Lackadaisical Land-Lording

The fact that he's smiling while saying he might of had his accident there is crazy

[@bigred1075]

I came here to see if I was the only one who was upset at how he kept smiling and laughing when he would talk about the "accident" as he so put it.. I'm surprised the judge didn't say anything to him.. but has a huge cross on the wall which indicates they are Christians. He should have been more sympathetic. And the fact that she said she had to get a priest to clean the house of evil spirits was also messed up. She didn't have to say evil spirits. She simply could have said to cleanse the house. To me she implied the son had evil spirits and they were left there when he died.. smh

[@silvermillennial]

Every time he said "accident", I got a little angrier. This case really gets under my skin, almost more than the one with the parents hiding their son's girlfriend in their house.

@@yesterdayitrained Sadly, you are probably not wrong. It is not particularly about being Catholic, because you see it in all religions - there is this passive-aggressive thing in a certain kind of believer which they think that if you see that they are embracing their religious ideas that people will give them a pass for being A-holes. The in-your-face religion becomes a smokescreen for doing the wrong thing. The majority of believers tend to be trying to do the right thing, but the ones that go to court wearing a large cross, or obvious religion-based clothing or headgear, or, like this, deliberately frame their video to prominently display the cross and the prayer on the wall, these are the ones not to trust.

Your husband may not have really known himself- it could have been done in a moment of anger or frustration, or after feeling deep, intense sadness for a relatively short period of time. And even if your husband or my cousin could provide an answer I’m not really sure if it would ever be ‘satisfactory’ or really explain it. Again, I’m so sorry and I wish you well.

[@kimberlyadorno280]

The defendant laughing is frustrating (I hope it's just nerves). They have at least one child. This is every parent's (any parent who loves their child/ren) worst nightmare. I understand the landlords not wanting to do the walkthrough without having the house blessed but it's unacceptable how long they waited for their priest. They should have found another priest. A whole month went by without anyone entering to see how the tenants actually left the premises. Now, the defendant's speculation on how things were damaged is certainly possible and under the circumstances probably true. But I think it's pretty negligent not having someone perform a walkthrough when the tenants vacated the property, because what if someone broke into the home during that month because they knew the house was empty? (Not what I think, but it could easily have happened) Someone taking their life is unfortunately "news" that spreads quickly, especially in this technological time we live in. So I'm sure many people knew/assumed the house was completely empty. They should have asked someone else to do the walkthrough or found someone else to bless the home sooner. I'll finish this by saying I assume the defendants' intentions weren't bad, but the way the husband laughed when talking about the damages and the wife wanting to charge for the carpet cleaning despite telling the plaintiff their daughter wanted new carpeting was disappointing. I hope and pray anyone reading this never experiences the pain, loss, and grief the plaintiff and many others have. My heart goes out to anyone who's ever lost a loved one, especially to suicide or violence 🙏 Edit: Oh...and I'm surprised the defendants felt comfortable allowing their daughter to move in after the incident. They were too afraid to simply walk through the house. Priest or no priest, none of my children would be living there. If they live in a small town or have nosey neighbors, the house/apartment is going to be a tough sell. In my state, they don't have to outright tell potential renters or buyers about the suicide but they can't lie or withhold the details if asked. I don't know many people who knowingly want to live in a house/home with that history.

What you stated is so true. I would smile all the time, but deep down I wanted to die. I am so thankful Jesus protected me. I am now living the best years of my life. And it is not because I have material items either. I am content.

[@Childfree334]

Love the tenant/landlord cases. My second favorite are the used car purchases.

[@abochen2]

Wow, those landlords are total garbage. I get the damages, but the time frame and their attitude. Poor plantiff is shaking the whole time

[@hepcat620]

When these 2 landlords go before St. Peter to be judged, I hope he plays this episode of People's Court for them before condemning them to an eternity of damnation.

[@candiceh7975]

OMG, just disgusting. How can he laugh. This is sad, and I understand the damage from the incident but the charges. Ewl, pure disgusting. Shame on them, I hope the mother continues to heal.

[@bigarie]

Prayers up to the plaintiff ❤️ . She’s literally shaking & the defendants find comedy in her sons suicide. Judge Milian has sucked lately she’s no longer consistent in her judgements.

[@katymcginn4644]

💜 YES, I AGREE! THOSE DEFENDANTS ARE BOTH JUST EVIL PEOPLE 😑 I WILL NOT WATCH THIS SHOW ANY LONGER AFTER THIS. JM IS SO NUTS ANYMORE, YOU'RE RIGHT, NOT CONSISTENT WITH HER JUDGEMENT'S. AT ALL. SO I'M DONE, NOT WATCHING HER HURT INNOCENT, KIND, POOR PEOPLE WHO REALLY NEED THEIR MONEY BACK. YET SHE GIVES IT TO THESE SLUMLORDS WHO DON'T DESERVE ANY BACK! IT'S ALL A TAX WRITE OFF FOR ANY REPAIRS THAT THEY DO ON THAT RENTAL PROPERTY. IT'S SO DISGUSTING 😠 JM SUCKS, I KNOW THAT SHE'S A SLUMLORD TOO!

[@JolieUTU]

The landlords are disgusting, especially the wife talking about “evil spirits” when the grieving mother could hear her. And the idiot husband laughing all through his testimony. I hope they never see another dime in rent in their miserable lives again. Feel so bad for the defendant & she deserved more money back than she got.

[@davidellis5141]

That couple give landlords a bad name.

[@jennylynx1869]

I don’t go in my basement a lot, so I believe her about the leak. She also was in mourning for losing someone suddenly. All of these tiny things could have been let go. Karma is real. Doing something kind won’t hurt. Also doing the walk through a month later is just ridiculous

[@blurrble5]

The defendants are heartless. How are you going to smile while talking about how the water pipe probably broke during the son's suicide?

[@Childfree334]

Milian pissed me off today 🤬. How DARE SHE sit up on her throne and say that people who commit suicide are now on the other side regretting it? Seriously? As if being in this world is not torture enough. Many people just do not want to be here, so they take themselves out. They are not crazy, they are not cowards. They just don't want to live anymore. That is not a difficult concept to understand. Look at the world around us. That is why I did not have kids. Why force people into this world just to suffer and be wage slaves? If I had the choice whether or not to be born, I would have told my mother to terminate and leave me in blissful oblivion. I have done well for myself in life, but given the option I would prefer not to have ever been born. Sorry if this anger people, but as a veteran nurse I have seen too much suffering of people who have confessed these very things to me.

[@tabithaedwards745]

Exactly It's my choice to end it. The government has enough to do with us being born in slave's. When it's time I will return to the earth. I watched my mom struggle with Huntington's disease and I knew I would make a difference in my life. It's my choice not anyone else.

[@supaflychik78]

Yes .. as someone who struggles with mental illness she has no idea what that pain feels like. She should have kept her opinion to herself on this one .. she’s is also nosey as hell .. wanting to know irrelevant info 🤦🏽‍♀️

[@pamelahaze3211]

I agree with you... the earth is beautiful..but The man made world Su(ks and the system Su(ks...and people Su(k too. I totally get why a person would want to take themselves out. I wouldn't though I definitely thought about it.. I guess I am more afraid of ... Than all the devil's and a holes here.. Anyhow what used to p**" me off was so called "godly people".. Who hatefully would say... Well...That persons going to h*** I call BS

[@theenergyisoff]

15:45 Judge you should’ve left that idea inside your mind. Your “Up there” 🙄 regretting what they’ve done comment was insensitive and unnecessary. Where ever he is I hope he found the peace that he was looking for on Earth.

[@LadyWhiggy]

If you are currently considering suicide, please do not make a permanent decision for a temporary problem. Everything is temporary! If that doesn't mean anything to you consider the ones who love you and the pain you'll be inflicting on them. You'll be gone, but their lifelong pain is just beginning. Not to mention the financial burden to come. Please think twice.

[@judieversaul4274]

I say that ALL the time, so true. Thank you.☮️

[@amyalvar]

Judge should have never awarded anything for the gate on the siding. If the landlord didn't care enough to provide evidence, you don't get it. You don't have to replace the siding either. You can patch it to where it's the same color of the house and it won't leak.

[@bobbrown9161]

I appreciate the way they staged their little Christian trinkets on the wall behind them. Who hangs a crucifix that high on the wall, unless they really wanted it to be in frame of the camera. Why is it that people who profess so loudly they are good Christians are often the most self centered people among us. I look forward to their day of judgement.

[@Laura-tp8wz]

This is so sad. May he RIP and may his mom and family be blessed.

[@layahYasharahla]

The judge kind of made it worse she said that they are up there thinking that they made a bad decision . Like how does that comfort the mother 😟 Anyways that guy was smiling way to much for something so tragic but maybe that’s just how he deals with serous situations . Some people do 👍🏾

[@kyliemarie6386]

I’m shocked that the judge didn’t double the amount she was returning to the plaintiff. She always doubles the amount where it’s required!! How can she say that they didn’t deserve to be penalised when to the plaintiffs face, they acted one way and said one thing I.e “oh don’t worry about the carpets we are replacing them” - then charge her to clean them even though they are still replacing them. Then “of course you can get out of your leases… our daughter will be moving in there” - then penalise her for cutting the lease short. “Yes you can put up a gate” with no questions asked but the judge penalises the plaintiff for it! How did they think the gate was going to stand?! And as for the door, they hadn’t returned to the house for over a month! How does anybody not think about the fact that someone could have potentially tried to break in, in that time span?! The judge was really unfair to this plaintiff, especially considering she is much more tougher with litigants who actually have some kind of proof! These defendants had no proof of anything and in situations where there is no proof, the judge usually says “well that’s too bad, you knew you were coming here today and without any proof/photos/quotes, it doesn’t exist and you’re out of luck”

[@patim5953]

I'm very surprised the Plaintiff could remember telling the defendants anything at all after losing her child to suicide. I lost my child and couldn't remember anything, I was a zombie. I'm sure she was too.

[@Kat-bu3bn]

@ Pati M I’m so sorry for your lose. My worst nightmare. ❤️

[@annereidy7981]

Sorry for your loss, that is terrible.

[@Monipenny1000]

Judge couldn't have been more fair. The landlords should have had photographic evidence of the damaged door unless the picture is showing that the tenant made that shoddy repair after the door was kicked in then that makes sense. I agree with the judge on the carpet, you don't tell the tenant, "don't worry about the carpet, our daughter wants new carpet anyway". Doesn't matter if they changed their mind, the cleaning costs is on them. Good call judge, you are right! I am a bit disgusted they were trying to get her for "breaking the lease". As a landlady myself, seems to me they were trying to use up her deposit without properly deducting legitimate damages.

[@livvv666]

Wtf is wrong with these landlords... absolutely disgusting .

[@BigLoBabyLo]

We didn't say we'd let her out of the lease. We just said we'd let her out but didn't mean we'd give her the security deposit back 🙃..Sir you're a goofy.

[@Samirah313]

I cannot imagine!!! Heavenly Father, please keep Your Loving Arms around this mother and her family. Envelope her with Love, Peace and Comfort!!! Keep an Army of Angels around her always!!! AMEN 🙏🏾

[@goymedhundDogtrainingBehavior]

i wish we had the same laws in Norway. if you live together for many many years - but the one has children ( before ) . even if the children are adults when you meet and move together - if you take care of your spouse for YEARS ..You STILL have nothing to say the day the spouse die. the children can come and take everything.. ( only what you can proove is yours belongs to you) ..Even if the children have not seen their parent for 50 years - the day they die they kids can come and take it.. the only thing you can give away in a testament is after the children has taken stuff including money - for 220.000 dollars each.. If anything is left you can have it if it is testamented to you... if your children steal from you all your life, hit you, and abuse you .. as long is it can not be prooven in court ( and even if - it seldom leads anywhere) you can NOT keep your children out of the will and they STILL are entiteled to items/money to the value of 220.000 dollars .. horrible laws.

[@vintagehippie3647]

The landlords obviously have had a blessed life without any trauma of loss. Particularly the loss of a child who took their own life with no apparent reason and didn't leave a note. The poor mom will forever feel guilt over what she might have missed and could have helped with. There is absolutely no way I could charge any money. Actually I would have offered to pack the belongings and pay for a mover to take the stuff to her. I would never expect the mom to have to set foot in my home where her child killed himself. Karma will get those two 1000 fold for their unsympathetic actions. Bad, bad people.

[@quarantine1993]

The defendants are literally smirking and laughing about her son killing himself… absolutely disgusting people

[@TheAATheorist]

The wife is so worried about having a priest bless the house after the other unalived himself, while the husband is sitting over there laughing about an area that involved the person that is no longer with us.... That is disgusting and God couldn't save those people anyway. Shame on them.

[@mercedesisblack]

Seven minutes into this and I can tell you right now that if you change your mind to do a walk-through after I move out you better not hold me for shit

[@condesabeatriz9303]

Exactly

[@andrewstorer1481]

Not sure I've ever disliked someone as much as that awful grinning man😬

[@Ly5andra]

Wow that guy is a jerk, no compassion! I would never sue for damages in a situation like that….

[@ninaalcantar4148]

The fact they kept money for damages after a situation like that with crosses and religious imagery behind them proves they have no idea what their religion preaches.

[@thatsassyrepublican]

Poor thing was shaking all video. I'm so sorry 😪😪😪😪

[@RileyCullen1]

What’s wrong with that fool smiling through out his testimony? There’s nothing to smile about. And that’s the defendants issues about them being busy & wanting the priest to bless the house. And who would want to stay in the house after their child commits suicide? I wouldn’t have charged her anything. These defendants are just plain idiots. Having her have to sue is just bringing up her hurt even more.

[@portlandgirlx0x096]

Attempted suicide survivers have said while they were dying that they wished they would live! I think JM is trying to give advice to those contemplating suicide. Her words reach a large audience. 🕊

[@yesterdayitrained]

Wow. You may be right. I didn’t think about it that way.

[@Maqqin]

No

[@getin3949]

Is Marilyn losing her memory, even I heard the woman say her son hung himself in the basement the first time.

[@mellvee]

That poor woman. Sounds like she's partially deaf, also. I feel very badly for her, as a mother, and I am going to go home and hug my 18 and 21 year old sons very tightly tonight. They're both adults now and only live at home when they're not in the dorms, but I'm very thankful they're happy, healthy and alive.

[@shelberz1]

Thank you JM

[@myshanamakisi6063]

"Remove the evil spirits"...😒

[@granitemoss1451]

I think that people who want to withhold $125 for the cost to replace the pipe that broke when the tenant's son hung himself from it must have no souls. Yeah, it stinks to eat that cost and the others, but you chalk it up to just one of those things and return the security deposit in full just to take one thing off the poor tenant's plate in her time of crisis. These people are straight up jerks.

[@lisajohnson521]

The defendant watches too many scary movies and her husband is even holding back a laugh.

[@williamlanphar630]

I normally am in full agreement . In this case , however, the fact that the owner insisted on " waiting for the priest to come bless the house " is an unreasonable burden put on the Tennant. You should have doubled the $ 250 if only for this reason.

[@condesabeatriz9303]

Exactly.
