Kyle Nash v. Louis Jimenez
I herein
inform the Board of another instance of unwarranted and unprovoked harassment
toward
me relevant to this case. Please add this to the
file.
This
afternoon, in front
of
my home,
while straightening
a line of bricks that are planted
in the
ground
in the parkway bordering both
sides
of my property, I was verbally
accosted, accused,
and
threatened
by
a member of this family.
The issue: I was
touching
a pole
demarcating
the side of their disabled parking
spot closest
to my
property - along the line in which the bricks lie. I was using the pole
as a crude surveying
instrument to eye-up/judge a straight line
from
the streetto the sidewalk along which
to place
the
bricks. I would also gently balance myself on it as I pressed the newly aligned bricks
down
into
the dirt with my feet.
Because,
in past similar situations, even my polite responses have served only
to exacerbate
and
escalated matters, this time I chose not to reply at all. Soon after, I overheard
a loud phone
conversation to the
authorities, which was placed from
the front porch of their home,
only yards
away
from where I was working.
With
five minutes two (2) squad cars pulled
up
in front of
my home. The officers said that
they
had just received a call alleging that I was engaged in “Criminal Damage
to
Property.”
The
official
record of that
event
(Event #: 0929313768 5:38PM Bt 922)
notes that the
officers found that the allegation to be untrue and had no basis in fact.
When
the police left, the harassment immediately
continued in the front yard,
this time
in
Spanish
with the neighbors. The Jimenez household
continues
to
be unaware
that, while I don’t
speak
Spanish well, in most cases I fully understand it. The accusations
toward me, which
continued
in
Spanish also
included other negative
comments about me.
Of special note:
Following numerous
similar encounters in the
past,
I politely
requested in
writing
to the
Jimenez’s that no one in their household
make uncivil and/or unnecessary
comments
and
remarks to (and/or about) me or either of my sons. Clearly,
my request was
not respected.
Sincerely,.
Kyle Nash
