Angie’s Drama

My very best friend in the world, Colleen, and her family (brother and mother) have been dealing with an absolute insane neighbor woman for nearly 20 years. Crazy, Insane Neighbor X has lived next door to the property since the grandparents lived there. When Colleen and I became friends (nearly 15 years ago) I got my first taste of Crazy, Insane Neighbor X. She would call the Heights Police for the slightest thing. When they had Dutchess (sweetest puppy dog, RIP) they would get ticketed regularly, compliments of Crazy, Insane Neighbor X.

Fast forward to the present with John and Dan living there. For all the improvements they’ve made to the house and landscaping they don’t deserve her crap at all. If I’m correct, they’ve lived there almost three years and have had the police called on them 100 times. Only getting two tickets (for noise). That seems a tad bit excessive, doesn’t it?

Crazy, Insane Neighbor X has intensified her stakeout. She now has NO TRESPASSING signs and even a security camera to monitor her property. (insert random mumblings about aliens and conspiracy theories here) I’m sure she has a shelter in her basement with enough food, water and Robert Heinlein books to survive the millennium, as well. Well, John CROSSED THE LINE last week. She had him arrested on criminal tresspassing charges. It seems that John and his buddies were playing soccer with his girlfriend’s 10-year old in the backyard. The ball went into Crazy Insane Neighbor X’s yard. John ran over, got the ball and continued playing. So of course, she has a tape of John retrieving the ball on her property. I’m guessing if the 10-year old had gotten the ball, she’d be sitting in Juvie Hall right now.

Would this qualify as harassment?
