Charles and Charmaine Allman lived in the same Stone Mountain, Ga. home — located 16 miles east of Atlanta — for the last two decades before officials told the couple Tuesday that they no longer owned the house and had to vacate.

“They made us feel like we were squatters,” Charmaine Allman told WSB-TV. “Just tossed my stuff out like it was trash.”

Most of the couple’s belongings were scattered all over the yard.

The outlet reported that an anonymous man allegedly falsified a deed and submitted the documents online with Dekalb County to claim ownership of the Allman’s home.

The new homeowner told the couple he had purchased the home from a foreclosure.

Charles Allman, who refused to leave when asked, was arrested on a Criminal Trespass warrant filed on March 13, according to jail records viewed by The Post.

“I don’t know how this is possible,” Charmaine Allman about her husband’s arrest. “How does this happen, period? It’s very upsetting to see my husband in handcuffs at 77 years old and placed in the car because he didn’t want to leave his home. He has nowhere to go. No family.”

Charles Allman was released from jail Thursday evening.[/quote]

It is maddening. And in Georgia, the homeowner may have gotten off faster by just shooting the guy. [/quote]
