It's not worth having your house lit on fire in the middle of the night - or as just showed up in the news - bulldozed - because some freak decided he was tired of midnight phone calls.
I think you should take him to court or just mark down the loss as a won't-do-that-again, and move on.
My 2 cents. Good luck.

Agreed. It was nice to see the board rally behind you, but this all started with a bad choice on your part (OP). With talk of slashing tires now, etc. this can only end badly.
