Summary
Residents in two East Seven Mile apartment buildings are trapped in a nightmare: paying rent to fake managers while living in crumbling, dangerous buildings plagued by pests and drugs. A judge froze rent payments last year, yet threats—including gunpoint intimidation—still force people to pay. Police Commissioner Darious Morris was threatened with a firearm while trying to help residents find safe housing, leading to an arrest. City officials are now relocating families, cutting utilities, and securing the properties owned by Real Token, a company facing lawsuits for neglect. With mold, water damage, and fear gripping the community, the city vows to protect residents and hold perpetrators accountable.
