Come down and show some support for a long-time member of the SF Goth community.
You may know Leyla from Twilight Zone, House of Usher, Roderick's Chamber, Assimilate, A Winter Gone By, Shrine of Lilith, Catacombs, Death Guild, Meat, or Strangelove.
For 12 years, Leyla has lived in the same apartment in Western Addition. 5 years ago, she accepted Jamahl as her roommate, and 2 years ago Jamahl allowed his mother and brother to move in to his bedroom. They lived there RENT FREE, and quickly destroyed the apartment and any semblance of peace. The mother, a particularly nasty woman, would turn her speakers towards Leyla's wall and crank music, lock herself in the bathroom for hours if she knew Leyla had to go to work, and even PEED ON HER TOOTHBRUSH. As master tenant, Leyla tried to have them evicted, but they claimed squatter's rights and wouldn't budge.
In November, Leyla was arrested for "Threat Crime" for saying she wanted to kill her rooommate's mother. She spent 2 weeks in jail before friends could bail her out. Leyla gave up her rent-controlled apartment, and friends moved all of her belongings into storage. She has been broke and homeless ever since, and recently accepted a plea-bargain of "Attempted Threat" so she can finally move on. She'll soon leave for the Mid-West to spend time with her ailing father (who is fighting cancer for the 3rd time).
We hope to raise $$$ for her to pay off bail debt and cover some travel expenses. This will also be the last chance for many of us to wish her well.
