She posted something on Facebook a few weeks ago about glitter being a total pain in the ass to clean up, and someone sent her one of those anonymous glitter bombs from some website.

She opened it while her two-year-old was napping on her chest and glitter got in his hair.

She called the cops and they told her its not illegal and theres nothing they can do, and she called and emailed the glitter bomb company but got no response. Posted that she doesnt understand how this is legal and not assault.

I feel for her, sounds like a shitty and annoying thing to deal with, but assault??

I mean what if the kid got some kind of glitter poisoning

Or inhaled some of it and scratched its throat or some shit

I don't know what a glitter bomb is but that sounds fucking awful because yes, glitter is the literal worst.

That said, assault is too much, but misdemeanor vandalism isn't the worst idea

If I was on a jury for this, I'm 100% for the plaintiff. Glitter is devil dandruff and bombs are dangerous.

Well.. here's the law, "assault is a threat of imminent harmful or offensive contact with a person, or a threat to do so", so no.

I seriously love glitter and enjoy the fact that specks of it show up for months after you use any. I suppose I'd enjoy being glitter bombed.

bomb is a bit of a misnomer. Its just a container filled with glitter that spills out. Ive heard some of them are spring-loaded and can send glitter flying, but in her case it was just an envelope filled with glitter.

lol at devil dandruff though

Bullshit. It has to be illegal in some form. Instead of calling the lazy local PD, encourage your cousin to contact the post office about it since they have their separate LEOs. Who knows, might even nail the sender on a terrorism charge.

Glitter is a pain in the ass. I was so happy that the country club where my wedding was has a strict no glitter policy.

This is pretty much sending something off to someone you dont like with malicious intent. Something a pain in the ass to clean up and what not. Definently vandalism, just not extreme vandalism.

I could see vandalism, maybe. This is like egging someones house. Its an obnoxious prank, but its harmless. More of a nuisance than anything.

Is this going to be one of those times when you pretend not to have a plan until the last moment? And then turn out to really not have one?

I would say vandalism 100% but not assault

People who send that literal shit gift should be tried for harassment imho.

Im thinking it was more of a prank, like someone thought it would be funny. But maybe youre right. Ive never known my cousin to be a bitch, but Im not around her all that often.

Does she have any friends or fam who like pulling pranks?

I once had somebody superglue my front lock. If I had any idea who it was (and didn't have anything better to do) I would totally have called the cops. Prank or not vandalism is a crime.
