What was the status of these Hispanic immigrants with their rent
payments?
As a former landlord, I can tell you that evicting non-paying tenants or >those destroying property, or those creating disturbances, is not an
easy process.

From what I scanned, article is not clear on this point...but
indicated not true for one tenant. Below might be the reason.
Auric has a point. As a landlord, if your tenants are paying and
basically respecting their lease, you'd leave them in place.
You have to admit, America is a country that makes it hard to get rid
of squatters and shitty tenants.

Most all landlords do....I am one....but there are "non-educated"
landlords out there who skirt the laws.

Around here, if evicting someone during winter months, the sheriff's department may not be motivated, so to speak. Each state's laws are different, and here, a landlord should be prepared to evict a tenant;
the laws are specific about what to do, and when.
One tenant, who was not living in the house, I offered some $200.00 to
clean out that person's belongings. Sometimes, its better to offer
money, rather than going to court.
In DC, you can have a tenant basically refuse to leave, and then the
"system" protects that tenant for years as the owner is forced to jump >through hoop after hoop after hoop.
