abuse@offender's.isp.com , cc this list, especially if it bounces in a way that looks permanent. If it's a police issue...and so it reads, then a whois search can give you clues about phone calls. or postmaster@offender's.isp.com , not my first choice. Included for archaic reasons (more widely supported). webmaster@offender's.isp.com , probably not the best option, since the biggest issues they typically have are copyvios.

Let's remember that we may have to do something about Grawp and ED, as he is harassing users there too.

There would be no shortage of people to sign a petition to the ISP, if
you
want to go that route. This has gone on long enough.

If he's making threats of violence and stalking then you should contact his local police. They'll probably at least discuss it with him and he'll either stop or eventually criminal proceedings will occur. Doesn't sound like there's any other option.
Forensic analysis of his computer could doubtless prove it was him doing this, not his mother who shares the same IP.
You could also contact his ISP. It puts them in a bad light to have someone like that on their networks and nearly always violates T&C- they might well want to terminate his service. But he'll probably just get another ISP; but depending on where he lives there might not be many ISPs in his area.
Perhaps the Foundation could send a cease-and-desist letter to both her and him, cc the ISP?
