Exactly. As a retired investigative reporter, that was my first thought. Why has no one tracked them down and asked them exactly what you mention.
If they rented out their home during the most 'livable' months of the year - WHY?
Have they done it before?
Did they know who they were renting too and why?
Were they paid a higher that normal rent for the area?
We want to know if THEY are sleazeballs too.
I suspicion they are by their silence. They haven't come forth to explain, which one would think they would had they been snookered.
I bet someone other than him leased the house.
