A Jailhouse Swindle

The plaintiff loaned the defendant money to avoid eviction, but the defendant hasn’t paid her back, so she’s suing. The defendant says her husband and the plaintiff’s son are in the same jail and that’s how they met. The defendant insists she once drove the plaintiff to the jail to visit her son, and the defendant gave her the loan as a thank you.

Loan or not, if someone gives you money to pay your rent so you don't become homeless, you should pay them back out of gratitude.

[@t.lucalake8963]

EXACTLY!! Sadly, some soulless people were raised by wolves.

[@DPhasely]

I agree.

[@FelipeElGatoBustamanteRenda]

If anyone you know that's in the same economic bracket goes into their pockets and loans you money... you should pay it back out of gratitude AND BECUASE ITS THE RIGHT THING TO DO. Not swindle people who gp out of their way to help you.

​@@k.lorrainethank you for showing everyone you have no moral compass. Maybe be a criminal defense attorney. Rapists and murders need people with no conscience like you to try to keep them out of jail. People with good morals would not just take money from others even if it was "charity". A good person would at least make an effort to repay what they have been given. I felt the need to explain since you obviously don't know what the thoughts of a good person are.

[@ashjohnson2406]

⁠​⁠@@RoughRaiders13 It truly takes less effort to be kind. They didn’t take time to comprehend your original comment before responding with a condescending tone. It was truly unnecessary. The initial comment used, “charity” in the wrong context. Charity is the voluntary giving of help. Charity is not a loan, it’s the opposite. There is no expectation for “charity” to be repaid. However, your point was still clear despite the improper use of the word “charity”.

[@davidswick8571]

I live by the fact that EVEN IF IT IS A GIFT, if somebody asks for payment GIVE IT BACK. If they are asking for a gift back, then they probably need it, so it is time to help them back in their time in need just like they helped me. I remember one Judge Judy episode where the defendant was ADAMANT it was a loan and right after she read the verdict and right before she banged her gavel (she may have already banged it) and turned to the defendant and said, "I am not wrong, but lets say this is one of the very few times that I am wrong. You borrowed it for XXX which is your responsibility and not the plaintiffs so you SHOULD pay it back. This is one verdict where if I am wrong, I won't lose any sleep over it." So all these people with the excuse that it is was just a gift - get a life.

[@arianefr78]

I've read all the comments of others and I do not agree that the plaintiff is honest, I find her very dubious indeed, I think she got the defendant to write down her full name (which is NOT a signature) and then added the apparent 'loan' details after she had 'given' the $365, and I certainly don't believe her that the money she got from her boss was given to the defendant, especially as the dates are not consistent with her testimony...
