Hi all,
I've described about how I was stalked by a man, shortly after my divorce and moving into my first house.
He broke in by breaking thru my patio door with a big rock, coming after me with a gun and trying to shoot me. The gun had jammed, and the police arrived after I escaped to the neighbor's driveway when they called 911.

Fast forward: He has been incarcerated in various states since then: jail, prison, house arrest, probation, work release, and now on parole. The courts used to keep me informed of his status, but no more.

My aunt called me Saturday to tell me that while she and her family were in Charleston, WV for a doctor visit, that he, the stalker, whom she recognized, approached them begging money... panhandling. After accosting them, he moved on down the street to bother other people. I know this is against the law and a violation of his parole. I had contacted his parole officer to state that if he ever began behaving like that again, that I be contacted, since he was in that down and out state when he broke in and tried to shoot me.

My question is: should I contact the parole officer informing her of his activity, or just leave it alone? He hasn't bothered me, but I also know how he obsesses on past female acquaintances, blaming them for his status.

Your feedback appreciated.

Maybe your aunt should report him since it was her that panhandled from. I have a question about my stalker...

After the stalking, I sold my house, moved, got an unlisted phone #, but he knows I work as a teacher at the middle school. My job was even in jeopardy after the incedent, due to the threat of a nut coming to my school. The superintendent and administrators had a meeting about it! I can't afford to lose my job! For that reason alone, I'm reluctant to stir any attention, contacting authorities.
Maybe he has forgotten me, and moved on to other victims. It has been about 6 years since it happened.

Paper trail!

If you contact his PO there will be tighter restrictions on him, he need never know where it came from. A letter from your attorney would be best, that way it can't be buried in red tape and donut boxes.

Hi seeker,

Agree with all here, don't recreate any connections with this person directly to yourself. You've already had enough trouble.

Cheers, M I have a question about my stalker...

Thanks all of you!
After a night of rest, I am thinking it is best to leave this alone and let him mess up without my reporting it. He will.
Since he is brazenly panhandling already, which is illegal, he is probably also into other sordid activities, and it will catch up with him without my help!
Thank God he hasn't bothered me and I hope it stays that way.
