went to my mum's to sort out their internet and got a call from my DH, very shaken and he said that the neighbours had been round and threaten him and were standing outside and not to come home I phoned the police from my mums and came straight home, I leaped out and told my neighbour that he had no right to threaten anyone and to make them feel like this, he called me a thing and that I should just get into my 'dirty' house.... my mum got out and said to him that she was sorry for shouting over the fence on sunday and that the arguement was with her and not us.... he told us to get off 'his' garden (not his its his parents house) and started to push me, at which point my dad jumped between us, and he said that he would flatten my dad!!! I said the plice were on their way, and he said that if they did come I wouldn't be living here much longer....... I went into the house and phoned the council and said that I want to make a complaint about the neighbours. The police turned up then and spoke to us, they had already been next door, and he said that they had missed out lots of information, I went and got the kids from scool whil the police were next door and broke down in the office...... I jus want a quiet life, wh is it that wherever I go, there is trouble

Just spoke to dh, and he thinks:
Contact local police station (go or phone), try to talk to the Crime and disorder reduction officer (CADRO) or equivilent.
Tell him everything, keep a record of exactly what happens.
Try to get other neighbours to complain about him and his parents even, chance is that they know what hes like but are too scared.

the other month the police came here at 4am, there had been a incident over the field and the dog leaded them to our house, spoke to the dad the next day and he said that his sons were arseholes but he han't noticed them acting odd, so they know what they are lke

Its hard when they are like that, but the police with the amount of complaints/proof that they need could look at an asbo for you.

DH said that if you believe he is out on warrent, try to work out when he is in the house, ring the police and they may send someone there. You can ring the police in total confidence, that way theres no comeback on you hun.

Anyway, off to be now!!! Hope it all works out for you. If you want to, CAT me, otherwise keep us all in the picture with what is going on.

Take care.

Can your doctor help by contacting the council? If he/she says that this situation is detrimental to the family's health, won't they take some notice of it?

Are you keeping a diary of what this horrible man does?

Can't understand why the police aren't a bit more pro-active.

Sounds like a dsigusting, horrible situation, sparkly.

Rest assured that if he actually does something (car / house etc.) you will stand an even better chance of getting police response.

I can't think what else to say except to use the police resources available to you, and possibly a cheap video camera hooked to your VCR should you need footage of this chap being a thug.

Maybe you could liaise with neighbours at the school gate, instead of where you live, and give them the correct phone numbers / names of people to call at the council / HA / police / community support officers etc. so it becomes a 'no brainer' for them...

the police said that if anything happens to the house or cars, than we will know who done it.. he is using his 'boys' to do his dirty work...

A camera, then, might be useful, although I appreciate it might atagonise the little shit... perhaps a cover one which is either very small or disguised as something else...

Yeah, he's too small to do anything himself, waste of space little fu**ker.

he is at least 6ft, and I am only 5ft, so it was scary fronting up to him

hub2dee · 11/05/2005 10:27

It's easy for someone outside your situation to tell you this is all bravado, but I can imagine how scary it is so I won't.

This kind of behaviour also has a legal description... 'threatening behaviour' etc. maybe the poster with the policeman dp / dh can ask ? Write all this crap down and then discuss it with the police regularly.

You shouldn't need to be exposed to this vile man. I'm sad for you and your family.

Evesmama · 11/05/2005 10:28

never mind if he thinks he's won.

i went through something similar at our first house and i know it is HORRIBLE

if you can be relocated, i would say do it..those logs of events will make you more concious of what he does and you wont have a spare thought unless its about him.

for yours and your families safety and sanity, i try to be moved.x

hub2dee · 11/05/2005 10:29

I think you're being incredibly brave. He won't do anything unless to you (or anyone in your family) unless he's desparately dim because the police will probably be happy to arrest him for any arrestable offence, esp. if as you say, he is out on warrant (not that I understand the legal situation at all)...
