A little help
Okay, here is the thing. My buddy needs our help. Someone has been messing with him for over a year. When I mean messing I mean one time all of us were over his house. There were like 10 of us at least in the house. It started by someone ringing his doorbell and then running away. Fine, kids stuff everyone does. They were very brave considering the amount of car/people at the house at the time. Well this kept happening. They must have rang the doorbell three more times. We we got to the door no one is there. So finally We hear a loud bag on the side of the house. We go out to investigate and there lying on the side walk is a dead opossum with a shard of glass stabbed through a piece of paper into it's body. On this piece of paper was scrawled the words "You're Next" Obviously this was upsetting to my buddy and his significant other. So the police were called and basically they said someone was just messing around. Well since then about once a month someone has been ringing his doorbell and running away. Also he found a Opossum's head in a plastic bag in his yard. I assure you that my buddy has done nothing to warrant this type of treatment and has sent a message to the opossum community that he does not condone this type of treatment toward marsupials. Please does anyone have any good ideas on how to handle this situation?

Surveillance. Security camera, video camera. Anything and everything. That's the only solution short of having someone sitting outside watching personally.
I think Russ has it, I would think that there should be some type of affordable, fairly good security cameras out there.
it just hit me...you said about once a month..so is it on a certain day of the month or just random. maybe its every month on the 2nd or its every month on the 1st wednesday?
This is indeed strange. I would have to agree w/ Russ re: surveillance. I wonder if these are racially/ethnically motivated. Is your buddy a minority? If so, this could be classified as a hate crime (the possums) and could be prosecuted as such if the perpetrator can be caught.
two words BB Guns.. J/J set up a web cam.. There are some cool ones out there that will start recording when they detect movement. Check out Tom's next time you are over.. It will follow movement..
