All I know is that it's very hard to get someone thrown out in NYC, especially now. My friend called the cops on him multiple times when he was smoking meth/crack, but he knows the system. He burns a lot of incents to cover it up, and told the cops it was just that. My friend told the police to check his room, and the cops said unfortunately, they can't without consent.

Thank you for the reply, much appreciated.
