That Stuff Might Work In France, But It Don't Work In Texas.

Their apt is only a mile and a half from my house. I didn't see it but was told by neighbor the entire apt complex was swarming with feds. There were several confrontations and possibly arrests. The feds evacuated several apts and wouldn't let anybody enter. When the apt dwellers asked why they were not given any explanation just told to leave area and not even told when they could return.

If your apartment is considered your home, I would think that the Constitution would require the feds to have court orders to prevent innocents from going to their apartments????

Still times being what they are, they may well have made a public safisty case and considering what may be in that complex they well be right . But some explanation should have been given

I couldn't agree more Karl. Don't know if it is true or not. One nearby apt dweller claimed his apt was searched without his knowledge or permission.

I had to deal a few times with fed LEO's, most think they are near god-like and above the law.

 

EDIT: Pretty much the word on the street. Several apts were searched accompanied by the apt's mgmt. Supposedly the rental agreement gives the mgmt. the right to enter without prior knowledge or permission in the case of an emergency situation like fire, gas leak, public enemy etc. Mgmt is claiming the possibility of explosives in the perp's apt gave them the right to search adjacent rooms.

 

Was rather chicken-sh!t of both fed and Phx cops not giving the apt dwellers some kind on an explanation. Most were told to wait across the street in a CVS parking lot. The closest thing to any kind of explanation was "police situation". Cops never had the decency to advise anybody when they were green lighted to return. TV had one guy on the news complaining the cops wouldn't let him into the parking lot to get his car to go to work.

 

A CVS employee told me a Spanish speaking mother literally went crazy in the store. Her kids were in an apartment with a babysitter. She didn't quite understand being told to go to CVS and some how assumed her kids would be there. Somebody was able to reach the babysitter via cell phone and calm mom down.

Glad I no longer have to live in an apartment as I recall now, the landlord had that same right.

I have a similar clause in my rental contracts. Basically the landlord has the upper hand as I can enter with a perceived problem. I have only entered an occupied rental on one occasion without the tenant's prior knowledge. My false claim if challenged was going to be I suspected the unit was abandoned and not getting a response to notices placed on door. It was a bold faced lie but the tenant was a few days short of being three months behind and the electric and gas services were disconnected. Before you might think I was a bad guy. The tenant had a gambling problem and after being contacted by Gambler's Anonymous. I agreed to a 30 day extension. Another occasion after discovering squatters. Without knocking simply walked in with police.

 

Let's flush them out with lots of cartoon contests.

 

Great idea!! It would be the ultimate bait & switch advertisement. Only problem is the slime-balls would come out of hiding like the cock roaches they are when least expected with revenge on their minds.
