At this, Anastasia’s alarm bells went off. “Katie, why didn’t you say something before? When did you start seeing him?”

“I didn’t think much of it at first, so I forgot to mention it,” Katie recalled. “I think it was about a month ago. I saw him climbing out of our backyard.

They hadn’t lost anything from the house recently, so it didn’t seem like burglary.

Anastasia pulled up the surveillance footage and searched for the time Katie mentioned. Sure enough, the footage showed a man skulking around their front door.
