You are screwed. You left the apartment a mess, you are behind on rent 2 months. YOu failed to give notice, you failed to notify your landlord IN WRITING about the LOCKS ON THE DOOR - or anything else for that matter.
And your using these supposed building code violations as an excuse for your lameness! Get your butt back overthere and bust ass cleaning the place back up "SPOTLESS". Send your landlord written notice of your leaving, for good cause, 3 break ins (I hope you have documentation). Mention the front door lock and any other "CODE" problems and appoligize for not notifying him of these problems. Tell him your broke, you can't pay the back rent and could he please use your security deposit and last months rent and you will do your upmost to put the apartment back into the condition he gave it to you - SO THAT HE CAN RENT IT IMMEDIATELY and not lose any rent! Then maybe he won't bother to sue your ass as he should.
