries. Along with 50 pairs of missing underwear, a number of bathing suits, dresses and tank tops vanished. The intruder rifled through the family photo albums and removed pictures, but only those that showed their daughter. And those like vacation pictures, so they were all beach pictures, bathing suit pictures. And then, said brian, it got ugly. They said they found dna evidence on my daughters dresser. That was the one that it was really weird. Investigators said the sample was consistent 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 led them to issue a warning no parent wants to hear. They told us to watch our daughter. Lock your doors, secure your house. They said she was targeted. It wasnt a random breakin. Targeted, not random . That was when the fear crawled in and infected their once comfortable lives. Everything from this moment different. You take your safety for granted almost, and all of a sudden nothing you do is 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, too, with the other troubling news they learned from police. That theirs was by no means the only breakin of its kind in orleans. So they knew there was a pattern. Its creepy to hear Something Like that. Very creepy. In fact, almost a dozen such breakins had been reported in orleans in the past year. The police had issued a warning to residents in late 2008, though brian and brenda didnt know about it. Now officers told the 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 about the escalation. Rightly so, because in a matter of months, thats exactly what was going to happen. Almost like he had a gun on my head at that moment. A woman living alone discovers shes not. I was like how. She freezed up where she was. She was standing with her hands like this. Because all the berries we pick come with their 100 money back guarantee. And thats the kind of thing i can really get behind. Picked by farmers. Guaranteed by us. Bathroom is trashed.

Odd as it sounds, they say the police asked them to cancel it. Their objective was to keep this man doing it, because hes very intelligent and knows what hes doing. They thought they had to catch him in the act. Using the neighborhood as bait . Exactly. The police were doing what they could without success, but in november of 2009 almost a year later the intruder was still out there. More than a dozen breakins had been reported, many involving stolen underwear, shockingly high for this snug, safe neighborhood. Brenda and brian, now on nervous alert, could not stop wondering who . Who could do this . A woman named anne marsan cook and her friend howard gray began asking that same question. Anne lives in this lovely Old Farmhouse 150 miles away from brenda and brian. Howard lives on the same busy highway not far from the small city of belleville. November 17, 2009. Late that afternoon anne hurried home to change into party clothes. It was her bitter day. Her birthday. She was heading to howards place to celebrate. I was rushing and looking forward to go. Anne lived alone in this old place, and that suited her fine. Shes a music teacher and artist. She wanted time and space to herself. I like to have space. My heart grows with space. Did you feel insecure ever before . Did you lock your doors and windows . No. Annes friend howard gray grew up down the road. 15 years ago we didnt even take the keys out of the ignition of the cars. Thats where i grew up. That safe. So you knew everybody . Yeah. Back on that november day, when anne got up to her bedroom on the second floor, she looked in the mirror thinking about what to wear. It was then she noticed something strange in the mirrors reflection. Her bedside table with a drawer open. I looked at it and thought i didnt open this. She looked at the other bedside table. The drawer was open on and some stuff was gone. Thats 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 said are you playing a practical joke on me . No. So she proceeded to tell me and i jumped in the car. Followed right over behind. They traipsed upstairs to annes bedroom and discussed at length whether to report the missing sex toys to the Belleville Police. My words were if we phone the police, youll hear laughter. My first reaction was to phone the police. Because somebody had to be in the house. Then he said, think about it. It was embarrassment . No. No. We were just thinking reality of what will happen if you phone. They were trying to decide if maybe they should be laughing, too. Maybe it it really was a joke. But if so, who could have been behind it . I was thinking its somebody that knows me. Theyll come up in the morning at the mailbox with ha, ha or Something Like that. Theres a reason they recall that conversation in minute detail. A it terrifying reason. As they returned 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 someone has been in the house, youre not staying alone tonight. This was important. Before they left they locked annes house up tight just in case. All we did is went arnold to all the doors and windows and made sure with everything. She went in front of me. I went behind her and doublechecked every one. That night they partied with friends and drank howards homemade strawberry wine. Made light of the bizarre happening. Perhaps the new day would reveal the prankster. 7 45 next morning they were back at the farmhouse. Anne ran upstairs to her home office to do photocopying. Howard waited below and heard annes terrifying scream. It was like howard my work boots were still on. They were freezed up. She was up where she was and she was standing with her hands like this. Standing and staring at the old desk computer she hadnt fired up for months. And the screen was glowing in the dim morning light. A message that shook anne marsan cook to the core. I took it so personally. I knew someone was out there for me. And that was that was very, very scary. Was that same someone preying on other women . His crimes growing ever more depraved . It had to be one person. There cant be that many evil persons around. Dont want him the more people we have, the more we save. He already owes me money for like 4 pizzas. We all get separate bills.

At safeway. Ingredients for life. On the morning after her Birthday Party, anne marsan cook made a terrifying discovery. I was really, really scared. It was november 2009. Anne and her friend howard were standing in an upstairs hallway of her Old Farmhouse near belleville, ontario. Staring at her computer screen. It was spooky. It was the first time in my life that the hair stood up on the back of my neck, because it was a it was a message directed personal. Yeah. Now they knew. The breakin the previous day, the theft of those sex toys was not a joke. Not even a bad one. All that time last evening they stood in this spot deciding a long discussion, should they call the police or not . They figured the cops would just laugh, so they decided not to call. After anne spent that night at howards and returned home first thing in the morning, this is what greeted her on the computer screen. Go ahead and call the police, it said. I want to show the judge your really big dildos. Eventually anne would wonder about the typos but right now quite suddenly she froze. Its like he had a gun at my head at that moment. This time they called 911. As they waited for the police to arrive, they came it to a disturbing conclusion. Whoever wrote the message must maybe some half literate crazy, judging from the typos, must have been hiding in the house the evening before when they debated whether to report the theft. He was listening to us. We cant prove he was there. We have no evidence that he was there. Theyd been talking just outside annes bedroom. Down the hall in this closet they found evidence to support their chilling theory that the the intruder had been hiding there. It was all upsidedown. So he he had to be listening to tell us a message, go ahead and phone the police. Then a second dreadful discovery. They searched the house to see if anything else had been stolen, and in her bedroom anne discovered all her underwear had disappeared. And that was sickening. Anne loved lingerie, owned more than 100 sets, all gone. She was a basket case. She really was. I got her right downstairs. Only to make a third gutwrenching discovery. Anne, we locked that door last night. And she goes yes. That door is open. She goes no, its not. But it was. And then the two of us looked at one 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 house and got to work. They took it seriously . They did. As soon as he walked to the office and looked at the computer screen, he pulled up and said get forensics out here right now. That same day amid the upset, anne and howard had a question for the Belleville Police. It was about a couple of disturbing incidents that happened up the road in tweed two months before. 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 not policed by the belleville cops. We asked them if they knew anything about it. I said it had to be connected. You told the police in . Oh, yes. Of course, how do you know about it . We dont know anything about it . They didnt know about if . They didnt seem to. Or didnt want to let on. Anne was convinced the incidents were linked. They had to be. It had to be one person. There cant be that many evil persons around. She begged the detective handling her case to investigate a connection. The police looked into the tweed case. I said it has to be connected. Then life took over, as life will, and anne let the matter drop. I was thinking, you know, they know their job. But Nothing Happened . No. My son was getting married, and there was a lot of things to do. Life was busy at the time. But anne was right about what happened up the road in tiny tweed, a terrible threshold had been crossed. Then the second one, everyone just went haywire then. Coming up, police close in on a suspect. He says, so youre going to tell us why you did this . Do they have the right man . Yup. Another pill stop. Can i get my aleve back yet . For my pain, i want my aleve.

[ ] tweed is one of those little canadian places that takes its ice fishing seriously in winter. Snowmobiling, too, except the road from anne marsan cooks place and about 150 miles from brenda and brians orleans. Here at tweed larry jones, a former government surveyor, the picture of grandfatherly respectability, was about to be caught up in a monstrous crime story. Larry has lived in tweed all his life, the last four decades on this lakeside lane called cozy cove. Cozy cove is probably one of the most ideals places to live. You have the whole lake at your backyard. It was a safe place also. Enviably so. We never had a problem here with anything, never. Though, there was one disturbing incident back in 2007 larry confessed. Thats when his daughter, who lives nearby, surprised an intruder in her home. Chris opens up the door, and heres this guy running out the door and runs in the wood. My daughter went behind him. The intruder got away, and that was that, or so larry and his family thought. Then came september 2009, and the events that troubled anne marsan cook. The first call came in at 3 15 a. M. , september 17th. A terrified young mother stribed being awakened by an intruder, blindfolded and stripped and forced to pose for degrading pictures. After a couple of hours, the man left. There are issues that would cause the police some concern. Greg ackley is a former fbi investigator and profiler. Dateline nbc asked him to evaluate these cases. You have an individual taking pictures. What does that say . It suggests that its an individual who is playing out a fantasy, that is fantasydriven behavior. Its also probably somebody who would do it again. So apparently he did. 13 days later another terrified call to the police in the Early Morning hours. Once again, a woman alone had been blindfolded, tied up, stripped and photographed, and then the intruder le
