I can't believe it's got worse

So,some of you may remember, when my son was sent to jail I had to leave my home because of all the violence and threats off my estate where I lived and I was homeless for a long time ,sleeping onto of friends pubs ,my car and my mothers .I had a breakdown and life was hard .During my sons time in prison my mother died and left me her house ,which is on a very peaceful road and I rebuilt my life.
After about a year I resumed a relationship with my son and he is due to be released next week .
One of the neighbours asked when he was due for release ,and where he was going to live .I said with me ,bearing in mind he was only 19 when he went to prison and is now only 21.
They decided not to talk to me again ,and that's fine ,I get it .
They then started to shout abuse at me in the street infront of people and I informed the police .THEN last week EVERY HOUSE IN MY STREET recieved a letter ,photocopied with ALL THE DETAILS ,of my sons court case and conviction ,with another page saying sexoffender moving in soon with MY FULL ADDRESS ON !!!! I couldn't prove it was them as they used stamps and sent them in the post !.
If that wasn't bad enough it was then put on fb WITH MY full address and my sons photo.
Why can't I be left alone !!!!
Obviously I've had to cover my whole house with cctv ,and firebrigade have come out to proof my house as best they can against arson .
The police don't want my son to come back now ,but as its short notice of yet haven't found anywhere ,so hopefully won't and he can come home .
For the last 2 and a half years he's been a 3 and a half hour journey from me ,and just when I thought we could finally move on this happens .
Horrible ,horrible people .
I'm just lost for words !

Oh how my heart breaks for you and your son, I can only begin to imagine how traumatic and devastating this is for you.
Have the other neighbours reacted at all to the information they've been given? My hope is that they already know what the vindictive neighbour is like and are willing to let you and your son live in peace.
My address was published when my son was sentenced so the neighbourhood were soon aware. I'm sure there was plenty of gossip and judgement at the time but I've come to realise that most people are struggling with their own issues rather than worrying about other people's.
As awful as your neighbours behaviour is, it does make me wonder why they are behaving in such an extreme way and whether something has happened in their life to make them behave in such a hateful way. I know that doesn't excuse their behaviour at all but might explain why they feel the need to cause so much hurt, pain and suffering to other people.
I know my words won't have done anything to alleviate your pain but I couldn't read and not reply. I truly pray that you and your son are left alone and able to live your lives in peace, as you both go through the process of rebuilding your lives.

Hi ocean ,thank you for your reply .xx Apart from one other family on the street a few doors down ,anyone else I've seen or spoken to in passing have just asked me if I'm OK x The neighbours causing the trouble have grandchildren who visit and this is there argument. They are busy bodies who love to gossip.and I don't believe have had anything happen to them .But as we all know when it comes to sex offenders ,nobody wants to have one living on their street and the rationality of them being highly monitored, Doesn't register !
