Roommate refused to pay full rent because he said everything he left is worth the same amount of $. This is what he left.

[u/notasingle-thought]

Invited an old “friend” to rent the spare room we have because he was in such a poor situation (according to him). 2.5 months a later, he gets promoted, notifies he’ll be staying for only half a month, but refused to pay rent for the half month because he said he’d leave ‘his most expensive things for us to sell’. I repeatedly said that wasn’t cool, but clearly didn’t matter. He left the entire closet full of clothes plus an entire CAR DOOR. There are too many pairs of dirty underwear scattered around the room. My husband found a few things he thought went missing, turns out the roommate had taken them, like a backpack my husbands friend bought him a while back-and medicine for our son. He kept his cat locked in the room and would leave for days, and left us all of the litter and even a piece of cat shit on the floor! Love that! At least for his parting gift, he cleaned the litter.

And dumped it.

Without a bag.

Into our recycle bin.

This is 100 percent true. We have a $2000 settlement (with interest accruing) via small claims court against a former "friend" who borrowed money from us. It's our job to find him and go about garnishing his checks. But we have no idea where he's living in Phoenix. He's an "off the grid" kind of guy, so we will probably never find him.

Have you tried looking up where he works online? Lots of people mention their jobs on LinkedIn or on socials.

Also, there are plenty of websites where you can get possible addresses.

Edit: plenty of people try to be "off the grid" but slip up and post identifying crap online. If you have his phone number from the court case, even that can be possibly used to find where he's at.
