What is the name of your state? Illinois
My question concerns my wife and her immediate family. Recently, her ex-stepfather, Randy, was released from prison. The reasons for his incarceration include, but are not limited to, domestic violence and attempted murder. This person had abused my wife and her mother and tried to kill them both with a shotgun while high on cocaine.
Randy has served only three years of a maximum six and was released for "good behavior". He has a history of drug and alcohol abuse. These were reasons attributed to his "blackouts" and generally anti-humanitarian misdeeds. He is an ex-carpenter and stocky. Strong and abusive do not go together.
With his release, he lives only one-half mile from my mother-in-law's house. She lives with her new husband and my wife's little brother of 13 (who was not present for the attempted murder and was too young to remember the domestic violence). My wife's little brother is Randy's son.
Currently, Randy harasses my mother-in-law and brother-in-law with about 16-20 phone calls a day. He has threatened that his son is not being taken care of properly and has stated that he will "take care of (my mother-in-law)" in a menacing manner. We suspect that he is drinking heavily again since his release. The police have been notified, but we still stand helpless as to what can be done and what we can do to stop this madman. If you can help with any advice, it would be greatly appreciated.
