I think the key word is “foreclosed” property. If it is already bank owned, then yes. If they haven’t foreclosed yet and they trash the place before they move, before it is “bank” owned, then I’m having trouble understanding how they can be charged w/vandalizing their own property. Particularly something like removing appliances. Suppose they purchased those appliances at Sears or something. Appliances don’t always convey w/the house.

Again, not justifying what the jerk did. He did what many others did. I’m just pissed b/c he makes other cops look bad. Realtor wife doing this, sure. That doesn’t surprise me. More than a few bad apples in that bunch.
