Well I’ve wanted to share this here for a while but just haven’t had the energy to put this all together and share but now I guess I will.
I been getting hit with blow after blow since October when the truck blew up in Arkansas.
My mother passed away December 20th as most of you know. Her death was challenging in many ways due to our strained relationship, but dealing with her physical property has been a whole other nightmare.
You see my mom gravitated towards low life people as long as I can remember. Hell maybe I’m a low life and don’t know it.
Anyways she had a rental trailer next door with some scum bags in there that never paid rent on time, always had an excuse and just took advantage of her.
Back in August many of you piedmont folks might recall a real bad storm that did quite a bit of damage. That storm took out several trees which fell on the rental trailer next to my moms house.
Me and my uncles had been telling my mom for a long time to get those people gone cause they were leaches. So when the tree fell on the place we were like “perfect, now they HAVE to leave”
Have you figured it out yet?
They didn’t leave. They moved in with her. “Temporarily” of course. Just until they found another place to go.
This is a 38 year old woman (who looks 55) and her dead beat 25 year old boyfriend, 2 kids who are 8 & 12. They are straight up crack heads. The kids are pretty screwed up honestly. Violent, untamed and pretty much feral if you ask me.
Anyways, these people have been living there in my mom’s house and were there when she died.
My uncle went there the day my mom died, we both knew where $15k was supposed to be, plus another $4,000 and it was all gone.
The day after mom died I was there and this woman said she was easy to get along with and would be super happy to just continue “renting” from me.
I shut that down real quick. I told her that I know she owed my mom a lot of money, and that is was best she found somewhere else to live. I said I know it’s the holidays and you have kids so I’m not throwing you out, but you need to be gone by January 3rd.
I check in on the property periodically during all of this and stuff is always shuffled and out of place from last time in my mother’s room. They’re looking for money, cause my mom hid money all over the place.
January 3rd rolled around and they were just up in there making it there home all this time. Moved my mom’s stuff off the entertainment center/mantle, and just set up their own decor and pictures.
I arrived that day with a dumpster and ready to start going thru my mom’s things and deal with the property. But she was there and I called the sheriff, and they came out and sided with her and made ME leave.
So I had to go downtown and file an official eviction for these dead beats. Court date is the 17th, that gets ruled in my favor and they have 10 days to get out. 10 days was yesterday, I filed a Writ since they did not appeal and now I have to wait for the sheriffs to come watch me change the locks, then I have to wait another 7 days for them to possibly come back for anything they may have left.
I go by there today to see if they’re already gone or still there. They’re still there packing up. Packing up things that ain’t theirs. They took the washing machine/dryer, expensive stereo equipment, the fridge, and more. They had the stove unplugged and was about to take it too. I confront her about it and she was like “your mom gave us the washer and dryer”
Complete BS. I was able to prove that wasn’t the case and catch her in many lies. She claims she don’t know what happened to the stereo and the fridge or anything. The house is trashed and it’s a huge mess. Basically I can’t do much about it unless I want to spend even more time/money on court costs and keep dragging this entire thing out.
This is very much a condensed version of everything. I have visited the property many times in between these dates. They’re always walking around tweaked out, stripping siding off the trailer and copper out of the walls.
One time I caught them off guard and she’s like “oh I’m just cleaning up” and is walking around the yard with a 5 gallon bucket of coat hangers and a drill with no battery. She will do anything to just look busy when I go over there.
Her boyfriend and his friend have tried to provoke me to a fight many times, cause they’d love to press charges on the mean ol landlord and drag it out some more.
Even in court the judge got mad at me for showing up with a dumpster cause they hadn’t been evicted. I said your honor i brought that dumpster in for my mothers things, they weren’t even supposed to be there.
It’s been a mess. And it still isn’t over. I hate it. It’s been the biggest headache I’ve ever had and I’ve been on the verge of a meltdown a handful of times. I just keep trusting God and his plan and taking one day at a time, but holy smokes has it been hard.
