She Thought She Was Alone — Someone Had Been Watching for Weeks

Pay attention to the woman in the gray jacket. Her name is Whitney Caldwell. She's twenty-three years old, a recent graduate from Ohio State with a degree in graphic design. It's 7:42 p.m. on October 14th, and she's walking through the parking garage beneath her apartment building in Columbus. She's carrying two bags of groceries and scrolling through her phone with her free hand. Whitney moved into this building six weeks ago. The complex advertised twenty-four-hour security and controlled building access. She felt safe here. Now, pay attention to the figure in the dark hoodie, thirty feet behind her, moving between the concrete pillars. His name is Abebe Tesfaye. He's forty-one years old, originally from Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. He works night maintenance at a commercial office park three miles away. He has been following Whitney Caldwell for nineteen days. Within two hours, Whitney's phone would be powered off and discarded in a dumpster behind a closed Family Dollar. Within four hours, she would be reported missing by her roommate. Within six hours, investigators would discover that the parking garage security cameras had been systematically disabled—spray-painted over with black paint—two weeks earlier. Management hadn't noticed. Or hadn't cared enough to fix them. This was not a random encounter. This was the culmination of weeks of surveillance, planning, and patient stalking.
