At this point, the couple should legally be entitled to the land they've paid to maintain. When you purchase a large sum of property, you assume the legal documents are correct. Forty years ago, a husband and wife purchased five acres of farmland from the previous owners. They've lived on the land for the past four decades, paying insurance and taxes on the land, even paying thousands of dollars to repair old buildings that were part of the property, only to find out it didn't belong to them. Well, this couple made the misfortune mistake of not actually mapping out how many acres their property was, costing them to foot the bills for thousands upon thousands of dollars throughout the time they lived there, never realizing they were paying for property that wasn't technically theirs. Now that they are growing older and wanting to sell their land, the truth of the brutal scam came to light - 40 unfortunate years later.
