Olandis Hobbs, 37 was sentenced on Tuesday after being found guilty earlier this month of using false documents to take ownership of an approximately $700,000 condo in the Panama City Beach area, according to the State Attorney's Office of the 14th Judicial Circuit.
"I hope this sends a strong message," State Attorney Larry Basford said in a release. "Do not come to Northwest Florida and try to steal people's identifications and/or property by squatting because we will not tolerate this."
The property is legally owned by an 85-year-old woman and her children.
Hobbs has committed similar acts in other places, like New York, and he was sued but never arrested.
"This might be your first significant conviction, but it is a doozy," Judge Dustin Stephenson said, according to the release. "You stole rest from the sunset of someone's life and should be punished for it."

Soundtracked to Beyoncé’s 2016 song “Freedom,” the campaign ad alternates between footage of Harris, her supporters, and B-roll footage, over which the vice president and 2024 candidate says, “In this election we each face a question: What kind of country do we want to live in?”
Cutting to footage of Trump and J.D. Vance, Harris’s voiceover continues, “There are some people who think we should be a country of chaos, of fear, of hate. But us, we choose something different. We choose freedom.”
It also mentions choosing “a future where … no one is above the law,” at which point the video cuts to Trump’s 2023 Fulton County Jail mug shot—an image the Trump campaign itself has used on its website and merchandise—as well as a flurry of news headlines, timed to the soundtrack’s percussion, about his recent 34 felony convictions.
The video emphasizes a number of other issues one can expect to be key points of Harris’s campaign, including reproductive freedom, gun violence, childhood poverty, and affordable health care.
The ad closes with Harris saying, “We believe in the promise of America, and we’re ready to fight for it. Because when we fight we win.”

In August, Grimes told Wired in an interview that she did have a "big, long conversation" with Musk about his views on transgender people because she wanted to understand where he was coming from.
"It came down to pretty much every way that your transition can cause fertility issues. I was like, 'OK, you don't hate trans people; you hate woke culture,'" she said.
whyyyyyyy are these white male supremacists so obsessed with reproduction?
The 10th oldest joke was found in the world's oldest 'joke book.' It's a fourth-century text called "Philogelos" (or "Laughter-Lover"), and is attributed to ancient Greeks Hierocles and Philagrius.
"Asked by the court barber how he wanted his hair cut, the king replied: 'In silence.'"
This footage only raises more questions and makes this whole failure look even worse. 😬
