    The officer was very understanding and helpful . He said you would be surprised how many citizens they have come in and ask how to stop the Jehovahs from coming to their doors .

    I told him my whole story about leaving the JW's after 44 yrs and just wanting peace and freedom . I told him how upset their continued contact is making me after telling them to stop .

    His suggestion is for me to write a letter to the KH stating that I want no further calls or visits and that a letter is also filed with the Police department . State that I do not want to file criminal action ,but am prepared to if pushed that way .

    He said a personal letter is all that is needed for the States Attorney office . He did go on to say that you really don't want to get involved in a legal battle because it can get really messy ,and that hopefully the warning will be enough .

    This is a small town and he knows all about the witnesses here . He said there are some real nice members ,but he sees the controlling nature behind it all . He even laughed when I told him about my winter decorations and he said "OH man that is a big NO,NO with them " .

    I feel better and have finally quit shaking .

    I know someone has posted a legal letter of no further contact on here before ......if you know right were it is could you repost for me ...otherwise I am going to be busy looking for it ......

    Thank you everyone for putting up with my drama it sure helps to know someone on here will listen and care ........

    Sounds great...I'm sure they won't want the negative police contact.

    Make sure you send it "certified", or "signature confirmation", so that they cannot say they never received it. Certified is best, with "return receipt requested", you'll get a green card back with all the information and the name of the person who accepted and signed for the letter, You can even send it "Restricted", which means a specific person you address it to, MUST sign it. Then again, he could refuse, so a simple certfied with "RRR" is good enough .... yeah, I'm a letter carrier

    This is good. Notice the direction is to cease attempts to make contact. That's not the same as saying you no longer want to be known as a JW. So you can send this direction without actually giving the elders what they want. Of course, they'll announce you as no longer a JW either way.

    But the most important thing is being free of them.

    good for you troubled mind. Remember also to say that you don't want you name vilifed in the JW community or the community at large. The elders may think twice about making any announcements.

    You poor dear. I can tell that you are a very nice person and that having to take this step is troubling you. Just remember you had no choice. This false religious cult will not just leave people who leave alone. They are not satisfied until they follow WTS policy to try to make themselves look self-righteous & holy by aggressively labeling people who leave as bad. Good for you for standing up for yourself and letting them know they have no power over you and that you are calling the shots in leaving the cult.
