How can the police decide it’s not criminal?
Hello everyone, I have had a story of one of my trashed properties make it into the Salisbury Journal >> https://www.salisburyjournal.co.uk/news/20273464.wiltshire-landlord-pays-30k-repairing-destroyed-house/
“A Wiltshire landlord paid out £30k in repairs following fears her nightmare tenant would “blow up the house”.
“Kathy has been a landlord for more than 30 years, but says the tenant she dealt with last year was the worst she has ever encountered.
“Wiltshire Police classified the incident as a civil complaint after deciding there – wasn’t enough evidence for a realistic criminal conviction.”
Please can I can share it with Property118 readers and ask that fellow landlords also share their stories in the comments below.
I also want to highlight the question: How can the police decide this is not criminal?
Many thanks
Kathy
