Woman Called Cops on Landlord with Cancer over Missing Diffuser?

So sad that the defendant had to face such a situation with police coming to her door. I’m sure even the police was taken off guard with such a horrid action taken by the plaintiff 😱. The defendant’s daughter was so right to send her that message, but I’m guessing by her attitude of calling it harassment, the piece of shit could not have learned anything from that message. No heart, just a cold piece of iceberg that landed on shore and nothing that makes it melt. Well let’s see, As the world turns, karma can be devastating. My prayers to the defendant, her calm supportive husband who sat in court with her and her beautiful family that one can surely see from that text, is their for their mum, very protective and supportive. Prayers, Hugs, love, to this beautiful family 🥰❤️

[@crpsaiyan]

There's something really wrong with that plaintiff. She called the police over a diffuser that is roughly $51?! She couldn't even prove that the defendant took it. For all we know, it's possible that the other tenant who was living there found a way to get into her room. Who's to say that the other person didn't take it? When I saw that text message from the defendant's daughter, my first reaction was, "what?! Why would she call the police over something as petty as a diffuser!?", not to mention going after someone who is battling cancer? People like the plaintiff are just SICK!

[@imagoatiswear1938]

I mean you don't know how much money the plaintiff is making tho. 51 dollars is like half of what I have to live with a month so losing something so expensive? of course you would call the cops. Also did she even know beforehand that the defendant had cancer or did she only find out when the daughter texted her? I'm not saying she's completely in the right but I feel like the defendant just saying she has cancer has everyone going blind. Having cancer doesn't mean you can't steal. Maybe you're so short on money that you have to steal to afford your medical bills or something...

[@crpsaiyan]

@@imagoatiswear1938 We're not excusing the defendant on account that she has cancer. We're excusing her because the plaintiff has NO PROOF that the defendant took the diffuser. Again, for all we know, it could've been the other tenant who did it.

[@jeffrowisdabest]

I have a feeling that there's a *lot* bigger story behind all of this that Judge Judy (thankfully) didn't get into.

[@dashopepper]

The bigger story probably is that the plaintiff was asked repeatedly not to use the diffuser (or at least not use over-powering scents in it). The diffuser might have been in her room, but the scent was everywhere in the house. The other tenant might have been annoyed by it, but it's likely that the smell contributed to the landlord's post-chemotherapy reactions, which would be reason enough for a rational person to stop using it. But we know the plaintiff wasn't rational.

[@Blessed_Mom2420]
