Threats from the Psycho Sister-In-Law

January 2005 was a very busy month. After having caved-in and operating from a very weak position in terms of just about everything associated with the divorce and custody at this point, PEW and her “associates” simply ramped-up the terror campaign. So, if you have any thoughts that giving-in reduces the interactions and craziness associated with a high-conflict and disordered ex-spouse - think again. It gives them carte-blanche to press the pedal harder to the metal. Psycho-SIL (PP) decided to interject herself into the festivities, as she would do from time-to-time. To read her bio, click here: PP, Her Story. Think diagnosed bi-polar, stalker, substance-abuser, sick twisted bitch.
Apparently, she was going to stand up for what was fair for her little sister. Apparently, the agreement to which PEW signed off after making some serious alterations wasn’t good enough. So, the big, fat, tough-ass decided to flex her email muscles…
LM,
First, I don’t want you to email me back that I should not threaten you. These are not threats. They are merely statements of fact which I will act on immediately if I do not see positive responses to my requests or suggestions that are most beneficial to my nephews. It’s been apparant to many people, both in my family and professionals that have been dealing with your divorce and subsequent custody issues, that you have only been concerned for what is best for YOU-not your two little boys.
I finally settled my lawsuit on Monday. Suffice to say that with pain & suffering, after my attorneys fees have been taken out, I won’t have to worry about money for the rest of my life. Halfway through my case, I changed my representation to [Dewey, Cheatum, & Howe LLP], as they were former customers of mine at [Company from whom I embezzled funds and got fired] and I felt that they were more at the level necessary to deal with the legal team that the University Hospital had working for them. It was the best decision I ever made.
I’m telling you this because I want you to know that I now have unlimited resources to pursue the necessary legal remedies to get my nephews the proper support from their father without their mother having to go through a constant onslaught of harassment on every tiny issue.
First and most importantly, I want you to return the van to PEW. Why any kind of man would want his former wife, someone he once loved to be driving his two young sons, whom he supposedly still does love, around in a less safe, less mechanically sound vehicle 90 percent of the time, merely so he can feel safer when he makes the out of town drives to see his new girlfriend and her family, I just don’t understand. Especially coming into the worst driving weather of the year-I’m at a loss-what kind of a MAN are you, I mean, REALLY? However, my attorneys think that based on the piles of harassing emails PEW received from you trying to get her to agree to the deal, telling her you wouldn’t sign the divorce decree etc, we can get a judge to see that PEW signed that agreement under duress. No problem. Oh, and she will NOT be paying for the repair on the car - you knew that was the inferior car when you gave it to her.
Secondly, I want you to sign an agreement immediately for both the boys to go to therapy. Supposedly this is already in the works but I’ll believe it when I see it. I want you to pay for half of the co-pay for each of them. Not only to deal with the divorce issue but I suspect S1 will need separate sessions for his weight problem and his anger management issues - both of which you are directly responsible for. You will pay half of those co-pays also. Your Mommie Dearest technique of not letting him leave the table for extended periods of time from the toddler years on no doubt led him to his now unhealthy eating style. His sudden outbursts of anger are something many people have witnessed in you over the years both personally and professionally. My lawyers are willing to subpeona your work colleagues, former friends and neighbors, your first wife, your former in laws (1st-wife’s and PEW’s), S1’s teacher at [Good Churchschool] that you bragged to about making him sit at the table for hours etc……as I said, I’m willing to do whatever it takes…..I’m also concerned that you would introduce the boys to your new girlfriend and have her stay over the same night, without easing them into a comfortable relationship with her first. Obviously, no one can stop you from having someone new in your life but any professional is going to question your method of how you “helped” your sons adjust to this newest change in a long series of recent changes…..
Third, You will keep the heat on at least 72 on so that it is warm before the boys get to your house. They do come home sick everytime from your house and everytime I was ever at your house when PEW still lived there you were always harping on her to keep all of the lights out and the heat low. After all, she gets stuck paying for all of their doctor copays, their meds, their clothes etc. I could not believe the emails I read the other day from you. You never buy them any clothes. PEW and my mom buy all of their clothes and nice ones. You send S1 to school looking like a ragamuffin. You should be ashamed of yourself. Frankly, I don’t know how you look at yourself in the mirror.
Finally, unless I think of something else, don’t harass my sister anymore. Have your lawyer talk to her lawyer. Plus, don’t bother trying to talk to her about this-just deal with me. She obviously knows at this point that you have manipulated her and that my father and I need to take over for the boys’ best interests. Let me know if you are going to give her back the van - If I don’t hear from you by 2PM Friday, I’ll begin to put things in motion on my end. If you aren’t willing to do the van thing and the other things I’ve mentioned above, stop harassing her and let her get on with her life, start doing right for the boys once and for all-we’ll be going to court for full custody-and it won’t be [PEW Attorney #1] you will be dealing with next time-and it won’t be pretty because you’ve made a lot of enemies over the years and I intend to have my team of lawyers from [Dewey, Cheatum, & Howe LLP] call each and every one of them if necessary. By the time we are done with you, any proceeds YOU make from the house will be gone.
Just remember, YOU brought this on YOURSELF, trying to squeeze every last penny out of PEW at your sons expense. Let me know how it’s going to be.

Wow! This crazy psychotic bitch really, truly believes that she has all of these connections and all of this power to influence! The above is pure fantasy. Quite deserving of a fantasy email reply, wouldn’t you say?

lmao. Oh my god! You will keep the heat on 72! You hear me? We all know that it’s temperature and not viruses that make children sick.
I hope you never answered her.
January 26th, 2009 at 10:08 am
In the heat of my mess? No shot. I simply forwarded it to my attorney who made contact with PEW’s and demanded a cease-and-desist.
January 26th, 2009 at 10:11 am
Wow. That’s all I can say. Could you please elaborate on how this is “fantasy”. That would be even more amazing if this was all a fantasy. How did you feel when you got this email? Scared? Or upset?
January 26th, 2009 at 10:35 am
You must have misunderstood. I coined the term “Fantasy Email Replies” as a take-off on all of the “Fantasy Sports” people play. The above email is a reality, not fantasy. Fantasy email replies are the ones that you would like to send, but never would. Sort of a “vent” exercise.
When I got the email, believe it or not, all I could do was roll my eyes. She’s a blowhard. Always has been, always will be. Aside from forwarding it to my attorney, it just went into the file and I didn’t give her bizarre rant a second-thought.
January 26th, 2009 at 11:44 am
I actually laughed out loud. I could see her sitting at her computer with all her fake muscles thinking she was preaching the word of God.
“you will keep the heat on at least 72″ was my favorite. My house is consistently at 64 during the day and down to 60 at night. If you are cold . . . put on a sweater. Having the heat at 72 would make me so uncomfortable, that is just too hot.
I do notice PP claims to have “unlimited resources to pursue the necessary legal remedies”, and yet PEW needed to ask you for a loan to get a car when she was turned down for a lease and then her house almost foreclosed. Where were PP’s unlimited resources then?
January 26th, 2009 at 12:18 pm
LMAO! omg I was bustin a gut! YOU WILL do this… and YOU WILL do that! Ok super attorney!
I give you credit for not sending back a response of a simple….. LMAO!
I’m sure you were shaking in your boots and complied! LOL
January 26th, 2009 at 2:10 pm
Holy cow. Hmm…my fantasy email reply would have been: “Would you like fries with that?” Short, but sweet.
I would never keep my thermostat at 72. My god! Could you just imagine the gas bill? That’s insane!
January 26th, 2009 at 7:31 pm
What I meant about the “fantasy” was whether or not it was true that she had enough money to carry out her threats. This horrible email would be even more laughable if it turned out that she did not have the resources she claimed. Did you ever hear from her again about this? What did she do when you did not respond?

Bea,
You can be assured she had no financial resources whatsoever. In fact, in the 4 years since this letter was written, she lived with her parents or PEW, once had her own apartment for about 3 months and got evicted. Not only did PEW get into all the financial troubles, but PP was LIVING WITH HER at the time, so obviously, she has zero finances to help.
There’s more to come from PP, it’s absolutely hilarious that her entire world is a complete fantasy. Here’s a woman who is 42 years old, never been married, never owned a house, has almost 20 financial judgments against her, filed bankruptcy TWICE, and lives with her sad, pathetic sister. But in email, she’s rich beyond belief!

But really this is my favorite part: “She obviously knows at this point that you have manipulated her and that my father and I need to take over for the boys’ best interests.” So you are saying that their own Mother can’t even handle taking care of them? That it’s in their best interest to have someone else take over? Hmmmmm, isn’t that what we were saying? Of course, we didn’t agree that it should be 2 alcoholics who couldn’t even take care of themselves, but at least we agreed on the main point!

I was suddenly overcome by laughter this morning having thought about sending it back to her with a big “LOL” at the bottom of it!

Quick note- just found your site. Unbelievable, I must be the only guy going through a semi-civilized divorce. This SIL of yours obviously has way to much free time. I actually would refer these emails to your attorney, my first concern would be this—if your ex isn’t capable of representing herself,I would question her ability to take care of your boys. The tone of this email(haven’t read any others yet)leaves no doubt that the SIL’s motive is revenge, pure and simple, not the kids. I love the fact that she threatens you, at the same time she’s telling you to stop the harrasment. She’s not very bright, but she truly believes she’s making great points (a case of psuedo-intelligence if I’ve ever seen one)and she’s got the same basic problem all people like her have—she thinks,and really believes, that she’s more important and special than she really is. We all go through this, but luckily by our early 20’s, we’ve seen enough of the world, to know the truth, and we grow out of it.

Of course viruses and bacteria thrive in warmer environments-your kids will be healthier the cooler it is in your home. Four degrees is not enough to make a child sick on way or the other. Is that really her pic? Scary!
February 15th, 2009 at 1:18 pm
LOL! No, that’s not actually a picture of her.
