This happened in the Netherlands, but it’s so ridiculous, we needed to tell you about it.
This one 33-year-old man was sentenced to four months in jail for stalking…after showing up at his ex’s home. Now he didn’t just walk up to the front door like normal people do. He went above and beyond.
He shipped himself…inside a box…to her address. It’s unclear if she somehow brought it inside or not…but he emerged from the box, threatened her with a gun, and then took off with the keys to the place. I’m actually impressed with his willingness to get his point across…face to face.
The man told the judge having himself delivered in a box was, quote, “the only way to get in and get my stuff back.”
The woman put a camera in her home after the box incident…and caught him showing up at her place three times. The man claims he had permission for the visits, but the judge didn’t buy it. In addition to the jail time, the judge granted the woman a three-year restraining order.
It’s shit like this that makes me to not want to check the door…or mail for any reason.
