Their Following Him...

My husband called me a little bit ago saying that Danny and his brother are following my husband. They followed him from our house, to the store and then to the job site! They have just been sitting there watching him work. My husband made a good point though, he said as long as their following me they can't be bothering you at home. I don't want either to happen but I guess he does have a good point... Don't ask what the point is of them following him-I have NO idea at all. Maybe to scare him into not talking at court on Feb 2nd? That's the only thing I can think of, unless their going to try to beat him up or something... They won't get very far with that though. Hopefully on Feb 2nd he will be locked up for a loooooooong time, but who knows...His brother got him a good lawyer so it might be tough.

I guess I missed the previous posts about this story. Doesn't Danny have anything meaningful to do with his life. It does seem like a waste of time to just be following someone. I would suggest to your husband that he videotapes Danny. Take his cell phone or camera and aim it at Danny and at least take his photo, then quickly 'share' it on his computer, so that if Danny smashes his camera, the photo is recorded somewhere else. That way, there is evidence of Danny following your husband. I hope that your husband stays protected and safe.

This guy is crazy and we got him locked up on 4 different charges. He just got out of jail yesterday and now he is stalking my husband... I will tell him to do that since I really didn't think of that. Hopefully he can do that on his break or something or maybe his boss will understand that he should do this...

Do you have a restraining order against him? I think this might be a good idea if you don't. I believe I mentioned that to you when this all happened. I still think he should call the police NOW before anything happnens just to let them know that they are sitting there. I don't think the police can make them leave if they're on public property, but at least they will know whats going on and can keep a cruiser in the area.

If he is within so many feet they will tell him to leave. I don't understand what you mean..not for couples?

We do have an order of protection against him or something like that. It's like a restraining order, but not for couples. He is not supposed to come anywhere near us. But he doesn't care, he knows he just gets away with everything anyway... Yeah he said he was going to call so I hope he did. I keep checking on him to make sure he's okay and he's doing the same thing with me...

Oh the magistrate said its not called a restraining order for a neighbor, only if it is for domestic abuse... That is what we were told by the magistrate anyway. So we got an Order of Protection I think is what he called it. Same thing, just different name because its a neighbor not my husband that I am trying to keep away...

I would file stalking charges if I could...that might add a bit to his court hearing and turn things to the direction where they should be going like him actually going and spending some time where he can think about what he's done and what he wants to do with his life...

I don't know if we can but I can look into that... That would definitely help our case that's for sure! I really hope on Feb 2nd that they lock him away for good but I am worried because he has an excellent lawyer on his side and we cannot afford one...

That would certainly be worth a call to the police. Perhaps, they would be so kind as to give the brothers a set of matching bracelets? I know that money is tight, but it is certainly worth considering one's options, given how much trouble you're having in that area... Perhaps, a caretaking position that includes housing? Working as the manager of an apartment building? These would offer a fresh start away from this mess.

Yeah he said he's going to, so I hope he does. That would be nice if they both got locked up! I wish I could find something like that. There are really no jobs here like that, I have been looking because I thought of those things...

I hope that's the only thing they're doing. I hope that they're only trying to scare him off, and not do anything to your husband. And yes, I hope that they don't bother you too. And I hope that you'd come out with a discussion a few days from now that everything's all right, and he's already locked up!

I hope so too... My husband said he is going to call the police so I hope he did. Oh I wish my life worked that way...wouldn't that be nice? I know. Well, hopefully on Feb 2nd he will be locked up for good after we go to court but I'm not counting on it...

I was going to say why are they following him. I would phone the police, and get them charged (here seeing as they are going to court over something, and they are stalking and harrassing him).

Yeah, I figured someone would but I really don't know except that like I said maybe their trying to scare him into not talking at court... That is the only thing I can think of. My husband said he's going to call if they don't leave him alone. I hope he does.

I was wondering about this. I have been traveling quite a bit and with no notifiers I know I am missing out on things that I want to know about. So is he staying away now? What did the police say? I am glad the court date is coming soon.

Does sound like intimidation tactics. As long as they don't plan on shooting him, he should be safe enough at the job site with other people there. There are other people there, right? Perhaps he should tell his co-workers about it, just to be on the safe side.

I think it would also help you in court if your husband would record the days and time that Danny and his brother is following him. And if he can take a picture of both brothers during that time, much better. Keep safe, though!
