A person who wants to cause trouble will always find a reason
While some no doubt held the man in the story responsible for having a clearly mentally ill woman held, it’s worth noting that those present actually have all the facts. Unlike random folks on the internet, the authorities deemed her a big enough risk to intervene. Perhaps it’s not the best outcome, but this woman is clearly a risk to people around her. It can be hard to tellbad intentionsfrom a distance, particularly from a “harmless” looking person, but results speak for themselves.
For example, no rationally thinking person will conclude that a man cleaning his underwear in the communal washing machine is an act of perversion. Indeed, deciding to not clean them and just walk around like a human stink bomb is a lot worse. However, if this old lady wanted to start some drama, she would have found a way, underwear or no.Harassmentisn’t always proportional to the degree of dislike someone might have.
After being told to mind her business, she immediately went vigilante-mode and destroyed the man’s laundry. This point is another piece of evidence that she is a risk to those around her. Imagine you encounter an actual pervert in your building, someone you catch in the act. Most folks would contact the authorities or get help. While agency is often a good thing, this does show that this woman is ready and willing to do real damage to people if she feels slighted.

Getting out of this living situation was the best option
This way, she is at least sometimes under some supervision and not being unleashed on the wider public. Given the response of the police, it would appear that this is the first time someone has called the authorities on this woman. Unless there are some significant changes, someone else will end up finding bleach in their laundry or worse. All in all, cutting one’s losses and getting out now is the sensible option. Particularly hot off the heels of this event, where the landlord has few options to complain.
Naturally, the optics of the situation perhaps made the man second-guess his decision. Maybe some thoughtcalling the policewas too much, perhaps the daughter’s arguments started to sway him. Fortunately, folks online helped him set the record straight. Getting out of this apartment now, when all he has lost is a set of laundry is the absolute best bet.
