It doesn't suprise me. That sort of thing happens all the time, not necessarily drug related just paid to turn a blind eye to corner cutting. We have all sorts of code violation down here. Improper fire walls, material coverings, etc. Look at this deck collapse that occured during the firemens convention in 2019. This deck managed to stay staning for about twenty years before it came apart.

This was an old rooming house converted to Condos. Tell me what you see.

Hint #1. Look where the deck came free from the building.

Hint #2. Look at the decking.

Hint #3. Look under the decking.
