How about video tapping them so you have evidence and taking it to a state prosecuter? Check to see if your state has a legal aid office and talk to one of their lawyers for free. They know more about the laws and can better inform you. Good luck and be careful those people can be dangerous.

A bench warrant they won't come banging down  your door for her, but if she gets stopped by a cop for any reason and he/she runs her, they will find it and haul her off to jail... which may actually be the best thing for her, if she is out of control... it's sad to say.. but you may consider calling it in yourself and telling them where they can find her... she has to learn now.. otherwise when she is older she'll be worse

Go to the police and tell them what is happening, get a restraining order and have the police escort you to the house to get your stuff, do it now before it's to late, I see so many woman stay and get killed, I'll pray for you, be brave and go tell someone, they'll help you...God bless

I learned as a first aid responce that it is my will to help. People dont have to help unless they want to. Im so sorry this happened to your sister. It almost sounds like you blame the people around her for what happened to your sister. But... In fact she was the one taking the drug and did it to her self. \nIt might be against the law not to call 911. I would check that out better. I am so sorry this happened to your sister and hopefully all her freinds and family learn from the mistake she made. I hope none of then start on it ever. It is a very addicting drug and I am so so sorry your family has to deal with the pain.

obviously she shouldn't open them, but I'm sure it won't hurt to call the local law enforcement office. Even let yahoo know. I'm sure its against the law. SO first I'd call the cops and then yahoo.

Since this is a family member, you have to work things out.  Confront them privately and tell them to stop it.  Threaten to tell the whole family if they do not repay what they took-not just from you but your entire family.  \n\nDo not fall for sob stories.  The time for sob stories was before she took the money.  \n\nWhat did she need the money for?  Gambling, drugs, etc? Then demand that she gets counciling.  If it was for a valid reason, then you need to be firm but fair.  This is not how people behave; especially towards family.\n\nAvoid getting the police involved if possible.  This will only lead to being on Dr. Phil.  Change the locks and explain she is no longer welcome in your house.

Whatever you do, do NOT go home!  Call the police and tell them what street you are on, what direction, and the PLATE NUMBER of the car following.  Then the cops can come pull the person over and check them out.  Or, if you have no cell phone, drive to a police station.  Driving to a parking lot would not help, because there could still be a confrontation.  At least a police station might scare off the person following, then you might make a police report.

I've known of a person personally who killed his own wife because he told her to hold his money and not give it to him when he asked so he wouldn't buy drugs. She didn't and she's gone. I grew up around many people that used and are still using today over 20 years. There is nothing you can do but save yourself and walk away. More than likely, you've been telling them to leave it alone and they know the consequences. It's up to them. Don't be a victim and get your heart broken watching them kill themselves. THEY HAVE TO WANT TO STOP! Then you can help them by offering them information on different treatment programs. But until they want help, there is nothing you can do.

It sounds like you already know this answer, really.\n\nYour friend is subject to a search of his person, vehicle, place of residence, and property under his control.  The two areas that could trip you up are the place of residence and property under his control.  If the police can make the case that either of those two situations apply to your friend when he's at your house, yes...you could be in "danger" of being searched.\n\nI'll assume your friend isn't there long or often enough for anyone to conclude that it's his residence.  That leaves property under his control (and to a lesser degree, property he has access to).\n\nIf the police can show that your friend has access/control of your kitchen, for example, your kitchen is very likely subject to search.  If your friend has just walked in the front door to your house, and the police walk in behind him, your living room is fairly safe because your friend has not yet had an opportunity to develop any access or control.  \n\nBottom line: the longer he's in your house, and the more of your house he has access to, the more of your house might end up being searched.  And if he happens to have a key to your house in his pocket, an awful lot of your house is probably going to get searched.  If you *never* let him in your bedroom, and you can convince the cops of that, your bedroom should never be searched.  It will really all come down to what the cops can articulate later as to why they searched an area of your house based on your friend's probation.  It's a tough hurdle to jump, but it can be done...it's just not all that common in my experience.

Call up the police, on a pay phone. If you go to the cop shop have bail money.

Your friend still has rights, but generally one of the terms that your friend may have agreed to as part of the agreement for probabtion is that the police can search without cause any time they want as often as they want. Your friend would be subject to the same type of "harrassment," as you put it, if he/she were in jail or prison. The purpose being that, while you friend is not in jail or prison, you friend needs to obey the law at all times to avoid being sent to jail or prison.
