Twenty-year-old Lauren Chacon never imagined her landlord would use his key to enter her apartment while she slept. Never. EVER!
The other tenants, all single mothers, knew what it was like to wake up with their landlord Harry Hubbard standing over them, or waiting with a towel when they stepped from the shower. They suggested she prop a chair against her door at night, and do laundry while the landlord was away. And, since Hubbard was a deputy sheriff, they warned against reporting him to authorities because it could only result in their mail being diverted, their cars impounded, or their credit cards stolen. And no one could prove the landlord placed that anonymous call to Child Protective Services that cost one complainant custody of her child.
When Hubbard failed to report to work, the LAPD's Dessa Speer and Sheriff Deputy Arnold Rich soon determined tenants knew more about the landlord's disappearance then they were willing to admit.
