The day began with tenants trying to recover their belongings but that stopped when police arrived. The house has been deemed unsafe on its way to being condemned. From the back you can see the scaffolding and tarps that were once hallways and living areas.

"It's a nightmare. This whole thing has been one big nightmare. I can thank the manager for the majority of that, Daniel Cunningham," said Harold Foust, tenant.

Daniel Cunningham is the guy who wears socks on his hands. He was a chiropractor and has run repeatedly for mayor and governor and formed his own Free Energy Party.

"The Free Energy Party is of the technical reality of having free electricity," said Cunningham in 1992 during a candidate debate on Olelo.

Tenants allowed that guy to inject them with his own mystery medicine claiming it would cure their problems maybe even give them eternal life.

"I've walked in on injections where he's been injected himself and it's not a pretty sight," said Foust.

"That was crazy. I used to tell him that is crazy, you not no doctor, that is crazy," said McKinley Johnson, tenant.

Not everyone who lived in the house is mad at Daniel Cunningham, in fact one man says his mystery injections actually worked and relieved pain in his arthritic knee. The man, who didn't want his name revealed, says he didn't have health insurance or money so he tried Cunningham's cure. When it worked he had four injections in one year.

Still the majority of the tenants disagree. They plan to sue Cunningham and have already met with a lawyer.

"I've seen a lot of crazy and seen a lot of weird things and this is easily right up there with them," said Chris Dias, Schutter Dias & Smith, who plans to represent the tenants.

Dias says criminally the unauthorized practice of medicine is only a misdemeanor but civilly there is a case and they may also be able to collect on the dangerous living conditions.

"In the imperfect system that is our legal system these claims translate into money for any harm they suffered," says Dias.

Which means the tenant's Cunningham always hounded for money will now be returning the favor.

I did speak with Cunningham on the phone, he stands by his medicine that it eases pain and "continues life indefinitely." He also says he only gave the injections to people who wanted it.
