Legal Question in Family Law in Virginia
harassment/stalking
My spouse has told me that he recently went to the home of the person I was involved with when we were seperated and attempted to break the windows of their vehicle as well as doing some vandalism on their home.
Is this illegal? Should I inform the other party? (They were not home at the time) I am uncertain as to whether I want to reconcile with my spouse - their anger is scary and they have substance abuse issues.

Re: harassment/stalking
Not only is this kind of activity illegal, it's also a prosecutable crime known as the destruction of property for which one can be sent to jail.
Anger that you find scary and substance abuse issues; what else do you need to know?
