In reply to the discussion: I was threatened with rape today, NSFW [View all]Boudica the Lyoness
(2,899 posts)Shortly afterwards I received very credible death threat. He had his voice changed and revealed to me that he knew some private information about me. He let me know, he knew where and when to find me.
I really let this fucker have it on the phone and he wasn't expecting that, lol.
Anyway, before my hands/legs went numb, I managed to call 911 and they sent a squad car out to me. I was alone at my manufacturing building on an industrial park at the time. There was no one within screaming distance and I felt very vulnerable.
It took 50 mins for the copper to arrive and he had a bit of a laugh about what I told this potential killer. I also told the cop I should have told the wanna be killer, after he said he was going to kill me, to 'get in line'. lol.
My caller went into detail about my killing. I stayed on the line giving it right back to him and even asking to "repeat that last bit again". lol Believe me I was scared shitless but I didn't want him to know that.
I dealt with it with humor, like I do most things, but the best thing for me was carrying a pistol for months afterwards. I had no permit and so I called the local marshal and he thought it was a splendid idea that I was packing....one of the advantages of living in a very red area.
Because I was alone when I got to my business, I'd unlatch the door to the warehouse area, kick the door open and go in with my gun in a Charlies Angel pose, all the time shouting for the fucker to come out so I could plug him. Oh how I would laugh and boy did it make me feel better.
Just my way of dealing with shit.
Anyway my point is that the police don't/can't do anything, except take a statement. I was hoping they would put three of their best detectives on it.
