Just a quick update with a hilarious e-mail. My bid for an order of protection was dismissed. The ex-employer hired an attorney and fought it on the grounds that I couldn't prove the legal definition of stalking. In MO, stalking is defined as harassment which causes alarm...which alarm is defined as fear of physical harm. That's where I lost was the fact that he has never threatened me physically. I could have lied about him threatening me in person, but I won't do that.Since he "won" the hearing, I received three blocked calls with no one there and my employer has received 3 e-mails that just happen to coincide with the prank calls. The last e-mail is flat out hilarious. I've transcribed it below:
From: [Tim]Sent: Monday, February 28, 2011 1:59PMTo: [Jayrod's new boss]Subject: FW: credit card receiptJust wanted to keep you abreast of the situation. The state of Missouri and our fine Governor along with the Attorney General's office are aware of the situation now. At anytime should you desire to see evidence for yourself to consider your [Jayrod] questions seriously, you are welcome to stop by and view this for yourself.[Tim]-------------------------------------------------------------------------------From: [Tim]Sent: Monday, February 28, 2011 1:49PMTo: [MO DOR rep lady], [Tim's Private Investigator], [Tim's attorney]Subject: RE: credit card receipt[DOR lady], thank you for the help. I certainly do not recall initiating this transaction. I don't know if this is standard procedure for the Drivers License Unit to conduct a transaction like this. Or if it was my driver's license record or someone else. I'm assuming at least the $1.25 is the cost of the shipping and the $1.00 is the card processing fee? Is there any way to determine where the transaction was actually processed with more detail on the transaction itself?We have several of these types of charges using the company American Experess. Generally these are not on my card. This one stood out because it was $2.25 and was processed on my card. The fraudulent charges are generally processed using the cards held by the former employees who are suspects in a criminal investigation here locally. At least one of these former employees worked for Encore Payment Systems, a credit card processing company that provides POS terminals to process checks and credit cards. In the case of the local area contract operated DOR offices, we suspect he was servicing the credit card processing equipment in the [local] locations.We are in the process of determining through subpoena the exact merchant account holders because in many transactions they appear to pose as legitimate merchants only to divert funds to their own accounts. I know it all sounds high-tech like some kind of movie but this is precisely the scenario we have been investigating.[Tim]-------------------------------------------------------------------------------From: [MO DOR Rep lady]Sent: Monday, February 28, 2011 1:36PMTo: [Tim]Subject: credit card receiptAccording to the Drivers License Unit, $1.25 was the cost of a driving record being mailed to you. The credit card fee was $1.00 for a total of $2.25.Let me know if you need anything else.Thanks,[DOR lady]
That's right, folks, this is evidence he is pursing of a fraud of a grand total of $2.25. He felt my boss needed to know this, even though I never even had a company AMEX card. Somehow I was supposed to research the exact bank accounts each AMEX transaction went to verify that it was indeed the proper company when I reconciled. Never mind the fact that I couldn't even get him to qualify his own personal card activity.My current boss had a pretty good laugh over this whole exchange. He has also started just ignoring all of "Tim's" e-mails.

ETA: Also, LOL at "our fine Governor" is "aware".
