A Georgia homeowner, Loletha Hale, was arrested after trying to reclaim her Livingston Drive house from an alleged squatter, Sakemeyia Johnson. Hale had previously called police in August when she discovered Johnson in her residence. Despite a court ruling in Hale's favor, Johnson remained in the property. When Hale returned to clean, she claimed Johnson had broken the locks. The incident escalated when Hale attempted to forcibly remove Johnson's belongings, leading to her arrest for criminal trespass and terroristic threats.
A Georgia homeowner was jailed after trying a few weeks ago to move back into her Livingston Drive house, which was occupied by an alleged squatter.
Per the WSB-TV article, Clayton County Magistrate Court Judge Latrevia Lates-Johnson ruled that Johnson was not a squatter due to the fact she is related to a previously evicted tenant’s partner, a decision that set off a court battle. During the December 9 incident, a deputy was heard on body camera telling Hale to see the situation from the alleged squatter’s viewpoint, stating, “Just think of it from this perspective, though. Everybody isn’t as fortunate as you to have a bed. All the little things, a bed in their house, food in the kitchen.
