It's been a year since they paid you a dime and you're just now taking action?

Get a lawyer and file for an eviction and judgement for past due rent / damages. Make sure you include that they pay your lawyer fees.

You can't seriously want to interfere with him moving out, which making him unable to find a new home would certainly do.
Just evict him, and worry about credit reports later.
