Neighbors heard screams, whimpering, banging

And yet did nothing.

One article had info on how one woman called the police several times but they couldn't figure out where the screams were coming from.
One neighbor went and banged on their door and was told that nothing was going on.

So they did a little. But not enough.

Welcome to most any low-rent apartment complex.

Had one of my tool pushers fall (icy/bad steps at his apt.) and get seriously hurt went to see the family.

The blood/brains were still on the pavement 3 days later.

I've pulled up to my own house and heard screams, yelling, thumping. Kids play, they scream their heads off...sometimes they get hurt and scream their heads off - the bounce around and carry on. Anyone walking by might wonder. . .but honestly the kids are fine.

I would be loathe to call the cops any time I heard a kid scream or thump, especially if they seem to be fine and at their liberty most days.

I don't know what the solution is.

Actually, they did go down and bang on Devlin's door and tell him to cool it... but, did not call police.

BTW, the neighbor was on Gretta Monday night and he was very strange in his own right.
