Man was arrested after being caught in the bushes peeping on near by passing people. He was located outside the mall behind bushes watching many people as they passed by. Though, the reason is unknown why he was preforming such strange behavior. When the officers saw what he was suspected of doing, they summoned the mall cops, to watch him and make sure he didnt do anything to hurt anyone. They then arrested him, knowing he was peeping behind with such a long pursuit.

Honestly I would never want to be at a mall where someone was following me around, also known as stalking. 

The man was later charged with Peeping tom and obstruction of the officers. However, in my opinion there should be a heavier charge, such as perhaps solicitation.

What if he were to follow these innocent by standers home? What do you believe this man should be charged with? Would you call the police if you saw him peeping at you from afar?

    I'm no expert in law and I don't really watch Law & Order so I don't really know all the sentences and verdicts. But I do watch Criminal Minds, and yes, they do have psychopathic stalkers that may just look like a weird kid and then end up viciously murdering seventeen people. I'm not saying that every creeper in the bushes will be like that, but he obviously isn't right in the head. I think they should fin him and based off if he's seriously mental they should either put him in jail or a mental facility for a few years(1-5).

    I think this was the right call by the law enforcement. Like you said, what if this man followed one of these people home? This could have gone as far as robbery or even rape and murder! This does make me want to be more aware of my surroundings. It's just a good thing that this man is being put away for such unusual actions. I'm just glad the law enforcement took action. I love your blog and can't wait to see more posts!

    I completely agree with you. Many people may view it as not very bad; however, no one would like to be followed around by a stranger. On television it is seen how many people who were being stalked tried to move away and are much more conscious of their surrounding. I believe that he should be charged because of his suspicious behaviors. The police forces all around the country should be more careful while dealing with these kinds of people for the safety of the public.
