A: That’s tough! But if your ex had someone else with him it MIGHT be possible to get him to talk or overhear him talking or ask people who are mutual friends if they wouldn’t mind keeping an ear to the conversations. If you did get someone to talk, you could offer them immunity if they will tell the truth re: ex’s bad conduct. Be sure and turn it into the police and your insurance.
