My niece is another victim. Her ex-boyfriend threatened to kill her with a knife. The apartment complex where she lives will not let her out of her lease. She has moved home but must continue to pay the rent a total of almost $4000. The worse part is that this young man does not work and will not move out, therefore the apartment complex wants my niece to pay HIS share also. Police reports have been filed on the assaults and a restraining order has been obtained…the complex will not even consider helping out this young woman by letting her out of the lease. I WILL NEVER LIVE THERE!!!!!

I too was a victim of a recent robbery and home invasion at gunpoint in South Bend. My landlord has yet to respond to my request to break my lease. This bill has the potential to help robbery victims from becoming murder victims. Please get out and sign one of these petitions or contact your local representatives. With your help, tragedies like this one can be prevented.

This should have been a law before….Sheena should have been able to use this instead of being murdered. I think that it is sad that it takes something so tragic.
