I am 3 months pregnant and moved into a house owned by a friend's girlfriend. I paid a deposit, first and last month's rent, and security in cash/cashier's checks totaling $5700. Despite moving in, I found a 'notice to pay rent or quit' on the door, and the house is still listed for sale. I have no contracts or receipts for my payments, and now my belongings have been moved to another house and held for ransom for $3500. I am homeless and broke. What are my legal options?

My mother and sister were wrongly convicted of a crime based on false evidence and manipulation of the jury, with inadequate representation from their public defenders and a distracted judge. The FBI agents involved in the investigation also committed perjury and failed to show due diligence. What steps can be taken to address these issues?
