'There's poop everywhere': Basement sewage flooding disrupts Detroit apartment life

Starlette Rowland, a resident of an apartment building on Meyers Road in Detroit, reports recurring floods in her basement with suspected sewage since October, describing the unsanitary conditions and management's inadequate cleanup efforts. Despite city officials acknowledging the unsanitary state, the property owner denies the claims and states that a city inspection found no issues, while Rowland, withholding rent in escrow due to damage, faces eviction threats.
