I wasn't sure where to post this, but I need help.
I have been avoiding an abusive father for a decade. I've made it very clear that I want no contact with him or the rest of my biological family. I've moved several times over the past 5 years, just because he always manages to track me down. This time, I moved over 500 miles away. He showed up at my door last night. I just spoke with my previous landlord who let me know that he and a Sheriff had shown up at my old address looking for me. I am almost 30 years old. If I do not want to be in contact with someone, I believe that is my choice. Every time I try to contact the police when he shows up, they essentially laugh it off and say "Oh, it's fine... he's your Dad!" No, it's not fine. If this Sheriff helped that piece of work track me down again, am I entitled to sue the piss out of that Sheriff? I could understand him assisting him track me, if I were a minor that had ran away from home, but as I said, I am almost 30 years old. I now feel unsafe in my new home. I'm going to be paranoid and looking over my shoulder every day now that he knows where I am. It's going to ruin my day-to-day life and I already feel like I need to relocate, again. I just want this to be over with. Any help/advice would be greatly appreciated.
