Avoid her for the next thirty days do not answer calls. on the 31st day leave her stuff out on the street and put a note saying "this shit is not mine so I am putting this out on the street" and let the wolves take care of the rest. Completely legal and gives a challenge for the woman to retrieve her items on time, kind of like a video game. fun.
 
Thats bullshit to me. I would call the police station, ask for a supervisor or the damn police chief.

Your ex roommate and her family trashes, vandalizes, and destroys property that you will ultimately be liable for and the police can't do anything?

What kind of lazy fucking police force is this?

Civil dispute, generally not a police matter. Take her to court. Do not throw her stuff on the curb, you may need to legally evict her. I would see the landlord about a lock change.

I disagree with people saying not to escalate. Your ex roommate is a piece of shit who obviously gets away with this kind of stuff on a regular basis.

Destroy her.

Have you ever been in a situation like this? Did you "destroy" people who got away with things you didn't like?

It's not his job to make sure she doesn't get away with this. It's easier to just fix what he can and move on. If he can't do that, then things can escalate.

Like that? Not exactly. But I went to war with my rude, awful neighbors and they moved as a result. I went to court over a different apartment when I found out the lease holder was screwing me over and he lost rather big. In both situations, I tried to be reasonable but in both cases they doubled down on their assholeness. I was glad when both situations were over but I'd be lying if I said I didn't enjoy putting them through the ringer along the way.

Hi, use the internet and destroy her forever.

Buy a domain name with her full name and state in it

Find pics of her, screenshot her facebook

Upload the pictures of the damages done by her and her family, along with their names (from facebook). Put all the legally availablr infos you can find about her there.

Document everything.

Contact her and mentions that if she refuses to cooperate like an adult, there will be consequences.

If she refuses, send the url to her friends, employer, school, family members, places of employement of the family members, church, etc

Then send in the legal eagle to get back the money.

THIS, FUCKING THIS!!! DO IT!!!!
 
If I were in the situation you describe academically, I would bring this story to the attention of the school and emphasize that you want to be kept apart from this person at all costs when it comes to classes and other such things whenever possible.

this.

don't destroy her stuff, destroy her name and reputation with facts and pictures and an embedded youtube video.
 
I assume you'll be posting photographs here when you get back at the weekend?

One of the Holy Hag would be useful, too. I want to put a face to this madness.

Let's do it OP.
 
Just wondering why the police wouldnt file a report?

I mean she trashed some things if I understood it correctly, put cheetos on a laptop, stole some tableware...
What else would they need to do in America to file a report?

Cops didn't do anything for me until I caught my ex-roommate trying to cut the electric cord on my ac unit. She was cutting it with a pair of metal scissors while it was running. I should have just let her do it.

cheststrongwell said:
Yeah, this was a week after she had thrown human shit mixed with tofu and chicken all over the house. She was so hurt that I called the police. Said she was doing this to get my other roommate, not me. Roommates can be scary as shit.

What the fuck... forget the OP can we get the full story on this?
 
Post her full name on several websites/message boards with this story. Let's see if she'll get any job interviews from now on.
 
Skiesofwonder said:
As I talked about in the previous thread, one of our MANY quibbles was over the room temperature. She demanded that the AC temperature stay at 78 degrees and go no lower. Well her family had set the temperature at 99 degrees before leaving (on emergency heat). I couldn't help but laugh at that.

How long did you live with that being in effect?
 
At least you know where she got it from. She never had a chance; doomed to be a psycho from the start. It's actually sad.
 
Pawn her stuff. Surely you can at least get like 20 bucks for it?

And post all her details up on reddit or 4chan or something. Or sign her up to a swingers site.

Quoted already but fuck it requoting for emphasis.

This woman must be destroyed.
 
I'm worried that this clearly unhinged person is studying to be a nurse of all things

Get her reported to the college fuck her ever working with a vulnerable person
 
I'd say change the lock, and if you don't want her stuff then just put it out on the sidewalk for people to pick it up or the garbage truck to do so, unless you want to go through the hassle of trying to sell it. When someone leaves and fucks you up like that on a lease without being mature about it or doing their part then it's their fault as they had signed an agreement and they changed their mind, so they should be responsible for any fees you might encounter. By now though, knowing what she's done, I'd do anything to fuck her over bad. You guys did your best to make it easy on her and that's how she acts?

I used to live in a shitty neighborhood. Guy downstairs didn't pay his rent for a little over 3 months. Owner of the building went and changed the lock on the door. Guy came back in anyway by breaking one of the windows in the back. Owner got pissed and came back one evening when the guy wasn't there and put all of his shit on the sidewalk. People that passed in front thought it was free shit and took it home. By the end of the night there was nothing left. The police came to see us one day and said the guy downstairs had been robbed, and if we had seen anything. We said we didn't hear or see anything at all, and so did the other neighbors. Guy wasn't insured at all, and he lost all of his stuff. Lesson learned!
 
It amazes me that grown ass adults can act like this. Very childish.

Sorry to hear OP, I was following your older thread about this. I hope you and your roomie can get this BS sorted out.

If everything about this is legal in the U.S (which I do not know since I do not live there) I would definitely say that the OP should take this route. She acted like a complete child for not signing the contract, had her family going 'maffia' style on you and your roommate's apartment.

She is making life impossible for you. Now go make life impossible for her.
 
I would:

1. Photograph the damage, report it to the police (even if they say they can't do anything - logging the complaint shows YOU did something, in case you want to do anything about it later).

2. Take ALL her belongs out of the apartment, and leave them outside, let her know where they are, and that she's free to pick them up, you don't want anything of hers left in the apartment so she can kick up a stink about it.

3. Do not try to take revenge of any kind. The important thing is she's out, so don't prolong the relationship by thinking of ways to get revenge - like messing with her stuff. Just get it out of there and forget the pathetic scumbag ever existed.

You can see what sort of stock she comes from by her family being involved in the vandalism, so you just want to distance yourself as much as possible from animals like that.
 
Please keep us updated OP. Your original thread took a sudden twist from a standard getting rid of a roomate thread, to crazy insane roomates family trashed apartment thread.

I want to hear how this plays out.

Subscribing.
 
So was she technically not on the lease anymore or not when she came in and trashed the house?

If they were no longer on the lease you could call the police again and make sure they write a report saying that this was breaking and entering, damaging personal property, and damaging leased property. If they were still on the lease, damaging the walls like this constitutes a break in the lease agreement.
 
Update:

Called the apartment, they can't change the locks until October 5th (I'm looking into it right now). They said that she is coming back today and her dad (who is a cop) is escorting her back to the apartment.

Fuck that.... I'm really starting to dislike our apartment owners. She acted like the altercation never even happened.

Wait the ex-roomates Dad is a cop?

You might be fucked.
 
If you can't stop them from going back in, you need to be there when they are, and you need to talk to the dad.

I'm assuming he wasn't there for the first visit by them? I'm betting he doesn't know anything. Speak to him about it.

If they try anything, then call the police and, yeah, keep the peace.

Fucked how? He could trash her shit and her cop dad wouldn't be able to do anything. If the op has enough means to sue her then her cop dad might bet the one who gets fucked if he tries anything.

How far away are you? I'd fucking be there to make sure they don't fuck your shit up. If you are so far away that's not possible, I would call and demand that the landlord or property manager be there with them.

And I thought my wife's ex-roommate who liked to have cocaine parties that lasted until 10 am was bad.
 
OP, take every single item she left and toss into dumpster. DO IT!!! The washer goes to the junkyard. If you don't do this you are a sap.

Can your other roommate be present when they are let into the apartment?

As wonderful as it sounds to take some of these suggestions of revenge even the more "milder" ones such as posting pictures and information about her online, I would advise against it. Even if doing so would be legal, it doesn't mean that it wouldn't form the basis for a defamation (as an example) lawsuit. Even if you eventually prevailed and her lawsuit was tossed, it would still cost you time, if not money, to deal with the ramifications.

If you want to take any action, I would suggest bringing a case in Georgia's magistrate court to recover any damages that you or your roommate have incurred. But don't do the petty stuff. Even if it feels good today, there could be repercussions down the road.

This. Especially #2. You don't want her to have any reason to come inside. Plus sue her ass for damages.

If she doesn't live in the apartment anymore, is she even allowed to enter without your and your other roommate's permission? If not, I'd call the cops and get her and her dad charged with breaking and entering.
 
If her dad is a cop there will likely be no more damage done. I highly doubt he would be willing to risk his career to get petty revenge for his daughter.

And yeah it does suck, but smeared Cheetos and stuff thrown around is not exactly a police matter. If things were actually destroyed, you might take it to small claims court, but even then...

I agree with the shaming thing.
