This looks like a humanitarian crisis to me.
Guess I should have put half a sarcasm tag.
Sad times when sarcasm can be reality. I normally can detect sarcasm without the tag!
Unfortunately, she has an employment claim of some kind. It is more complicated than being a single lodger.
would it be illegal to move someone else in? I am thinking someone with neck tattoos... what could possibly go wrong?
i would be afraid that he and the nanny would hook up...
Time to Gaslight her. Starting at night pump white noise into her room. Or a Tape of Rabbits being killed. Maybe stomping outside her room and jiggling the doorknobs a few times. Remove all food except stuff like Oatmeal. Don’t let her sleep. after a few weeks.....she will be begging to leave.
And the rightful owners are sued for compensatory...and punitive...damages and by the time the dust has settled the *parasite* winds up owning the house.
Those are good points. It seems that using a reputable employment agency would be safer.
