This is becoming one of the hardest things I have ever done

145. How deeply painful this is Oak2004. I read all...

the posts, and thinking about it - when I came across again you saying he intends to do more.

I feel a little weird trying offer some advice on such a intense subject hat I have not had experience with. Yet it just occurred to me that I have participated in rallies, marches on our side (no violence) from Anti-Vietnam ones onward - so I guess that's nominally tangential.

If you haven't sent the tip in yet - try an intervention ASAP w other people, or even preferably let someone else do it in case it doesn't work!
Then he probably won't know it was you who will eventually turn him in. (you don't want to endanger yourself or you family)

If you or someone else turns him in, and he ends up in jail/prison there's a well respected group started in 1967 still in existence here in NYC who's model of helping prisoners return to society is used nationally, and internationally called The Fortune Society.

I only know this because decades ago I happened to be listening to a then listener supported NYC radio station (not npr based) that ran very liberal to radical and they were interviewing TFS which was then quite new.

My best hopes to you and your brother for a good outcome.
Please keep us posted!
