I think we need to talk about the letter that Joe (the son of the grieving mother) left about this website, the one where he apparently said that the police should close this place.
And first, I'm not going to accuse her of forging the letter, I think it's realistic to believe that he made it himself.
But while it can be seen as something incredibly selfish, I saw it that way too, he basically came here for a few days, got what he wanted and then wrote to the police to "save us" because we could be saved, but not him.
There's more to it and I think that this is actually an
extremely misguided act of care for this community.
In this post he seems to really love this place:

There's also the fact that he was abused by his girlfriend, in emotional and financial ways, I've known some people who have been manipulated in such ways, and they are always the most caring, selfless and giving individuals. And nothing about the way he posted makes me think that he had ulterior motives for writing the letter.
Still, if he loved the community so much, then quietly leaving, understanding our reasons, and not making his mother fall for vindictive rage while opening herself to harassment would've been the best thing to do.
