Chris Harte Philadelphia homeowner forced to pay squatters $1200 to reclaim property after cops refused to arrest alleged squatters
A Pennsylvania man had to pay squatters to make them leave his own house. He now blames the squatters' rights.
A Philadelphia homeowner was forced to pay $1,200 to get a squatter to vacate his property, as he says the Democrat-run city and even its police force is 'rewarding criminals.'
