AIBU?

To report this to police? BIL urinating on DC’s toys.

Posted before. Having major issues with BIL and his partner who live next door (all very complicated) please look at other posts to fill in blanks if you wish.

Anyway, police are involved regarding threats, letting livestock out of sheds (which we have clear, video evidence of) and property being damaged.

We’ve been noticing glass around our children’s toys for a while now. Didn’t think anything of it but it was such a frequent occurrence that we decided to get a trail cam to see if it was malicious. We’ve had it set up for a few nights now, haven’t seen anything regarding the placing of any glass near our children’s toys (although we haven’t actually noticed any during this time and we check daily!)
But we did capture BIL urinating over DD’s picnic bench, ball and seesaw. I’m really grossed out by it. Honestly think it’s disgusting and obviously seems malicious. He is quite obviously very un well mentally to be doing such things. OH is very reluctant to report this to the police as they’ve been very slow/reluctant to act so far despite having clear evidence of him doing certain things. He’s lost all faith. Would they take this seriously. You can clearly see it’s him and what he’s doing.

I wouldn't hesitate to report. I remember one of your earlier posts. Sorry to hear it's not getting better.

Or maybe he's just an utter cock? Let's not stigmatise mental illness as a means of explaining poor behaviour. You can be perfectly healthy and still do very nasty things.

Goodness me. Yes I would report that too. That’s very concerning behaviour.

I'd report him too or scold him however if he is mentally unwell reporting is the best option, though it isn't acceptable even from someone who has MH problems.

Thank you all. I’ll be reporting him again.

It’s all MIL’s estate. She died 4 years ago and OH is the farmer. They want us gone so are trying to force us out. MIL split the land and houses 4 ways although the land was promised to OH and he worked for a pittance. We’re now having to go down the proprietary estoppel route which is costing us a fortune and is in itself very frightening but a barrister has told us that we’ve got a very good case.

Please report it even if they don't do anything about it specifically it will help to prove a pattern of harassing behaviour and will help you to eventually have him prosecuted for harassment and/or a non mol order

@Orf1abc sorry I didn’t mean to offend but we have reason to believe that he really is unwell. I didn’t mean it in a derogatory manner. I was being deadly serious. I suffer with MH issues myself (any wonder really?!) and would never use it to explain poor behaviour.

This is horrible and yes, you absolutely should tell the police.

This is a real physical violation of your DCs.

They could become hurt or infected.

They need protecting.

You have no idea (shudder to think) what else he has already done or will escalate to do.

Call the police to protect your DCs.

I am sorry you are having to deal with this. Is this your DH’s brother or his sisters DH?

I wouldn't hesitate to report this to the police, if nothing else there will be a paper trail of the abuse you are suffering at the hands of your bil

He's posing a physical danger to your dcs - yes report him. And keep a written record of his behaviour/incidents. Might also help your legal case?

What a vile bully

They are making it very clear they want you gone unwell or not his actions are disturbing and dangerous

Absolutely report. Targeting your children in this way is very disturbing

I remember your other threads. It all sounds an absolute nightmare. What a disgusting man he is - yes I would report it.
How much longer can you go on living in this situation though, as BIL will clearly not stop and wants to drive you out ?
