Must admit if you wish a non violent solution, the proposal to send dodgy stuff to his house sounds a good idea as he will be too thick to throw them out.

A phone call from a concerned neighbour should do the trick or better still if its child porn, tear the envelope slightly so the contents can be seen, the PO will do the work for you.

Anyway, as you say hearts, got loads of comments, got it off my chest, and managed to calm my mrs down. I guess he'll eventually do whats right for him, or at least whats easiest or necessary to sort the situation out

Thanks all, i'll no doubt update at some point

gl hollow but if you give him one piece of advice it should be to do something positive ie dont just hope it will go away.

Send an anonymous letter to Social Services claiming he's abusing his kids. May not be true but who needs that sort of annoyance?

Fact is you dont need to be scared. Once you have registered your concern with the police any move he makes will cause him grief.

Im sure you should be able to get some kind of order which prevents him from hassling you. So what if he does? worst he likely to do is slap you or your mate about a bit and that will land him in trouble.

Best thing you can do is just ignore him , anytime he steps out of line just tell the relevent authorities , what you shouldnt do is lock yourselves away. Just act as normal , and look on it as a good thing if he steps out of line as it will give you an excuse to get him in trouble

There are some interesting answers here, but I am far from convinced that the solution to a problem is to start becoming a part of the problem yourself.

The vast majority of people that this thug is terrorising, seem like decent people.

Controlling a threat of future violence with an equal threat of future violence is ridiculous, in this instance.

In this instance, you would effectively be saying that the majority of decent people should start to turn themselves into indecent people, so that they can defeat a tiny, tiny, minority.

That is insane.

That line of thinking, will just lead to more impurities surfacing in the future, amongst people who struggled to live the majority of their lives, as decent people..

It just doesnt add up and it is, certainly, nowhere near good enough.. That is only my opinion though.

the people in the street should club together and find a very good solicitor with experience in dealing with unsocial behaviour.

It might cost you a few quid but the outcome will be legal and positive.

Your mate could always move as an option

get ur mate to confront him on his own but only at the front door and w/o using violence and have a neighbour across the road secretly film it. then either

a) the thug apologises to him n his wife
or
b) the thug lamps him. then u got him for assualt on camera.

so he may need to take a beating, every man does once in their life!

Knock on his door. When he open it, throw a bottle of water on him and tell him "next time you threaten my mate's wife it this will be acid".


Works every time.

There are several options.
1. Follow the law, involve the cops, play the innocent and harass him via the right channels.
2. Make life difficult for him ( i have something similar right now with a conman who was on Watchdog).
He is clearly a villain, he will be avoiding tax, not paying bills, signing on and working etc Use crimestoppers, DVLA, DWP etc tell lies if you have to.
3. Puncture his tyres, send him anonymous threatning letters, put his windows in at 4am and then do it again 4 hours after they are replaced.
4. Move house and forget about it.
5. Get a mob together and leather him.

Some outrageous suggestions in this thread. I'd advise against sending him dodgy porn in the post! If that goes pete tounge whoever sent it could get sent down for distributing k!ddie porn !

This country is laughable when a tw@t like this can ruin a whole street and the response from the authorities is to keep a diary :0. The police can't be blamed it's the system which is a joke.

Anyway if they do not want to move which is an option, the force is the only way to deal with it, speaking from experience.

You need to put the fear into him. You don't have to kill him or chop any of his limbs off.....just give the impression that this will be the end result if he doesn't back off ;)

The bottom line is to do something and be committed about the course of action. What you do isn't as important as the mental leap needed to be proactive. In doing this you turn away from being a victim. Cowering turns you into a victim and that will drag on for weeks, months or even years.

Putting myself into your mates position Hollow - id sort out a few heavies to go round break his arms and legs with a baseball bat and nail him to the floor.If hes really that bad then he deserves it,might cost you a grand but it would be money well spent, all done when you,re away on holiday..

Hollow, having been in a similiar position over noise nuisance but without the threats, myself, the answer is to move and move quickly. We got no joy from the local EHO, who when he went to visit was spotted by the wife laughing and joking outside in the street with the troublesome party. Living under such stressful situations can cause ruptions even in the most stable of marriages. So much so when we moved we would be listening for noise or lack of it from our new neighbours because it had made us that way.

Until you have lived with these pressures you just don't appreciate what they are going through.

This is ridiculous.

Fack the law, they won't help unless the facker has unpaid parking fines... threatnening your wife does not make them any money in fines, so they do not give a flying F uck.

Regardless of how hard he is... there is always somebody harder.... you have to fight fire with fire... unless he is a pikey... in which case move.

Call the police 24/7....... Get your neighbours to do it aswell........ they will soon get**ed off with him and do something about it.

Im not a fighter either,I do know though that if anyone scared my kids( no matter how big he was) im at least going to have a go (its his kids F.F.S)
