One resident, Peter Neuswold, also photographed Toego as he tried to enter his home while his wife was inside. The police were called, and Togo was arrested and taken away shortly after.
Another, John Mallon, called Ofogo within his $35,000-a-month rental. He called the police and asked them to record the incident, but refused to level charges.

Ofoego was caught living in this $35,000-a-month home in Westhampton. Owner John Mallon asked police to record the incident, but refused to press charges.
Ofoego was first seen in Westhampton Beach over Memorial Day weekend, when a resident told police that a ‘black woman wearing a black trench coat and sandals’ was walking through the backyard construction site of her four-bedroom rental property . Just a mile away from the village railway station.
When police arrived on May 29, he reported that he had no identification or credit card because he had been robbed while in Washington DC.
She also said she traveled to New York City a few days ago to board a train route to Westhampton Beach, where she said she was looking for a hotel room near the ocean.
Police then helped Ofgo find a local homeless shelter, the Post reports, where she said she wanted to charge her computer ‘and transfer money to an account.’
But just a few days later, on June 2, she was again seen wandering the wealthy neighborhoods—and it wouldn’t be the last time.
Over the past few months, Piece Ofoego, 32 (pictured), has been found sleeping in the backyards, pool houses, and second-story bedrooms of the Westhampton homeowners.
He has been arrested for encroachment three times since the end of May, but he has entered a total of seven properties in the village.
Officials say Ofogo passed through an unlocked gate that leads to the $275,000-a-month eight-bedroom rental on exclusive Dune Road from the beach.
She then allegedly entered the home through an unlocked back deck, where she lay until police arrived – and charged him with criminal trespass.
A police report obtained by the Post said, “The subject said that she was staying in a house down the street and entered the said residence to ask someone about a restaurant to eat.”
Then two days later, on June 4, Ofoego was again seen ‘living’ at a property’s pool house, which rents for $35,000 per month.
When police arrived at the time and were attempting to find another homeless shelter for Ofogo, an officer wrote in their report, they warned her if she continued to roam the village houses. So he will be arrested again for trespassing. ,
‘He left the area on foot.’
Ofogo’s last encounter with Westhampton police took place on June 24 at a ‘quintessential beachfront property’, which has seven bedrooms and was listed in July and August for a rent of $280,000.
According to the police report, she shook the landlord and went to the bedroom on the second floor.
After this the police reached the spot and arrested him.
But while they were taking her paperwork to the police department, Togo is said to have told the police she had made a mistake and that she ‘went inside to see the fare.
‘You just want to arrest me,’ he reportedly accused them. ‘All I did was look for rentals.’
Ofoego now spends his days walking around the village and along the beach, residents reported on Facebook.
Some have said they saw him on back streets, on Main Street, in a gazebo where bands play during the summer months, and at a local marina.
Sometimes she is seen wearing the same black trench coat and black knit she was told about in May – despite the hot temperatures.
For example, Janet Feldman commented on the Westhampton Beach Area Community Forum that she saw Toego walking his dog on the beach and on Dune Road in the morning.
Feldman wrote, ‘She definitely looks mentally unwell.
Marie Costelli also commented: ‘A few weeks ago, he asked me for help with Lidl. He needed money to pay for his groceries.
“While I was giving her some cash, which she took, a man who may have been the store manager told her to leave,” Costelli said. ‘I’m sorry for her, I hope she gets the help she needs.’
Ofoego now says she intends to defend herself in court, turning down the court-ordered public protector during hearings on July 6 and 13.
At one of those hearings, wrote Liam Anthony DeFronzo, Offgo was arguing with the judge.
And a few days ago, the Post reports, when officers were trying to serve him with a summons to appear in court, he told them they were harassing him and threatened to prosecute him. .
DeFronzo said, ‘It seemed to me that he was angry with the system in life. ‘After all, it looks like she’s looking for a place to sleep, but of course you never know what she might do, and sneaking into houses isn’t acceptable.
‘Does she really want help finding some kind of shelter and is doing this as a cry for help? I don’t know, but I was forced to help him in the courtroom that day,” he said.
Ofoego is due back in court on July 27.

Ofoego now claims that she was on the run from her abusive husband and is trying to find a place where she can raise her children.
