Original Post= Husband and Best Friend

Hello all,

OW is contacting my husbands ex-wife and has found our email address through eBay and emailed us.
Someone called my husbands father weeks ago and from 3am to about 7am threatened to kill my husband with an SKS. It didn't take long to put it together that it was her and or her husband who did this horrible thing.
She had already told her H that she had kissed my H and touched him in places that I won't say. You get the picture, I'm sure.
For years they were able to hide the fact that they engage in I guess what is called an open marriage. But kissing according to her husband was too intimate and he was very angry at his wife for what she did.
When D-Day happened we both made it VERY clear to her and her husband that we wanted NOTHING to do with them again EVER. (We were friends for about 14 years)
We changed our home telephone numbers, cell phone numbers and set up a new acct. with our Internet Service Provider so they could not contact us via email.
They are going around all of that and using other means to contact people in our family and us.
We gave them the phone numbers of our family in case of emergency and now they are playing games.
I am FURIOUS to the point that I feel I'm not thinking clearly.
We NEED for them to leave us alone and respect our decision to sever the friendship. That seems to be asking too much from them.
We have thought about calling the police to make a report and our attorney to send them a letter telling them to cease this nonsense. I don't want to make the situation worse because we are very clearly dealing with people who are nuts.
I am sitting here wondering what the heck they hope to gain by their actions. If there was ever a time when I thought I might be able to forgive her, it is long gone now.
If anyone has ever gone through anything close to this please help me by responding to this post. To those who haven't and have anything that I can go on please do the same.

All the very best to you all,

DLynn

Immediately call the police and file a report AND get a restraining order against them!

at the risk of showing my ignorance, what is an SKS?? <img border="0" title="" alt="[Confused]" src="images/icons/confused.gif" />

Hi Chris,

Thanks for your help. I will call the police and make a report. I will also find out if we can get a restraining order. (They don't live in the same state. But just a few hours away)
I am so afraid that if we just don't ignore them completely that they will "feed" off whatever we do and keep pouring salt into the wound.

Thanks again and God Bless you!

Hello rlk18,

to the best of my knowledge it is an extremely high powered semi automatic rifle that shoots bullets that are as long as your middle finger. Go figure.
Anyway, thanks for replying to my post.

All the very best to you,

I called the police yesterday afternoon and an officer came to our home. We showed him all the emails that we had received and told him about the threats. Get this...because they called my husbands father and threatened to kill him, there is nothing that we can do. The threat has to be communicated directly to the person affected.
The officer told me that we could go before the magistrate and take out a warrant but it could never be served on them as they live 3 hours away in a different state. They won't serve a person across state lines for a misdemeanor.
We did make a report and it's on file with the police but now I feel like they can just get away with all they do.
I will contact our attorney next.
If the police can't stop them, then maybe a big fat civil suit for harassment will.

What about a restraining order for all of you, including your H's father? Can't y'all get those? There has to be a way to have those served. I would seek legal advice.
