I am not sure what you are seeking to find out. Miami is a big city and is in an even larger metropolitan area. You can certainly avoid him if you were to return.

When you say he could not keep his hands off of you, I presume he did things that you are now wanting to be compensated for. Although you might be able to file a complaint with the police, without knowing more about what happened, I cannot say what if any rights you might have for damages against him. Of course, he would argue you could have vacated the premises earlier if you felt he violated your personal rights.
