I was with my kids mom about 13 years,had 2 kids with her and she left a few years back for a "bum" (seriously he had no place to stay,no job,no money,nothing.)
Anyways,I eventually was granted custody of the kids and she was only given supervised visits since "Bum" had already been arrested for battery on my daughter prior to the court date for the custody hearing. There was constant harassment and threats from "Bum",going as far as trying to attack me with a baseball bat in front of the kids during a visit. He went to jail for that one also and when he was sentenced to jail,made even more threats in front of the Judge,LEO and prosecutor. There is a very long history of him making threats towards me and attempts to get to me. He was even stupid enough to make threats towards a LEO in front of other LEOs and was knocked to the ground for it by them.
I have several reports on hand that shows the history and there are jail records that show everything. This went on for few years.
Fast forward 3 years and the threats are now starting back up once again.I should mention that he is 2 1/2 times my size as well. He says when he sees me he is going to do this or that to me,basically bodily harm and threats to kill me.It's been all verbal or through Facebook.I block them,they set up a new account and find me even with the privacy set up to where I shouldn't be found. I am not living in fear of this person,but I want to know if he is coming at me,making threats to do bodily harm,would I be charged if I were to use my firearm on him? It's not what I would want to do and would make him aware I have it on me without drawing it before I actually would draw my firearm. The last thing I want to do is have to defend myself in this way,but would because of his size and the past history that is there. I've moved on with my life with my kids and g/f but their mom and her "Bum" seem to have trouble doing so. If I see them in Wal Mart or elsewhere I do turn and walk the other way to avoid them,but it is only a matter of time before I will not be able to do so no matter how much I try.
I am just looking for answers.I do have a protective order on the kids mom to keep her away,but around here,it's like a worthless piece of paper. I can't get one on him since there is no blood relationship between me and him or him and my kids.
So what does a person do under these circumstances?
