Well, Maria, this is what is called karmic retribution. Shall we tell everyone what you did at my…read morerental? I will recount all of it until you pay the 3000 you own. Who am I people? I am a local political organizer for 55 years, dedicated to gangs, going into prisons for 45 years, working with endangered animals, and who is Maria Rios? A flower woman who ripped me off. I may have to move my rant to google reviews as my yelp reviews are so brutal they are removed.
Lets start with the basics, I go in to buy flowers knowing she is Mexican, in a racist part of Santa Cruz. The mountains are the last strong hold for white power folks, southerners with their flag and nazi and kkk types. So I go in to support her business as I lived in Mexico as a child. And with tRump doing his sweeps across the county I go out of my way to support people of color under the foot of maga.
We meet, she hears I have a rental. She becomes super friendly, walks me arm in arm joking with me to add the sweetness of the encounter. She is a beautiful woman, shapely and body builds, and has the looks. But looks and charm are just a advertising gimmick. Let me add, my father was a famous art director to Grand Advertising one of the largest corporations on the planet stationed in Kenya serving whole countries. He was known throughout upper Africa. With that I was raised under a roof of a expert. Maria pitch is just a pitch, of kindness, sweetness, with kids in tow, six of them. But the personality once you have her renting, is the opposite. Lets back up, I have to mention my rentals are well kept, its a knee jerk reaction to hate landlords with good reason. But my family due to our political leanings will never rip off the working class. I rented for lower then even hud prices. 400 hangup calls, within 12 hours after eviction, ATT wanted to help, cops and DA. not interested. Who could it be????
1. Paid rent late almost every time, then little here and there.
2. Refused to pay a security deposit. I did not evict due to kids in the house. She refused. Which of you unless you are living with family has not paid a security deposit?
3. Refused to sign a lease.
4. Refused to turn in the rental application.
5. Destroyed the place.
6. Destroyed new steps put in, chipped them with her son dropping the trash cans down onto the redwood steps.
7. Vented the dryer under the house said she was taking the laundry outside the rental, which I then videoed her doing the laundry as I was under the house trying to repair the hose, then when confronted did her usual, I do not know what you are talking about. Even the ovaries on her when she said to the video evidence, I still do not know what you are talking about.
8. The copious amount of lying, God have mercy. So much but not very skilled or competent at getting a high enough IQ to lie to get away with it.
9. At another time, I will recount the lies. I need a editor, but by trade I am a investigative photojournalist, published nationally and in 7 books and a film making the rounds. I also worked for the Santa Cruz District Attorney. The lies were large and small but constant.
10. The worse of it all, was my cat. I had to rescue my brothers 8 cats after his untimely death by suicide due to cops seeing he had OCD and decided to torment him to death. I spent 6000 to have the cats driven from dallas by a christian group to Ben Lomond. My brothers pride and joy. HIs favorite cat was Rachael, mother to a few of the other cats. So Maria lied and said her dogs, had a tiny issue with cats, hearing tiny, I said my cat will scratch a nose and that will be the end of that. The worse lie was they attack, they both jump on Rachael and tried to rip her apart, I had to get both off of her in front of that daughter of hers, who shamelessly lied to animal enforcement. I monitored my cat, one time they went early to school and they usually do not come back for a few hours. Rachael wanted out, so I let her out and went to clean up in the bathroom. I hear my cat being killed. They are on her ripping at her, both of them with that daughter watching. I rush out and I try to stop the fight, the losing fight, the cat attacks me in terror. I do not notice she has a infection and then it spread and I have to put her down. Jodete Rios. Due to the level of dishonesty I feared retaliation. Well, I finally call the sc pound to lodge a complaint. I am just a broken down hippy activist in this part of my journey. But the idea of those dogs killing again made me move. Would you like your precious cat killed? The officer. I tell him, watch for those big tits and ass, she will sweet talk you. i then showed him Ella the elephant, named after me by Cynthia Moss, the elephant whisperer of Africa to solidify I am what I am and all she has is big tits/ass for persuasion. Boycott, if you have decency and sense of justice and love cats. You vote with money, if you enjoy evil, then proceed. Otherwise, let the karma begin.
