Get Out, Leave Right Now: When Overstayed Welcomes Turn Criminal

This week, Danny dives into the world of housing disputes. First, the story of a pair of bamboccioni (aka “big babies”) in Italy, whose 75-year-old mother took them to court for freeloading. Next, an Italian Supreme Court case from 2020 about parents financially supporting their adult children. Finally, the story of Elizabeth Hirschhorn—aka the “tenant from hell”—who refused to leave (or pay for) her LA rental mansion for over 500 days, after previously pulling a similar stunt in Oakland.
