I'm not sure I follow everything you just said OP.
My suggestion to anyone that has a person in their life that is bringing them down is to confront that person to de-escalate the drama and failing that to exit that person from your world. Life is too short to put up with someone that is causing you the distress it appears to be causing you. This could be hard if its family or a boss. If this person is your boss then it could require courage and still not might be worth it unless you have alternative work opportunities. But if the person is your friend or a neighbor you might be surprised that many would respond with grace to asking for some space.
If someone is trying to manipulate you away from your chosen beliefs and you don't like that then the simplest response is to not be around that person.

Done and done in the kindest most assertive and gentle way. No threats. No telling them they are bad etc. Since had zero consensual contact with the individual and been in contact with a detailed report to my therapist.

Did. Many times over. I'm leaving now to my brother's for safety.
This person likely never will understand how far backwards everyone in our family has bent over for them. Because they are full of pride and jealousy and shame they will very likely never have gratitude or even be able to fathom the sacrifice and forgiveness levied there way.
I expect once they have no more targets and figure out that they will be the sole occupant of this house illegally. When the police arrive. They'll be on there way.
Family and neighbors coming together on this.
Definitely we need to reopen the insane asylums in this country.
I suppose we could focus our prayers on person X being able to be honest and truthful and sensitive and becoming able to understand Jesus Christ and his message on a personal level without all of the extra uneeded suffering. And maybe to respect others and Jesus himself for starters.
