Let me get the opinion on a current situtation. A family bought a house in a nice neighborhood from another family which had moved out of state. After moving in they discovered their only neighbor had issues. The husband had early onset dementia and was being treated. The wife suffered from paranoia and some delusions surrounding that. The husband had been hospitalized during the buying process because he had wandered into another neighborhood and started removing his clothing in the street to cool off. The woman watched the neighborhood and often pulled her car into the driveway and opened all of the doors to let the poison out that was being put into the car to kill her. The new neighbors had several incidents where they were sure someone had been in the house when they were gone, which they quickly corrected by changing the locks. Their neighbor was suspected but with nothing missing there was no evidence to do anything. The neighbor has accused the family on the other side of her of killing her dog, which would be hard to do as she never had a dog at this house. She has also accused several of the neighbors of beign terrorist supporters. She has piled rocks against the crawl space access of her neighbors to prevent the terrorists spying on her from getting out. There have been some concerns that she might try to do away with those terrorists at some point by locking them in and setting fire to a neighbor's house. It is uncertain whether she would do something of that nature, but clearly it is a concern for the neighbors. The point at which they contact the authorities is the big question in everyone's mind. Too often and it is akin to crying "wolf" but not often enough and someone may be injured or killed. The authorities have set up for the Dept. of Social Services to chceck on them both on a regular basis, but the interim periods are still a question. What do they do about the concerns? What does the police department do when they are called? A lot of questions and very few answers because the people involved may not act logically at any given time and can do somehting to cause injury to themselves or others.
