Crazy Landlord Karen Sues Black Tenant. Then This Happens

Landlord Lisa Koslowski is trying to collect rent from one of her tenants. The renter, James, is refusing to pay until several repairs in the apartment are completed. However, Lisa feels the broken appliances in the apartment are his responsibility and his alone. When she demands payment and James refuses again, Lisa decides to take him to court. Unfortunately for her, once Judge Reynolds goes over their case, it becomes evident who is truly at fault.

Rental agencies and landlords that don't make repairs in a timely fashion or provide adequate heat during cold winter days are called SLUMLORDS. The term was coined by the late Howard F. Trussel, Attorney-in-Charge of the all Bronx and Westside Manhattan, then Housing Court Judge. The man was a law genius.

[@mayfleur36]

I have a “landlord” just like this. The roof of where I’m living has been a disaster, since we had a hurricane touch down, over a year ago. Landlord has done sweet diddly squat. And when the roof started leaking, and later on, the light in my bedroom ceiling fell through. Ceiling in bedroom has not been fixed, and it’s been going on 2 years. According to a tenancy agreement (I’m in Canada), it says that a landlord is supposed to keep the rental property in a good state of repair and liveable, during the tenancy. None of which my landlord has been doing 😤

[@chelbydavis8202]

@@mayfleur36 you need to take her to court

[@TerpFan]

My old landlord was lousy (and still is)! He wonders why he can’t keep tenants. There was a tenant who was scaring other tenants away, but the landlord didn’t care. So now the landlord is facing Karma; the tenant who scare everyone away managed to get the landlord barred from his own property with a restraining order. So the landlord now has to fight it.

Failure to take care of her responsibility as a landlord.

[@pbscraze]

Outcome: Nobody is above the law by any means. All owners of apartments should always make sure that their tenants have the proper tools they need and should never be subject to racism of any kind. As stubborn as she was to the bitter end, Lisa refused to pay James a dime for repairs. So as punishment was promised, Lisa was sentenced to 7 years in prison for failure to comply. As a result, she lost her house, apartment and everything she owned, which was okay with James. Once he moved into a nicer community and saved up enough money to buy his own house, this motivated James to start his own company so nobody would ever have to live in poor conditions like he did. His business exploded nationwide as time passed

Unfortunately "God" doesn't exist -- except in superstitious minds. "God" has been responsible for so much misery, physical torture, and death since the beginning of deism, over five thousand years ago. Innocents have been burned, castrated, stretched on the rack, pressed with weights, and every other means of inflicting pain in the name of a non-existent deity. It was mankind (which includes women) who invented "God" for power, political gain and greed so, everyone had a purpose for "God" not the other way round.
