“#Nightmare \u2018serial grifter\u2019 returns to West Village pad with NYPD escort<\/strong>”<\/p>\n

\n An accused roommate from hell returned Sunday to the West Village digs where she\u2019s allegedly been squatting and wreaking havoc for more than a year \u2014 armed with an NYPD escort.<\/p>\n

Kate Gladstone \u2014 described in court papers as a nightmare \u201cserial grifter\u2019\u2019 who has become a menacing scourge in the well-heeled Manhattan neighborhood \u2014 pulled up to 129 Barrow St. in a police SUV around 2:30 p.m.<\/p>\n

Two uniformed cops escorted the 44-year-old woman inside the building \u2014 with one of the officers carrying Saturday night\u2019s city Housing Court order preventing her from being booted amid the coronavirus.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m not sure what\u2019s going to happ<\/a>en now,\u2019\u2019 lamented co-op owner Heidi Russell, who sued Gladstone to try to evict her, to The Post on Sunday after the return of her alleged rogue short-term tenant.<\/p>\n

\u201cI just want my life back,\u2019\u2019 Russell said.<\/p>\n

The homeowner said Gladstone offered to leave the pad about a week and a half ago \u2014 but only for a $24,000 payout.<\/p>\n

Russell said she balked at paying the amount to the \u201cgrifter\u201d \u2014 who previously refused to the leave the Christopher Street home of an ex-girlfriend in the Village until she was paid $20,000, court papers allege.<\/p>\n

Gladstone arrived at Russell\u2019s brick Barrow Street apartment building Sunday in a sleeveless black shift and black Birkenstocks while holding a large black satchel to block her face from the camera. She refused to comment.<\/p>\n

Russell, who was not in the two-bedroom home when Gladstone arrived, entered the apartment\u00a0 shortly after to quickly retrieve something, but the pair did not interact, the owner said.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m feeling very uneasy not knowing what\u2019s going to happen [and] how she\u2019s going to act, if she\u2019s going to retaliate in any way, if she\u2019s feeling more emboldened,\u2019\u2019 Russell said after leaving the home again.<\/p>\n

Russell said she installed a camera inside her bedroom \u2014 and that she plans on returning for the night.<\/p>\n

\u201cI don\u2019t want her to feel she\u2019s won, so if I stay away overnight or [for] longer periods, she\u2019s going to feel she won and just keep taking over the apartment,\u2019\u2019 Russell said of Gladstone.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s a hard balance \u2014 you want to protect your home, but you also want to be safe.\u2019\u2019<\/p>\n

Russell has said she and her partner decided to rent their spare bedroom in June 2019 while her partner was on an extended international trip<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Gladstone \u2014 a self-described documentary filmmaker and divorced mom from Pittsburgh \u2014 was to pay $2,000 a month.<\/p>\n

The Process may be over and the coach who was…

But when Russell and her partner said they needed the room again at the end of that June for the partner\u2019s mom, who was recovering surgery, Gladstone allegedly flew into a rage \u2014 creating a months-long showdown that still hasn\u2019t ended.<\/p>\n

A judge then ruled over the weekend that because of the coronavirus, Gladstone, aka Katherine Klein, according to court papers, could stay in the pad at least till Oct. 1.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s at least the third time Gladstone has squatted in someone\u2019s home, refusing to leave, court documents allege. She allegedly sometimes brings her young daughter along, too.<\/p>\n

Gladstone has been arrested twice: for alleged stalking and grand larceny. She\u2019s set to appear in court on the raps next month.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Russell, who helped with accounts at a private equity firm in Midtown before being laid off last year, said Sunday, \u201cIt\u2019s crazy to know that systems are so one-sided and we can\u2019t get any due process.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis could happen to a tenant who has a roommate,\u2019\u2019 she said.<\/p>\n

\u201cOnce I get through this, I hope I can help others and help change the laws and show how systems are unbalanced and allow this type of grifting to happen.\u201d<\/p>\n

Russell\u2019s partner has steered clear of the co-op at least partly to avoid Gladstone, court papers say.\n <\/p><\/div>\n
