Tenants From Hell Turn Themselves In After Abandoning 50 Pets In Rented Duplex; Accused Of Serially Trashing At Least 3 Rented Homes In One Year

In Broward County, Florida, WTVJ-TV Channel 6 reports:

• Police arrest two women after dozens of dogs were found abandoned and living in filth and a rental home was discovered ruined with animal feces. Detectives called 44-year-old Ann Centofanti and her daughter 24-year-old Ann Hesse-Centofanti serial home destroyers. On Sunday, police found 46 dogs and three cats abandoned and living in filth inside a home in Oakland Park. Cleanup crews found another dog hiding in a closet on Tuesday. The Centofantis were arrested on Tuesday as they had just moved into a home in Fort Lauderdale. Detectives said they were on their way to trashing that home, too.

The Miami Herald reported that, in the last 12 months, these tenants "went through at least three other homes, two of which needed to be completely gutted, and their pooch collection topped out at 63 before they called it quits, according to neighbors, landlords and the Broward Sheriff's Office." In their most recent rental trashing, the home "was so filled with waste deputies needed to wear hazmat suits to enter, BSO said." For more, see:
