Oh, this is a good one.

There is no doubt that all our good stories come from managing the ghettoplex. And today is no different.

A new family moved in a few months ago. they are very nice and have two kids and seem really great. The only thing I'll say is that they are both a bit pushy which makes me not want to help as much when problems arise. Although, I have been sort of cranky lately, so it's probably just me.

ANYWAY... they needed to have their toilet replaced and our maint. guy (Matt) wanted to do it this afternoon. When i talked to the guy to coordinate he said they weren't going to be home so we should do it another day unless I could sit with the maint. guy the entire time. ( something i just don't really do.) Apparently, he was worried that Matt was going to steal his jewelry. So, even though i was completely bugged, i conceded and sat down there with Matt while he switched out the toilets.

Now, this is the good part. I start nosing around on his dresser just to kill the time and i spot this little brown envelope with the words LAPD evidence printed on Red Tape. What?? I look closer and it has this guys name as the Arrestee. whoa. He was arrested? And apparently he had 92 cents on him and the LAPD was giving it back. ok. well, people have pasts, i get that. it was probably from years and years ago.

So, of course i have to keep looking to see what else i can find... and next to the envelope there are 2 receipts from the jail saying that he was arrested on 11/23/07 ( a mere 4 days ago!!) for Spousal Battery! what? His bail was set at $20,000.

Wow! Does anyone normal live here??

Maybe it was good I found it, right? From now on I'll be watching out for his poor wife.

Oh, and there was a suspicious looking picture frame with no photo and no glass. smashed against a wall maybe?? The stuff of sopa operas.....

Crazy! I can't resist snooping too :)

Holy cow!!! That's crazy. I love hearing your apartment managing stories. You always have great ones. I too agree it's good that you know though so that you can keep an eye out now. Not that you probably want that responsibility, but you never know how it could help that poor wife. Ugh....good luck.

What a crazy/great life you lead. We had tons of fun with you guys here! We've been back over to Rolyne's since you left and as soon as we got there Annicka asked where Sophie and Owen were. BTW, Rolyne loves the cabinets and we'll make sure to post more pictures in the next couple of days with the finished product.

I love that you snooped! The story could have stood all on it's own but that you found it out by snooping....GREAT!
