Tenant Threatening to Kill Me.

[Michael Healy]

I have a tenant that has frankly lost it. Like the title says she has threatened to kill me on two occasions. One is a voicemail that I still have. She texts me at all hours of the night and calls at all hours of the night. She has been informed that her month to month lease will end this month. Her capacity is such that I can’t even tell what is real and what is in her mind. 

Of course this was an inherited tenant, but I’ve had no issues until now. (Section 8 of course) She has three kids. Two boys and a girl. I think when the girl moved out things fell apart. Some friends of mine are police officers and they said they think she got into bath salts.

Anyway I’m wondering if this allows me to move an eviction any faster. She has said she’s not leaving...

Also, my eviction attorney says its best to give her a good standing report for section 8 or else I’ll never get rid of her. What if I don’t follow that advice?

Thanks for any help or advice.
