Got any biker buddies?
Half a dozen 1%rs in a fireside chat have a wonderful way of enticing him to pursue his romantic interest in a different direction.

Sorry to derail, but woah buddy... my grammar and syntax alarms are ringing!
Anyway, back to our regularly scheduled broadcast- follow what Byte said at the very least- get an RO and make sure to document EVERYTHING! Get a copy of your wife's phone records (you can usually download these) and have a log of every text, call, and time/date for them. Take this to your local PD. I have a friend who had a stalker that wouldn't leave her alone- she couldn't change her number because it was provided by her job, she got the RO, guy didn't respect the limits, and ended up behind bars. I know you don't want to have someone put away, but if there is a potential for danger here (which it would appear so) I'd rather this loon get locked up than something bad happen to you or the missus. Good luck!

I'm going to re-enforce a lot of what has already been said. I can not stress enough the need to to keep a log of events. A simple call or text here and there will not make a stalking case. Stalking is a complicated case and it generally takes time to make a case. Literally keep a book or excel sheet of every sighting and contact you have had. Make notes of the dates and times. Make sure you have a record of any conversation where you and more importantly she has told him to stop all contact. Then make sure that both of you don't initiate any contact with him. If he continues there can be criminal charges. Usually harassment. This can be difficult if he does call at odd hours or multiple times. Another reason to log things.
If he continues contact or makes a single (even vague) threat get a restraining order. Its a piece of paper but a piece of paper that if he violates it will get him a mandatory trip to jail.
If you see him write down his vehicle description and a plate, if you can get it without following the guy. If you see him around where you live I recommend letting your neighbors know. More eyes are always good.
Physical security is always a good idea. Digital security cameras are relatively inexpensive and the ability to record evidence is great. Especially if there is a restraining order in place. A handy bit of advice. if you do get a restraining order and you see him take a picture if you can. Even with the camera on your phone. Otherwise its your word against his unless its a public place with video cameras that record.
At this point I would be less worried about his well being and be more worried about you and your wife. From what you have said it sounds like the guy has issues.
If you do these things it will help you deal with law Enforcement and the Prosecution if it comes to that. It gives them the tools to help you. Its as close as you are going to get to a win-win situation.
he is from Puerto Rico, how about cutting him some slack?

The Temporary Protection Order is easy to get from the judge. No judge I've ever dealt with has refused a reasonable application, primarily because they dont want to be the one who didn't give out a TPO and the victim gets harmed. The issue will be service of it to the suspect, which needs to happen, so it can be enforced.

A veteran is someone who, at one point in his life, wrote a blank check made payable to 'The United States of America ' for an amount of 'up to and including my life.'
That is Honor, and there are way too many people in this country who no longer understand it.
One of the best lines in the whole movie!

I'll definitely look into the TPO . We are keeping full records of everything and all contact has been in text form that we are keeping , all time stamped. At this point we are hoping he has gotten the point and there will be no further communication. There definitely won't be from our side. If there is then we will inform him of our next action of a RO and go from there. Currently he doesn't know we've made a report and spoken to the police. I have no intention of placing his well being over my family,
