Complaint Review: Elaine Huggins

I am a Marine Corps veteran. I was medically discharged due to a neurological disorder.

I was scammed by Elaine D Huggins of 2601 Ivy Glen Drive in Conway SC and her deranged lazy eyed convicted felon tenant whom I only know as Tommy. Tommy rents the house behind where I lived at (((redacted))) I am a 2008 graduate from the police academy at Lackawanna College in Hazleton, PA. I graduated with a flawless transcript. My ex and I had decided to move to Florida after I graduated. After breaking up, I moved back up to Pennsylvania to work for a police department. Unfortunately the hiring process was taking far longer than I had ever expected and I had to find a new job. I started working at a facility that was supposed to be protecting and helping adjudicated delinquents. They were doing the exact opposite.

They would throw their food on the floor, place them in illegal restraints and
throw objects at them. They also falsified documentation and asked me to do so
as well. I wanted no part of this, and I filed multiple reports at the State
level. The staff at that facility retaliated, creating a very hostile work
environment and then firing me. I lost me job because I stood up for what was
right.

  I was renting a house from a police officer that I graduated from the academy with. But when I lost my job, there was no money to pay the rent any more, and his wife became angry, forcing him to evict me. The last thing he ever said to me, someone who I thought was my friend, was (((REDACTED FOUL LANGUAGE)))

. That took the fight right out of me, when I felt like I lost my last friend. I lost any motivation to continue.
 
So, I decided to relocate to Conway, SC in the hopes of restarting my life, forgetting upsetting memories and re-establishing my financial stability. I rented a small home from a woman named Elaine D. Huggins of Conway, South Carolina. When I first arrived at this new home that I  ound on Craigslist, I was greeted by a cross eyed man with a shot gun. I quickly calmed him down and explained who I was and why I was there. He lived in the other house that Elaine  owns on that property. All was well in the beginning, but my business was very slow to take off again. I repair the insides of laptops. I have failed at this business before, but was now armed with new ideas that I was sure would help me succeed this time. And I was right. The few customers that I did get, loved me.

Unfortunately, the work wasnt coming in fast enough. By February 1st, all I had was $300 in cash. The rent is $400 a month. I gave Elaine everything I had the $300. I didnt pay my phone bill because in my mind, rent had to come first. Then the struggling got worse. With no money to pay the electric bill, I had to turn off the hot water heater to conserve. Now keep in mind, Elaine got paid 75% of Februarys rent. So that would take me the first 3 weeks.

  But by February 23rd, the Sheriff posted a letter on my door that read something like this You need to see the judge to tell them why you shouldnt be evicted. So I took that letter to the court house and they scheduled a hearing, for March 7th. I thought that the judge was going to hear my situation and work something out, something objective and reasonable. Boy was I wrong.

  The judge Bradley Maiers a quack of a judge in Horry County, SC was anything but professional and objective. During this hearing Elaine lied in court. The judge asked her how much does he owe you. She ruffled some papers around, and then said according to my calculations, he owes me $25 a day in late fees on top of the rent which comes out to about $600. Elaine was attempting to collect late fees for all of February, even though she got paid the majority of Februarys rent! So she implied that I was 5 weeks late on the rent, when I was really only two weeks late on march 7th,
2012. I even have a receipt, that she signed proving that she was paid $300 for Februarys rent! I told the judge that she was lying, but he wouldnt listen. He insisted that I owed her whatever came out of her mouth.

And then things got worse. The judge ruled in her favor, and when I asked how much time I had to get out, he said Monday at 9 am. That gave me just 2 business days to find a new place to live. I told the judge that I could not find a new place in that short of amount of time and that I would end up living in my car. Do you know how judge Bradley Maiers responded? He chuckled. He grinned. He smirked. He actually seemed to enjoy watching me digest this horrible news, like some sort of narcissistic creep.
Judge Bradley Maiers is a narcissistic creep who does not belong on the bench.

There is nothing funny about people who are struggling, it is not a joke. Hopefully he will soon be unemployed, and maybe he needs to spend some time living in his car, like I am right now. Then when he sees what its really like, he wont find it so amusing.

Seeing is believing, right? That's why I included with this report a copy of the receipt that Elaine gave me when I paid here in February. This proves, beyond a reasonable doubt, that Elaine D. Huggins on Conway South Carolina is a liar and a fraud. Let it be known.
 
Now on Friday night, I called Elaine I told her that she lied in court and that she wouldnt get away with it. I told her that I would go to the news with my story. Her attitude changed very quickly. Here is a transcript of that actual conversation:

  Rob : Before I go to the media with this story, you might want to consider working with me

Elaine Calm down, just breathe, relax
Rob: Relax? Im going to be living in my car in a couple of days
Elaine: No youre not. Someone is going to come talk to you tomorrow
Rob: The judge already signed the order. I have to go
Elaine: Unless I work with you. Do you want me to help you or not?
 
Saturday came and went. And no one ever showed up. So, on Sunday night, in a last ditch effort to reason with her, I contacted Sheriff Perry Richardson who was to come evict me at 9 am on Sunday. I told him that she said that she would work with me. He told me to tell her to call him. I called her and left his number.

9 am Monday morning, no Sheriff. Noon, no sheriff. I left a message on Richardsons voicemail, asking him to clarify why he hadnt evicted me yet. He never called me back. I assumed that she called off the eviction, for now.
 
Tuesday rolls around. Stupid enough to think that maybe some god had cut me a break, I went job hunting, grabbing applications everywhere I could. I then took the last of the cash I had and bought a much needed Mic and stand. I play the piano in bars and was hoping to do that more to get some extra money to get caught up. I then re-visited CAPS, an organization in Conway, SC that was going to provide up to $300 of the back rent that I owed Elaine. Elaine never called them back. They would have paid
her right away. On my way back from that music store, I get home. I unlock
the door, the place is trashed. There wasnt much in there but everything was
thrown around. My piano, a Yamaha P95 88 key weighted digital piano was
gone. I had laptops in there that I wasnt finished fixing yet. Who ever stole
my piano also ripped open one of the boxes and stole the laptop. All the
cabinets were open. I was furious. I ran out of the house and went to my cross
eyed shot gun welding neighbor Tommy. I told him to call the police because I
had just been burglarized. He looked nervous. He said Let me call Ms. Elaine first. He went back in his house and shut the door. I frantically looked around asking neighbors if they saw anything. I go back up to Tommys door, and Tommy said Elaine told me to call the cops on you for trespassing. So, at this point, I was robbed, and homeless. I felt sick. I got in my car and sped over to that music store and pleaded with the owner to let me return that microphone and stand because I needed the money to drive to Florida to try and get my old job back working with Alzheimers patients.
 
I know Tommy broke in and stole those items. I know it for a fact. When I first moved in, he bragged about how he knew how to open that lock. He actually broke in to let me when I first got there because I didnt have a key yet. And he stole from me already. He stole my grill. He repeatedly asked Well if youre moving, you want that grill. I repeatedly  told him I dont know yet. He just took it. This was a few days prior to the
burglary, of course. I told him that I paid $80 for the grill and $40 for the tank. He handed me $15 and said I have to go to the bank to get the rest. He never did. And on the day that I was burglarized, his garage door was open. I saw a white crate that was mine. He stole it right from the front of the house. This same piece of garbage who kept telling me how much jesus loves me, robs me.

  I tried over and over to call that sheriff, but he wouldnt answer. On my way back to the music store after the burglary, I called 911, just to document that I had been burglarized. I told them that I wasnt going to stick around to talk to them. They said that they cant come out then. I basically told them where to shove it and hung up. SC really needs some laws to help protect tenants from dishonest tyrants like Elaine Huggins and criminals like Tommy. Dont worry Tommy, once I find out your real name I will post a special blog about you. The address, if anyone knows him 3449
Kates Bay Highway Conway SC. He has crazy eyes. He drives a Harley. Supposedly
his wife committed suicide but I have my doubts.
 
So on my way to Florida, I would stop at rest stops and check my email and make a few calls using Skype. I called Elaine's phone. She answered and hung up on me. I called back. Guess who answers? Tommy! So, not only did Tommy burglarize me, but Elaine may have assisted him! I asked Tommy where he was right now. He said Im in here fumigating the house you were living in. Keep in mind, the Sheriff never executed the eviction. So Tommy admitted to trespassing.
 
My life is destroyed. What kind of lowlife burglarizes someone who is about to be homeless? Elaine Huggins, Tommy and judge Bradley Maiers what goes around comes around. I can only hope that you creeps have to experience what I have had to experience and what I am experiencing right now. Conway, SC is a small town. The word of what they did to me is going to spread, and hopefully, they will be rejected by the rest of their community. I wrote this at 4 am from a Dunkin Donuts. Maybe now that I got this off my chest, I will be able to get some sleep.

  Some good news: If I live in my car for a few days, the VA has a special program to assist homeless vets, but I must be homeless for at least 4 days before they can intervene. Meanwhile, I plan to rent a garage at a mini storage place and set up camp there. Im a survivor.

Ill find a way. I always do.
