Basque Woman Forced to Flee Own Home After Migrant Squatter Stops Paying Rent, Breaks Furniture, and Calls Her a ‘Whore’ - American Renaissance
Racial altruism doesn't pays off.

"Estíbaliz Kortazar, who initially rented a room to the man in a spirit of solidarity, has now been forced to abandon her own house out of fear.
“I met him through an organization that helps the homeless,” Estíbaliz told 20minutos. The man, a 48-year-old foreign national, agreed to pay €350 a month and initially honored the agreement. But after the informal contract ended at the end of last year, he refused to move out. By February, he had stopped paying rent altogether. Even before that, Estíbaliz says, the situation had become intolerable.
“He would take all my cooking pots into his room and leave nothing for me to use,” she said. “He turned up the television at midnight so I couldn’t sleep, he broke my furniture, he called me a slut, a dirty bitch, and a whore.” She says the man also tampered with the door locks, allowing himself to come and go at will while denying her full access to her own home.
Estíbaliz, a teacher who works online, said the squatter deliberately disrupted her lessons and left common areas in a state of filth. As utility bills soared, she grew convinced the man’s goal was to financially and psychologically break her.
She filed a complaint with the authorities, but was told the only real option was to keep reporting the matter. By January 2025, she had launched formal legal proceedings. In March, a court issued an eviction order, but due to Spain’s Decree 11/2020 — emergency legislation introduced during the pandemic to protect vulnerable tenants — the eviction was suspended until the end of 2025.
Unable to continue living with the man, Estíbaliz moved in with her brother in June and is currently on medical leave, undergoing psychological treatment. “He’s a psychopath, and his only goal is to ruin my life,” she said. “He’s not right in the head. He hasn’t attacked me yet, but I’m afraid he might.”
lol.
