My brother in law is in his early 20s and just got married less than a year ago. They just recently moved into a house in an old neighborhood. They haven't been there a month.
The first week cops show up because he was playing his guitar in the basement. Basement has no windows or doors to outside. I have no idea how you could even hear it unless you were standing beside the house. He comes home and finds a note on his car and the cops show up again saying someone called on a dog barking complaint. They have two dashunds, they let them outside to go pee and that's it. Always supervised and on leashes. Sorry I don't have a lot of info because I'm getting it second hand. Some neighbor told them that there is a crotchety old lady living behind them that has ran people off. After I read the note, my first thought was "hmmm, that's why the house was so cheap and for sale." If it were me I'd probably invest in some cameras. I'd put money on the lady messing with their house or dogs while they were at work or something. And yes this is barely readable. What would arf do? Update. Cops said there is nothing threatening about the letter and wouldn't file a report. Girls dad is a Firefighter for the city and is pissed. Cops also said if they get a call and show up, and the dogs are barking, he will get a fine. I told him to document with video per the noise ordinance on how long the dogs are out in their pen. Don't let them out for more than 30 minutes at a time. Their nice neighbor and the lady that moved out think its the old guy next door to the right. Would make sense because his car is parked on that side of the house. Old dude probably just went as far as the car and that's it. Both said he was a dick. Noise Ordinance pdf There are aleast 50 houses around you.
Home should be a place of rest & refuge. There are people around who have small children to the elderly. & young couples starting families. Home should be a place to recharge and enjoy your family.

Can you type out what that letter says? I can't read it for shit.

That bottom part sure sounds like a threat to me. I would get that to law enforcement but would also get cameras.
|

I would not leave and it would be my personal mission in life to make her as miserable as possible without getting in trouble. Yes to cameras.
|

Cameras, moat, sentry guns, moar dogs, and crank that amp up to 11.
|
|
Cameras a , trespass complaint followed by an arrest , Maybe even a restraining order
|
|
Cameras and start a paper trail for a future order of protection from that nincompoop.

Hi, ATF?
Yeah, I just saw the old lady that lives behind me carrying in a couple sacks of fertilizer, some PVC pipe and a spool of wire. All I can hear from her house is a bunch of yelling about "damn kids" and "I'll make them shut up." Just thought you might want to know. Address is 1234 Miserable Old Bat Street. Thanks, Concerned neighbor. |

Be niece and quite or they'll report you to The Human Society.

He needs to find out what the actual noise ordinances are for the area.
And cameras. |
|
I hate when people spell "quiet" as "quite". I have a female friend that does it constantly, even after multiple gentle corrections.
|
|
|
Quiet a bad speller. I thought my handwriting looked psychotic...
|
|
|
That's old woman writing for sure.
Cause no one used cursive these days... |
|
He needs to find out what the legal requirements are for dogs, noise, ect. Then do everything up to the legally allowed definitions.
Camera's should be installed before going that route though. I bet just putting a camera up that records people walking you could figure out how the nosy neighbor his. Just look for the person that stares at the house every time they walk by.

Chum her with some Ex-Lax and laughing choppers around you house. Also some Depends might help cause her to stroke out or make her mad enough to piss her pants. Metamucil and pureed baby food scattered about will help determine her commitment to her cause. Is she willing to go to the ends of the earth to defeat you? Are you?
Good luck, old people can really be curmudgeons. I know. I am one. |

Screen name?
That spelling and grammar has to be someone hear......... |

Your BIL has a new mission, make her life a living hell. Cameras everywhere. I would record this and play it on loop back for 10 minutes loud enough that it can be heard or make people come out to hear it. I would play it when I knew everyone was home, and turn it up on my loudspeaker. Whoever left this note for me, prepare ye self for war!!! I would then at 6am fire up the 12 inch planer and start making some new furniture. I also think my boat motor needs some work at 6am as well. All of this after I checked the noise ordinances. |

Nothing passive about that letter.
It was overtly aggressive. Definitely a woman's handwriting. I'd go to war with the old bird. |
|
Find out the hours of the noise ordinance.
Get some recorded wolf howls. Play on loop through guitar amp during non-quiet hours. Be wearing three wolf shirt when crazy lady comes over. |

get a camera and find the culprit
tell him to get a brinkman smoker. Fire it up every time the wind is in the right direction. Compost pile as close to her place as possible. Stir it when the wind is in the right direction. Tordon from a super soaker is a mean thing to do. next time law enforcement comes, tell them the lady keeps pulling this and you are sorry she is wasting their time. In college we made a potato cannon that launched our empty beer cans into the yard of the neighbor down the street that liked to F with us. if she has cats, get a box trap and eliminate with extreme prejudice. Buy a motorcycle and ride it early in the morning. PINK YARD FLAMINGOS Or instead of being a dick you could go over and present the culprit with pics after getting on camera and tell them to stop or you will press charges. |
