In December of last year, TikToker Taylor (@taybsole) and her family moved into a new house. They loved everything about it, except for their neighbors.
They met their neighbors a few times before. The husband was definitely way friendlier than the wife, but she still seemed nice at first.
They didn’t have any issues until Taylor’s one-year-old son wandered onto the neighbor’s driveway. Taylor called out for him to come back, but he wasn’t listening.
She started chasing after him, and he ran away from her, thinking it was a fun game. When she finally grabbed her son, she noticed that the neighbor’s wife was outside.
She waved and apologized, but quickly realized that the wife was extremely angry. She started threatening to hit Taylor’s kid with her car or unleash her dogs on him the next time he was on her property. She also called Taylor a bunch of names.
Taylor went back to her own house and called her husband to tell him what had happened. He told her to call the non-emergency line to make a police report. The sheriff came out to the house, but the wife had already left the house.
The next day, Taylor returned home from the grocery store at around 10:30. That was when she noticed the wife putting up no trespassing signs along the property line.
As she unloaded her groceries from the car, the wife started making threats again. This time, she pulled out a gun and waved it around.
Taylor went inside to call her husband. Then, she called 911. The same sheriff came out and tried to call the wife, but she refused to talk to him.

The sheriff waited for her to come home. She was being very argumentative with him. He told her that she could potentially be charged with aggravated menacing for waving her gun around.
“She tells him that if they try to charge her, they’re going to need to bring the whole sheriff’s office down and put a bullet through her head because she’s always wanted to go out that way,” said Taylor.
“So, she is clearly mentally unstable.”
Taylor was instructed to go down to the courthouse and get a civil protection order (CPO) against her. The CPO was granted, and the sheriff soon served her with it. He also took away her gun. The police don’t think this will be the last time they’ll have trouble with her.
“We do go to court in a couple of weeks because the CPO that we got granted is only good for six months, and we are trying to get a final CPO for a total of five years so she can never talk to us again,” Taylor concluded.
