"Situation Pig"....Update
Thanks to everyone who commented for the advise on my "pig situation." As far as changing my number and routine, well, I do take different routes to work now and I moved from my mothers to the other side of town. However, I am sure that the pig knows where I am living. Like Jen said, I don't feel that changing my number, routine, etc. will do much good. He is, after all, a cop. He has access to a lot of information that the average stalker (if there is such a thing) does not. Unfortunately, I feel that for most law enforcement officers to catch a criminal, they must think like one. Not only does he have the ability to think like this, he also knows how to do it and get away with it. This is why the situation is so scary.
Kris, my boyfriend, has become very worried about me and my safety. His grandmother worked for the police department for several years, so last night we decided to go and talk to her about what options we may have in resolving the situation without retaliation. That's my biggest fear, the retaliation. If this guy wasn't a cop there would already be a restraining order and criminal stalking charges. I feel so helpless. So does Kris. I think if he could he would be on this guy in an instant, beating him severely! (don't worry, we both know that's not an option, cop or not.) You can't really blame the guy!
Anyway, after we explained the situation to his grandmother, she was livid! She immediately contacted a very prominent lawyer in town (also a close family friend). I have been advised to keep all the text messages and cards that he had sent and to keep a log of the times and places that I run into him or he makes contact. We do know his supervisors name and number, but have been told that that will be a last resort, as retaliation is a strong possibility. I now have a notebook with me in my truck at all times and all contact will be recorded.
Grandma then called a close friend of hers who is a sheriff deputy (a good thing because he is not in the same department as pig fucker). He is a very kind hearted man and acknowledged the severity of the situation. He is to be doing some checking into the background of the pig (without letting onto anyone why). He told me not to be afraid a retaliation, as if it does happen I have a multitude of witnesses (him included) who are aware of the situation. I was told that my safety is the priority here. I was informed that there are ways in law enforcement to handle a situation quietly. Not sure I know what that means and not sure I want to!
But, now I have even more mixed emotions. I want this to stop as I am terrified. But, now that it seems we got the ball rolling in nixing the situation, I find myself even more fearful. I am just not sure I can trust anyone in law enforcement anymore! I suppose all I can do now is play the waiting game and see how it all unfolds. Lord be with me!
Hope you all have a great weekend! And to all you mommies, Happy Mother's Day!!
