Just need to know what to do to get it to stop
A: Call the police - they might be committing criminal harassment and criminal threatening. This could lay the foundation for obtaining a restraining order or peace bond but also start the process of getting them the mental health care services that they need. You want the police involved to document the harassment and threats, even if it doesn't lead to criminal charges; you want to ensure the safety of your family from physical harm or abduction; also, intervention from police help them get the assistance they need.
