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?
