A Million Foreclosure Stories -- Here is one in Seattle.

My partner Doug says my crowd estimate was way off.  He says there were 40 people there.  I stand corrected!  

A few of the 20 or so folks who showed up to defend Jeremy's house from eviction today (7/31/13), on very short notice.

Lauren, Josh and Dorli explain the "surreal" circumstances surrounding their arrest by the king county sheriff.  They had tried to keep him from locking Jeremy out of his house.

Jeremy and people from Safe in Seattle (Josh, Dorli, Lauren & Kshama) who got arrested (and released shortly thereafter) defending his house.  Also included is David Griffith, reporter from KBCS.

Jeremy's house was locked up by the sheriff, after a months-long struggle.   Jeremy got his stuff and has a place to stay, but he has lost his home of eight years.  His story, which includes him trying everything to give the bank his payments, is here:  http://www.seattleweekly.com/news/thedailyweekly/946950-129/says-griffin-bank-fargo-wells-money

Remember, we are all in this together.
