Getting out of a sublease — being threatened as well.?

Posted by Real Estate Investor on Jul 06 | Real Estate Investing Chatter

I rented a room from a mother and son who leased an apartment in a large south fla complex. While I was not on the original lease, they had me sign a sublease before moving in. When I found out that they were over charging me in order to profit, amongst other shady things, I moved out without their knowledge or notifying them in advance, out of fear of retaliation because I knew that they were tight on money. I wanted to avoid conflict and just get out of the situation.
Since then, the womans son has called me and said “im going to go see your pops and then you” which while it wasn’t a direct threat, we both know exactly what he means judging by the tone of voice, etc.
He also left me a text message saying that his mother had a panic attack because they don’t know how they are going to pay the rent and that if something happened to her “on my fathers grave, im coming for you”
He also left messages saying he was taking me to civil court because I signed the sublease and it was notarized.
However, I (anonymously) called the landlord today, and she specifically said that no sub leasing is allowed what so ever, and asked me who was doing it. When I told her, she repeated that no subleasing is around and that the company has a policy to backround check and pre screen all residents, and that under no circumstances do they allow subleasing. She said she was going to go talk to them.
I want to know if I am clear from having to worry about being taken to civil court.
I also want to know what to do about the threats. He has not made a direct threat besides the second one that I discussed.
I have heard that Fla has strange housing laws. I’m not sure whether or not his lease specifys subleasing because I have not seen a copy of it. However the landlord was VERY adamant that it is not allowed, though I also know they are not always correct when it comes to legal issues.
Any help would be appreciated. thanks., more

Is the landlord responsible to have working smoke detectors in the house being rented in Ohio?  Is the landlord responsible to have working smoke detectors in Ohio. I moved in and realized later that there was no smoke detectors and there was a fire. Luckily no one was injured but if it would have been in the middle of the night, it could have been another story as we have no smoke detectors. Is it a law they have to provide smoke detectors. This is a 4 bedroom single family house. Thanks, more
