We’ve all heard about Pruitt’s sweetheart $50 a night deal. (Youth hostels with bunk beds start at $80 a night.)

The couple, Vicki and Steve Hart, became so frustrated by their lingering tenant that they eventually pushed him out and changed their locks. After trying to nudge Pruitt out of their home over the course of several months, the Harts finally told Pruitt in July that they had plans to rent his room to another tenant.
