Hi @robertwills,
What an awful situation you are living in! I've had awful neighbors too but nothing like you have! I'm glad you think that there may be an end to it soon. But it still wouldn't hurt to put in an official complaint in writing and in person to the local police department. Also tell the Mayor, the council and your legislative representatives. It is important to let them know how threatened and frightened you are; and that it's affecting your health. It might also strengthen the police officer's case against these crazy people.
It wouldn't hurt to carry a big pointed (very pointed!) umbrella too. It makes a good weapon; even in the summer! Also some mace or if you can't get mace, insect spray. Strong insect spray.
The other thing to do that will probably work the best, is to pray and pray a lot! The Bible talks about " Taking on the armor of God and praying fervently in the evil day to withstand the fiery darts of the wicked." (Not a direct quote.) That's about what you are going through. Whenever, you start to feel anxious on the way home, just say or think, (God can read your thoughts to him. You don't have to necessarily speak out loud.) "God, please be with me." God will be with you and you'll be safe.
I wish you the best. Let us all know what happens with your awful neighbors.
I'll say a prayer for you.
