The people who live upstairs from this guy, well they are two cops. I spoke to one of them the other day. I said "did you hear the music?" and he said "Oh yeah". So the cops know.

The two 80 (or 82) year olds who live downstairs know, I know, my husand knows and the cops who live upstairs from the 18 year old, well WE ALL KNOW THAT HE'S CRAZY!!!

I wouldn't knock on that door for all the tea in china. Years ago, (when he was 12), there were 4 fire trucks in front of my house.

We all came out (except the kid), and the police were there too. I said "you do know what happend don't you"??? and the cop said "yeah, we know but we can't trace a cell phone call but we know it's him". They knocked on the kid's door but no one came to the door.

I looked at the cop and said "you mean, you can't do ANYTHING??" and he just shrugged. The kid ultimately beat up his cousin and stole her car. She lives in the basement. She refused to press charges BIG MISTAKE.

I used to hear bodies being slammed against the wall next door. One day, the sister of this kid knocked on my door asking for help.

I went in and found a scene of people hitting people and yelling at each other. He was about 14 then. Went all downhill after that. It was only a matter of time before he went to jail and it came to be.

He pulled a knife on 5 chinese people 5 blocks from where we live. The people got in a police car, they went prowling, they found him, they fingered him and he went to jail (for youthful offenders) for over a year.

I believe he must be wearing one of those ankle things because he hasn't popped his head out of the front door since he came home after Thanksgiving.

I remember years ago, he would be up till 2 a.m. and blasting the stereo (or computer speakers). You cannot imagine the noise. But that was way before the cops moved in upstairs. I live right next door and we share a wall (sheetrock). He has no consideration for anybody.

So we really believe that it's only a matter of time before he "does something", and back he will go. Then I will have peace.

Or until the people downstairs grab a gun and go and shoot him.

Hey, you never know!!
