A friend of mine from Amsterdam recently got himself in a bit of a jam, so here's the run down...
He was a squatter, but since the Kraakverbod, he has moved into a group home with 2 ladies, one of them from France, and the other an Italian. Both these girls apparently have lazy boyfriends that like to loaf around the apartment, however they are not on the lease. The only ones on the lease are my friend and the 2 girls. While the Italian girls boy friend, owes the french lady 7000 Euro (how you accumulate a debt like that is beyond me, I would have cut his lazy a** off a long time ago).
My friends father pa**ed away some time ago, and left my friend with nothing but a wrist watch, which my friend values as one of his prize possessions. One day my friend came back from work, and found that his watch had been stolen. It was missing from where he kept it, and with the only guests in the house being these girl's 2 boyfriends, he immediately suspected the lazy Italian guy with the 7000 Euro debt.
Later on, the Italian lady and her boy friend were in the kitchen, and my friend went to confront her boyfriend the right way, giving him the opportunity to come clean, asking him if he had seen his fathers watch. His girlfriend went hysteric, slapping my friend in the face, shouting at him banalities like "are you accusing my boyfriend?!?", eventually launching her knee into my friends nuts. At which point he punched her in the face, to end the abuse.
I know you are not supposed to hit women, and I don't condone his actions. But now that he has blackened her eye, she has made her profile picture on facebook a picture of her with her black eye, and is telling everyone around town, that my friend hits women. Never actually addressing the fact that her boyfriend most likely stole his watch. Now my friend is getting all kinds of death threats from some Italian thugs, because this bitch is playing this situation to her advantage. What would you do?
