A man is accused of relentlessly harassing his estranged wife after she moved out, including by tracking her and setting fire to their shared Oregon home twice, according to court documents.

From Oct 7, 2020 through Dec 24, 2020, Joel Waters, 44, of Wallowa, Oregon, travelled to Boise, Idaho where his then-wife had moved into her parents’ home following an argument between the couple, which resulted in her wanting a divorce, federal prosecutors and court documents say.
