New Year's Eve 2011, gun fire

12/31/ 2011 events

It was around 5:45 PM Dec. 31, 2011 and Scott had just stepped out the kitchen door to take down the vegetable matter to our compost pile and rapid gun fire came from near the property line (about 60 feet away)... from the Repash property—above the shared road. It was dark and the gun fire was close. Like they were waiting/stalking since we have the same cook out ritual and time table every week all year round on a Saturday night. The first round of gun fire came from near the spot that Jesse and Brett or his son

occupied earlier in the day. Then I came out and more gun fire happened near our pond-the person shooting was walking around. Total of about 20 shots from a high caliber over a period of 10 minutes—very brazen. We both got some iphone recordings of the gun fire with the flood lights next door etc.. Earlier in the day, Jesse was standing near the property line near the new feeder stand that is placed so he can get a view of our front porch and pretend he is feeding the birds.  We believe it is a convenient spot to stalk us and
pretend he is performing a chore, but a very inconvenient spot to refill and maintain on a regular basis. We believe he is totally obsessed with us and at his breaking point. 
Jesse is not getting the reaction he is looking for
from us. It was the same spot where we recently saw 
a Red Votive candle burning outdoors throughout the
evening and into the night. The candle was on a stump, 
under an evergreen tree near a bed of pine needles—
not the safest place to burn a candle out doors. 
Maybe there were other intentions?  We saw Jesse 
 t was dark. Then as we were talking, 4 rapid  same 
caliber 
gun shots came from Brett Schneider's property near the 
fire they were burning. We said to the Cop "did you 
hear that?" Ptlm. Haggerty said, "Now that I heard." At first the
 cop wastrying to make us feel like we were making it up...
that we would fabricate evidence, that we may have mistaken gun 
fire at a distance and it was not coming from 
neighboring properties. I told him "I would take a polygraph test 
if he wanted me to prove I wasn't lying" and he showed 
apprehension by my request—like I was making a threat. 
We believe Haggerty was giving us the impression he was protecting our neighbors and knew what was going on, 
playing games again. He then went up to Brett Schnieder's after hearing the gun fire and then came back. His first response was "Boy, you sure have some neighbors." He said 
that Brett didn't hear any gunfire and was preparing for a party and it could have been another neighbor. Haggerty 
said he got "in his face" (referring to his speaking to 
Brett). There was a fire burning in Brett's backyard which was 
in the vicinity of the gun fire that the patrolman witnessed in 
our presence. The fire began burning right before 
sunset. We actually thought that some resolve would 
occur but againfelt totally dismissed. We were told by the township that fires at night are not permissible. We suspect it is some sort of Witchcraft ritual(another story). We believe the 
Patrolmanknew who was doing the gunfire and had given it a wink 
and a nod and protecting them. The gunfire does violate the 
township ordinance of shooting a firearm within 150 
YARDS ofan occupied property. Both incidences of gunfire were 
about30 to 60 feet away at best. And you can't discharge a 
gun at night. Another note was that our videos don't show the 
back porch light lit. The light is on day and night- 
something we can't help but observe. It was probably turned off to provide cover.




An addendum to what Jerry wrote about the gun fire from 
Repash + Schneider New Year's Eve, 12/31/11...

When Ptlm. Haggerty arrived, I met his vehicle at the 
property line where we keep a sawhorse barrier across 
the drive. After he got out and we were speaking, I saw 
Jesse briefly stick his head out his front door, then come 
over to the window at his "study". It appeared he was on the 
phone.
 As Ptlm. Haggerty drove up the drive to go to Schneider's to investigate the gunfire after Brett fired the 4 or 5 shots, I walked up our common drive to the property line to 
make certain he got out OK. I could see Jesse Repash again at his 
"study" window, appearing to be on the phone. It is my beliefthat he was probably calling Brett, telling him that the 
Officer was on his way up to see him.


Ptlm. Haggerty said since Brett or Jesse wasn't viewed 
or caught with a smoking gun, there was nothing he could 
do. That seems absurd. So we asked him "What do we do in 
the future when this happens, as it will continue to happen and 
escalate. What do we do if one of us is shot?" The only answer was "continue to call 911". The Police report of the 
investigation of the bullet hole we discovered in our outdoor security shade on Nov.13 ,in our opinion, is an insult. And, we could actually hear someone walking around near our 
property line near our pond in between the rapid fire being discharged by their high caliber firearm-they were that close.We were really spooked because at any moment a bullet
could have come our way. There were branches snapping as they walked. We now have a hunch and  suspect that it was 
Brett or his adult son doing the shooting. He has been seen regularly hanging out next door with Jesse. There was a time recently when he was standing near the shared property line with 
Jesse staring over here. It was the day that Jesse's ATV got stuck in the mud right outside our window.
