Scam artists squatting in woman's home


From WPIX:

Corrine Butt decided to rent her downstairs apartment to tenants who would have some of their rent paid by the federally sponsored Section 8 program. She chose Paula Rivers and her family.

For the first year, Corrine says things were great. Then they stopped paying on time according to Corrine. Now she hasn’t gotten a cent from them in six months. And to top it off, Corrine says everyone in Rivers’ family is employed!

“I served notice in December,” Corrine told me. “And she started to bang on the floors at night when she comes home from work.”

And that’s far from the worst of it. Corrine says Paula slammed a door on her finger. They’re intentionally breaking things and then taking her to court to complain. Police have been called, complaints filed. It’s costing Corrine time and money — and maybe her health.

Contact your local mob boss. For justice you go to Don Corleone, unless you want to spend thousands more waiting it out in court. Vito's rates are cheaper in the long run.

What did you think was going to happen when you rent to section 8 people? You are just asking for your apartment to be destroyed.

That fiend has a nice car. How does someone in need of housing aid from the city can afford it?

Are the courts that stupid that they can't see the ruse that woman is using to avoid paying?

You try to be nice and this is the result. There's got to be a way to weed out the scum from taking advantage of section 8. It's bad enough it takes years to get a place to live after you apply.

And to think these good people come here from $hit hole country's run by dictators for the American dream of owning a home,education,healthcare and so on just to discover that NY has turned into a $hit hole city run by a Dictator.
The wheel is round sista.

When you take the "D" out of "DEBT"
All you left with is "EBT" and
"EBT" don't pay the Rent.

Yet another example of our politicians hollowing out communities making them ripe for speculative development as well as pandering to the lowest common denominator in a desperate grab at support that is vanishing among a good segment of society.

She should call her councilman and give us an account of inept running around the issue. They should be helping her and passing legislation to stop this.

All they care about is being proud to stand next to a transgender Pacific Islander or putting up stop signs to calm traffic around a donor's development site.

Bastards.

WPIX has featured non-paying white tenants in the past. I believe in Ozone Park.

No, I didn't miss your point. PIX11 defended a white landlord in Ozone Park when the same thing happened there.
