Occupant on House Arrest- The plot thickens

Hi all-

The plot thickens and as I am waiting for a reply from my lawyer, I thought I would see if anyone has knowledge of this issue.

Today, I found out that my horrible tenant is keeping someone at the house on house arrest. It could be his adult son, but I am not sure. It seems, when the agent was showing the house the CO detector, plugged into the wall was beeping. I am out of town and afraid to not respond to issues like this. I called the Fire dept to check it out and my realtor was there to let them into the basement if need be. Amongst, the fact that the tenant called the police on my realtor and screamed for her to get off his property, yes where I live also, and said he was having the sale assigned to someone else, it seems that the alarm was a house alarm system as someone is under house arrest.

Just wondering if this gives me more legal rights as I live there and was not informed, or if this gives my tenant EVEN more rights?

Thanks
Sandra
