Probably going to see a few more cases like these with some of the other large corporate landlords. If Biden had any political sense he’d campaign on the fact that his dept of justice is cracking down on corporate landlords whose greed presents direct material problems in people’s everyday lives but he won’t for some unknowable reason.
True, makes you think that whatever was happening here had to be a pretty flagrant and unignorable violation. I have a friend who works as a tenants rights lawyer and asked their opinion, and they responded with a “they fucked up bad.”
