NEW: Florida man accused of stalking Century Village neighbors
 

Randolph Malcolm

A suburban West Palm Beach man is accused of terrorizing his female neighbors in Century Village by sitting in front of their homes, leaving notes and staring through their windows, the Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office said.
Randolph Malcolm, 67, was arrested Tuesday on three counts of stalking, sheriff’s reports show. Neighbors told deputies Malcolm started having problems as soon as he moved into the senior community just west of the city limits about a month prior to his arrest. 
During a brief court hearing at the Palm Beach County Jail, a judge denied his bond, according to online court records. The judge ordered him no contact with the victims, witnesses and board members of the community, and he was also court ordered a mental-health evaluation. The results of that investigation were not immediately available.
 

     

One neighbor on the community’s board said Malcolm started harassing her and two other women since his residence had plumbing problems, the affidavit said. The woman had helped Malcolm sweep out the water, but he became angry for an “unknown reason.”
He started sending letters to the community office and posted notes around the building, the affidavit said. The woman told authorities he would follow her around the apartment building to the mailboxes, yell at her and shine a flashlight through her window.
Malcolm would also follow another woman on the board, sit on her front steps and yell at her, the affidavit said. She believed he might have blamed her for the water leak.
According to the affidavit, he sent her 12 text messages to her cellphone “bothering her about legal and civil issues.” He would also stare into her windows and knock on her door.

  1. Bad condo association board that does not do background checks or interviews. This will always be the result.

  2. This seems to be an issue throughout the village. Sometimes background checks and interviews are made but the new unit owner is always on good behavior until he or she moves into their unit. Sounds like he has a behavior problem. I think I saw him a while back in a car on the four corners near the Haverhill entrance. He was letting every car go and we were behind him waiting so I beeped . When we got to the gate, he rolled down his window and cursed and gave us the finger. It wasn't worth it to argue with a jerk like that. It would only turn into road rage.

  3. Let's not jump to conclusions. I happen to know that the accused WAS investigated by UCO Investigations in 2014.
