The laws in Nampa, Idaho, appear to be insane.

Stories like this amaze me. Honestly, I think I would hire a few “friends” and just have them remove her...let the chips fall where they may. It should be HER taking action to get back in - see how that works out.

America has gone insane.

This is third world country stuff.

The rule of law is supposed to protect people from this sort of predator.

This is how a system falls in to barbarism. Next thing you know, couples will be paying local thugs protection money to take care of problems such as this.

They should rely on the long recognized common law remedy of “self help.” Go into your own house and physically through the squatters out on their behinds. Get ear plugs for the whining and ignore it.

That's been going on for a long time. You don't know too many landlords do you?

I would print a lease off the internet.
Then I would move into the judge’s house.

Actually, I think this wouldn't happen in the third world. They would just handle business, and shut up about it.

Needless to say - she would scare the daylights out of me if I went back to my house with her there - what choice would I have - lights out for her.

Too late here...you call the cops AFTER the event.

There was a reader comment on one of the sites where this story appeared, and if what he said was true then he's a genius. He was dealing with a situation where he wanted to evict someone who was 3-4 months behind on the rent, but he knew that a formal eviction process would cost more than he was willing to pay. So he did the following:

1. Notified the tenant that he was going to enter the property on a certain date and time to fix the boiler (which actually did need fixing). She was away when he entered so ...

2. He fixed the boiler, but before he left the house he removed the front door from its hinges -- leaving the interior of the home exposed to the elements.

3. Made an anonymous phone call to the town's health officer, reporting the open/exposed home as if he was a neighbor who just happened to see it.

4. The health officer came to the property, boarded up the door, posted an "uninhabitable dwelling" notice on the plywood board, and ran yellow tape all over the outside of the house.

5. A couple of months later, the owner (who never heard from the tenant in all this time) simply had the door fixed, tossed all the contents of the home out in the garbage, and paid a small fine to get the certificate of occupancy restored.

LMAO.

Helped a neighbor go through this. She was 87 and wanted to move into a nursing home but her son’s former girlfriend, who was not invited to live in the house, claimed residence. It took about 6 weeks to get her evicted. These laws are criminal.

Lol, this kind of stuff goes on all the time. It took me a year and one half to evict a “Dr.” back in 1972. He simply hired a lawyer and made all sorts of accusations and I got stuck in “the system”.

When we finally prevailed and got access the good Dr. had caused major damage to a brand new house. The item I will always remember though is cat s___ under all the beds!

Folks, the legal system and government is screwing over honest Americans. Sooner or later somebody is going to snap, and it won't be pretty.

You're going to see a lot of justice done the Old West way.

Can’t they just wait for her to leave then board all of the doors and windows? Surely she can’t be there 24/7

At the very least the woman in the house owes the real owners of the house rent and back rent.

The person who rented her the house needs to go to jail.
He should be easy to find if she is actually paying rent
