McGriff Family Home Defense
2016-Apr-01 @ 09:30 - 11:30
Recently Elizabeth McGriff and another home defender, Barbara Horton, met with the the chief of the Civil Bureau in the Monroe Co Sheriff's office in search of security where they rest their heads at night. The chief offered a brief break in Ms McGriff's case, but said they will be coming to remove her from her property as early as April 1st. It was even joked about that maybe it would be a surprise on April 1st since this day is known as the national pranking holiday "April Fools". Wrongful eviction is not funny to us. Corporate greed is not funny to us. Vacant houses are not funny to us. A person's security in their own home is not funny to us. Inequality is not funny to us. Families on the street are Not Funny to us. We will not stand for this injustice while our Sheriff's department, working against our community for out of state corporations, jokes about Elizabeth McGriff and her family's security in their home.
