A Florida landlord is calling on Gov. DeSantis to take action after her home was illegally occupied for more than 34 days by squatters who caused $38,000 in damages.
. The squatters told police they were victims of a rental scam by a fraudulent landlord who they paid rent, a security deposit and a pet deposit to.
According to a police report, one of the squatters was removed from a home close by in mid-February, in a nearly identical situation. Her story raised eyebrows due to her last lease listing the same address for the false landlord as the one she claimed to have for Peeple’s property. Peeples said the police officer responding to the call"indicated that he was pretty sure that this young woman was a serial squatter because she had just been evicted from another house not very far away.""I have absolutely no right to go into this house because these squatters have the expectation of privacy, even though the law knows that they're squatters, I know that they're squatters, and they know they're squatters.
"Squatters are nothing more than criminals who are breaking and entering into a house, should not be handled in civil court," Peeples said."They should be treated within the criminal court system."State Rep. Angela Nixon told Fox News she is trying to add an amendment about squatters to a bill currently making its way through the Florida legislature regarding landlord-tenant relationships.
