that makes me sad
Luxury. Best we could manage was a paper bag in a septic tank.
The director of a local homeless assistance group is quoted as saying:
“Obviously, we don’t want people resorting to illegal activity to find housing."
IANAL but here’s a funny twist of the law. It’s not generally illegal, per se, for the woman have done this until she was caught and legal action was taken and was successful. The mere act of it was not in itself illegal. Heck, in California you have to give squatters 3 days notice (the area where she stayed could be seen as “vacant”).
Anyway, food for thought. Lest, you know, one require housing.
Trespassing is illegal, even if the law sometimes gives even law-breaking squatters extra rights in evictions.
Wasn’t “trespassing” what cops charged students with for sitting on their own campus?
Yes, trespassing is illegal. But you haven’t trespassed until it’s established that you have trespassed. Legally.
You obviously aren’t legally guilty of it until you’ve been charged and convicted, but that doesn’t mean you haven’t actually done it in the meantime.
Who TF snitched on Jane Doe?!
