Aurora, CO Property Management Firm Sets Record Straight: Venezuelan Gangs Took Over, Gov''t Did Nothing — RedState
2024-10-17
[REDSTATE] The property management firm managing several buildings in Aurora, Colorado, that have been taken over by members of the Venezuela

...a country in Central America that sits on an enormous pool of oil. Formerly the most prospereous country in the region, it became infested with Commies sniffing almost unlimited wealth. It turned out the wealth wasn't unlimited, the economy collapsed under the clownish Hugo Chavez, the murder rate exceeded places like Honduras and El Salvador. A significant proportion of the populace refugeed to Colombia and points south...

n Tren de Aragua gang, is speaking out. The company has taken to X to provide a full description of how the buildings were invaded and taken over by the illegal alien gangsters, how the tenants fled, how people were threatened and assaulted, and how the local government reacted. It all starts here.

The thread starts with a powerful affirmation of what we already knew, and what some in government and the legacy media have tried to downplay: Gangs have taken control of entire apartment buildings. The company took over these buildings in 2019 and immediately started renovations to the run-down properties.

So far, so good, right? This is what a responsible property management firm does. If a new property needs renovations, they are done; this raises the value of the property, attracts a better sort of tenant, and provides a more pleasant place to live. But that's not what happened in this case; not after undocumented Democrat gang members started to focus their efforts on the property, and in time, to take over altogether.

Look at those images. This wasn't just an attack, this was a brutal beating, delivered by gang members who had taken over a property illegally.

But it didn't stop there.

This raises the question of how they got this representative's phone number. If it was a company phone, his number may have been available on the management company's website. If it was a private number, that's another thing entirely. But in either case, this is the use of a telecom system to directly threaten a person, which makes the whole thing now a federal issue.

Next, it came to light, as we have already documented, that tenants and squatters were indeed paying rent - to the gang.

So the property management company, with faith in the local government that turned out to be in vain, started complaining. Local authorities picked up a few gang members, but the overall problems remains.

#3  It was San Antonio, apparently the Texas law enforcement figured out who and where, then had a massive raid with hundreds of cops and hauled them off. I'm guessing Abbott told them "They crop up here, you stomp them."
