Adam Shane Lester is a master of con-artistry. We offered him a place to stay when he arrived in New York in August and he accepted. He was told that the rent was $700 a month and he agreed. Every first of the month, he came up with some excuse as to why he didn't have his share. We gave him the benefit of the doubt and helped him out as much as we could.
We issued an eviction notice to him to have him out by February 10th. He assured us he would be ready to move and we trusted that. On Feb. 10th, he told us he was not in a financial state to find anywhere else to live. At that point, he replaced the door knob to his room with an actual dead-bolt. He has been living somewhere else, but has continued to keep his room locked with all of his belongings. The past month or two, he has made a few surprise visits to pick up a few things.
Not only are we NOT getting rent from him, but we can't even rent out his old room to someone who will pay rent because we can't get into his room. He is a clown for children's parties and should not be trusted with them because we found out later, that he's been using what was supposed to be his rent money to fund his marijuana habit. I seriously doubt any parent would want a clown for their children's parties who is constantly smoking marijuana.
