This happens a lot near me. Homes often have illegal finished basements, fences not to code, pools not to code, no egress windows, illegal exemptions, you see this stuff during your walk-through and comparing to what is on assessor site.
Someone screws you over to buy a house you are working on folks get pissed for a few days. And with internet easy to report them.
Why do folks do it, revenge, jealousy, and who knows the person who beat you out overpaid maybe and if you rock their boat a bit with town and taxes maybe they will be forced to sell.
I told one too many folks I got a massive cut in property taxes almost so much it must be a mistake and guess what someone from Assessor came to house took pictures from outside and jacked my taxes back up.
Um... what? I think this story goes a little beyond property taxes and code violations.
People go to prison all the time for hiring a hitman, even if nobody got hurt. Even if they didn't hire a real hitman but an undercover police officer, they go to prison for a long time. I don't think this is any different. The intent was to seriously harm another person and she should be in jail. If they think she's that crazy, then put her in a psych ward. Just get her out of the general population.
Absolutely correct! Just because no one gets hurt in these situations, these people justifably get locked up because their INTENT was to cause harm to someone. This is exactly what happened with this scum-bag.
I also see people giving his old woman a pass just because she is - or at least appears - elderly. Well, let me tell you that some of the most entitled P.O.S.'s on the planet are elderly, because they correctly think they can get away with more due to their advanced ages, which is a crock. They should be treated just the same as anyone else.

I think we are pretty fortunate to live in a country where we cant be sentenced to jail based on what coulda happened because of her actions. Desperate people do desperate things, likewise, insane people do insanely desperate things.
That's like saying, "Thankfully, Mr. Smith didn't get convicted of attempting to hire a hitman to kill his wife. Because "we...live in a country where we can't be sentenced to jail based on what could['ve] happened because of [his] actions." Of course, Mr. Smith was meeting with an informant and NOTHING happened, so that makes it okay. No, Mr. Smith ends up in prison. There are a lot of people that go to prison based on "attempts" and what "could've happened."
My husband and I have been in that situation before, except the stalker was a guy who was angry that I wasn't with him, and wanted to make us "pay" for that. It was one of the scariest experiences in my life, and it lasted over a year until many drastic measures were taken. And we we ended up moving so that he wouldn't be anywhere near a mile from us. Hopefully they've gotten a protective order against that crazy lady.
