How do I make sure that he doesn’t get away with it? During our divorce 15 years ago, my abusive ex-husband stated that he would kill me after our daughter turned 18. I assumed he’d calmed down since then, as he remarried a great woman (to whom he is also abusive) and secured a good job.
Last week, he told my daughter that he still planned to kill me. What I am currently doing: installing security cameras around my house, installing front and back car cameras, parking in front of my company’s security cameras (and never walking to my car alone), and telling as many people as possible that my ex-husband is going to kill me. I’ve also bought a gun. What else can I do?
Telling the police would be useless (as they cannot do anything and that will just make him more angry). He has friends and family who will buy him a gun if he does not already have one. I cannot flee or hide, as he would just go after my family. I’ve tried talking to him, but he is not mentally stable. I see no way out of this, but want to make sure that he goes to jail if he kills me. What can I do to assure this?
