Foot fondler on the loose

I saw the headline and assumed it was google knowing my penchant for cute animal stories, but no... it was not that.

People in Lake Tahoe, Nevada, are being cautioned to secure their residences as a foot fondling intruder has been making their way around the area.

Two women staying at a resort in Stateline, Nevada, reported intrusions to their rooms on Sunday and Monday morning, the Douglas County Sheriff's Office said in a release Tuesday.

The women woke up to the intruder "fondling their feet," the sheriff's office said.

In both incidents, the women were staying on ground floor rooms where the intruder is believed to have gained entry through unsecured exterior screen doors.

This seems like a bad 60s movie starring all of those actors who ended up on sitcoms.

Waking up, alone in a dark room, being touched by an intruder? Nope. Can’t find even a little humor in this. Putting a focus on the unusual nature of the assault, using ‘tee hee’ alliteration.

Too much of a nasty throwback to times when SA wasn’t always taken seriously. Counterproductive, even still today. Doesn’t work for me.

Agree 100% on this.

Fondling is probably a most accurate word, but it lends the crime an undeserved humorous aspect.

I remember an incident when a woman called 9-1-1 and whispered so low she was barely intelligible.

She awoke in the middle of the night to find a stranger sleeping in her bed with her.

The dispatcher tried to get her to leave the house and go to a neighbor while police were enroute, but she was terrified and couldn't move.

Police arrived without lights and siren and when she was told they were at the front door she was able to get out and run for the door.

The guy woke up and came after her but her head start got her clear in time and the guy ran into the cops.

It could have been much worse.

To hear bare terror in someone's voice is heartbreaking.


There was an incident in San Francisco where a man was leaving a game, I think, when he saw two guys breaking into his car.

He called 9-1-1 and the 9-1-1 Rcvr gave him a hard time, if I recall correctly.

The tape was released and I could not understand why the dispatcher didn't escalate the priority.

You could hear the fear escalate in the kid's voice.

What's the appeal of somebody's feet?
