I'm more than happy to admit when I'm wrong, but this is paranoid and unnecessary until he behaves in a way that would indicate otherwise.
Why would it be an overreaction to assume that someone with the same IP address as a banned member posting under a different name is a troll? Especially if they used the name of a dead member they could have very easily learned about. In fact I'd think it was common sense rather than paranoia to assume they were a troll. I say ban the ****er.
