Friends,
I received this email from David, the guy who was stalking me online about a year ago. I changed my screen name and deleted my journals and started them all over again. I refuse to do that this time, but I have made my journals private. If you want to be added as a reader to any of my four journals, please send me an email. I am not going through this again. I have law enforcement on the way to my house right now. I am turning him in this time!!!! I probably should have done it before. Sorry for the inconvenience. He has threatened to bother all of you, but just block him if he tries. God bless you!~
My journal links:
Susan
I have attached a copy of what he sent tonite. Everything he said is in red:
You want to talk smack Susan, you say it to ME.
Most of you know about the online threats I was
receiving. It was because of those threats, I have
been forced to change my screen name, email, and
delete my journals, all of which I had poured a great
deal of work into. David, the person who made the
threats does not have AOL, only AIM, so I am hoping he
won't find this journal. If he does, I will just make
it private and only put the names of the people I want
to have access, and I will block him, as I refuse to
go through that AGAIN!!!!
I have received several emails wanting to know about
the situation with David, so I am going to address it
here so I won't have to keep sending out additional
emails, I hope you don't mind.
David fancies himself a writer. According to what he
told me, he has been writing since he was eight. He
is now 25 years old. I do know he suffers from
bipolar disorder, which is one of the reasons I have
not turned him in. My brother was bipolar and went on
to committ suicide at the tender age of 23. I tend to
have way more patience with someone like this than
probably most people would because I lived with it day
in and day out with my brother. Only someone who is
manic depressive like my brother or loved ones who
have lived with someone who is manic depressive could
really understand. I do not believe David needs jail,
I believe he needs help. It is for that reason, I did
not report him, plain and simple.
Anyway, my daughter publishes her stories online and
David reviewed a couple of them, I think. I did
monitor their conversations and they only talked about
writing. One day, he IM'd her and she had went into
the kitchen to get something to drink. I IM'd him
back and told him that she would be right back. In
the meantime, he started talking to me. Anytime after
that, when he would see me online, he would IM me.
Over the course of time, I found him to be VERY
opinionated, even to the point of trying to control
me. I became angry and blocked him, which really sent
him off the deep end. It was at this point and time,
he started posting threats in my journal and
threatening to start bothering my online friends if I
did not get back on AIM and talk to him. His threats
did not hold water with me, as all we had to do was
block him. Things would settle down one day and he
would be back with threats the next.

"Sorry Susan. Rule #1: NO ONE ignores me. Rule #2 NO
ONE IGNORES ME.
You want to play the "I need time away from you" card,
thats fine. But I'll tell you this, if you play that
card, your online journals ALL FOUR OF THEM will
become my playground. I don't think your friends
would like hearing what I would have to say either.
So is pretty simple. We settle this in AIM, or we
settle this where your friends can read it. And
believe me, if they start flaming me, THEY WILL BE
NEXT.
Signed:
David Hammond"

Hey I told ya, if we can't settle this in AIM or on
your journals, your friends WILL BE NEXT. And I
intend to carry that out. Your friends screen names
HAVE been recorded, and their journals WILL be
affected (if they have one). So if you don't want ALL
OF YOUR FRIENDS AFFECTED, we will settle this, or your
friends will pay the price. On that I can assure you.
For all your friends that want to get in line to take
a crack of me, i'll tell you where you can find me.

FYI, so many nicks Susan, so little time to use them.
The list goes on longer then just those.

I am sorry, but I just cannot go through this AGAIN
when I don't have to. I have already lived through it
with my brother. Manics are way down one minute and
way up the next. There seems to be no in between with
them. Even with my brother, he never tried to control
me like David did.
I have many online friends who also suffer from
bipolar disorder. I hope you do not take any offense
to what I have just said in this entry. NONE of you
have tried to control me like David. My brother lived
a very tortured life. I would not wish that on
ANYONE. I have always tried to be there for my
friends who suffer from depression or for anything
they might need regardless of what it is. It is hard
to know what to say. You feel so helpless. It is
hard to watch someone you care about suffer so much
and not feel you can do anything at all about it. I
just try to listen when they are going through these
dark periods, or valley of shadows, as I had referred
to them in my journal about my brother.
Here in J-Land, we are all one big happy family. We
care about each otherand what the other is going
through. I have read so many journals here in J-Land
that have some kind of tragedy and I can tell you my
tears flow when I read them. My heart aches for all
of you facing difficulty in your lives. Somehow, we
all pick up the pieces and go on, but it is never easy
especially in cases of great loss, whether through
motor vehicle accidents, terminal illness, or in my
case, suicide. Let us not forget the families who
have lost loved ones in Iraq either. It is so nice to
have friends out there who have been through similar
things and be able to talk about them with each other.
I think it makes us a close-knit family. I believe
our suffering gives us credibility to minister to
others.
I have formed many beautiful friendships with folks
from all walks of life here in J-Land. I have laughed
with them, cried with them, even prayed for them. It
is because of all of you and the support I have
received through everything, that I decided just to
start another journal.
It is my belief that friends make our lives much
richer. I deeply appreciate the support from you all
through all of this and I thank you for your gift of
friendship. You are each cherished. I pray you have
a blessed week!!!!
I know this was said over a year ago on and I have
been watching ever since. I know you never left AL, I
know you have went back to church, I know your son is
moving, I know about your daughter's boyfriend, I know
you're scared your daughter is sick. I know it all.

Sorry once again that you are having troubles again with this guy.
Louise
My GOD...thank you for adding me!! i am worried about you now with this stalker whacko...i hope the police take care of him once and for all. I would be petrified.
HUGS, lisa
Glad to be a friend and on your private list, GOD BLESS YA.........diane
So glad you have added me Susan, thank you. Being bi-polar is one thing, making threats to you and your friends is quite another. This man needs taking in hand, he needs reporting and I hope you have done so. I can see why you felt the need not to do it before, the loss of your brother must have been so hard. But, this is serious and needs to be treated that way. Sometimes you have to be cruel to be kind.
Sorry to hear of your troubles with this guy.
TY for adding me to your private journal. :)
Blessings, Sugar
Thanks for adding me friend. Nail the sucker to the wall! Tammy
Thanks for adding me.
Susan you need to report him. This guy is more that bipolar if he is really that. It could be a lie. After all he does(or did) read so he would know about how you feel about that. Control nuts use all the info they have and use it to control you.Please watch yourself.
Gee, I have not read your journals in a while, I feel kind of bad about it, because I had no idea this was going on! Poor kid! The guy sounds like a weird-o Sue, I
say ignore him completly! I guess you HAD to block him-but-it would have been better to JUST IGNORE! That would have bothered him more than a block! But what's done is done, now move on. ~Diane~http://journals.aol.com/dizarra/StorysFromtheCityTalesFromtheSea
so glad you added me..he does not scare me!!! what an diot!
