I was 22 and working as a paraprofessional at an elementary school in Boise, Idaho, earning $9 an hour. We had met one night when her dog, a Rottweiler mix, ran up to play with my dog, Gaspard, a Labrador husky. Our neighbors initially had minor noise complaints, but things escalated when my roommate started having her friends over. They would get drunk, play rowdy games of Ping-Pong and blast music late into the night. Our neighbors were fed up with the situation and filed formal complaints with our management company to have us evicted.
