Squatter's Rights? - In Your Own home?

     Who would ever think if you left your home to go to work in another area for two weeks you would come home to strangers living there. This is a true story happening in America. Yes, I saw it on Dr. Phil, but if that could happen to such a nice average couple it can happened to anyone. It made me feel that if you leave your home for any extended period of time, you better have a house sitter!
      In this case these strangers who the owners never met, didn't rent to them, didn't lease to them, just moved in lock, stock and barrel. They took complete possession.
       It went so far that the owners ended up living in their own basement sleeping on an air mattress with two small children,  and had to get an eviction notice for these strangers, these lowlife amoebas.  Once they got the eviction notice the strangers filed bankruptcy. That ended up to then put a stop to everything including the eviction because the strangers listed the house as theirs. How do people such as those who took over get away with it. Maybe they need some old fashioned Brooklyn attitude adjustments.
    On a positive note, Dr. Phil contacted The Bank of America who holds the mortgage and is now helping the family to straighten out this awful situation. But what if there wasn't a Dr. Phil? Why wouldn't bank of America listen to these people the first time? Why wouldn't Bank of America help the first time? Did they just want something positive about the bank to air? Okay I'll drop that, but the biggest question here is, how does this happen in America and how are people allowed to use the system to get away with plain old S---!
