Re: verbal harassment

If the villain is over 18, then you should go to the police iimediately and emphasize the out-of-school behavior. Do not refer to any in-school behavior.

If the villain is under 18, you can still go to the police, but, if they determine that this is a school problem, you will be disappointed. Again, do not refer to any school activities.

Try the police first and, if that does not work out, get back to me and I will have more suggestions.
