I get the feeling Grawp isn't expecting us to do anything off-wiki. If the victims call the police, it would at the very least (unless I'm wrong, which is always possible) surprise him, possibly awaken his mom/guardian to the reality of the situation, and probably turn this from a "game" in his mind into an exchange with very real people. OTOH, he might just laugh at us for overreacting... but at least that way he'll get more careful, meaning no more death threats (on-wiki at least, if he gets abusive via email the victims can employ filtering, if he gets abusive on IRC the chanops can ban him etc.) and less vandalism (maybe). We should probably complain to <insert government official | insert journalist> that Verizon is being oh-so-useless right now...
