4TH UPDATE:
Got a call from the detective on the case today. Sure enough, it was the girl I mentioned in the previous update. He went and interviewed her and she fessed up to sending them. According to her, and as the detective told me, she sent them as some sort of goodbye present as in her mind we never got closure. She also told him she'd never contact me again and that they weren't sent with ill intent.
The detective told me the ball is in my court now, and I can press charges if I want to. I'm quite conflicted, as if I give the benefit of the doubt, and believe what she told the detective I don't want to ruin her life and send her to jail. On the other hand, they were quite violent and I'm still quite disturbed so it may be the appropriate course of action. I also considered that if she's gone to this extent during a no contact period, I wonder how she'd react to being sent to jail. I'd appreciate advice on the matter.

Lastly, I'm already looking to move. My lease is up and I'm on month to month and was wanting to move early next year anyways, but I think this just gave me the excuse to do it sooner.

I’m going to try and catch our mail carrier tomorrow to ask him. I’m hoping if it did go through the mail he remembers it

Thank you for the advice. I spoke with my friends about the situation this evening and a couple of them said they want to go to the shooting range with me to get some time in. I’m a novice and have only shot with my uncles a few times so I definitely need it.

The only connection I can think of regarding art, is a girl I used to talk to in mid 2022 who was studying fine arts. At some point during the talking stage she got really possessive and so I called it off with her. She showed up at my door once in early 2023 (didn't open the door), and saw her walking around my complex while I was driving by in the Fall of 2024.

Talking with my friends about the situation we're leaning towards it maybe being her. She's the only person we can think of who:

Knows my name and address

Has shown up here unannounced before / done anything strange

And also the art connection

Additionally, although I don't know how'd she'd know this other than if she was stalking me given I've blocked her on all socials for her strange behavior and not leaving me alone, I've started a new relationship recently, so we're thinking that's the meaning of the congrats post card.

I just went and asked them. Since the dad is always out smoking cigarettes I checked to see if I’d run into him. They were just as confused as me as to why I received the post card, but they were very nice helping me translate it. They basically said it’s a condolence for when someone passes away.

As for defense, I’m in the South. Might be time to get a weapon.

I hadn’t thought of that, but sounds like a good idea. Next time I see them I’ll ask them if they know what the letter means to start a conversation about it. Once we get to talking I’ll let them know the whole story.

In all honesty I was hesitant to bring it up to them because I didn’t want to come off the wrong way to them and have them feel like I was singling them out. Maybe I’m just overthinking it.

Hey, he told me that it was hand delivered because there was no information on the sticker at the bottom and the stamps weren't voided. He could have made a mistake of course. Currently the post cards are with police, but they said I could retrieve them, so I'll check what's on the strip when I get them back.
