Unusual Eviction / Tenant Situation

[Jeremy Drawas]

My original tenant was a good guy, but got caught up with some less desirable characters. I built him a wheelchair ramp when he needed it and we had a great relationship. Unfortunately, he associated with a woman who was addicted to heroin and treated the house like a dump. My ppty mgr tried to get him to sign a lease specifically forbidding that woman from the house, but he didn't sign and we moved on.

Unfortunately, my tenant has passed away and this woman has now been squatting in my house (for over 1 month now)! She has never paid 1 day's rent and I never agreed to have her there.

My ppty mgr is telling me that she has rights to be there because she had the approval of my tenant. Feels like she is trespassing. Can I call the police to remove her for trespassing? Do I have to go through the eviction process? Any advice would be appreciated.
