I don't know what your financial situation is, but is there anyway you can install REALLY bright motion detector lights - like so bright they would light up a stadium?
Personally, I'm with the bulk of the other posters on this thread. I can't believe this is happening to you. Totally unreal. Secondly, I would be out there with a baseball bat so fast, their freaking heads would spin. Sometimes you gotta meet crazy with crazy.
And, I would absolutely PLAGUE the Police Department. I would DEMAND action and arrests for trespassing. I would start with the Desk Sargent and then I would work my way up the chain of command and let them know that I was not stopping until something was done. If there was a Town or Village Hall, I would also make my way over to their offices and get them involved.
I also love the idea of the sprinkler system - perhaps motion detected too. Again, this depends on your finances.
Did they "buy" the house next to you, or are they renting from the owners? If they are renters, I would be threatening the owner of the house with a lawsuit that would soon have him evicting these people.
Good for you not allowing yourself to be bullied. Just let the cops know that you are trying to keep this issue within the confines of the law - however - if they leave you no choice but to protect your home and your assets then you will move to that level. And I'd let them know that I had documented EVERY single call I had placed to them and would be presenting it to my lawyer and the local media upon my arrest.
Best of luck to you - you really both deserve and need it.
To answer some of your questions, they bought the house. Sprinkler system doesn't go that way where they are, but I suppose I could change that this Thursday. Hey, excellent idea!!!!!! I just called the guy who does my yard and he will be here at 6 tonight to set the sprinklers up to go 360 degrees so they will all get wet and I just hope it doesn't make things worse.
As far as installing really bright lights, well, yes but I need someone to do it and that involves hiring an electrician. I don't want to tell you how much this whole thing has cost me so far. A lot. Hey, I'll see if I can post an image so you get an idea of what I'm dealing with. It'll be later though as I have to run. Thanks for your super idea!
