Afraid my sisters life is in danger

[littlesamauri]

What is the name of your state? VA
My 16 year old sister lives in VA. Her ex boyfreind is going wacko & verbally attacked her. She ran from him & he chased her down the street, picked her up over his shoulder, slammed her against a truck, screaming in her face, & spit in two of her friends faces who came to get her out of there & told her that he was going to slit the throat of who ever picked her up from his house. This kid is crazy. He also started punching his mother in her face when she pulled him off of her & his 2 best friends were there to witness it, but they are kids & they won't do anything about it b/c he is their "best friend" even though he said that he would slit their throats if they took her home too. He tries to talk to her in school like nothing's wrong. He knows he scares her. Both of his parents are cops. They have locked him in an institution for 5 days before. It hasn't worked obviously. They continuously have problems at home with him & do nothing about it.
Brief History: They "dated" for a long time and broke up. He couldn't handle it. He freaked out & had a break down. He has tried to be friends with her. She finally got him to stay away for a while, but he would still call even though she would ignore his calls he would leave messages, call her friends, & show up at parties. He would show up at places she would be & say that he was going to beat up the boys that were hanging out there. Time passed & being young and naive, she thought that the storm had passed & tried to be friends again. Now we are all scared that she is going to wind up dead. This is the worst that it has EVER been with him. He is still calling her 3 weeks later & leaving messages. Calling her friends, etc. She is scared for her life. This happened 3 wks ago & she just NOW told my mom b/c she was afraid. WHAT can be done? We NEED help, because she did go over there & this DID happen on his property, so we don't know IF we CAN do anything at all!

Gee, I don't know. Why don't you try CALLING THE POLICE? Why not try a RESTRAINING ORDER?

Call the cops.

Why don't try NOT being a SMART *SS. His parents are cops in the city it happened in. This is why I don't post on this board. I don't want anyone's advice. Thanks anyway

It doesn't matter that his parents are cops, she can still get a restraining order.

If she does NOT call the police or obtain a restraining order, than there is little else that can be done short of running scared.

None of us can protect her on the internet ... though she can always buy a gun, hire a bodyguard, get a big dog, move, or remain a terrified punching bag.

She has options. She (or mom and dad) just has to choose to take them. It's always POSSIBLE that nothing will happen, but until it is at least tried then it is GUARANTEED that nothing will happen.

Veronica (and everyone else) gave you the correct advice.
