The information you were so rightly trying to pass to the sherriff, should instead be passed to the prosecutor, in writing in a registered letter. You really can’t deny information you know someone else has a copy of and you signed for, unlike a phone call or interview.
And, yes, anonymously if need be.
Your friend was right on the money - only barking up the wrong tree.
And good luck to them all, I say.
Buy a gun.
Learn how to use it.
Use it when needed.

I resurrect this thread because Sampiro linked to it in his Pit thread about Dinah-the-borderline-personality-disorder-bitch.
I was wondering about this particular thread’s hosebeast just the other day. Sampiro, could you favor us with the tale of what finally bounced him back into the hoosegow?
It may actually have been (one moment to see what pseudonym I used for him…) Earl’s going to Samuel Jackson after all. His behavior grew increasingly erratic, he stopped even pretending to work, started making increasingly insane claims (“there’s a guy in Atlanta who’s got ten stacks* for me” [*stacks evidently is gangsta slang for $1000 or $10,000, not sure which, not that it matters because ultimately it was up to] “Yeah, I can’t get hold of him, he had to leave the country, but he’s got $400,000 that’s MINE!”).
He got pulled over driving drunk with a STOLEN license plate and was released for $1,500 bail!!! I could not believe that one. If I did that I’d be on Parchman farm “out there in the field sangin’ Oh Alberta Berta, WHOA! Oh Lawd Gal!” even though I’m a resident of Alabama. We were sick.
BUT…
when he went in for his arraignment (or hearing- not sure of the terminology for these things) on some unrelated matter where he expected to pay a fine with his mom’s money and be back on the street, he was arrested in the courthouse on a whole long list of other charges. It turns out there were felony warrants out for him that nobody even knew about from before his incarceration- I’m not sure what for but he went to prison 4 years ago and they haven’t expired- plus it turns out he didn’t have a valid driver’s license anywhere (the mom had given him over $1000 to pay his excessive insurance and it turns out that there was NO insurance, he just gave her a made-up quote and pocketed the money, and on top of everything else no sooner was he arrested than his mother began gettign ISF notices from her bank because he’d cleaned out her account (which that was actually not his fault- if the guy who owed him $400,000 had just been at home to answer his call all would have been fine).
Anyway, bail’s set at an extremely high sum (around $100,000) which his mom couldn’t pay if she wanted to because she knows he’d skip and she’d be wiped out. Besides this, when she went to visit him in jail he had a crying breakdown and confessed a lot of other stuff he had done she didn’t even know about (stealing jewelry from what she thought was her top secret hiding place was one) and rather than the “I just appreciate your honesty” scene he was perhaps hoping for she officially hates him now.
He’s so apologetic for his past actions that he’s, of course, pleading “Not Guilty”. However, his own attorney (court appointed) has told him that while he has the right to do that, he’s absolutely screwed because most of the several charges against him are open-shut-no excuse matters and he’s looking at several years mandatory and minimum. He’ll be in a totally different age bracket when and if he’s free again.
So this one actually had (at least for a while) a happy ending: he’s back in prison and to the best of our knowledge no one’s dead. I don’t know if ‘Earl’ going to see Samuel Jackson helped, but he was definitely put away because several diverse law enforcement agencies all compared notes finally.
Thanks, Sampiro.
Wow. As you say, if you or I tried to get away with 1/10th of what jerkface here has, we’d be put away for life. How can some folks fall through the cracks for so long?
The one brag he made that I think may have some truth to it (unlike the claims that his Masonic ring [inherited from his dad] made judges let him off, or that he was in the Mafia, or that he worked for the FBI- all actual claims) was that he was an informant. I can totally see him ratting somebody else out to gain leniency because I’m just guessing he goes from Macho Double-Y Alpha-dog He-man to Roger Rabbit when the interrogation room door closes.
