...this is a multi-layered hot mess....but my first and most important thought is that you guys are OK...second, venture out and find the strongest pepper spray you can buy, a stun gun, handgun-whatever is legal there...hell, even a baseball bat or a Bowie knife...this dude is bad news....I pray for you both...please be safe my sweet...
I think if you go to places like Cabelos or other outdoor/hunting places you can get a can of "bear spray" (pepper spray) to use for protection in cases of emergency like when camping or in the woods. Canada is so strict when it comes to weapons, so I am not even sure if that is available any more!

Je-sus.
She needs to throw this a-hole over completely. Friends don't get near to pulling that kind of sh!t.
Also, keep an eye on her for a while (beyond the necessary 'watching to keep her safe' stuff). I know from experience that these things can have a seriously bad effect, sometimes weeks, months or even years down the line, even if the initial incident seems to be shrugged off or dismissed (in fact, a complete dismissal of the seriousness of the incident should be an indication that something's wrong; acting as though nothing happened is not a normal, natural reaction).
Best wishes to you both.

When she came from work and coming in the door, he shouldered his way in...his father brought him here and came running when this guy went beserke again. He pushed Becky and me ...told me to stay out of the danger...which I did not happened. His father dragged him out. Said his son tried burning down his house and stole 44,000 dollars from him. As soon as Becky gets off work, she is swearing out an order .
I am totally exhaused about this. I will let you know how things all. I have pepperspray and my scimitar. A huge curved one.

Oh man! Why would his father bring him to your house? Especially when he knows he's nuts. Stay safe and aware!

Sounds like he needs some in-patient care as he is a danger to himself and /or others. Please go with her to do the paperwork. You can report what you saw, it will help you both if he comes back later on. Also, I agree with the others, the paper isn't going to 'save' you if he is there and pumped up on pcp or whatever is making him violent / nuts. A nice wooden bat, golf club, fire poker, even walking stick can be really helpful. Take Care and Keep in touch with us...We are sending warm, calming waves to you.

I hope his dad didn't know how troubled his son was. If he had any inkling and still drove him round...they both need their heads bouncing off the kerb.
(If I'm completely honest, if I had a daughter and someone held a knife to her throat - or otherwise threatened her life/abused her - their life expectancy would shrink to minutes or seconds, depending on how far away they were. I'd take whatever came next. But barging in = home invasion. Add the belief that your life, or that of another resident, was in danger and...there you go. "He tripped and fell, officer. I was trying to catch him but his neck twisted...")

I think this father does know his son is troubled. He stole 44,000 dollars and tried to burn down his home. But in some cases, families minimize how messed up someone truely IS. Perhaps his dad thinks "It's our business, we can handle it". "He just got out of rehab, so he's all better right?"
Happened this way in my family and being the lone voice of reason is generally not appreciated.

Oh thanks so much for caring. I think his father was wrong to bring him. I do not know what to make of him either. I know he did try to get him certifed but that is a joke in Canada for sure. It took eight cops to restrain him after going after them with a knife.....and they let him go at the hospital. The ****ier bragged about that when he barged in here. Thumbing his nose and laughing because we are helpless. What a system! We have to stop taking in strays for sure.
