Hits home here. My wife gives music lessons and the parent of a student confided with her about concerns of safety (paranoia) from her husband. It was apparent that she was delusional. The police were notified and interviewed my wife and my wife told them it wasn't her safety, but her to watch out for because she was sick, ill, deranged, etc. Well, the mother stabbed and beat the husband. The child was spared. Police said they couldn't do anything. She's been incarcerated for half a year now. No medical help. Shes been in hospitals before. Granted the husband dealt with her illness privately, but the shame (E European) got him killed. Sad...

Very sad. There’s really not much the police can do - until after the fact. But at least she didn’t go after your wife. Paranoids sit around and imagine hidden messages in casual conversations and then they obsess on something, and you never know who or what they’re going to obsess on next.
