Hello, I live in RI with my boyfriend and our young son. We live in a house with 3 apartments, the apartment below ours is the landlords grandchild who is in line to own the house. He was arrested for a violent domestic against his girlfriend. Since we moved in at the beginning of the year, they have had dangerous physical fights almost every day. This is the first time he was taken into custody for it though, several months after we moved in. This environment is extremely unsafe for our baby and ourselves and we need to break the lease and get our security deposit back in order to afford a new place to live. We have the police record of the arrest. Will we be able to legally break this lease and get our deposit back? Thank you
