Susan, S16.E09, New 12/2/2024 Season 16 / Episode 09 (Season Finale) (Another episode from Hoarders Canada). Susan is a single mother with six children. She's been a mom since she was 16, and it's what she likes to do best. But it's taking a toll on her house--and her mental health. She spends her days in bed, avoiding the mountains of dirty laundry. Susan lives in Lake Charlotte, Nova Scotia. Place is piled shoulder high, some pathways Her bearded dragons have decent conditions, better than Susan in living in. When her brother died in 2014, she took his four sons in to raise. Oldest son Chase appears, also brother Levi, and a daughter. Her sister Terri appears too. Susan lost her job, and supports her family with health insurance (I have no idea what that means). Susan got pregnant at 16, raising her son alone, she married at 27, and had a daughter. Daughter says mother will rehoard immediately. There's a small table where they eat. There are mounds of laundry, clean and dirty. Susan avoids everything. I'm so concerned for the psychologist Natasha, she's pregnant and exposing herself to a house that is probably full of vermin. Psychologist is Natasha Sharma, organizer is Julio. Sister Terri, and daughter Nicky, show up for the clean up. Daughter says she didn't grow up in this hoarded house, but a previous house that was also full of junk. There are no working smoke detectors. Sister Terri who was a volunteer firefighter for 25 years is disgusted by the missing smoke alarms, and the danger to the sons and Susan in case of fire. Terri was going through a tough divorce, and Susan took her dogs in, and some items to sell and Susan never sold any of the items. Part of the ceiling has a water leak, and there is black mold. Daughter thinks Susan won't be changed. Day One-Fortunately, Susan has a large yard for organizing. Susan is already keeping at least 80%, including broken and useless shoes. Nicky is having trouble discarding things too, because her mother won't like it. Susan't bedroom had garbage underneath the piles, and lots of mouse poop. Sorting the clothes is going slowly. Susan doesn't care about mouse feces everywhere, or the missing smoke alarms. Susan says it's one mouse, it's never one mouse. Day Two-I really like the organizer and cleaner Julio. Julio has an exterminator visit. Exterminator says top priority is blocking mouse access into the house, and one way doors on mouse entry points so they leave and can't come back in. Susan is getting angry at Chase and Nicky making decisions for her. Daughter Nicky is having a hard time getting rid of anything because her mother fights her on everything. Julio brings an appraiser to look at her vinyl collection, old radio, record player. Appraiser says $1500 to $2000 for all of the collection, then Susan drops a bomb, and says she's keeping it all for the kids inheritance. Daughter Nicky is overwhelmed with the whole process, and lack of progress, so Natasha talks with her. Day Three-Still hopeless. She refuses to get of anything that's not in a complete set until it's all together. Susan makes zero sense. This clean up is a failure, and a waste of time. Natasha has Nicky tell her mother about her feelings about the failing cleanup. Susan claims to understand, but she really doesn't. In the final hours Susan is moving at a snail's pace. Remaining items Susan didn't get to will be stored, so she can look through them during aftercare (no, I don't believe she's going to get rid of anything.) The poor house cleaning crew has a tremendous job to do. House looks nice, but you know it won't stay that way. I hope that's new furniture, not mouse poop furniture. Susan still needs to go through the clothing piles after they're cleaned and returned, and claims she'll get rid of a lot. Bedrooms still have storage bins of stuff. The moldy ceiling was removed and fixed. Epilogue-Susan agreed to aftercare, and is working through the remaining boxes. She claims she goes shopping less, and only buys what she needs. (My guess is Susan will keep everything, and churn endlessly, and just use aftercare to whine about everyone stealing her stuff, and being mean to her. I don't believe she only buys what she needs). Jim and Susan, Rerun, Season 3 / Episode 15, 12/06/2010 After decades of hoarding, Jim is estranged from his siblings and children. Susan’s towering hoard has forced Susan and her husband out of their home. Hoarders Coming Clean: Tim (Season 12, Episode 6, 2021) in Citrus Heights, California, sees the value in repurposing and using materials for all types of projects, which has led him to collect a massive amount of clutter over the years.Tim has hoarded two houses, and over half an acre of property. From the original episode thread : 52 years of junk, two houses across the street from each other, and a half acre of junk. Another car hoarder. Tell me he's lived there 52 years, not that he's 52, because he looks 72. OK, must be older because he's been married 52 years. I bet Code Enforcement hates him. I feel so sorry for his neighbors. That aerial view that shows that green, stagnant pool is a health hazard. I wish code enforcement would toss him out, bulldoze both houses, and throw it all in a dumpster. His brother will say they have a good relationship, and then the cleanup starts, and the mean person comes out. The nephew has been living there for a long time, wonder what his back story is? Tim might be smart, but the smart hoarders seem to be the most stubborn, and mean hoarders too. A 4,000 sq ft home packed full. So now he's blaming it on the wife, and claiming she can't say what she feels. Another one who thinks their junk is worth so much, and the auction house rep won't take anything. Zasio was the therapist, and Tim is also a therapist. Even the second house where the nephew lives is piled to the ceiling, with a tiny trail to the kitchen. Tim also claims the wife went into a catatonic state years ago, and he says she's still fragile. He's such a bully to her, under the guise of protecting her. Tim is 76. The family thinks Zasio will help them? When the wife refuses to speak up, then Zasio can't get her to. TIme cleans out virtually nothing, except some in the main house with a living room and kitchen. Yards are still mostly full. No surprise Tim regrets cleaning anything out. Cory has an update about hoarders, and how difficult Tim was. Hoarders Coming Clean: Eric was standing in the kitchen at the beginning, bragging that if they took everything out of his kitchen, he could turn in back into a garbage dump in five days. He started hoarding before his wife got sick, and I don't think he'll ever keep the house cleared out. (Season 12, Episode 1, 2021) The ending said that over 200 boxes were stored in the garage, attic, sunroom, and other places after the clean up. I bet he was opening boxes, and piling stuff up downstairs before the crew was out of sight. The ending was that the family will come over soon, and have a little celebration with Eric. His wife died two years ago, and supposedly that was when the hoarding went wild. My guess is the attic, and any other storage areas were chock full long before the wife died. The sister or sister-in-law said that the last time the dining room was clean was a when her adult kids were 10 to 14, and they're one of them is almost 30, so another lying hoarder. I suspect that even though Eric claimed the wife didn't allow him to hoard, then I'm betting there were a couple of clean rooms, but only where the wife stayed. Sadly Zasio revisited Eric on a Where Are They Now (I think last season), and he has rehoarded everything since the episode was filmed, I think 2 or 3 years ago.

I totally forgot this one until Discovery Life showed the rerun today. Partner Tim was very supportive. She really succeeded at the end, but it wasn't a total success. She has a follow up episode too, with Pauline.

He's just lucky others goofed more than he has.

There are a lot of ways to get huge amounts of pain pills. (I've live near too many pharmacies and pain pill clinics that were busted by the DEA). 2 December “Trust Me” New, Season 11, Episode 56 (Abraham Garcia vs. Susan Garcia) Garcia From the show site: A brother claims his sister is denying their mother's last wishes by withholding rent she collected on the house they inherited. But the sister claims she incurred costs for twenty months while a squatter paid zero rent - and besides, the brother signed a quit claim deed, which means he no longer has an interest in the property. Does she owe him anything? Plaintiff/brother Abraham Garcia suing defendant/sister Susan Garcia for rent on a house they inherited. Suing for $5,000. Defendant countersuing for $5,000 for money owed by brother on the house, and that brother signed a quit claim to her. However, defendant says she got stuck with costs for twenty months when a squatter was in the house, and her brother signed a quit claim deed so he no longer has any claim to the property. Sister was given an additional 10% because she helped mother fix up the house. So, house was 60/40. Younger brother was a squatter for 20 months, and defendant paid everything to keep house up, $27,000 paid by defendant. Then plaintiff brother wrote the quit claim on the house. Corriero has to explain quit claim in excruciating detail, then plaintiff has a statement that is ridiculous. Defendant wants to sell house after this is settled, because another brother sued her and lost over the house already. Plaintiff claims he spent $40k fixing the house up, but says it was a gift, along with remodeling the house. Plaintiff claims defendant lied to him about creditors suing over the mother's house, so he signed the quit claim. Defendant says the quit claim was to get the squatter brother's threats over the house to stop. Plaintiff and defendant argue over who prepared the quit claim. Corriero explains quit claim to plaintiff again, and he's pretty ticked about it. Plaintiff case dismissed, he has no case. Defendant case dismissed, too late. “Wedding Faux-tographer” Rerun, Season 10, Episode 111 p. 47, 25 March 2024

Yes, Justin, his Where are they Now was combined with Maja from Oregon. They pair a train wreck with a success story. Justin took his new chance at a healthy life with doing all of the things he wanted to do and never could. Learning to fly, kajaking, and I think skydiving.

27 November (Unfortunately, my channel that runs this is out of service, bet it comes back about 2:30 when the episode's over. Just as I expected, channel came back right at 2:30). “The Opioid Odyssey” New, Season 11, Episode 55 ( vs. ) From the show site: A woman says she lent her van to a friend for some errands, but it was never returned; the "friend" says she made a down payment of $1,300 worth of pain pills to purchase the van, and therefore she couldn't "steal" something that belonged to her. Plaintiff wants to be paid by defendant for the van she loaned her. Suing for $ . However, defendant said she paid a down payment of $1,300 in pain pills to purchase the van, and owes nothing. Please tell me the local drug task force saw this episode. Plaintiff says defendant had the van for three months, there was damage, two new tires that were trashed, and the new battery was switched out for a bad battery. Plaintiff has the title, and the van. Defendant is counter claiming for $5,000 for property in the van, including prescriptions, and all kinds of stuff. Plaintiff claims she bagged everything up, and left it on defendant's porch and told her where it was. Plaintiff has photos showing what was in the van at the time of the repo. Judges dismiss both cases, because they were stupid, and no proof of anything. Judge T also said using illegally obtained drugs isn't legal tender. I managed to find some parts of the case on FB, so saw it without the commercials.
