I spoke to the states attorney. She said they arrested him and he posted $300 bond and left. Apparently if he is not present for a court date because he is in a mental hospital, the case is dropped. So he is back on misdemeanor for this one. And, she told me they do not like to put mentally ill people in jail. So, tho they'll be building a case to convict, they will only fine him and let him go. She said they get the same people over and over again but that's life.
Which I guess is fine with me. Slowly I am choking off his ability to infringe on our lives.
I first changed our oldest's automatic tollway payer so he could not track where he is going - mine was already on my own acct. Then I changed our cell phone numbers. My number is the only one known to his family. And I dont care so much that its known to him ultimately - I just didnt want him to see who I was calling on the records since the acct is under his name. None of them knows the number of my son. He called here one Saturday but didnt speak to my oldest who had answered the phone because he was immediately hung up on. So I changed that number and because its with Vonage its not listed anywhere. I have not given that number to his family at all and have no intention of doing so. The guy who does our insurance figured out a way to get us separate from him on our car insurance. So that was done this week. Tomorrow I'm going to the Sec of State's office to pick up a change of owner title on the old car. He had that towed away and I'm taking my name off the title. The lawyer is going to court to get him to change the home city acct to my name as well as the cable. (She's also going to freeze his assets but it might be too late for that. Its all ready to go but she is scheduled for May 1 when the judge gets back from vacation.)
This leaves the mortgage - which has been paid but I have to check regularly and will do so tomorrow - or maybe over the weekend as I have an exam this week and being aggravated doesnt help.
I dont know if he is smart enough but he might re-enter the psyche ward to avoid going to court for this one. I'll have to ask the states attorney about that.
I dont know where he is now. His goofy emails (which I think I'll post here later) say he was going to Tel Aviv this past Saturday. Dont know if that went through. Being cut off from his family has made this easier. I have no responsibility to help and none to keep others updated or be updated myself. Nor do I have to deal with a group whose manifesto is "Do nothing and maybe it will go away."
No more emails have come out - at least none that have gone to my friend or my youngests. Besides having him arrested, we are just living our lives here.
I have made many plans for when the divorce goes through. I think it will be exciting, invigorating, and cleansing when we do them.
Time marches on.
