Police never found the man who in 2008 broke into a Fort Lauderdale mobile home, marched a young woman outside at gunpoint and raped her in a wooded area in the trailer park — but she still won some measure of justice.

Amanda Slone heard from the Haggard Law Firm, a group of Coral Gables attorneys dedicated to filing negligent security lawsuits against those responsible for crime-riddled properties. She agreed to sue the trailer park, which had seen a stabbing, a shooting, an attempted sexual assault and an attempted abduction in a span of a few years. A jury awarded her $1.6 million.
