The city should pay for all damages and lost revenue since they enabled the squatters.
@PhillipMoore-vj6cc You as a citizen are paying for a lot. Migrants 1.5 bil, section 8 1.3 bil, homelessness 3 bil, etc. I guess you draw the line when they city forces homeowners ( who also pay taxes) to house losers. At least you have standards.
@mikeguy8517you're disgusting. You sound like one of these criminal squatters.
@mikeguy8517 you're a clown
@mikeguy8517 that's her property and she worked hard to save money before she can buy it. People who have a second property makes heaps of sacrifices to purchase another home .They have more than one mortgages and bills every month. If you have a shelter over your head, love that , respect other people's properties and belongings. Tenants and Squatters really damage million of homes
@mikeguy8517 someone's mad he's going to be out on the street because they're scvmbag criminals
I hope the charges against the homeowner were dropped. Part of the squatter's punishment should include restitution. Any money he made from renting out rooms should go to the owner.
They were dropped.
They were dropped but moving forward she has to answer yes to being arrested which should have NEVER HAPPENED!
@@coreturkoane5570 The world saw that video so she has nothing to worry about.
I can't imagine a squatter took over someone home , rented room by room and the home owner was arrested 😂😂😂😂😂. Funny America is corrupted
Squatters rights should not ever exist. Ever!
Definitely it’s basically trespassing
Squatters should NEVER have rights! 😡
Ms. Adell, sue the State of NY for putting you in jail, for all the damages, for the embarrassment of you being put into handcuffs, for the threat on your life...etc etc; How shameful that a Taxpayer, a Voting taxpayer, a Legal resident of New York, is put through this kind of nonsense in America!! All the Governors of each American State Need to take Notice. This was absolutely shameful that this is happening in America, as many continue to face major issues with squatters across the US. Truly shameful. Who is going to pay for all those damages that are now in her house!!! The Anti-Squatter Law should be very robust and clear , similar to the one signed in Florida this past March, if it isn't then an amendment (jail the squatter immediately, minimum one year in jail, restitution to the homeowner, removal is immediate, etc.,) needs to be done.
Unfortunately you’ll never see your money as most squatters r homeless ( thus squatting in your house)
@@erinb58 more like twatters. Put them to work & make them fix their f&_kups, even if it kills them.
That was very hurtful and embarrassing to arrest this owner.Shame on North America for taking advantage of people who get out of their beds to work like a slave to put a roof over the heads of horrible tenants and squatters.I guess this lady was doing 2 jobs
@mikeguy8517 She'll probably end up selling the house or just renting it out to someone. She's a house-flipper business I think.
Vote joe biden 2024 for crime.
This is so f🤮u🤬cked up when you cannot have your own home!!!
This country has gone to sh!t!
Agreed.
What are you talking about? Squatters Rights have been in the books for decades.
@@mactastic144 And they are all BS laws that need totally rewritten !!!!!!!!
@@mactastic144They shouldn't have rights to someone else's home. Lol
@@mactastic144they should have NEVER had rights! Someone breaks into your home and takes it over! Yet you still have pay your mortgage and taxes! This is insanity!
They still arent cracking down on this nearly enough. Nothing changes until people get violent or the crime spreads to these wealthy peoples neighborhoods
The simple solution is one rich people would hate.
To lease a space you need to apply a for a permit. That permit process requires you to be proven to be the owner record of a property. That permit lists the person authorized to sign lease contracts, or several people if it's a business that has employees.
You both must present ID and sign the lease in front of a county clerk. That lease is then filed, and copies given to both parties.
Someone claims to have a squatter and police are called. Police are shown paperwork by potential squatter and call the county clerk. Clerk checks to see if there is a permit and signed lease. There is a lease? Person is not a squatter and person calling is arrested. There is no lease? Police forcibly remove squatter(s) and bring them to jail.
This eliminates squatters staying in properties for any period of time, or tying up the civil courts. This also eliminates people getting scammed by losers who find empty houses to "rent" to unsuspecting third parties.
If squatters leave the house in damages they should be charged with that too
the amount of effort it took for this outcome is ridiculous
CONGRATULATIONS ADEL YOU HAVE YOUR HOME BACK 🎉🎊🎉🎊🎉🎊🎉🎊🎉
A home owner being arrested for trying to get back their stolen home was ridiculous. I’m glad they changed the law.
Don't thank those lawmakers. We pay taxes they need to do their job and protect law abiding citizen. They are public servants 🔥
There's nothing wrong with being thankful. It can be a good motivator for them to improve.
Why do they have rights in my house anyway?
because the demo----- love chaos. it pits us against each other and keeps our minds off the actual issues.
remember, florida changed squatters rights within a WEEK of all this mess going on.
Proof that the law can change quickly.
Those 2 words shld never go together 😒 (squatter rights)
Like: Oil & water, free money
Those 2 words shld never go together 😒 (squatter rights)
Like: Oil & water, free money
why the fuck is youtube msging me about this shit?
let me guess ,one of my comments got censored
Cause the democrats say so
Law should be named after her. Hope that once the house is cleaned up, that she can have good memories there again
Adelle please put security cameras whether you live there or visiting the house for now. Thank goodness the criminals " squatters" are in jail.
fight the good fight! god bless that lady.
Congratulations to her. The city needs to pay for all the damage that’s inside of her home. She should not have to pay out of pocket.🙏🏿❤🙏🏿❤🙏🏿❤🙏🏿❤🙏🏿
By the "city," you mean taxpayers.
Two long months???? Try Five long years!!!
I bought a primary residence in 2019. Previous tenant refused to move out. My attorney has been trying to get them out since then. And to this day still no avail!!!
Outrageous! Hopefully this new law will help you ! This is complete insanity
Thanks! Unfortunately it doesn’t since she had lease with previous landlord. Therefore she cannot be considered as squatter although I never signed a lease with her.
Release the dogs!!!
You need to report to your local news agency. It's worth a try to apply pressure! Good luck 🙏🏽
This is ridiculous! Never in my life (and I am old), have I seen America going down the tubes. Why should squatters have the right to live in a person's home?????????????? Our laws protect criminal behavior!
Because of that insane law favoring squatters.
The favors renters but squatters illegally took advantage of that law. Say you are legitimately renting a house and the owner decides that you need to go. The owner calls the police and claims that someone broke in and is living there. Police come, you show a lease / the owner shows a deed. Would you be OK with immediately being evicted and your stuff thrown out?
good job ABC7NY getting this out there
Governor Hochul needs to fix it for the homeowner because the governor policies allow squatter to destroyed the house.
Why don’t they freeze there banks accounts and pay the women for any damages for obvious invasion??
What bank account? These lowlife freeloaders don't have anything including integrity, morals or a conscious. They deserve prison
It’s about time that this squatter law in New York has finally stepped up their game although it’ll take a while to get used to the new adjustments
Imagine putting the same effort in affordable housing laws ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Thanks to Dan and 7 On Your Side for taking action! This is great progress. Considering the importance of the footage, perhaps airing the full 5 hours could be beneficial, similar to how Adele said '...had we not captured it...' Maybe even a mini-documentary series could be explored. Last, but certainly not least, Huge thanks to Adele for her persistence and feistiness!
I’m just glad they didn’t burn her house down.
Congratulations on getting your home back!
This great lady changed laws ❤🎉
I’m so glad to see the outcome. I remember her getting arrested and that is so frustrating!!! Supporting you from VA!
This is why you don’t leave a property vacant.
Notice how the squatter is not in jail plotting his revenge.
Notice how the squatter is homeless? Gee who would have thought
@@alternative-mgtow4140as if that should matter lol he can get fucked, same as all the other squatters 🤡
@@alternative-mgtow4140Nah, he is squatting somewhere else.
@@monk4ever I wish he is squatting in jail
@@blacki4268 not a cost effective solution is it ?
I think the cop should be reprimanded for arresting the owner.
Why, he was just enforcing the law and whatever charges she had. In this case, they were not rough with here, and it's not their fault.
@@djwoosie98 How about the cop using some discretion, whether to arrest or not? How about disobeying an unreasonable order?
@@christopherhennessey8991 what discretion? How would he know it's unreasonable
@@djwoosie98 She had proof she was the owner.
Thank God the nightmare is over!
One down, thousands of other poor homeowners with squatters to go...
"Not my best moment". No, she should have said she should have never been arrested in the first place and law makers needs to change the squatters laws.
Thanks very much to ABC 7 for their investigation, and for helping to get much needed law changes.
I enjoyed watching these episodes about Squatters moving in occupying and the owner felt relief that these Squatters are out of the owner's house
WHAT???
Adele, you did the right thing trying to reclaim YOUR property!
Sometimes you have to be your own hero when you can’t rely on others.
And how many home owners don’t have their homes? Who in the world made this insane law that squatters can do this? Those people that allowed this should be throughly punished and sent to prison!
I’m sorry that happened to you, but thank you for standing up these criminals.
Whoo! Congratulations to you, Ms. Andoloro! Been following her story and very happy to see her vindicated and her home returned squatter free!
I’m sooo happy to see it work out in her favor. This gives others some hope in the same situation
I had worst damage than that from a legitimate renter I had. Once I kicked them out, I fixed & sold that house
I'm so glad they got those criminals out of her house. Thank you for acting so quickly to aire her story. Please update us on what happened to the squatter.
Good for you!!!!! Whats a little jail time to change LAWS that effect BILLIONS across the country. You go girl!
I’m so glad they got into trouble. I hate seeing stuff like this. All laws need to be ceased immediately. Makes
Me
So
Angry 😡
Why isn’t it that the homeowner should just have to show the deed and if the squatter can’t produce a rental agreement then they should be removed
thanks to that brave woman who fought for her house, but also to the reporter Dan Krauth who made known the problem that exists in New York and that politicians do not want to face it, thanks to the quick action of DA of Queens Melinda Katz that gave a quick solution to All this
Thank you for doing a follow up
America is weird. I can’t imagine owning a home where people can just occupy it and I cannot do anything about it!
That's why I don't buy a house, is never , ever yours, no matter what
God Bless you and all your family 😊 Thank you for your sacrifice 🙏 ❤️ 🙌 Peace , Joy, love and Happiness. You Helped alot of others. Kudos 👏 😅
If DeSantis can sign a new law, then any governor can. They just don't want to!
DeSantis was like I'm tackling this now before it gets too wild...
First thing change the smoke detector batteries .....
This is what America is supposed to be like.
Fairness.... Instead of selfish people taking everything. And abusing innocent people.
This poor woman! She shouldn’t have had to wait one day to get in her OWN home ! It’s insanity Hope she has some recourse for the damages they did to her own
I used to house sit, stay in their house, for people to protect their home while they were away either for the season or vacation. They’d pay me to do it. I kept it clean, occupied, and watched for any break downs and any yard or pets they had.
Arresting the true owner on her own house is the stupid thing NYPD did. I thought nypd have more common sense but is just that in the US, squatters should have no right in other houses.
NY politicians should make a law that like innFlorida. Squatters have no right
Invest in a security system with cameras so that you'll know immediately when someone trespasses and can have them arrested and removed the same day. $40+/mo is worth the prevention.
If squatters are working they need to be assessed damages and their paychecks garnished until paid for if not working and receiving any kind of check from anywhere then that needs to be garnished until damages are paid for....they need to be held responsible for the damages they do.
I really hope the judge forces restitution by the squatters for the damage they created in her place. That's truly despicable what they did to someone else's home.
That video of her getting arrested made all the difference!
Welcome to NY. The city should be responsible for all damages
Was her arrest voided? The level of ignorance and disregard for her rights is disgusting.
Judge, the entire legal system protects the squatters. Now they have a new law in NY, that in order to take the squatters to court, you need to know the exact name. I have been chasing, searching for their name, because if the name is wrong or misspelled, the whole case is thrown out of the court. I had 9 unknown people. Police can't help you and are not willing to help you either. The city fined me multiple times for the amount of garbage outside the house. I have to clean up the outside every 2 weeks to avoid more fines. Just 2 weeks before court day, additional people move in, and those were not listed in the court case. The court is to protect them, not the taxpayers. After more than a year, I was able to take them out. The house was destroyed.
SO VERY SWEET
Reallocate them to mayors houses
There has to be laws protecting homeowners but instead the laws protect criminals
Why squatters have any rights whatsoever is beyond me. They have hijacked/stolen someone's home.
Thank God she got her home back i felt like pullin up for her 🤣♥️♥️
The first thing I would do.....change the battery in the fire detector!!!😂😂😂
The squatters deserve 15yrs on each count.
Capital punishment
They are criminal trespassers who broke & entered in her home & others! They should never be called “squatters “, like they had rights to be on her private property! They are thieves and burglars! Should be held responsible for damaging her home , even if she could set up a lien on their accounts! The law needs to take it to the next level to hit their pockets. Like they do criminals who robbed banks , make them responsible for restitution! A lot of tax payers money including the homeowners was wasted for this so called amended law to pass, got police , district attorney, court system ect They need to pay for ALL the costs associated with unlawfully breaking into her property!
Squatters should be made to pay damages. Ridiculous that they can break into a house, damage it and leave scott free.
When did it go from breaking and entering and robbery to this called squatters crap
So glad she was able to get her home back 😄...
Sell take the money and run
The state needs to make the squatter pay for all the damages and a year worth of rent to this woman.
🙏🙏🙏
Ms Adell wasn't playing lol. So happy for her ❤❤
They made such a wreck of the place, it would cause emotional damage to move back in. She needs to find a new place and sell that home.
Isn't the owner who was arrested by police for trying to get rid of the squatter
There’s a movie about squatting called pacific heights
That is fabulous! Now homeowners need a bill of rights!
We want to hear the whole story.
Wow
In Florida, squatters get removed after one day
Finally…
Finally, the ridiculous law changes for the better. Still, squatters find ways around things! 💪😎✌️ Stay classy, society.
Well done the media!
2 months......is a long time.....Her home is destroyed.
What a great story-homeowners should have the same right to have squatters removed as businesses do-police were able to immediately remove a woman who was living inside a sign on the roof of a business. But people break into a vet's house while he is in the hospital and he can't get them removed. Like this woman. There need to be reasonable renter's rights, but these squatters are not renters. People do need a place to live, but taking over innocent people's property is not the answer and should be dealt with immediately as the crime it is.
Homeowners want to remove calling squats to renting for higher profit to somebody else, that's ilegal.
At the end, you won 🏅 🏆
A magic chef fullsize fridge? How these squatters pull these off
SAGE!!!
What's Brian up to
Squatters have more rights than owners
Why do squatters get treated better than the people who own the home?
CHANG THE BATTERY ON YOUR SMOKE ALARM!!!!!
What about the squatters???
It took that to get the necessary changes regarding the Laws? Really disgusting.
It's easier to steal a house than a car.
