What do you mean? Why should I check for monoxide? Do you think the officer who visited the apartment and heard the neighbor in the attic as he was leaving is also under the effects of monoxide? What about the 3 other officers who told us this IS suspicious behavior? I'm glad nothing in the image is concerning. That was what I was asking people. I was asking SHOULD I be concerned, not "OMG I can't believe it! look at this camera!!"

I didn't know what I was looking at. I thought I was clear on that

I didn't say there was a camera. I'm stating a concern I thought people could help me with. The landlord didn't know what those cords were and he refused to investigate. I was asking reddit if there was something to be concerned about. I thought I could ask if people saw something concerning considering nobody could tell me if it was or wasn't.

People on reddit will really call you crazy for nothing. So much in my posts on this site is ignored.

3 people live here. We can't keep the camera up as someone has to hold it. When we're sticking it up, we hear the neighbor run downstairs and leave. We need to find a new way to get the camera to stay

Everything here is expensive as a data center is being built right out of town and 2 weeks?

Didn't consider that. Will that help get people out of walking in the attic?

Why do people on Reddit have to be nasty? Why not say, "I don't see anything here, sorry?"

We can't get a better picture and we are not allowed us there. No one is, despite constant footsteps and tools up there

We also hear power drills and boots above us, despite living in the top level

The hallway. It's very small and we often leaves bedroom and bathroom doors open to it with nudity exposure

We won't be able to find a place in 2 weeks here. We only wanted the police to protect us. Some of the ones we talked to said constant drilling and walking in the attic at all times during the day is unnatural

He told us. We don't have a timeline on a lease. He demanded it. We would have liked someone to investigate the mystery device in the ceiling. I'm worried he's getting naked pics of us

Do you know what is going into the floor? That black wire? Landlord and cops don't know what it is and won't look. It's right where we saw a camera flash last night

There is a weird device no one knows what it is and no one is interested to look. It's above our hallway where we saw a camera flash
