Here is the deal. My wife has an uncle who is just plum crazy, he has attacked numerous family members, including my wife when she was 15, over a paper plate. He left my MIL on the highway in Mississippi and drove home to IL because he felt she disrespected him. He is a big bully, 6'5" 260lbs, and 54 years old. He cut his girlfriend up last year on the thighs and she didn't press charges(no idea shy the county didin't).
Last Monday (1/3) we went to drop some food off at my wifes aunts house at about 10:15pm. For some reason she is paying the uncles rent, I think he scared her into it. Her excuse is that she doesn't want to see him on the street. He also gives her a ride to work for $30 a week. When we pulled up he was there and got really pissed when we made the aunt take 2 more minutes to come out so he could take her to work. On top of that he started yelling at her when she got on the car and took off driving crazy. Of course I followed them to make sure she got to work okay. That night he went top my MIL house to tell her how mad he was and that he was gonna kill me and my wife and kids, or gut us like a fish to be exact. She made him leave and cussed him out considering he was talking about her daughter. He knows where we live. He can't get in without a ladder, but ???? he may be crazy enough to do it. He has also told other family members the same thing.
I'm thinking about calling his bluff some day, I have no doubt I could take him, but he probably has a knife. The question is, with all these threats, should I inform the police? At least to start a paper trail in case Ihave to use deadly force inside my house. Should my wife get a restraining order against him? I don't think he will try anything, since he has talked ???? in the past and never did, but he has hurt other people. He tried to cut one of his nephews throat, and he still has the scar. He also beatup his own daughter over some money, I think $12 or something.
Any ideas?
