Nugget - hope you're all doing ok.
The fact you mentioned there persistent phone calls were now a 'legal matter' would have put the wind up him. Hopefully they will back off now. Yeah you will be 'marked' and they will cross the street when they see you, but at least you will have taken the fun away from them of announcing your names from the platform.
Those guys sure do love the power they give themselves and it makes them feel sooooo important when they can publicly kill someone.
Peace
