Detective Inspector, the information you just gave me about the physical description of the visitor ought to be enough to get a satisfactory identification of the man. There can't be that many people of that height with that particular birthmark, and fewer still in the area.
I have made arrangements to call on the ex-girlfriend to attempt to make further inquiries.
Talking of inquiries, did you mean to say fiancee? We were discussing the vengeful ex-girlfriend, not the soon-to-be bride.

So far we've had no luck tracking him down, and the rest of the neighbours don't seem to know anything. We've called in some favours, and have a few leads on the go. I reckon we'll have him by the end of the week.
Urgh you're right, I meant ex. Anderson was so busy shouting at me for one thing after another, I got distracted and must have mis-spoke. That man has an official warning going his way if he doesn't stop with the backseat driving. He can call the shots when HE'S in charge *scowls*
Oh, Mr Wells reported a break in this morning, and his tv and laptop computer have been stolen, as well as a few random odds and ends- books and dvds. He couldn't swear to which ones they were, he just knows there are less than there should be. It could be a coincidence, but given the past few weeks we're going to be looking into it, and we've instructed him to install security cameras.

I'm amazed you didn't suggest it sooner, or that, given his paranoid inclinations, hasn't done so already.
I'll be at the ex-girlfriend's soon. Will keep you informed via text.

Yes, well believe it or not we don't actually have unlimited resources. If some paranoid crackpot is getting hysterical with strange theories, we can't waste time and money on giving him top of the range security without concrete proof. Since nothing illegal had happened before we obliged him as much as we could but until now we really couldn't do anything more than we'd been doing.
Anyway he seems happier now we've got cameras about. I'll look out for your text.
