Bank clears out home mistaken for a foreclosure

This is not uncommon. Hawaii has had its share of the same intrusion. People are becoming housebound – afraid to leave for fear their home will disappear while they are gone to the grocery.

It’s better than keeping your money in the bank… Because YOU DO NOT HAVE TO BE IN FORECLOSURE to get raided. And how do you compensate a family for the loss of their family treasures? Maybe when the police realize that their pension funds have been lost because these banks pulled a Ponzi scheme and their fund managers gambled away their retirement… Maybe then America will get the protection it needs. This was the bank’s fault – not the people across the street! The bank probably doesn’t even own the house across the street.

Two dressers and clothing for her five children were taken, as well as items from outside their home…
