You should seek advice from a competent attorney in all legal matters. If the utilities are turned off, or they don't pay their rent, then we would evict. Other bills are not our problem. We may decide not to accept someone into public housing who has a bad credit history. We would still consider them eligible for Section 8 assistance, though.
