Hi John,  
  
I am sorry to hear about the issues that you had been experiencing with your instance. I see that the instance has terminated in the meantime. Please let us know if you need any further help.

Answer

You should be able to select it on the console even if it still says "Stopping" and select the Stop action again, this time it should have a force.  
  
If for some reason this doesn't work, you can issue it from the AWS CLI:

```
aws --region  ec2 stop-instances --instance-ids  --force
```

added {code} md
