What do you do after finding out who he is? If MPD isn’t following up now, I doubt that changes if you can tell them his name.

I think people are concerned that pursuing this line of action is far more likely to result in you getting hurt, and not whatever justice you think you’ll get.

I didn’t call you an asshole. However, I also don’t like the idea of either you personally confronting this man, or your inciting others to do so. You have already said that there is likely to be an altercation because everyone in your building is on edge. Sounds like you want to take the altercation to him rather than waiting on him to come back to your building.

Keep calling the cops. Escalate. File a complaint for lack of action. Contact your ANC. Contact your councilperson. Contact local news media.

What I would not do is DIY it, put this person’s identity out there [let’s hope you get it right and aren’t putting an innocent person on blast], and wait to see what the consequences are.

You’re missing my point. I’m not saying to go to the media with the guy’s picture. I’m saying go to the media (and the other entities) about MPD’s lack of responsiveness.

Then put up a camera in your doorway/hallway! Then you’ll have footage of him committing a crime, instead of footage of a guy on the bus that you say is the guy who broke into your building. Jeez Louise you are tedious.

I’m beginning to see why the cops don’t want to deal with him
