Make it so any pictures they post are deleted, but keep the information for when you do call the police (at their business number, not 911).

You could always change it to a porn forum.  Maybe he'll start posting video game pictures.

Try closing the forum for a bit, it might make him move to a new one to post his nasty’s.

Or make it so all new users have to post a legitimate post in a "sandbox"/welcome section before they post in (or even see for that matter), the rest of the forum.

Maybe it's just me, but wouldn't it be a lot easier to temporarily disable images?  Instead of adding all of these features to complicate things for regular users and make them jump through hoops, just disable this feature until things calm down.  And instead of deleting whatever new accounts this kid keeps making, just change the privileges of his account so that he can view the forum and make new posts, but nobody else will be able to see anything he says.  Because his account stays active, he won't have to keep making new ones.  And he can do whatever he wants (until he eventually gets bored) and nobody else will have to see or deal with him.  It's a fairly common method of phasing out those persistent trolls who keep coming back.

and that somehow makes it a good choice?

The objective of people like this is to disrupt the forum. Guess what shutting it down does?
