Hello I'm looking for some advice on a moral dilemma I'm currently having. This is not a troll btw! I#m a regular poster under another name but I'd rather keep this enquiry anonymous for reasons you will see.
I live in a set of flats and last year had problems with my immediate next door neighbour – his door is only about 4ft directly opposite mine – playing his music loudly at antisocial hours. HAving confronted him once and bearing the brunt of his aggrssion and intimidation I had to call the police a number of times. He had a history of assaulting the council noise team so the police always attended in their place.
So it came to head at the start of December last year when I had to call the police out twice in one night. The upshot was that on 2nd visit he was arrested. I got a visit from the police a few weeks back saying that when they were in his flat they found a massive stash of "indecent images" (i.e. child porn) on his computer. I am to be a witness in court in a few weeks.
The dilemma is that my upstairs neighbour sent a letter round all of us asking if we had any objections to him converting the roof space to allow his children to stay with him more often, as he did not want to leave the area to find a bigger place. He is unaware that a (admitedly alleged) paedophile is sharing a stairwell with him. If I was a parent and I found out about this guy I'd go mental and be looking to move. But right now he's not convicted and of course in this country you're innocent til proven guilty. I'm moving out soon (before court case) and I think objections had to be lodged by now. Maybe an anonymous note? At the end of the day I think its really none of my business and I shouldn't get involved any further – the guy is likely going to get convicted because of me getting the police round so in a way I've already done my bit. Thoughts?
Thanks.
