Small community hosting a festival, during which, a few cars parked in my bosses lot, despite the NO PARKING signs. My boss asked some young kids to move their cars out of the lot after witnessing them urinating on another car. At that time, they flipped him off and mocked him. Unfortunately, my boss was intoxicated and proceded to "key several cars". The local law enforcement advised my employer to write letters of apology accepting financial responsibility for damages to the cars and rental cars, if needed.
So far, everyone seems to be very understanding and cooperative, however, one man that parks illegally on the lot daily, sent a letter accepting the apology but demanding an additional $2,000 for inconveniences.
My boss is the sweetest, calmest person I know, I am shocked at this incident, but understand that this is nothing like his true character and has never had an incident of the like, in his past. I think of how many times he could have had this man's car towed and such and think it's outrageous for him to "extort" him for further money. Is there any time of response that we can send without worry of further extortion, harassment, or any public embarassment?
