Mysterious Chemical House


In Klamath, Oregon, the Hankin's family purchased a home that was recently foreclosed, not knowing it was poisonous. After a few days of moving into the small, $36,000 house, the family, including a two year old boy, started to experience health problems. The mother, Beth Hankins started to develop breathing problems. Two weeks later, the father, Johnathan Hankins, showed signs of severe migraines and nosebleeds. Shortly after, their son developed mouth sores that were so severe, he had difficulty drinking. Finally, their neighbor spoke up and notified them that the Hankin's "perfect house", used to be a meth house,  with a contamination level way above Oregon's health authority limits. Disappointed, the family moved out and asked why weren't they informed. The family warns the public who are looking to buy foreclosed homes to check the background of the house before they buy.

  1. Why wouldn't someone tell them that the house was contaminated and unhealthy? Why did it take so long for the neighbor to stand up and say something?

  2. Number one, awesome pic, number two this kind of sounds like a stupid scary movie, but in all reality the only people you can blame it on is the people that bought the house, they should've asked about it more, but the relator should've also known this

  3. This is stupid/sad... They should have been told. its not like when you buy a house the first thing your going to ask is 'was this a meth house?' I don't think that will be at the top of your head while buying the perfect house. They should have been told.
