do not judge a book by its cover

Do not judge a book by its cover.

Seriously I met so many kind of people in all these years.. so many stories behind it.. And I learnt one thing from it.. do not judge a person based on his or her appearance, position, money status or whatsoever related..

There was this case, a shocking news..
There was this previous tenant in the place where I am staying now.. he moved out from the house then only I went in.. I don’t really knew him but my friend who used to be his ex housemate told us something about him..

From his appearance and from the way he talks, he looks independent and reliable.. Plus, he is a course representative for that year business administrative batch.. You just couldn’t think of anything terrible from him..

And what would you know, he is a stalker..


wolf in sheep's clothing

This guy shared a room with his friend.. then the friend’s girlfriend will come visit friend once in a while.. Probably few times per week.. But, the girl won’t stay overnight.. Maybe she just take a shower then go back..

So this stalker actually hide a digital camera inside the bathroom, somewhere on the ceiling there.. one thing smart about him, he can actually estimate when the girl will take her bath, and quickly set the recording mode before the girl went into bathroom..

How he get caught then??

He put all his private homemade videos in his thumb drive, together with his assignments and other stuff.. He pass his thumb drive to one of his group mates, and this curious group mate happens to open one of his file and view all his shocking homemade videos..

Curiosity kills a cat..
Curiosity kills a stalker..

This curious groupmate told that guy’s roommate and roommate moved out immediately.. They did report to police. But, police can’t catch him right away based on what in the thumb drive.. They need evidence.. Something like ‘tangkap basah’.. Need to catch him on the spot with the evidence..

So my friend said that, one day in afternoon.. Whole bunch of people came to their house.. my friend was a bit scare because there were few police officers and some uni students.. Policemen look pretty fierce and talk to that guy loudly..
2 policemen actually shout at him right at his face, saying ‘ada buat atau tidak??’ you got do it or not?

Meanwhile, 2 other guys went inside his room and search for evidence.. They even found out 2 other unknown victims among the videos.. Videos taken at other condominiums.. How shocking…

My friend actually asked that guy whether he did this thing or not.. coz she just couldn’t believe that he is that kind of person. That guy admit, he said yes.. then he kept on saying, they all want him to die.. why couldn’t give him a chance.. Keep saying they all want him to die..

Things got so big till his mom need to come all the way from penang just to help him.. His mom actually begged the victim not to take any legal action on him..

So in the end, the girl didn’t sue him.. And I think stalker’s girlfriend dumped him too. If I were his gf, I must be really devastated and disappointed.. I will always wonder why he did this?? He doesn’t love me all this while? Sad thing..

Too bad, I always trust people.. Will never think of how complicated that person is.. In the end, I’m the one who always get hurt.. so, need to be smarter and be alert…
