    Default Threatened With Charges For Damage To Apartment

    My question involves criminal law for the state of: Indiana

    I recently had a spat with my landlords, over one of them selling meth to my now ex. we were living together for sometime about 4 years and 1 with these slumlords. This apartment was in desrepair when we moved in the walls were coming apart there was no aircondition no stove no hot water no heat on several occasions the landlord shot up in our apartment against my approval. We just needed a place to stay and had no credit and this was the only place we could find.

    One night my wifey didnt come home and i caught the landlord dropping her off where they told me there was a meth lab and she didnt come home.
    I went off. I punched the wall leaving a baseball sized hole and wrote on the wall in three places "you left me for dope"
    I lost the dog and " I really loved you would have done anything for you". Nothing huge that couldnt be fixed with a can of paint I offered to give them.
    I felt really bad about it so i've been offering to pay them for the "hole" i punched in the wall. They are trying to make me pay for damages I did not do. They are telling me theres more than that and are threating to prosecute me. I have received about 80 messages from them, and I have sent them messages back trying to work something out. They have sent me pictures of damages i havent done. And are threating to have me prosecuted. Besides that someone has been accessing my email besides me and it could only be my ex. I had to change my account. Im afraid they are trying to get at me.. because i told the landlords girlfriend whats been going on and I gave her the pipe her lover gave my wife. I lost my wife and son over this. And have been trying to do the right thing. Could you please help me and let me know what my options are here?

    That sucks, really sorry to hear about that. Did yo sign a lease, put a deposit down, or have any kind of contract? How much is he saying you owe him?

    Also, turn his ass in to the cops. Cops love to get free tips on people.

    No it's not a guy shes a lesbian and I did sign a lease. I tryed turning her into the police and even reporting the meth lab. I live in the meth capital of the united states. The police havent done anything except they let me go when the landlords tryed bringing them to arrest me but that was b4 they saw the apt.. Still if they turn all this stuff over to the prosecutor Im hit. I dont know what to do. Im trying to work something out with them.
    They agreed to let me supply the things neccesarry to fix the damage but... theres more damage than i did

    You left your son behind with a meth addict that doesn't come home at night?

    If you've adopted him, you're his legal parent.

    Is there a purpose of your repeated messages to them, other than documenting your responsibility for the damage in the event that they choose to prosecute you?

    Take the pictures to a licensed contractor and get a written estimate for repair, then offer to pay your landlord that amount or to pay the contractor to do the repairs. See if that takes care of their demands.
