If he’s willing to go that far, then talking to him won’t help at all. If someone is this obsessed with something, chances are they’re so lost in their delusions that people telling him he has a problem would probably make it worse. It’s a logical fallacy of “they dislike my beliefs or think I’m crazy, so I must be right.” It’s the same reason conspiracy theorists and the like will hold on to or even strengthen the supposed infallibility of their beliefs even when confronted with evidence to the contrary. Ignoring him would probably be the best thing to do, however, judging someone as criminal without just cause is beyond wrong.
