Bad Neighbors – The Pen Hustle With Brandy Cavalli

Now streaming on Netflix, The Perfect Neighbor explores a tight-knit community experiencing relentless harassment by a neighbor whose hostility escalates into a fatal crime.

This chilling documentary chronicles the events leading up to the murder of Florida mother Ajike Owens who was horrifically gunned down by a “Karen” neighbor and exposes the consequences of Florida’s Stand Your Ground law.

The Stand Your Ground law is extremely controversial because it pretty much gives someone the license to kill. The law is intended to allow people the right to defend themselves with deadly force if “in fear for their life,” but it’s nearly impossible to truly gage someone’s accurate fear level at the time of an incident putting the legitimacy of the law into question.

Hustlers,

It’s time for new episodes of one of my favorite true crime shows ever. Fear Thy Neighbor.

If you’re a self proclaimed true crime junkie and you’ve never watched this series, please do yourself a huge favor and binge watch it. The first season was my favorite.

This show reminds us that you don’t always have to be the one to move next to a toxic neighbor. They can also end up moving next to you. I’m actually hoping to pitch a friend’s story for a feature on the show. He, like all the people featured in the series, died at the hands of an unhinged neighbor over what started as a regular dispute. It’s just another testament to how quickly things can go left.

Check out the trailer below. I watch it on the Philo app on Roku.
