Mortgage Firm Allegedly Ransacks Florida Home

Chris Boudreau of Brooksville, Fla., says he is the unwilling recipient of a home makeover, courtesy of his mortgage company.

21st Mortgage Corporation, which says on its website that it is a Berkshire Hathaway company, allegedly hired a private firm to ransack and clean out Boudreau's home, according to WTSP 10 News. They reportedly took out his sofa, tables, television, DVD player, tapes and cabinets. They even shredded Mrs. Boudreau's wedding dress, her husband claims.

"When she saw what happened, she actually went into the dumpster trying to go through the stuff," Chris Boudreau told the news station. "She was crying her eyes out."

According to WTSP, Boudreau had fallen slightly behind on his mortgage payments, prompting the mortgage company to take independent action.
