Aurora, CO asked in Criminal Law for Colorado

Q: I am 55 and have ms. My ex daughter in law is sending me nasty messages. I was wondering if I could get her for

So this has been an ongoing thing for the last few months. I have tried to be nice and stay neutral between her and my son. But it has just gotten so out of control, she says awful things about me, which I can handle most of it, but I have ms and when I get upset my heart rate goes up above 160 and I go into symptoms of ms. It really sucks! I just want her to stop. I got texts from her about a week and a half ago, one right after the other, really nasty ones. How can i get this to stop? I have seen a really bad side of her that I didn't realize was there for 8 years! Plz help me?

A: You need to tell her you don't want contact from her any more (you can do this through text). You should also call and make a police report about the harassing texts. If she doesn't stop, apply for a civil protection order against her.
