    Hoarding is a symptom of a mental illness, which we dont' know how to deal with, as evidenced by the thousands of tents and homeless all over the state. If the owner won't or can't pony up the money for periodic clean outs, it's up to the city or county to have some sort of ordinance on the books that would allow them to go on private property and clean up. Tricky. And what city/county is going to pay for it, even if the owner was willing? And then, what do you do with the mentally ill person who lives there as they''ll just start all over again?

      We have court mandated anger management, court mandated sober living/rehab... Hoarding needs to be treated with therapy as much as it does with contractor's trash bags. It would be cheaper for the state to do ONE clean out and then do a 51-50 hold but between the neglect that happens within mental health facilities and the unwillingness to admit this case or homelessness IS a mental health crisis... 🤷‍♂🤷‍♂ That's LA county for you.

      its private property... and likely no agency has a direct mandate / funding to go through and clear the stuff out. Most people are not this delusional... both mom and son are obviously mentally unwell. Who / which department is going to pay contractors to haul it out - pay dump fee's etc.

      @@ng28 No. The MOM is completely sane. I saw the intial reporting a while back.
      The mom admitted the son, who was the one living in this dump yard, WAS in fact a horder.
      But the mom lives in La Canada or La Crescenta or one of those rich neighborhoods, and enabling the son to live like this.
      She didn't want to be on camera when the reporter knocked on her door, and apparently she didn't even show up to this hearing.
      They are just both complete weirdos, and deserve everything they got coming to them.
      Doesn't matter if it's private property, when you're posing harm and inconveniencing your neighbors.
      People just don't know how to live amongst each other.
      You gotta mind OTHERS from time to time, not just yourself.

      She lives in La Canada or La Crescenta, one of those areas.
      It's the SON that lives there, and the woman has been on record stating the son was a horder.
      The woman refused to be on camera during the initial interview, and apparently didn't even show up to this hearing.
      Stop being so sympathetic. These are probably not the ones that deserve your sympathy.
