I did not realize that if I send a letter to someone it becomes their property to do with as they please. A Letter to the Editor I knew could be made public.

I reread the letter you posted and am not to sure of the law - if someone knows of a threat to someone else and does nothing I believe they are considered liable.

Do any of you feel you can make a judgment call as to what this person will do in the future? If not, than I think you are duty bound to inform the individuals.

Another suggestion - is to get legal counsel to protect yourselves and/or ask the police what is your responsibility.

A person can be remorseful over something they did, but not knowing the mental state of the individual or their background I would not presume what they may do in the future.

This person states they are moving to TV which means they may be in close contact with the individual(s) named - I do not want to guess what the interaction may or may not be when they meet and/or see the person they were and/or are angry with.

Please inform the people in the pm you received.

Hello Hyacinth Bucket

I know that you indicated that you "reread the letter" which was posted and that you believe the person is "moving to TV". I don't see where the original letter indicates that the person isn't already IN The Villages. It states, in part, "...tell them all, I will see them at TV...". Perhaps someone knows if he/she is a resident even now.

I agree with HB - that you should consider consulting law enforcement as to whether or not the email is "a threat" to individuals. It should be documented for everyone's safety and the offender needs to know that behavior is inappropriate and unacceptable.

Tony, I love your quote. Is it original or did you read it somewhere?

If I recall the one correctly a member was posting and answering, posting and answering. It turned into a blog. Nobody else was posting in the thread.
