    Look up “crime free housing” it’s disgusting. It’s a way to have landlords evict the entire household based on an arrest. The main website

    http://www.crime-free-association.org/about_crime_free.htm

    Is an absolute fever dream of nonsense. The guy who pioneered the idea needs to be locked away.

    Not only is it a sick idea, it makes no sense. If someone is really dangerous, then they will go to prison after they are tried and convinced. Why should everyone in their home get evicted because of them?

      Thanks for the info. Its crazy to me how many people regularly completely disregard the concept of “innocent until proven guilty” like its not one of the, if not THE most important thing in our legal system.

        Innocent until proven guilty only applies to the government unless there are specific protections in place. The court of public opinion still exists. Fortunately my state updated their human rights act to prevent this kind of thing in regards to housing.

      Because that person is a vindictive sadist who enjoys causing suffering.

        I’m pretty sure it’s just a way to run minorities and other undesirables out of town. Arrest them on bogus or trumped up bullshit and then they get evicted even if they’re found not guilty or the charges are dropped.
