I've shared some of the antics that my neighbors have pulled recently but I don't think I've shared this story with you. Back in 1995 we lived at Mark Twain Apartments and Ken was the maintenance man for the apartment complex. We lived there for a few years but when Ken had to have his ankle operated on, the manager brought in a replacement maintenance man until Ken was able to work again. That's where the story gets crazy. The manager, Lori hired Gregory Leonard and he came over to our apartment all the time to get tips from Ken about the apartment complex and where things were kept in the maintenance shop, we even had him over for dinner a few times.
So it was a real shock when he was arrested for murder. The police found a body hidden under his bed.
You can read the whole story here.
So you see, I've always had crazy neighbors no matter where I've lived.

Holy crap! That IS crazy!
ReplyDeleteIt was hard to believe at first.
DeleteSeriously, you do have the darnedest luck with neighbors. I need to head over for the rest of that story. Glad he liked you guys.
ReplyDeleteI know, right? We liked him too. It was the strangest thing.
DeleteOMG, that is some scary sh*t! Did he seem creepy or shady to you? What was the motive?
ReplyDeleteHonestly, I always thought neighbors were strange when I lived in apartments. Though it might just be that you notice it more due to the proximity!
He seemed like a normal guy.
DeleteHoly shit that's crazy. That is some serial killer type of story. Keeping a person under the bed. Crazy.

Deletelmao wow, that is beyond crazy. My worst was a creepy old fart, no murderers that I know of.
ReplyDeleteRight? It was a crazy time.
DeleteWow, that's crazy. But you never know about people.
ReplyDeleteThat's one thing I've learned for sure.
DeleteUnder the bed? That's for playboys and money, what an idiot
ReplyDeleteLOL he wasn't too smart.
DeleteOkay, I've always joked about how horrible my neighbors are, but I could never match that. That is insane! I guess you never really can tell what someone's capable of just by talking to them, can you?
ReplyDeleteNo you really can't. He seemed like a nice guy.
DeleteMary you need to write a book about your complex...LOL That is just freaky.
ReplyDeleteThis was even a different complex than the one we live in now. People are crazy everywhere. lol
DeleteWow! That's crazy! You never know right? Reminds me of when I worked at the YMCA as a kid, and we found out the maintenance man, who was gorgeous by the way-lol, was robbing banks.
ReplyDeleteWow, you just never know about someone.
