I have to ask. Did you do a criminal background check on him ? If he has some issues and possibly needs mental help, you need to be careful on how you handle this.
I would first talk to him and mention that it is safer not to use company office after a certain hour and so he should not work so late in office. If possible, revoke after hours access (unless your office is literally a lock and key)
If that doesn't work, then you need to think about how to handle it. You can either fire him (but talk to an employment attorney first to ensure you have everything covered) or you need to give him strict warning (could backfire) that he cannot do this.
Document everything!!This could save your ass. It sucks to hire someone and put faith in them, give them a chance and then dealing with this type of stuff. Jake probably needs mental help but you cannot provide that to him.
