I am pretty upset, and I don't have all the information, but some 5150--Mentally disturbed person--tried to break into my sister's home ths morning. Took the police an hour to arrive. She had to call back after 30 minutes, as no one had responded! The first dispatcher advised her to tell him to go away.

Umm, he's only over 6 ft tall and 200+ lbs and very probably on drugs (although apparently he doesn't want to take his anti-psychotics)...she didn't want him to know she was even inside (he used to live in that complex, so he knows there's no man living there with her).

They caught him in the act (yeah, he was trying to get in at all the windows for an hour, while my sister waited inside with a basebal bat, praying none of her little boys would wake up). Took him away. Didn't even knock on the door or talk to my sister ("Gee, I wonder if that lady who called 911 twice is still alive?")

He's already been released. Apparantly if someone is categorized as 5150, they just take them from the scene and let them go...WTF? When she asked for a copy of the police report, she was told there wasn't any.

The guy at the desk acted like she was stupid for being upset "What do you want me to do about it?" He asked.

She's going to the police station to talk to the Watch Commander, but I fear they're not going to give a shit until maybe he manages to break in and rape or kill her. Apparantly he had told one of her neighbors that he wanted to f*ck her, but the neighbor didn't think to mention this to my sister, partially because he had recently been arrested for something else and folks thought he'd stay in jail for longer than an hour, and because the neighbor didn't want to scare my sister. Thanks, man. Good job there.

I just don't know what to do. When the police don't give a shit, who is going to help you?

My sister is two weeks away from moving out of that shithole, she's moved heaven and earth to afford a safe place for her family, and some mental nut case can just terrorize her and anyone else he fancies at his leisure. I guess we should wait until he actually gets in next time to ask for police assistance.
