Criminal Threats Received

​On 7/27, an unsigned letter threatening one of our members was received. It has been turned over to the Sheriff's Department who classified the threats contained as criminal and are investigating. The woman's son acted as process server for an ACBC Small Claim, simply delivering court papers and attesting to that fact. 

The letter says of the son, "... he is the enforcer - the directors don't want their hands dirty and he has volunteered to be their goon. What a moron." 

It then continues, "News to mom of the goon, you'd better keep an eye on your kid. He's in our sights and we don't take this type of cruel enforcement lightly - payback will be hell. This is a neighborhood that looks after its own; we don't need you or your kid to be involved in our business. Sometimes accidents happen and I heard [your son] was accident prone!

Get out of our business.
Consider this the first and last warning."


If you have any idea who wrote this threatening letter, please contact a member of the Board or contact the Island County Sheriff's Office (case 15-i13008).  


This letter is the latest unsigned missive in the Cove. Please do not give credence to unsigned documents. If an author is not willing to own up to authorship, his or her content is not worthy of consideration. Over the past year there have been unsigned documents critiquing people running for board positions, two criticizing the bylaws revisions, and others demeaning, defaming and intimidating individual board members. Our community should not tolerate this type of activity. If you have something to say, say it - but sign it!
