Dear Camden Council
Dear Ms Clarke and Mr Zoffman,
I have spoken to the Deposit Protection Scheme and taken a solicitor's advice: they have instructed me that any moneys must be agreed upon in the courts. Tomorrow Mr Longo's tenancy is over and a notice to repossess will be sent. Demands for money from me or my father made by Mr Longo in order to make good his promise to leave my property, I consider blackmail and harassment. Blackmail, I might remind you all, constitutes a criminal offense, and is dealt with as such in a court of law.
Rhonda, please instruct your client to stop demanding money from me or my father as an agreement to leave the flat. It is offensive, distressing and illegal, and should my father (who has severe heart problems) or I suffer any further, I will consider Camden council personally responsible.
I am extremely sad, pained and distressed that both my retired father and I have had to put up with this shockingly unpleasant behavior and that we have to resort to litigation to impress upon Mr Longo the legally binding nature of his tenancy agreement, and the financial, emotional, physical and legal repercussions of his refusal to leave my property.
I would suggest you now ask Mr Longo to leave my property as soon as possible and rest assured all monies will be dealt with legally, by the courts. I am grateful, Rhonda, that you have managed to stop Mr Longo harassing me - until today, when he sent me a threat of legal action and a particularly unpleasant email to my father who is suffering greatly from the unpleasant nature and harassing tone of Mr Longo's communications. Now I must ask that you please stop Mr Longo harassing my father as well as myself. The only communication I wish from Mr Longo is a guaranteed agreement to leave, and rest assured all monies will be dealt with by the solicitors provided by the Government Deposit Scheme to avoid unreasonable demands and threats from Mr Longo.
I have heard that Mr Longo has promised to vacate the property by April 13th. I assume this promise still stands, but unfortunately as we are all aware, a promise from Mr Longo does not constitute a reality, and we will issue the notice to repossess and hope that he leaves without causing any further damage to this family's wellbeing.
Please advise your client more wisely Ms. Clarke and Mr Zoffman. In the past week I have received numerous emails which constitute harassment. I personally, am on the verge of a breakdown, and am being looked after by friends in the US because the stress of this situation, not to mention the financial implications. This has all made it impossible for me to move into the room I had intended to rent in London, rendering me homeless and unable to work. This whole situation has been, perhaps, one of the worst of my entire 32 years on this planet and I find it incomprehensible that a tenant whom I asked to leave my property after his lease had ended - a tenant whom I asked to leave because of sexual harassment, noise, consistent unpleasantness, threats to break the lease, then threats to overstay past the tenancy agreement, a man I asked to leave with good grace because I was worried about benefit fraud being committed on my property - is now being allowed to get away with trying to demand money from my sick GP father, and from a woman who rented her home out to him in good faith, through the right channels, with trust and kindness, because she couldn't pay the mortgage - me.
Please deal with this situation immediately, and I would sincerely appreciate an apology to my father that he has had to deal with threats and unpleasantness from Mr Longo.
The 28th March is my birthday. The best gift I could wish for is this man leave my home because he is scaring me, and I believe the stress of his demands are compounding my father's ill health. I am not asking Mr Longo to leave because I wish him homeless, I wish him ill - I wish him none of this. I believe him a perfectly capable young man who is intelligent and able-bodied enough to find a home he can pay for through his freelance work as a sound artist. I have no prejudice against DSS tenants in the slightest, although my experience with Mr Longo has, unfortunately, proven one that has made me question whether I would ever have a DSS tenant in my flat again, and this saddens me and is against every principle I have believed in my entire life.
I'm asking Mr Longo to leave because he frightens me, and his refusal to leave, his demands for money, are yet another indication of his intent to harass and bully me. This, in itself, is terrifying. Please do everything in your power to get my home back before it kills my father and sends me into the Psych Ward.
