This blue state judge just issued a shocking ruling against a landlord that will infuriate you

There are more and more pitfalls to living in a blue state these days, from safety concerns to high taxes and left-wing social engineering.

And one of the most disgusting things is that those in power bend over backwards to favor criminals over law-abiding citizens.

Now this blue state judge just issued a shocking ruling.

Because of radical policies enacted by Democrats during the COVID-era, some Washington State landlords are now out tens of thousands of dollars in back rent and have no way to recoup their losses.

It almost isn’t worth being a landlord anymore

One of these landlords is Jaskaran Singh.

Singh owns a single-family home that he decided to put up for rent in the ritzy neighborhood of Woodridge, in Bellevue, Washington.

During the summer of 2022, Singh rented the house to Sang Kim and his family.

It was a decision Singh would come to regret.

During an interview on the Ari Hoffman Show on Talk Radio 570 KVI, Singh said he received the first and last month’s rent at the time Sang Kim moved into the house.

But that was the only rent money he would ever receive from Kim.

Sang Kim never paid any additional rent and according to Singh, his deadbeat tenant somehow found the money to buy two new cars.

After this went on for several months, Singh’s lawyer Stephen Freeborn filed all the necessary paperwork to evict Sang Kim.

A completely broken system

But then, the King County Bar Association’s Housing Justice Project effectively bailed Kim out.

They gave him free legal help and even paid back rent plus a three-month advance on future rent, so Kim and his family had time to move out.

But Kim never left, even though no more rent was paid and the lease expired.

Singh is rightfully frustrated beyond belief because he is now out more than $80,000 from mortgage and utilities on the property plus legal fees from trying to evict Kim.

He said during the interview with the radio station, “I lost my job in the summer. Juggling my own mortgage and paying double mortgage for the tenant’s house has become a considerable burden. I work two jobs to support my family and the tenant’s family.”

He added, “While my tenant enjoys a relaxed lifestyle, buys new cars, and celebrates [with] barbecues, I continue to struggle to pay my bills and double mortgages. Our tax dollars not only provide free legal support to my tenant but also pay his rent while he does little to contribute and seemingly manipulates the system.”

It turns out that for this deadbeat tenant, this is nothing new.

He has a history of pulling similar stunts with other landlords, refusing to leave, and saddling them with exorbitant costs.

Singh organized a protest outside his property where the squatter now resides.

Over 200 people showed up to support him.

But, in a twist, Kim anticipated the well-advertised protest and secured a restraining order against Singh.

The order was signed Friday by Judge Matthew A. Skau from the King County District Court’s East Division.

Singh told journalist Jonathan Choe, “There is no law protecting the landlord. Justice delayed is justice denied.”

Singh’s situation isn’t unique

That’s because King County courts are behind on over 600 eviction cases, many because of ordinances that deferred rent and prohibited evictions for tenants during the pandemic.

Singh relayed to Choe that he would try to organize more protests at the property until Kim leaves.

He also says that he has lost faith in the legal system and now advises against anyone becoming a landlord in Washington State.

Once again radical leftist policies are harming law abiding Americans and giving criminals a free ride at taxpayer expense.
