"EVICTED"
Olivia Holzhauer, 9, hugs her family dog Miley after she walked home from school to find her family evicted and belongings removed to the front lawn on September 15, 2011 in Centennial, Colorado. Sheriff's deputies served a court order to evict the family of five after they had earlier fallen behind in a rent payment, and the owner sued for their eviction. The renter, John Holzhauer, a home building contractor, said he lost up to 40 percent of his business due to the weak economy and continued housing crisis. He said he paid the owner his outstanding rent balance the week before, aside from a $100 dispute, when the deputies came knocking. The eviction team removed all their belongings from the house and changed the lock. |
