These kinds of things don't only happen in California. And they don't only happen with AirBnB rentals for sure. Squatting is an age-old "tradition" and eviction laws exist to protect tenants from being unfairly thrown out of their apartments to make way for new tenants who pay higher rents. Unfortunately sometimes these laws go too far with their protections and end up shafting the landlord instead.
Seems like this was one extreme case with someone who has a history of abusing their status as a tenant. The things you learn when you go to Harvard. . .
