Need Legal Advice On Horrible Ex Tenant?


So we had a nightmare of a tenant living in one of our apartments not so long ago. Where to start, first this ladie was one of those ladies that did not want to grow up. her son was 15 years old and was already affiliating him self with gangs. She would have visitors and 90% of them were gang members. they broke down the back fence for easy access to her apartment ($500 fix). Besides that she lived 3 whole months without paying rent until finally the court asked her to leave and she still refused to leave. Once we went in to change the locks it felt like if you were walking into a sewer! she wouldn’t wash clothes, she would just throw the dirty clothes on the floor and go to one of the those clothes donation places so she wont have to wash. I saw at least like 20 rats while cleaning and fixing the apartment. And what did i find in one of the cabinets? a slightly folded spoon with white residue on it and a needle on the side! i thought no wonder she lived like this. no normal person can live like this. So i thought the nightmare was over and we get hit with a letter from fair housing foundation that we discriminated against her kids and our rental contract discriminates against children. I don’t know if they have a different copy of our contract, but i see nothing wrong with what we have about children. It states “children are not allowed to throw trash in front of the building or in other areas of the premises. visitors bringing children must provide supervision for saftey of children and cleanliness of premises”. also ” any additional person wishing to reside in the property, the lessor must be notified first, and if approved by lessor, a charge of $50.00 monthly per person will be collected, adult or child” is that discriminating on children? also if you don’t show up to the fair housing classes whats the worst that can happen because first my mom doesn’t know english very well and shes very busy to waist her time on this. thank you
