A single Florida home has caught a multitude of attention after the owner went into default on his mortgage. The home is located in Miami and the owner owes approximately $720,000 on the mortgage. JP Morgan Chase Bank has filed an action to foreclose the property in a Miami-Dade County court.

The owner of the home is OJ Simpson, a man who has had a less than quiet past. With the home in foreclosure, Simpson does not have the same ownership rights to his home. Knowing that, the advocacy group People For the Ethical Treatment of Animals has asked the JP Morgan's CEO Jamie Dimon to donate the home to their cause.

Peta has made it clear that they want the home for a "Meat is Murder" museum. "This museum would encourage visitors to choose nonviolent vegan meals over those that cost millions of cows, pigs, fish, chickens, and other animals their lives," said a Peta spokeswoman.

The animal rights group hopes to play on Simpson's history whether rumor or real. The group said that the murder of his wife and waiter Ron Goldman as well as his current incarceration for a Las Vegas Robbery are a part of what would draw attention to the museum. Peta also says that Simpsons ownership of chicken restaurants and HoneyBaked Ham stores were part of their motive for acquiring the home.

No matter what your situation is, your home is a significantly important part of your life. It not only provides protection from the elements, but it is a vault for what you hold most dear. Retaining an experienced attorney at the first feeling of concern is the best way to keep in control and protect that important part of your life.
