Dogshit-Flinging "World's Worst Neighbor" Arrested for Murder Plot
Called the "World's Worst Neighbor" for threatening behavior that allegedly included hurling rocks and dog shit, an Oregon man was arrested last week after police say he tried to order a contract killing on one of his victims.
For more than a year, those living near 57-year-old Jeffrey Wright Leonard have had problems with the Eugene resident, filing multiple stalking and restraining orders against him. From Vocativ:
Records show that over the next 11 months, [one] neighbor renewed his restraining order against Leonard twice. He claimed Leonard repeatedly hurled dog shit at his house and would blast the neighbor with a floodlight every time the neighbor left his home.
While this dustup unfolded, a different neighbor filed a stalking protective order against Leonard in March 2014, alleging he pelted her house with rocks, menaced her and her family with profanities and regularly turned his floodlight on their home.
Jailed twice for violating those orders, Leonard hit the big time this month after he reportedly asked a former cellmate to murder one of his neighbor by ramming their car into a telephone pole.
"We're convinced this man meant business," said a police spokesperson, "and if our source was not going to agree to kill this guy, somebody else would."
