  • My interview video for a couple articles that had been posted recently. Here is that video about when I first met Adam Fleischman living rent free in Claudia Cummings home.
    RIP Claudia 🙏🙏
    The experience was too much for her and she decided to take her own life less than 30 days after the removal of her squatter.

    From what I see in thse videos. He's a narcissist. Nothing is ever thier fault, and if confornted with facts, they deflect, they gaslight, etc. It's always someone else's fault.
    Narcissistic personality disorder is a mental health condition in which people have an unreasonably high sense of their own importance. They need and seek too much attention and want people to admire them. People with this disorder may lack the ability to understand or care about the feelings of others.

      @rls25132 5 месяцев назад

      Actually what would commonly be called a sociopath or psychopath is called Antisocial Personality Disorder under the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual used by mental health professionals..DSM 5. Use his name as often as possible ADAM FLEISCHMAN is a retched criminal who has blood on his hand among several criminal acts upon an elderly grieving woman he stole from, and he battered a woman/friend who tried to protect the homeowner who was living in the home he took over. He alluded to two men he was offering to rent out the homeowner's room when she died, providing a pre-rental tour, benefitting from her death in overtaking the entire property. She "commits suicide" the day after he leaves" I immediately question whether he was complicit in her death. Fit with his display of Antisocial Personality Disorder..

If I’m in that situation I know the LAPD had no jurisdiction to tell her anything. Civil matter means civil and releases Police authority. She should have locked the door day one. But most people are intimidated by Police presence. Thanks for watching.
