Somehow, I doubt that very much. They moved on, probably because management got in trouble with the law for the actions of the tenant. The management then went and confronted the tenant so THEY themselves would not get into trouble deeper. When confronted with management, they probably left angry and didn't learn anything. Next place they landed, they did the same thing.
We ran into someone who was beating and kicking (yes, I'm not kidding) their dog across the road from us when camping earlier this year. My wife (trouble maker she is... scared the bee-hee-bee-jees out of me) went running over and confronted the man and threatened to call the police on him (and she would have). He argued with her, and I do think that is the ONLY time in my life I wish I would have had my shot gun with me! (never carry a fire arm, but have them).
So she angrely returned to our camper, the dog owner chilled with the dog, his wife talked to him and he stayed away from the dog the rest of the time.... until ...
They were breaking camp (tent campers), and the last thing in the car was the dog. He grabbed the dog by the rope, yanked him, the dog yelped, and literally drug the dog and threw it in the car! We were mortified. He drove out of the campsite, spun his tires, and give us "the finger!".... really! We were shocked at such behavior!
Nah, mr.ed, they didn't learn anything. They just moved on.
