Has your former partner made threats of retribution following your separation? You may find yourself feeling anxious or fearful if your ex has hinted at revenge after your divorce. Consider the case of a man named Dwight who, after a bitter divorce, allegedly went on a violent spree almost eight years later. This unfortunate story serves as a warning about the potential dangers posed by individuals who may exhibit sociopathic or narcissistic traits.
In this instance, Dwight was accused of killing multiple people connected to his divorce, including professionals involved in his case. His history of aggression and lack of remorse, as described by mental health experts, signals the risk associated with individuals who might harbor grudges long after a relationship has ended.

We invite you to share your experiences with threats or harassment from former partners. Your insights could help others in similar situations.
