Dealing With A Lying Neighbor

Our NFH told lies better than we told the truth and that was a real problem. He said we were racists, which we are not, but most of the police appeared to believe him, even though we offered them videotapes showing we did not call him or his family names. In fact, our NFH called us names. Most cops did not want to watch the tapes - I think because of the 'bad cops caught on tape' television programs.

I live in an area where lying is the culture. What is facinating is that they actually believe their own lies. They act like your friend and take and take and then when you say "no", they turn aroun and stab you in the back. And what is the oddest is that they stab you in the back with people they once ridiculed elsewhere.

NFH ARE SOCIO PATHS. THEY ARE SERIAL LIARS. THE MANAGEMENT AND POLICE ARE USELESS. IF ANYTHING THEY CAUSE MORE PROBLEMS. THEY FAVORED THE NFH BECAUSE OF RACISM(BOTH FAMIIES ARE CAUCASIAN, BUT WE HAD AN INCIDENT INVOLVING BLACKS. TOO LONG OF A STORY TO TELL) I CONTACTED INTERNAL AFFAIRS(I.A) AND MADE OUT A REPORT. I RECOMMEND I.A.IF THE POLICE DO NOT DO THEIR JOB I.A. WILL ASSIST.

not sure if you are still living with this psycho neighbor problem or not, but I FULLY appreciate the situation. Ever want to grab a cop/ADA/DA/building inspector/etc and just bang him off the curb a couple of times...you know, to knock some sense into 'em? I have (wanted to, not actually done...)

I too have a lying neighbor and when I put a stop to there games/bullying they also accused me of being racist. I realized that is there way of trying to continue bullying me and my family.

I have such a psycho neighbor for 7 years. Whilst overseas for 3 month in 2009 he poisened many new tenants (in a Complex of 42 units) saying I was a racist, against homosexuals ect. He is only 6'5, 130 kg,ex-bouncer from Kings Cross. Telling me to go back to f..Germany. He attempts to get me into his "pimping" enterprise had failed. Scambag re-inkarnate. I am still here. He hopefully soon gets sold up because he never pays his bills.

I am so sorry this happened to you.

We are not alone:

Falossi v. Koenig I Filed 11/05/2011.- Partial Reversal proving restraining order was unconstitutional

Falossi v. Koenig II Filed 12/29, 2010 - proving order was unconstitutional

Moore v. Koenig - Full Reversal providing order was unconstitutional.

Koenig v. Pask and Smith, settled in favor of Koenig, neighbors Falossi convinced to dig up our million year old landscaping with a backhoe and loader!

Koenig v. County of San Bernardino and Sheriff Deputy, Deputy helped Falossi during civil trial.

Koenig v. Callan, a friend of the Falossis who threaten to stab Koenig in the back.

Renegade Catholic Gang of Neighbors attempts to destroy gay couple who move into neighborhood.

Some many things you write about parallel our experience especially the bizarre response of the DA, Sheriff, etc., they lie better than we tell the truth, we have something they want-the parcel next door.

They did it all before to previous neighbors.

My white trash neighbors tell the police that I am the problem when they are out side at 3AM reving engines.

Unfortunately there are many people who tell lies better than the truth and gets EVERYONE to jump on board with them. You think, "the truth will clear me." I have learned from other people's experiences and my own that this is not so, not so at all; the truth doesn't matter at all. Then when you actually defend yourself and speak out with the truth it makes them even more angry and things get worse for you. You look guilty for not defending yourself and you look guilty for defending yourself. The truth doesn't seem to matter in this world anymore. I hope you are no longer dealing with this person and hope that you have been able to move on.

Unfortunately, I agree with you completely. Some people do tell lies better than you can tell the truth. It dogged us for four long years until finally a judge caught on, mainly because of our persistence and our videotapes. Best of luck to you!

Having neighbors who lie about various things can lead to conflicts. These insights that you have shared are truly effective for properly handling such so that disputes can be avoided. Thanks for sharing a very helpful article.

My neighbour who lies better than we tell the truth let's the air out of his tires and then goes door to door telling our other neighbours we are doing it. Everyone believes him and now he has an army of people on the block all harassing us and vandalizing our car in supposed retaliation.

We are too poor to move away ... we live in terror ... I even feel suicidal on occasion. He has been doing this for years.

No one seems to see what a liar and trouble maker this man is ... they all see him as a victim.

We live in hell.

Be firm(yet still polite) and you'll win. Don't give an inch to a liar and do not try to reason with them-it's their messed up choice to lie to you and cause trouble, not you.

Above all, keep your cool. I had a neighbor that would routinely try to antagonize me because he hated me. Why did he hate me? He once told me that he didn't like the way I walked-while I was in my own yard-as he spat that little nugget of information through the non-privacy fence he insisted on having "so we could be good neighbors."

Frankly, he's the kind of person that hates anyone different than him, and the funniest thing is that he thinks he's super tolerant and loving. lol

Anyway, God bless, and try to get along with each other.

Our NFH and his lawyer are pros at lying. They practice twisiting the truth and it seems we never get our say in court. They have the judge in their "pocket" and I believe he is just as bad as they are.

Truthfully, our NFH has a long running history of being a bully. I know in my heart that he is the problem and doesn't love himself as well as the control he has over his family. If they were normal they would see and address his behavior and help him get the help he needs.

Oh my goodness, what a terrible shame. I believe every one of your stories. I have the NFH also, my, they do get around, don't they. I keep hearing just ignore them. I say to you "They won't let me". They say move. I say I own my home am 67yo, DAV, female, and alone, I feel I can't and besides they RENT, let them move. I think they enjoy what they do and have done this their entire adult life , with the help of the police and others. So there what's a gal supposed to do. No peace, No peace at all. I guess this is what working hard and living a decent life gets you. These are the GOLDEN YEARS when you are alone.
