Jaime Rodriguez Arrested Again in Scottsdale Slingshot Stalking Case Tied to $100,000 in Condo Damage

Investigators cite GPS surveillance, an AirTag and slingshots as key evidence in a months-long campaign.

Overview

  • Rodriguez, 44, now faces four counts of stalking and four counts of endangerment, according to Scottsdale police and Maricopa County court records.
  • Police say rocks launched by a slingshot shattered dozens of windows at an Old Town Scottsdale condo complex, with damage estimated at roughly $97,000 to $100,000.
  • Detectives placed a GPS tracker on his vehicle in January, later reported hearing a slingshot-like sound and breaking glass during surveillance, and recovered two slingshots near the scene.
  • Investigators say he called his ex-wife’s bank more than 1,700 times and that an AirTag was previously found hidden under her car’s hood.
  • He was first booked on Feb. 14 on criminal damage and endangerment counts, then arrested again on March 3 on stalking charges, with a court appearance expected later this month.
