Today BIL's girlfriend's sister emailed me, gave me her (the sister's) home number and asked me to call the girlfriend over there. Remember GF is preggo with baby #2. Chad (BIL) got mad at Brandi (GF) last night, threw the remote at her, just missed her head/face, and it hit the wall and shattered all over the place. He was calling her every name in the book--s!ut,
wh-re, b!@ch, etc. All of this in front of their four year old son. She finally grabbed Tyler and got in the car and left. As she was leaving, Chad said he was going to "put a bullet in his head." This worried Brandi, but she left for her safety and for the unborn baby's safety and Tyler's, too. She tried calling him, got no answer, had her mom try repeatedly, got no answer, so finally Brandi's mom called the cops. They went down to his house, calmed him down, and had him call Brandi. He had taken Brandi's house key from her when she left, so the cops made him agree to let her come this weekend and get her and Tyler's things. She told him she didn't care what he did to her stuff, just to not hurt Tyler's things. He went ballistic and hung up on her. From then on, she could not get him to answer the phone. So today, after hearing this from her, I tried calling him, got no answer, MIL tried calling, got no answer, so DH and I were going to go and check on him, but he finally called me back and left a message on my voice mail--I had the ringer on the phone off as I was trying to get Emily down for a nap. MIL checks Chad's bank acct online daily (another post altogether!!!) and she has noticed almost daily debit card transactions at a local liquor store. Chad is a "recovering" alcoholic. The bottom line is that Chad is vicious and crazy when he is drinking, so I don't blame Brandi for fleeing. MIL confronted Chad about drinking again, and he got irate and hung up on her. MIL told him that screwing things up with Brandi was a big mistake (I agree), and that he needed to quit drinking and work things out with her. At some point tonight I have to call Brandi and let her know that the
is just fine. He has pulled this suicide stunt on us countless times. One day he might really do it and no one will take him seriously and who knows how long it will be before anyone finds him. So frustrating!
