If you can prove it, you can follow the procedures in FS 83 to have the problem corrected or terminate.

NOTE: This communication is not intended as and should not be interpreted as legal advice. Rather, it is intended solely as a general discussion of legal principles. You should not rely on or take action based on this communication without first presenting ALL relevant details to a competent attorney in your jurisdiction and then receiving the attorney's individualized advice for you. By reading the "Response" to your question or comment, you agree that the opinion expressed is not intended to, nor does it, create any attorney-client relationship, nor does it constitute legal advice to any person reviewing such information, nor will it be considered an attorney-client privileged communication. If you do not agree, then stop right here, and do not read any further.

Since I do not know the landlord or the management company, I cannot give any legal advice as it could be a conflict of interest for me. I would suggest that this is not a problem with the managment, however, but rather a police matter. You need to keep calling them until they resolve the problem. While not doubting your honestly, if every person could simply say that they have a problem with an unsubstantiated crime and that would give them a legal right to break a lease, then there would be no point in having leases as they would be unenforceable. Also, you should put covers or shades on the windows so that nobody could look into your apartment as most people do.
