[53]
march 29th leaving david to cover the
[55]
watch at blue on the bay lunch time came
[58]
i sat in the car i started eating my
[60]
first slice my first slice that's when
[62]
david met a very different goliath i saw
[65]
him pointing at the car and everything
[66]
and
[67]
so i got out to see what his concern was
[70]
and he said he said what are you doing i
[72]
said i'm having my lunch
[74]
so you started cursing and telling me oh
[76]
oh you're supposed to be doing your job
[78]
and i said legally i'm allowed to have a
[80]
lunch i can i can sit here and i can eat
[82]
he had a problem with that so so before
[84]
things escalated i calmed down and i got
[87]
back in the car and closed the door he
[90]
comes to the passenger side and snatches
[93]
the door open then all hell breaks loose
[101]
he'd later learn that man is ben devere
[104]
a resident and condo board president who
[107]
ultimately calls the police claiming he
[110]
feels threatened look at this
[112]
racism racist yeah you racist
[119]
y'all heard that right you heard that
[120]
right when the police show up de vere
[122]
wants the guard to go these witnesses
[124]
though they see things from the guards
[127]
point of view
[131]
this isn't the first time
[133]
he should approach differently that's
[135]
what i suggest if he would have
[136]
approached tiffany everything would have
[138]
been handled differently but this guy
[139]
started recording
[141]
they say okay man sorry our hands are
[143]
tied here you have to go
[144]
i said okay no problem and i left i
[147]
stand behind my company i stand by any
[149]
employee if they feel they were treated
[151]
bad
[152]
we're with them rolando palma owns the
[154]
security company which lost the blue on
[156]
the bay contract following this incident
[159]
what's your problem man
[160]
he says this is not the first time
[162]
devere's had a problem with one of his
[164]
guards he made references before of
[167]
people in color but it is the first time
[170]
it was caught on camera
[173]
palma says he's planning to take legal
[175]
action discrimination complaints civil
[178]
lawsuits breach of fiduciary duty and
[181]
no one wants to deal with that because
[182]
it only ends up getting paid by the
[184]
owners they're the ones that suffer as a
[185]
result of having a board member that
[187]
doesn't know
[188]
proper protocol attorney alessandra
[191]
stivelman does not represent blue on the
[193]
bay but she is board certified in condo
[196]
law you're representing the interests of
[197]
your entire community and you have an
[200]
obligation to ensure that it's properly
[202]
represented just because your board
[203]
member doesn't mean that you can take
[205]
unilateral actions that you can fire
[207]
people or tell people what to do
[209]
there are
[210]
certain procedures that need to be
[212]
followed we asked the blue on the bay
[214]
property manager for a response
[216]
the response was no comment mr david you
[219]
mind answering some questions for us
[221]
when we caught up with devere to get his
[223]
take on things you're just trying to see
[224]
if you could give us a statement yeah
[225]
turn it one second feel free he whipped
[228]
out another phone appeared to record me
[230]
then
[233]
oh
[234]
i guess he just gotta hit me with the
[235]
mirror then
[237]
and drove away
[240]
and that was our laryn livingston
[241]
reporting and he was not hurt after
[243]
getting hit by that car and the board
[245]
president well he's been caught on a few
[247]
cameras yelling at neighbors and other
[249]
workers in the building we'll have much
[251]
