Well, here in Canada if you even threaten a thief with a gun you are in as much if not more trouble then the thief. All that really means is that you have to be a little smarter. I agree with everyone who has said get a dog. There are many good breeds that make great pets but will defend their house till death (German Shepards, Rotwieller even Collies). I have a rotty mixed mut and I have no worries about my wife as long as the dog is with her, that mut would fight to the death to protect my wife or me. Second, if you want to CATCH this guy out smart him. Use Randy's idea below, set up a video camera aimed at the location he like to peep from. Have your wife follow her usual routine, but you get up 2-3 hours early and get a good spot that you can see him and not be seen yourself. If you can, wait in site of where he was parking the car. After he arrives flatten all 4 tires, call the cops from a cell phone (optional if you are more vigilanty) and then sneak up behind him where he is peeping from. I would suggest you be carrying a piece of wood (for the fire of course) or a tool or board (that you were just about to use) just in case he has a knife or something. Now if you want to do the legal thing the cops are on the way and you have subdued the criminal. If you "forgot" to call the cops, the criminal will certainly get a lesson in leaving your family alone.
