It was a Dupe -- Somehow someone used a different URL so it didn't just upvote it. When I submitted it I didn't catch it on there yet. In this case, having it twice I guess doesn't hurt so we can get some awareness.

#7I'm no spy, but that doesn't look anything like a bugging device. It looks like a large transformer (what kind of bug needs a 20-60W transformer??) and a crappy wiring job. It looks like maybe wiring for lights for a vanity mirror in the bathroom. I think the bottom of the image is a mirror reflecting a roll of toilet paper.

I would think that a bugging device would be much more discreet. :) That was a pretty ugly job. Must be something more to it.

Agreed. So that raises the possibility he may have a paranoid schizophrenic episode, which would certainly explain his disappearance. Hopefully he hasn't really left his apartment and is just hiding. Worst case, he is drifting aimlessly around the city as a homeless person.
