If he was already on probation, the axe incident should have landed him in jail for longer than two weeks.
-
Steal a candy bar from the local Winn Dixie and cops will arrest you for shoplifting. Steal a house, and it takes two years and an eviction notice to force them out ??
-
Gotta love the slimy lawyer. "My client couldn't believe that he responded the way he did." Yeah, okay pal your client up until that moment was a choir boy.
-
While he was in jail the bank should've had his stuff removed from the premises and the vehicles towed to an impound lot. He was trespassing therefore in no position to make deals of any kind.
-
How the hell do you move in an empty house for two years!!!! Most hardworking tax payers can't even get financed to buy a home. Something is very wrong!!
-
He lived there for two full years rent-free! Wow, and then he gets two weeks for going after a news crew with an ax. It is amazing. It truly is!
-
How do the words “squatter” and “rights” belong in the same sentence? Of course people will squat if it’s somehow legal.
-
It was no surprise they found a stolen car there too, some people think they are above the law.
-
Hell if I lived rent-free for 2+ years I'd have enough saved to just buy the damn thing.
-
I'm pretty sure that after he left, no one would want to live in that house. He probably destroyed it.
-
Best thing to happen in this case was for that guy to threaten them with the ax. It went from a civil case to a criminal case and now the police can step and arrest him.
-
they should of cleared out the house while he was in jail.
-
What happens to the reporters right to not being attacked? That man has aggravated assault and priors...WTH?
-
Great! Give the dishonest violent criminal two weeks notice so he has time to destroy the place before moving on.
-
He's lucky he was given two weeks notice after squatting for years. Two weeks to find another forgotten listing and never have to pay rent for the rest of his life.
-
THE LAWS NEED TO BE TOUGHENED AND SEVERE, IN SUCH A WAY AS TO DETER ANYMORE OF THIS!!!
-
if you're going to squat in a beautiful home, why would you park cars all over the place, trash the place, call the police to that place for domestic disputes etc?
-
They should've made him pay his 2 free years and for all the property damage he has done.
-
This is why you have a conceal carry. People can be crazy like this
-
Sounds like the bank had the power to have him removed the whole time. They just didn't want to be bothered with it until the law got involved with this incident.
