ACORN Thugs Break Into House (Video) (Updated And Bumped)

ABC 2 News, Baltimore, MD:

Some community activists could face criminal charges after breaking into a home in Southeast Baltimore.

[…)

After snapping a lock with bolt cutters, ACORN member Louis Beverly told supporters “this is our house now

 ACORN is wrong.  The house on Ellwood Avenue belongs to William Lane. 

The story could use some editting.   Even if you call a mob “some community activists”, they still a mob.   It not Civil Disobedience.    It is Breaking and Entering.

Video of same incidence:

Catch the bit about the house already having been resold. More than enough evidence to put these perps in jail.
?
More, Michelle.

Addendum I:

Promoted from comments, reader Sherry notes:

Thought you might be interested in some REAL information related to this foreclosure; Donna Hanks initially purchased her home (315 South Ellwood, Baltimore, MD 21224) on 7/06/2001 for $87,000. At some date between 2001 and 2006 she re-financed the original mortgage for the amount of $270,000 with a mortgage payment of $1,662.00. The FIRST foreclosure on this home was filed 5/31/2006. Donna Hanks filed for bankruptcy 6/16/06 during which a payment plan was approved for the $10,500 she was behind in her payments. This action stopped the original foreclosure. When she did not meet the terms of the bankruptcy re-payment, a second foreclosure action was started in January 2008. At the time she had not made her mortgage payments since September 2007. It should be noted that her salary per the bankruptcy paperwork was $1625 per month and she was working a 2nd and 3rd job (supposedly giving her an additional $1,275 in monthly income – the employers were not listed). Over extended? Also, during 2007 she was renting our her basement illegally (she was taken to court) and receiving rent while she was not making her mortgage payments. The mortgage company “raised” her payment $300 a month – right? Well, not exactly it was $340. The amount that she had agreed to pay back in arrears. Not exactly truthful, but what I would expect from a person with her criminal record (theft and assault 2nd degree and possession of a dangerous weapon with intent to injure). Oh and there is the small matter of breaking and entering. The house at 315 South Ellwood had already been sold at auction on 6/26/08 for $192,000. It just took them until September 2008 to get her out. Nothing like public information – it seems Acorn could have found this same information before they helped this “poor” victimized woman…………………

Left scratching my head.  Donna Hanks seems like a poor place to draw a line in the sand.   Even Barack Obama widely booed mortage relief plan would be  limited to homeowners who current in their payments, and would not have helped Hanks.

Then too, ACORN is itching for a fight with the banks.  Yet the bank no longer owns Hanks’ former property.  William Lane does.

Addendum II:  (updated and bumped)

Michelle does a massive, can we say Shock and Awe, document dump which both confirms and elaborates on Shelly’s pervious front line reporting.

It is not your home, ACORN.

Here is what the MSM won’t be telling you about the so-called “victim” in that case, ACORN worker Donna Hanks – all based on public records and court documents.

According to real property data search information, Hanks bought the two-story home in the summer of 2001 for $87,000. At some point in the next five years, she re-financed the original home loan for $270,000.

I”ll repeat myself, Donna Hanks seems like an awfully bad place for ACORN to have to drawn a line in the sand.   Let me see, Hanks buys the house for $87,000.   Re-financed the same house for $270,000.   Files for bankruptcy.   I am not a lawyer, but this smells like fraud to me.
