<b>CHICAGO, ILLINOIS. </b>Grant Newburger, 50, with Herm Willis, 49, in Willis' apartment on the eighth floor of the Cabrini Green high rise where Willis lived for years on the corner of North Halsted and Division streets on February 29, 2008, two weeks before his scheduled eviction. Willis was evicted from Cabrini Green because of a "one-strike rule" that forbids public housing tenants caught with illicit substances from maintaining a lease. While Willis was not caught with anything, a member of his household was.
