Meet Margaret and Marjorie Barthel of 1018 Fiske Street in the Palisades of Los Angeles, CA. What makes them so special? Well, they live in a $1.2 million house in this upscale neighborhood and may be responsible for introducing up to 500,000 rats into Los Angeles' booming rat population. How were they allowed to do this? One might look at the horrible beauracracy that is LA's Health Department. Inspectors have visited the Barthel's repeatedly but were stymied by the sisters' clever response of not opening the front door.
