Can I Legally Break My Lease Due to Other Tenant’s Drug Use?
Question by Evie: Can I legally break my lease due to other tenant’s drug use?
I signed a one year lease less than a month ago (Missouri). I went with this place because it was a non-smoking property right next to the local police department.
After moving in, however, there is a heavy odor of marijuana in the stairwell and it even permeates my apartment (almost daily).
I have brought this issue to the attention of my landlord twice with no resolve. Since I am in the military, I’m concerned about being around this type of behavior.
Can I break my lease without financial loss? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

No, you cannot break you lease for that. If you can find where it is coming from, you could complain to the landlord again.

Columbia Missouri SWAT team – Shoots “restrained” dogs in front of child, 2-11-2010 – A (Graphic) video of a Columbia Missouri SWAT narcotics raid. After officers stormed into a house, shooting one family pet dog and killing another in front of a small child, only to discover an insignificantly small amount of marijuana. The incident provides a compelling example of how the phony war on drugs in America operates and how we do live in a police state. I can only imagine what this fellow and his family will feel about this in the years ahead. You can bet , without anyone standing up to this now it will only get worse. You think this can’t happen to you? It happens about 1000 times a week now and rising according to published reports – you think things in this country are still normal?
