      She obviously was not trespassing. Slander would definitely be an escalation.

          Technically depending on where you are staying on property after you have been asked to leave counts as different types of crime. In America it’s a tresspass misdemeanor with fines usually a couple of hundred dollars so it’s not uncommon for folks to just pay the fee to be a nuisance. In Canada it’s called “Assault by Tresspass” and is considered for criminal purposes a form of assault and the fines are about 10 grand.

          Generally speaking if you want cops to enforce a law with enthusiasm you have to make it worth the systems while.

          She left when asked. The church was presumably open to people to come join in.
