the blog of a disabled mother who likes to game, and "get in the pit"
This is one of my favorite Fortnite skins and was an unexpected drop into the Shop yesterday evening…
If I’m not mistaken, her name is Leelah. She reminds me of someone that used to be alive years ago.
The front header in Bub’s computer… shifted, so I had to open the computer all the way up to fix it for him…
Today is not that day, but tomorrow could have a better forecast and prognosis… who knows.
I know for a fact that the Portland FBI/IC3 (collectively known as “feds” from this point forward) requested information from Twitter about my stalker’s account, even though they had suspended it by that point. They were extremely interested in having a copy of all of his Tweets given to them, although I’m still not sure if that includes deleted Tweets or ones that Twitter themselves took action on for violating site rules. They have managed to keep me in the know enough about the investigation to continue to communicate with me that they are taking it more seriously than they did when I contacted the Austin branch of the FBI office — I can’t help but wonder if it was the second report from me to the FBI that made them begin taking it much more seriously, if other people had reported him to state and federal agencies as well (they probably did), or if he had managed to find yet another way to get on the feds’ radar other than to have the right to own and use firearms taken away from him as it had been by the time we got to him gloating about his brother’s gun.
All in all, I haven’t been bothered since he made it a point to gloat about finding my new Twitter account.
The stalker that I think I’ve mentioned having in here has resumed stalking me.
The private investigator that I’ve been working with referred me to the Portland FBI, who called me an hour and a half after I placed an inquiry on their website instructing me to fill out forms for IC3. The impression I got is that they are taking this far more seriously than they were when I had contacted my local FBI branch to make the initial report. They asked for the social media accounts of the… stalker in question, which I can’t say I was happy to give them as much as I can say that I’m relieved that they are taking this seriously. The person that I had on the phone with me confirmed that this meets the criteria for cyber-stalking and cyber-terrorism since it crosses state lines, which I had a hunch about. And if they take time early on in the afternoon on a Sunday to contact you you know they’re taking it seriously and that they mean business.
Although my hope is that this stalker fades back into obscurity, I’m just going to let the federal agents deal with everything. As it is, his FBI branch (which is in Portland, covering the entire state) was horrified when he went through this man’s Twitter account seeing his obsession with me. Imagine how I felt dealing with it…
In the interim, I’m going to do maintenance on this computer and writing the boys’ homeschool notes up.
