If YOU or I claimed intimidation, what would our Sheriff and Prosecutor do to help us as citizens?
Restraining order perhaps? Suggestion we arm ourselves maybe?
They might tell you to take it to civil court if it is slander/libel/harassment.

Would they take this person to court and jail them that they might pacify you regarding a perceived, but unfounded danger that might occur in the future?
Would they jail the person for public insults and sharing public opinions of you?
Would they want to protect you from a justifiably angry person who called you a pervert?

I would be interested to hear examples from the Sheriff and Pros. about what efforts they have extended to help other citizens in this manner who have asked for help with similar complaints of intimidation, or even worse complaints.
