Denver police, if you're up there, come down with your hands up. What are you doing? I live here. Do you have a lease? No, I don't have a lease. So, how do you live here if you don't have a lease? Who in the hell are you? I'd really like to be able to like talk to him. Like I thought that I I've been paying rent since June. No, there's been no crime committed. Um Well, if you're not supposed to be there, then you're trespassing. Some people truly believe they can live wherever they want, insisting they belong in the houses they've invaded. But what happens when the police show up and reality hits? You're not leaving, you're going to get ARRESTED FOR TRESPASSING. HE'S IN THE LEASE. GET OUT OF MY HOUSE! GET ON THE [ __ ] GET ON THE GROUND. THESE WERE THE MOMENTS SERIAL SQUATTERS thought they could get away without consequences. We begin with a squatter who refused to accept reality, claiming ownership of a home she had no legal right to until officers were forced to intervene. They have been squatting in there for 4 months. Okay. No water the whole time. Oh, can we come in? No, you cannot come into the house. Open the door. Am I under arrest? Open the door. Open the door. Can I kick in? Yes. Am I under arrest? On December 1st, 2025, police responded to a complaint involving Tara, a woman who had been unlawfully occupying a property declared unfit for habitation. By the time officers arrived, the property owner was already frustrated with the situation. Yeah, I'm not taking this one. I'm just going to assist the people who are. They're on their way right now. So, what's going on? >> [clears throat] >> I own the house behind me. Yep. Um and this Tara Tara, yep. We know who she is. Um she gave and I didn't know who she was. She gave me I came to that door.

Tara had lived in the residence for 4 months without running water, and the owner said she had paid him only $480 once. By then, officers were already familiar with her and knew exactly who they were dealing with as they headed to confront her. Oh. Yes. Woah. Yes. Hi Dave. I can I come over there to your house, too? Yep. You know you're not supposed to be in this building, right? >> I talked uptown and they said give me 2 weeks cuz I I was getting the the plumbing fixed, and I'm getting ready to give him a cashier's check.

Cuz she's obstructing. Surprisingly, Tara answered the door, but she refused to cooperate. She even told officers they were not welcome in what she claimed was her home. Moments later, she locked the door forcing the officer to knock again. You don't have a key? No, you didn't have my key. You didn't have my my key. Open the door. Open the door. Open the door. Open the door. If you don't tell me your name, that's obstructing identification and you're going to be under arrest. Open the door. Open. Open. Resisting prohibited. Go. Can I kick it in? Yeah.

You put your light What's your What's your Get in the car. What is you Hey, what's your badge My badge number is 195. My name's Officer Padgett. >> Okay, that's your sign. It is. With no other choice, the female deputy forced the door open to reach Tara. She resisted arrest at all costs, but was eventually subdued and placed in handcuffs inside the patrol car. With the situation under control, officers turned their attention to searching the property. Brief. You all right? Yeah, sorry. Nose is running down my face. >> [snorts] >> Did you guys already clear this side? No, not over there. Marion police department, if you're inside make yourself known. Hey, but there's a door right there. Marion police. Nobody's out here, make yourself known. Does anyone know why I have her 10-95? I said it, but I'm not sure they didn't respond. Lucas, he's the property owner. No one's supposed to be in the home. You open the door, told them to come out. No one's supposed to be at home. I guess he subleased it to her. But he leased it to her without official lease. I would have figured that would make that null. The ghost Right. So, it just goes straight off the city chart. You give her a directive to exit the property. >> You said he is attached? No. No, she did. I told her to attach. Okay. Yeah. So, at that point, she's criminally trespassing. Yeah. Obstructing. You got resisting arrest. Yeah, you're good. Oh no, she's good. I just didn't know if that made this lease thing void. Obviously you can't lease Just go off the city charges. Yeah, we're all good.

So that's over a month ago. Yeah. In the end, Tara was charged with resisting arrest, obstructing identification, and criminal trespassing. Up next, a woman broke into a house and insisted she had every right to be there while acting like she was the one being wronged. This woman went inside of my house and what another guy came in here while I was gone? Hold on. Hold on. Hold on. Absolutely not. You're going to get [ __ ] TASED. YOU BETTER STOP. I DIDN'T DO ANYTHING. I'M NOT EVEN MOVING. ON AUGUST 11TH, 2024, police were called to investigate a break-in after a neighbor witnessed a woman forcing her way into a residence. Officers rushed to the scene to determine exactly what was going on. This woman went inside of my house and what another guy came in here while I was gone? He took my lawnmower. I can I can see cuz it's a snow blower I got in the basement. A green a snow blower, brand new. Where are my car keys? I don't know what you're talking about. Your your dude, your little friend or whatever y'all are doing. I don't know where he's at, but he ain't got no right coming inside my house. This is your house you live in?

And have anybody invade my home and take anything. We ain't talking about no car. We're talking about you going in my house and my neighbor witnessed you going in there. I didn't do anything. Okay, hold on. Hold on. Cuz now we have to figure out what's going on. Cuz you came out my back window then cuz I just went back there and looked. So she stayed here last night. When did she leave? That was this morning. She gave me and my her little boyfriend or my buddy a ride to the store. Him and her arguing or whatever. You got no right going inside of my home. And that's why I asked you where my car was. You don't got no right See my door unlocked? This door This door was locked a second ago.

Well, you better tell [music] whoever did. That's breaking and entering and I'm pressing charges. The homeowner explained that he had allowed her to spend the night, but she was supposed to leave the next morning. Hours later, however, a neighbor spotted her trying to climb through the kitchen window. Despite being confronted, the woman seemed more worried about her car than about the break-in itself. >> Here's the front door key. >> So, where's my car? I can show you the other keys to that side door. That door was just locked when he stood there and watched me check that door and I checked the back window back there. Okay. Well, if you don't live here and you had no right to be in this house, that is burglary. Ain't nobody breaking in here. Where my car at? Well, you got to talk to whoever your dude is or whatever y'all going through, but my neighbor seen you come in my house. That's not right. Okay. He let you stay overnight and then you left this morning.

Get on your stomach. >> You're hurting me. You are under arrest for burglary. You are under arrest. Sit here. OH MY NO, YOU DON'T. YOU ARE UNDER ARREST for burglary. We already told you that when you decided to run. The squatter decided to run from the police, forcing officers to deploy a taser to stop her. Even while being arrested, she kept shouting for someone to call the police, ignoring the fact that officers were already there. She insisted the homeowner had stolen her car and claimed she had every right to be inside the house. Officers struggled to get her to comply. You don't have a right to sit ANYWHERE ANYMORE. GET ON YOUR STOMACH. PUT YOUR HANDS UP. NOW. NO. >> [screaming] >> NOW YOU'RE GOING TO JAIL. >> [screaming] >> STOP. YOU'LL GET ONE. >> I NEED AN AMBULANCE. LIE FLAT DOWN NOW. >> I NEED AN AMBULANCE.

You will get one, but you need to cooperate first. >> CALL THE COPS. WE ARE THE COPS. GIVE ME YOUR ARM. GIVE ME your arm. If you bite me, I'm going to punch you. I need an ambulance. Is it? You already bit me once. You bite me, I'm going to punch you. I didn't BITE YOU. STOP. >> [screaming] >> PUT YOUR HANDS BEHIND YOUR BACK. STOP. >> [screaming] >> YOU GOT TO STOP. NOW. STOP. NOW. Put your hands behind your back now. All right. You cooperate and we can sit you up or whatever is most comfortable so you can get off of the ground. But you need to cooperate with us. We already told you that you broke into somebody's house and you decided to run away from us and fight with us and pull away from us. Why you're where you're at now. Miss, I have to ask, do you have any kind of blood diseases? Do you have like HIV, AIDS, anything that's carried by the blood? Okay, I've asked you so if you have it, you're going to be charged. What's your name? Just so you know, you are under arrest. You have been since we told you that you were under arrest. You have to give us that information. If you don't, that's another charge. Okay? I don't want to continue to tack on charges. But you need to at least cooperate a little bit. Because right now you're facing three. So, please help us help you and at least make the rest of this go a little smoother. [music] During the altercation, the suspect scratched her elbow, leaving blood on the officers as they tried to restrain her. This raised concerns about possible blood-borne diseases, but even when asked directly, she refused to cooperate. With the situation under control, the policewoman turned her attention back to the break-in itself. >> How do you know this gentleman? Uh we went to the store this morning and they stole my car. Okay. We'll we'll figure out your car. So, I came back over here. Okay. How do you know him? Why were you staying here last night? Friends. How long have you guys been friends for? A minute. Okay. So, he let you stay here last night. Yeah. You guys left this morning, went to the store. Yeah, and then they pulled off with my car, so I came back over here. Okay. Him and the other gentleman that's not here anymore? Yeah. Okay, who's the other guy? I don't What's that? So, they left in your car. Yeah. You came back here. The second guy came back here with you. So, you don't know where your car was. Where's the last time you saw your car? Um we had pulled up on the corner. Which store? >> Um I don't know what Okay. The the gas station over there? Yeah. >> Or the little corner store? The gas station. The gas station. Okay. So, that's the last place your car was. Yeah, we pulled up with it. Okay, and left you at the gas station, so you walked over here. Yeah. Okay, it's not possible that the other dude parked your car somewhere and that's where he's off to right now. Mhm. And then y'all going to take me down and they going to have all my stuff. Well, we're going to figure out your because we can handle more than one thing at a time. Here's the problem though. We need you to cooperate with us for the initial investigation. We need you to cooperate with the initial investigation and said you took off running. We can't handle your stuff unless we handle the initial stuff. So we're we're going to figure it all out. We just need you to cooperate with the initial stuff which is you going into this house without his permission. Which is why we're at where we're at right now. Do you understand that? Okay. Is it the car in your name or is it somebody else's car that you borrowed? Okay. Do they know that you had the car? What kind of car was it? It's green. Green? Okay, do you know what like is it a car or is it a truck or is it a SUV? It's not a good car. Car?

Light green? Okay. Does it have any kind of stickers, any kind of damage on the car? Is it older or newer? Newer. In the end, the woman was charged with attempted burglary, resisting arrest, and assaulting an officer. According to the case report, officers later located the vehicle she had claimed was stolen and returned it to its rightful owner. Next, what started as a simple favor quickly turned into a nightmare when a woman was trusted with [music] a key, but instead of returning it, she acted as if the house belonged to her. You're here illegally, okay? You are here illegally. You're refusing to give me the key, you're going to go to jail. Go get it. Ma'am, you're not free to leave. Am I leaving? >> You're not free Am I leaving? Get out of the car. On August 8th, 2025, officers were dispatched to a residence after the homeowner reported a troubling situation. While she had entrusted a woman named Liberty with a house key during her vacation, Liberty used it to move in without permission and began living there as if the property were her own. Hi, it's police department. Hey, can you hear me? Uh yeah, I'm here on the camera. This is the owner. Okay. Uh is there a white car there? Uh white Volkswagen, yes. No one's answering the door. Yeah, that's their car, though. Okay. Hey, can you call me and give me a little info about what's going on here? Okay. Hey, is this Ms. Nelson? Yes. Hey, this is Officer Johnson. Oh, Mr. Johnson. Uh yeah, that that person who's uh in there is um not supposed to be there. She's trespassing. So, well, give me some backstory on what's what's the what's the issue? How why is she here and who is she and I understand she's a friend or something, but Yeah. Yeah, so she was supposed to been gave back my key. So, she used to live here? No, she doesn't live there at all. I left on Monday and I left my key with her so she could return it. Okay. But she never returned it. So, she doesn't live here. Why is she here now? That that's what I'm saying. That's why I'm calling for trespassing. The homeowner, Ms. Nelson, explained that she had given Liberty the keys only so they could be passed along to her mother. But soon, [music] she noticed Liberty coming and going from the house as if she lived there. The officer continued questioning [music] Ms. Nelson to piece together exactly what had happened. So, the only person here is supposed to be Liberty. Or the only person here is Liberty. Yeah. And she's not supposed to be staying here. She's just supposed to return your key? Right. Right. Okay. >> been away I've been away I've been looking at my camera and she's been in and out and and no that can't happen. Okay. So, you just want the key back and you want her gone. Yeah. Get She doesn't have any right to be in here. She doesn't have any rights here. No. Not at all. And she's never lived here she doesn't have any property here or anything like that. No. All right. Let me see if I can get her to answer the door. I've knocked and nobody's answering so. Yes, she's she's texting me now so I don't know why why she's not coming. Tell her to come outside and talk to me. Liberty, it's the police department. Come out here and talk to me. Hey, she's not answering our phone. Um Where where are you at? Is there any way you can come here and we can open this door or Yeah, the the extra key is um is actually in Perry. I have my mother on the way over there though. Okay. She have a spare key by chance? No. Yeah, so I'm going to try to call Libby right now. Yeah, just I mean tell her if she's inside to come out. She's not in trouble we just got to get the key and get her gone. Yeah. All right. Let me know. All right. All right. Oh, you want yours back? You're Liberty we know. We've been knocking. So, Ms. Nelson called she says you don't have uh rights to this property and you may come in here. All weekend. So, she wants her key and she wants you trespassed. You have the key? This where it's in the house. It's in the house? >> Right. Well, we need to go get it. What you pointing that way for? It's over there. Come on. Take me over there. I don't got to get nothing. Close my door, sir. I have the right to Hold on. Hold on. Hold on. Ma'am, you don't understand. You're not getting control here, okay? You're here illegally, okay? You are here illegally. Liberty eventually stepped out of the house and headed straight to her car, seemingly intent on leaving. When officers asked her to hand over the house key, she defiantly told them to go get it themselves. The police made it clear that if she continued to complicate the situation, the consequences would only get worse. If you give me the key It's over there. Identify yourself, you're free to leave. You're refusing to give me the key, you're going to go to jail. It's over there. Go get it. It's over there. You was just over there. I didn't say I was going anywhere, did I? Do I? Do not make this worse than it has to be. Do you understand? No, the key is over there. Then go get it. I'm just telling y'all the key is over there. I'm not And we're just asking you to go get it. Okay, and I'm not going to get it. It's over there. >> So, you're refusing to go get it. I'm not going to get it. Whatever you trying to charge me with. It's absolutely right. It's that simple. Hello. Hey, we're here with her. She's playing hard headed. Are you What are you wanting to do? She's saying the key is somewhere in the house, but I mean She don't know. She need to find the key. You're not here to give us authority to go in the house and we can't verify anything, so are you the Are you the owner of this house? She's a renter or what? >> Yeah, I am. I inherited the house. You inherited the house? No, she's not going to jail. Did you tell us she's not going to jail? Well, I mean, if she don't give the key up and you want her to go to jail, she's going to go to jail. Unless you think she left it in the house and Just give. Yeah, she's pointing over there somewhere and I told her to go get it and she's refusing, so you tell me what you want me to do. Well, actually refusing to give the key. I have no idea. I just met her. I I don't know. She just said she gave y'all the key. She isn't giving us anything. I'm staying here with her watching the other officer. She's not giving us the key. Well, what do you want us to do? It's on the chair by the door. She said it's on the chair by the door. >> Okay. Are you good with that? I I I I need a verification that it's there. Well, we're asking her to go get it and she's refusing, so if it's not there, what do you want us to do? >> Take me to jail. Get that white girl. Ma'am, you're not free to leave. Am I leaving? >> You're not free Am I leaving? Put your car in park, ma'am. Am I leaving? >> Don't touch me. Don't you touch me.

Put your car in park. Put your car in park. There's an orange key here. Yeah. Yeah, that's it. Okay. Are you satisfied? The officer eventually recovered the house key, but by then Liberty was already in serious trouble. She had tried to drive away and resisted the officer's commands, leaving no choice but to arrest her. All that remained was to confirm whether Ms. Nelson wanted to press charges. Do you want her trespassed from here? Uh that'll that'll be uh I'll say what what I do is tell her if she comes back here she could go to jail and I will write up a report. Yeah. Yeah, do that and then uh the crisis is my mother. She's on the way right now to come and get the key. Okay. Sounds good. Hey, she's under arrest now, man. Put your car in park now.

Because she was leaving to go out of town. Never give her permission. She was only given this to give back to mom. And then she started using this all weekend, coming and going. So owner's out of town, sees it on the camera, calls us, says, "Hey, she's in there. I want her gone." Like, she doesn't live there. She doesn't own any property there. The house is beat to crap. I don't think anybody actually lives in there. You been inside? I didn't go in and look around, but the windows are busted here. They're boarded up down there on that side. The back windows are all boarded up. Um she said so if she's willing to give up the key then just trespass her. Uh if she's not then yeah we'll press charges. And that's when you like she hit me with the car so She ready for all this? Liberty resisted arrest until the very end forcing two officers to drag her out of the car before speaking with the homeowner's mother. The officer briefly [music] informed Liberty about the status of her vehicle. Hey your vehicle's being towed. We should let you know before you get to the jail who the tow company is. Why are you taking me to jail? That's right. I'm going to give you the key right your daughter's on the phone. I'm going to give her the rundown on what just happened so >> Okay.

Y'all just don't give a Don't be trying to charge me with nothing else cuz it say on your camera. I'm going to make sure I get this damn car number two that you only charge me with this the officer. In the end, Liberty was charged with three counts of resisting an officer without violence. If convicted on all charges with penalties stacked, she could face up to three years in jail and fines totaling up to $3,000. Moving to the next case, a man used legal loopholes to stay in a home he couldn't afford, pushing his roommates to the edge and turning the situation violent. >> So, are you leaving? Yeah, I'm leaving. You were going to do Yeah, I just took my bag out. So, I'm saying I have renter's rights as well, that he violated. I need to On July 1st, 2025, officers were dispatched to a residence after a fight erupted among several roommates. David had been living in the basement for months, severely behind on rent, and refused to leave. With no money to initiate a formal eviction, the other roommates were left with constant arguments as their only option. Yes. Where's David? Uh he's he's in the house. He's in the house? Okay. Yeah. What's going on with Adam? Hey David. David. Yes. What's going on with the officers Cruz? You want to come on up? We can talk. >> Yeah, I'm coming. All right. So first and foremost, I talked to your wife. She She's a joke. Yeah, she's so concerned about me, about my safety, but then look at she's on straight bull. Like what's the She didn't She didn't care about my safety. She just wanted to know where I was at. Okay. I just told her, "Hey man, the [ __ ] you know, you want your time right now and you'll give her a call whenever she wants to." So we wanted We didn't want to talk at that time. I told her. So is what she called you right away after? >> She's not Yeah, she hasn't stopped talking to me since. Okay. Talking to I told her I says, "Hey, he's okay. I talked to him. He just wants some time alone. Just leave him alone. He'll call you whenever he's ready." She won't let me talk to her. She's just dish. She's literally She's just non-stop. This was not the first incident, so officers already knew what to expect. One officer began by speaking with David about his wife's concern for his safety before turning to the conflict between him and Adam. >> [music] >> All right, so what's up with you and Adam here? What's I don't know. You tell me. He's outside. I don't know. You guys are cool? I'm here. You guys arguing or something? >> We're arguing because like he He just He just He's He's handling things the wrong way as far as the living situation. Like I told him you got to evict The way he's acting, he's got to evict. You guys were cool for a while. >> We We've been cool, but every time his girl comes around or something, he changes up. He's always changing up. >> His girl or your girl? His girl. Okay. He's just like I don't know like I literally was That's why I left, to be honest with you, is because overwhelming from my wife and him. >> And him. So that's why I left. That's why I left. And then my phone was off so like I knew he would contact me. Yeah, exactly. No one was bothering you cuz your phone was off. Literally like had like 50 missed calls. Okay. I just told me I'm like I Every single time this is about to be like where I'm trying to figure out what to do, he wants to be on [ __ ] Okay. So like like in like petty petty petty about everything. The bill, like not paying the water bill, not paying the electric bill, like just always ran [ __ ] like intentional. So now you know what? That's what you want to do, that's fine. I got my stuff. Most of my stuff is in storage already. I got my bed downstairs, my backpack full of clothes and my dog. That's it. So he knows he knows what he has to do. Mhm. Like I know the law too. I know the law. He already been told that already. Yeah, he knows he knows what he has to do. Yeah, exactly. I'll just reiterate it. I'm just trying to stay away from him as much as possible. I'm never I've never been in his face. I don't talk to him very much. I'm I got my basement. I stay away from him. All right. So you leaving? Yeah, I'm leaving. I'm just saying you you going to leave or Yeah, I just took my dog out and so I'm leaving. Okay. I'm going to let him know the same thing. I'm going to let him know I've issued you a verbal Yeah, verbal right to come back. Um and if he does want you out, I will see you in the statutory eviction. He does. He has to. Right. Right. At this point, the way he's been going about things, he has to he has to go through legal process. Okay. Cuz I don't he understands that there's when you go with the eviction thing, it's not just automatically him evicting me cuz it's like I have renter's rights as well that he violated anyway. So it goes both ways. I know we have to go to court. I know how it works. >> Yeah, you have to go to court or something like that. So He is to leave him by the kitchen. We I haven't hit Since I moved here, there's not even You You can't even rent You mean he's supposed to rent a place with a stove anyway. Like I know how the law works in here. My family owns buildings. Mhm. Like there hasn't been a stove since I moved here. David insisted that Adam had started the fight, claiming that Adam constantly picked on him over unpaid bills. David reminded the officers that only a formal eviction order could remove him from the house. With tensions cooling, the officers prepared to leave. All right, Dave. All right, yeah. I'm sorry, Dave. Not a problem, man. I don't know what you got. I mean, I appreciate you guys caring about me like I like I said, as soon as the first You're the first person I called. As soon as I got my phone back out, I saw your message, I called you right away. Because all those other people like half of those people don't even really like they all of a sudden everyone's so concerned. I said, "Well, I ain't being I said my wife she is playing the role like she's so concerned about my safety. She didn't She just wanted to know where I was at. She knew I'm okay. She knows the kind of person I am. I I'm not going to be in there and put myself in a position where like I'm harmful to someone and put myself We have three boys in there. Like I'm not going to put She knows who I am. Like I'm not going to put myself in a position where she has to worry about my safety. Like she knows it. They all know that, too. So, that's why I was like, "Are you serious?" Yeah, I know she's freaking out, man. She's freaking out. >> because of those Yeah, she went to the police department yesterday and then again this morning. Yeah, well, maybe if she stopped being so mean to me that this whole So, she really It's either she really loves you or she's a good bully. One or the two. Or both. >> Or both. So, Dave was being but he said he just came by checking your property before leaving out. But as we talked before, you know, And what you just said was the last thing he said to you, that he's going to force you to evict him. He's not just going to leave on his own. I know. He's still not 5 grand and laying around for a lawyer. >> I don't know how you guys are It's expensive, man. That's up somehow, someway you guys can try to get together or work it out. We're going to have to try. He's getting his prison [ __ ] in his own house is what's going on. Okay. Well, we already took care of everything now. And he knows to give me a call if anything else erupts. You guys look at the dog. He's He's been crating that dog for 23 hours a day. He's not violent. Okay. What he's saying about my dog is not violent at all. No, no, no, no, me for what the f That piece of s What the Cut it out. Cut it out. Step back right now. Well, we got it in hand. Yeah, you know where I live. Come get me. What did I DO TO YOU? DUDE, STOP talking to him. Stop talking to him. Stop engaging with him. I didn't even know he was going to do that. Nobody hit you. Everything seemed settled between David and Adam until the third roommate, Richard, suddenly appeared already furious about the situation. Richard assaulted David right in front of the officers, forcing them to intervene in this new confrontation. Need an ambulance? Yeah, I know, I know, but I'm I'm person in charge. We got that in hand. Uh, you already gave Cruz your info? Yeah, Cruz, this guy kicked me for I don't know. Where did he get you? He was kicking me in my elbow and my arm. All right, let me take a photo. Cruz, this is Cruz. All right, man. Listen, he's He's a mutual friend of ours. Yeah, you know where I live. Yeah, you know where I live. Come get me.

So, I'm going Can you loosen that second I'm like, no. Yeah, you know what? It's cuz they're I know I I deserve my foot. In the end, Richard was arrested and charged with battery. David left temporarily to calm down, but later returned, continuing to live in the house until the other roommates managed to raise enough money to begin formal eviction proceedings. Up next, a group of squatters was living in a home they didn't own, insisting they had every right to be there. Calm down. Who else is out there with you? I don't know. I'm not sure. All right. How you doing? Good. Can you step Hands up. Yeah. Yeah. Come out. What's going on? What? What the Turn around. Put your hands on top of your head. I just found out I was pregnant and I still have staples in me. I can't go to jail. I'll miss my treatment. I cannot afford to miss court again. I do not want any more On February 10th, 2025, in Ohio, police were called after a property manager discovered people living illegally inside a vacant house. So, what's going on with the house? I just represent the property manager. The The property's in foreclosure. Okay. Um so, I just came out to check on it. I was here last week and nobody was here. Okay. So, I don't I don't know when they decided to move themselves in between last week and I think it's either Monday or Tuesday and now. Uh so, the four of them scattered that way through that back alley. There's There's a couple of them living in the garage, but there's still somebody in the house cuz when I yelled in the house, somebody answered, so I just didn't go in beyond that. Okay. Uh I don't want to take the risk of going Yeah, no, you're fine. Which door was open? They kicked the front door open. They can't lock it. Okay. However, no one was ready for what the Come down now. Hands up. Come down. Who else is up there with you? I don't know. I'm not sure. I was just going to go to sleep. Come down. Hands behind your back. Hands behind your back. Who's Who's up there with you? There's a man in my room right now. Come down now. Hands up before you get in more trouble. Hands up. On top of your head. Come down here. Sorry. Is there anybody else up Drop your phone. Come down now. Hands up. Stop. Right there. What are you doing here? We were living here. Do you have a lease? No, I'm not on the lease. So, how do you live here if you don't have a lease? We've been renting upstairs back. Why is the door kicked in? I don't know. Palms. Palms. Palms. Palms. Who else is here? There's no one supposed to be here. It doesn't matter. I have the landlord outside. We're past that. Why didn't anybody ever come say anything? How long have you guys been staying here? A month. I don't know about After detaining the three suspects, the officers still couldn't shake the feeling that something was off. Their instincts told them to recheck once more, and that decision would change everything. All right, anything with this closed door yet? Uh, you want to step back, we'll close this so we can open this one. Uh, step this way, maybe. Can I search that? What's that? All right. He's coming out. I got one coming out here. Hello. Hi. >> Hi. How you doing? Good. Can you step back a little? >> Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Come out. What's going on? What? What's the problem? >> Turn around. Put your hands on top of your head. Why didn't you answer when we were calling? I just woke up. Clearly you could hear me shouting. >> Is he 13? Everyone's a 13 in this house. We're going to get you downstairs, okay? What's going on? You don't live here. Yes, I do. This house is vacant. I've lived here since June. No one's supposed to be here. >> Why am I being arrested? No one's supposed to Clearly, yes. Okay, well, I I don't understand why. Hey, Brooke. Hey, Brooke. Who'd you pay rent to? Cuz you have a lease? With this this friend of mine, Sarah. Yeah, Sarah doesn't own the house. Uh-huh. She doesn't own the house. So, right now you guys are trespassing. Okay. Can I put some shoes on? We'll get some shoes. We're going to get you downstairs. >> are in here. Yeah, okay. I'm just trying to be I'm going to grab your phone. My stuff's in here. Do me a favor, just bring your luggage first. Those are your shoes there, right at the end of the bed? Yes, sir. All right, I'll grab them for you if that's cool. Just as they were about to escort the fourth suspect downstairs, something unexpected caught their eye, leaving them frozen in disbelief. Hi, come on out. All right, can I just put my shoes on? Yeah, in a second. Yeah, but he needs to go in there in case there's another person in there. That's fine. There is. All right. Go ahead put your hands behind your back for me. So, we got a light or 13. Which shoes do you Which shoes do you want? Sir, walk to the stairs. Which shoes do you The black pair, we'll grab them. Is there anybody else in here? Um like in the room? In the house. No, um I don't Do you have any weapons or anything on you? No. Clear over here. Once the house was finally cleared, officers began transporting the suspects for processing, but then one officer uncovered a chilling detail about one of them. It says you do have warrants. Are you aware of that? No, no. I have court on the 18th. Oh, please. Please call them and see if they want me, please, because I I just It's because of the not reporting and I don't live out here anymore. I just got out of here today. Oh my goodness, please. Dude, I still have 10 days before court. >> [laughter] >> I can't go to jail again. I literally I just found out I was pregnant and I still have syphilis. I can't go to jail. I'll miss my treatment. >> [gasps and laughter] >> Jesus Christ, how many cars is this showed up here? Who owns the house? I'd really like to be able to like talk to them. Like I thought that I I've been paying rent since June. All right. All right. This is crazy. Who have you been living with? Uh well, my girlfriend. Who's your girlfriend? The one that was just arrested? >> No, that's just a friend of mine. Okay. My girlfriend is in Florida right now and she's paying. So, you pay rent here? Yeah. When was the last time you paid rent? Uh just my uh I'm behind a month, but yeah, last month. Last month, so today's February, so you're talking January you paid January? >> I was paid up Do you have any way to prove that? No, no. No. Why? Because I pay cash. Who did you pay it to? To Sarah, Sarah Black. Sarah Black, do you have Sarah's phone number? Let me see. Uh yeah, on my phone. Okay, your phone's upstairs in your room? Yeah. You lived here since then? Yeah. Who pays the utilities? I thought she was. How much do you pay a month? I pay $300 a month. $300? You rent just that room? >> Just one room. I need to know who owns the home. Um Why you're in it. Well And if a crime has actually been committed. No, there's been no crime committed. Um Well, if you're not supposed to be there, then you're trespassing. Correct. You're You're absolutely correct. I I was unaware that I was trespassing because of the person that allowed us to start staying here in the first place. Okay. Her name is um Sarah Stack. And uh she was living here and she ended up having to go to Power Street and some other stuff and um you know, I just I've been here and taking care of the house like trying to keep it together. The sub pump exploded in the basement, so I was trying to do some work with that. Um me and a friend of mine were looking into buying the land lot if we could uh potentially talk to the owner and see if he was willing to sell or what, but really I was really on my way back out to Cleveland because I have to like move home with my mother. She's having a really hard time right now providing for my little sister. I do have a uh minor like court thing going on out here though that I have court on the 18th and um I just so happen to be out here a little earlier than the 18th so that I make sure that I'm actually in court because I cannot afford to miss court again. I do not want any more warrants. I do not want to spend any time in the county. Um I don't really know much about the logistics of anything else in the house other than I was staying here under Sarah Stack. She's not here anymore and I wasn't planning on being here anymore either. That's why we have the house like getting ready to get get up out of there today. I don't know if you noticed but it's like pretty bare on the inside. The suspects tried everything. Excuses, denial, even fake tears. But their web of lies was crumbling fast and nothing could save them from what was coming next. Tell me about the house here. What's going on with it? I have no idea. We moved in two months No one's ever been here so now we got to get out. It's been in foreclosure for over a year. We paid the internet and electric bill. What about heat? Well, the heat's off right now because of the electric The electric bill, if I call Ohio Edison and ask them about this house, are they going to say it's supposed to be in a shut off mode? No, they're Well, the tag's been removed so it's been the box has been tampered with. Yeah, they're going to say it's supposed to be in Anthony McMillan's name but we just That's odd because then there'd be a gray tag on the box. I don't know. It looks like it's been tampered with. They did the thing online Well, the thing is the receipt where they come out and turn service on and stuff. What do you guys want done? Do you want charges pressed? Whatever charges you guys can press against them. Breaking and entering whatever. >> Okay. I I mean to me I'd say cut them loose but the reality of it is if you do that they'll be back in here in three hours and I'm going to have to call you back tomorrow and have the same conversation. Yeah. But that's I would say if they were going to be honest and go you can let them let them go away. But I know you know, if you let them go in 3 hours, we're going to have the same conversation. Okay. And you said that the door was kicked in. When did the door get kicked in? >> Listen, I was The door was fine when I got here. When did you get here? Yesterday. Literally last night. And the door was fine when I got here. >> did you get here? We're separated. I'm pregnant, like I said, so I'm like extremely anxious all the time. >> Yeah, I got you. Okay, so 4:00 yesterday you come, the door's fine. Yes, yeah. Okay, and now the door's kicked in. >> I think Well, okay, so what it is is the door was kicked in like a while ago, back when the police came in the first place. Like uh when I got arrested here, I believe they kicked the door in. But you just said the door was fine when you got >> No, no, yeah. I'm I'm trying to explain that to you. I fixed the door when I very first came back from jail to get my initial like belongings that were still here after I got arrested here. I fixed the door. I did put like four new nails in it and try to like get it together like on the wall, but I'm not, you know what I mean? I didn't have like any major materials, so I just like literally threw some nails in there to keep the frame up on the one side. >> Okay, so the last time you were here >> a little wonky. It wasn't exactly Yes, it wasn't exactly like perfect. >> you say that that was? When I I just I just went to jail like um the 13th, I I think, of last month. January? Yeah. It wasn't long before one officer returned with a crucial piece of information and evidence so solid that it would shatter their elaborate lies within seconds. I just talked to the energy company, and they're This power's been off for a year. It's not supposed to be on. There's no active accounts. So, between you guys having the door kicked in, the the power's not supposed to be on, no active heat, I'm going to say you guys don't live here. No one is supposed to be here. You guys are all being charged with criminal trespassing going to county. All your stuff's getting tossed out. You have no no right to be in the property. Everyone's getting arrested. So, that that's what we're doing. I'm really like I can't I can't go back to county. I can't go back to county. I did not know thought they were trespassing. Like I I live in Cleveland. I don't need to be here. I can leave right now. But you were here. But I didn't know I was trespassing. I had an agreement with Sarah Stack. She's staying in that apartment building right there, the red brick building next to the Thomas Todd W. Young building. You know that that's what court is for. No, I But how am I supposed to know when she said she was the landlord here? Like, I wasn't I'm not even living here anymore. I just came back to help clean. Oh, please let me talk to the property manager. I can't go to jail, please. Sir, listen. Please listen. I have syphilis. I'm pregnant. I have court on February 18th with Judge Allison Borough. I do not need any more trouble. I was not trying to be here any longer than today. I wasn't even staying here tonight. >> Listen to me. Relax. I I can't go to jail. Can I [laughter] talk Can I talk for 2 seconds? All of this that you're telling me is what court is for, okay? As We're We got a call that there are several people in this house that are trespassing, not supposed to be here. The property manager is the one who called us, okay? They Listen to me. They want to press charges for criminal trespassing. So, that's what we're doing. That's what we have Listen, that's what we have to do. If you had some separate arrangements, you had agreements with other people, that's what court is for. You are going to see a judge in less than 24 hours. I know, but they're going to hold me in jail because I have court on the 18th. Like, it's not just a ticket. Why would they hold you? Because why wouldn't they hold me? In the end, all occupants were arrested and charged with criminal trespassing. Next, what should have been a straightforward eviction turned into a standoff as a family refused to accept that they no longer had the right to stay. NO, I'M NOT. SHOW ME THE PAPERWORK WHERE I'M THE EVICTED. GET OUT OF MY HOUSE NOW! THAT'S NOT HAPPENING. GET OUT OF MY HOUSE! OKAY, YOU'RE UNDER ARREST. NO, I'M [screaming] NOT. I DIDN'T DO NOTHING. LISTEN TO ME.

A couple and their child had been squatting in the residence for over a year, but what should have been a simple removal soon spiraled into chaos. Something to go. I know. Don't come in here with your cocky attitude. >> telling you I just told them that. I just told >> Get your stuff. Whoa, whoa, buddy. No, no, no, no, no. You're not leaving.

Come on, man. >> stand up. >> Ah, hold on, man. Hold on, man. Come on, man. Dude, my While some officers work to keep the father under control, others turned to the mother. But instead of helping, her behavior only made a bad situation worse. Get him out of here. I'm not in I'm Jason tried to explain it to you. You're not one of the witnesses.

Well, he said she was like She said that Jewel was good. I think Jewel was like probably She had a conversation with you? Yes, ma'am. How's he been? For what? Once things finally calmed down, the officers sent the mother inside to gather her belongings and care for the child.
