Not a problem. Just require the relative that is making the accusation precede the officers in the door by 5 minutes. Just to explain what is about to happen.

Just require the relative that is making the accusation . . .

Anyone who made such a report about me would be out of my life permanently. That is an unforgivable infringement on my freedom. Such an attack is more than enough to justify divorce, disowning a child, or ending a lifelong friendship.

My dad....years ago when talking about life in the 1930s of Alabama...got onto the topic of ‘writing a note to the county judge’.

If you had some relative who was nuts...you’d write the letter and have two relatives sign it. The judge would receive it...ask you to swear to the letter. Then he’d bring in the nutty cousin or uncle (deemed a threat), and ask a couple of questions. Sheriff’s deputies would bring the guy down, and this would take about twenty minutes. If deemed a nut then the deputies would drive the guy to the state mental facility and drop him off.

As he noted...it was awful easy, but also considered a necessity. We’ve gone in the past forty years to just let nutcases roam at-will and let them cause trouble...which just gets them into regular prison today. I would make a guess that 10-percent of the jailed-folks of today....are nutcase types and they should have been settled into a nutcase facility long ago.
