A client of ours -- a small, not-for-profit, economic justice organization [EJO] -- used social network analysis [SNA] to assist their city attorney in convicting a group of "slumlords" of various housing violations that the real estate investors had been side-stepping for years. The housing violations, in multiple buildings, included:
- raw sewage leaks
- multiple tenant children with high lead levels
- eviction of complaining tenants
- utility liens of six figures
