Chicago landlord must pay $80,000 for threatening to call ICE on tenants!!!!!!!!!!!

What happened to Ear's if you see something say something

 

[Scoutster]

Lesson, Don't threaten, do. Start eviction proceedings for non payment of rent. Call ICE and file a complaint. Just don't threaten you're going to do it.

 

[Godboy]

this is insane. Section 1324 title 8 says it's a federal felony to encourage illegals to live here. So they had a legal obligation to evict them. On top of that, these illegal alien squatters were not paying their rent!

Now i know who is next on ICE's deportation list.

It is against the law threaten to use a person's perceived immigration status to evict them from their home.

The landlord has no idea of their immigration status, he could have just called ICE but he did not, he told them he was going to call ICE and used that to intimidate.

Read the fucking news next time not just some headline parroted on Twitter.

He was blackmailing them.

I don’t think blackmail is considered protected speech.

But you can start the eviction process as outlined in the lease contract. You're not allowed to simply move into a place, sign a contract that you will pay a certain rent to live there then refuse to pay and refuse to leave.

Of course you can start the process. You can even say, if you don't pay me by friday, I will evict you. You can't say if you don't pay me by friday I will have ICE deport you.

He should have simply evicted them. Notifying ICE would prevent him from being charged with concealing them, but no need to threaten.

 

[Scoutster]

He should’ve acted, not threatened pussies threaten. Don’t mean to offend any women. I was taught young you swing first and you swing till one of you drops. I have no sympathy for landlord. For the nut job passive liberals that are going to not like this post and say violence doesn’t solve anything that is bullshit, violence even the threat of it solves things. Ask Zelly boy

No it isn’t. If you know the party residing or squatting is not legally here then you are free to address that to him
You make up the most insincere and ridiculous claims to try and support “an illegals rights to do illegal things and not face repercussions”

 

[WEATHER53]

He was blackmailing them.

He was correctly identifying their illegal status as well as non payment
Cry more for criminals

Blackmailing people is a crime.

 

[WEATHER53]

Blackmailing people is a crime.

Blackmail involves exchanges of money or things/services of value
No blackmail at all emotional chump to state “you are here illegally “ and must go. They are also likely not on the lease, not paying either and thus squatters not tenants
Trumps ending bending over backwards for illegals so called “rights”

Rent is money.

He said pay the rent or I'm reporting you.

That's blackmail.

 

[WEATHER53]

Just got the status from our corporate attorney
Immigration status is not a federally protected class as to housing or remaining in housing. For example, if they don’t have an SS number you can consider that as a reason to not rent to. Providing housing for a property you own still has discretionary aspects and you are never Required to rent to despise lib loons commie assertions to the contrary
More lib loon hopes and wishes presented as fact

One man’s blackmail is another man’s motivation. “You must do this because” is not an outlawed phrase

It's not a "you must do this because". It's a "you must do this or else".

Damn! What stupid fucking democrat got us stuck with THAT bullshit law? Why do democrats always screw over US citizens at every turn?

There is nothing about immigration status being a federally protected class and it’s illegal to ask immigration status. No such statute exists as to getting housing or being removed from housing
All made up lies by those who offer feelings as facts
