I'm hoping that I contacted the right kehillah. I think that I did. I asked Leah and she didn't respond, so that's a good sign.As I've said, the Anti Messianics' "rabbis" & kehillot have a right to know if they're made "tamei" by members who contact Messianic Jews. Furthermore, Leah harassed the "dead" and "idolatrous"; and since she considers us such, she violated Tanakh & halakhah by contacting us. I also let her know that her kehillah had been contacted, so my hands & conscience are clean. Pray that she is rebuked swiftly & mercifully.
The halakhah which she violated:
- From MazorNet.com. See "For a Jew who Converted to Another Religion".
- From TheYeshivaWorld.com. "Going off the derech is one thing. But intermarrying or shmadding, and you break off all contact with that person after sitting shiva for him/her."
- Directly from Tanakh, the Complete Jewish Bible Translation
So, you can see that my threat to contact Anti Messianics' kehillot when the Anti Messianic is contacting us "dead" Messianics is not idle.

I think you handled this correctly and maturely. :)
What has come of it so far? If it was a reprieve of the harassment, then that is good, as that's probably the best outcome to desire.
It sadly wasn't. Her "rabbi" has been informed, though.
