Okay, so I have this sister. She is severely physically handicapped, owing to a car 'accident'.
Sadly, she has attracted the attention of a psychotic, possibly dangerous, stalker. He has already threatened to pour acid in her face. He's a completely deranged madman in general. He is wheelchair bound. This happened because he jumped from the fourth floor of a building once, when he got rejected by a girl. He has seen my sister twice, she rejected him too, told him the second time he is a creep and that she wanted no contact whatsoever again. After his text messaging her in the middle of the night, sending weird 10000 word emails that take an entire day to write, he yesterday showed up at her house. He violently tried to force his way in. Kicking and shouting and cursing and calling her a filthy whore and threatening her. Sadly, my sister is familiar with the ways of this sad world, so she lives in a semi-fortress, with a custom-build door able to withstand stalkers. He is not the first one.
She called the police. The police showed up remarkably quickly. Six of them. So far, so good. Stalker creep immediately changed his tune to 'pityful undangerous guy in a wheelchair'. The police asked him what was going on. 'She's got my gold! She's got my gold!', he yelled. 'I have an appointment but she refuses to see me, for the third time this week, all I want is my gold'. My sister for a hobby makes these little jewellry like things, whatever they are called, and they use some small amount of gold paper. Nothing of value, perhaps ten euros for an afternoon of making a handful. He brought some with him, and they both used it. Mind that he used her stuff as well, of greater worth, which is still an inconsequential amount.
Anyway, the police now immediately deemed this a case of 'financial dealings within a relationship'. Or some such. So no longer was this case treated as a dangerous man trying to force his way into a home. With Lord knows what in mind. No, instead, my sister was now questioned by the police why she would not return 'his gold'. My sister did not even get the chance to tell her side of the story. Which, at any rate, she would have been barely capable of it, becuase she could barely walk, was in a complete fright, and in total shock. She just stood there crying. Afraid, desperate, abandoned. The bastards then searched her house, with her stalker sitting there laughing. Then they forced (severely pressured) her to pay him money. Meanwhile her door was badly damaged, all the flowers in front destroyed, her lamp destroyed, the whole front of her house was quite clearly ravaged, at not inconsiderable financial damage.
So. Yeah. My severely handicapped sister stands crying in her house, in physical and mental agony. Her stalker is laughing at her, while the police force her to pay money to him 'for compensation'. I have never heard a more deranged story in my life, I talked to her on the telephone earlier today, we talked for three hours. I tried to calm her down, but in fact I need that myself, I am seething with rage, foaming at the mouth.
She is now terrified he'll come back. She carries a knife with her in her own home, even when going to the bathroom. She doesn't trust the police anymore and refuses to even file a report against this guy, afraid for more police humiliation. She sits in her home in mortal fear, she needs to see her doctor this week but doesn't dare step outside.
What she needs is a gun, to protect herself. She can not rely on the police. I do not need a gun myself, when I find out where stalker lives, I'm going to kill him, but I'll do it with a blunt object.
The police is useless. What a bunch of incompetent. Unbelievable. How dumb can people get? They go to a distress call from a woman besieged in her own home, and they misread the situation into forcing her to pay compensation to her attacker. Literally pressured her into getting her wallet, asking her how much was in it, and ordering her to pay all of it. Then they shook hands with the assailant, and left. I am beside myself with rage.
