Good morning Richard,
Thank you for responding. I forgot to send the documents to prove our claims. We are attaching them here.
As for the violations, can you verify when and by whom closed the violations? We checked the link.

The unit is still having ongoing issues stemming from the originally complaints you came out to inspect back in May. Please let us
know if we should refile/submit new complaints so that the issues can be addressed.
We understood through our various communications with you that nothing could be done for the habitability issues, under the
jurisdiction of the LA County Department of Health, until the Asbestos exposure/contamination was abated. Everything has been
on hold until Adam decides to act and begin the process over again with certified asbestos consultants. Since no one seems to
have the authority, or is willing to assume the authority, we have been stuck with the owners and property mangers not wanting to
fix the problem and remove the health hazards. You mentioned before that you have advocated in other cases, that you spoke
with city managers to get cities involved. We have tried to contact the city for help, and went to the City Council meeting to ask
them to get involved, but Diamond Bar has not been wanting to get involved to utilize their enforcement authority.
Since Adam has failed to comply with legitimate professionals to do the required abatement, Adult Protective Services is
investigating for Elder Abuse. APS has been following this since the beginning of the year. All of this culminated in a Temporary
Restraining Order being issued by the Pomona Courthouse on 8/7/25. We have been very thankful to the various medical
professionals who could recognize the signs of abuse and decided to file the reports as mandated reporters. The doctors and
nurses have proven invaluable advocates. The wheels of justice are slow to move, but at least they are moving.
Sincerely,
The Garispe Family

Dear Garispe Family,
Thank you for your message.
The Department of Public Health has responded to all complaints within our jurisdiction. We conducted
investigations, and all violations identified in the habitable areas have been corrected.
At this time, the only outstanding issue pertains to the garage, which falls under the responsibility of the
Homeowners Association (HOA). We have been informed that the HO A has hired a vendor to inspect the garage
and begin mold remediation. An initial inspection attempt was made, and the vendor is expected to reschedule
another visit to complete the assessment.
Please note that we do not have jurisdiction over AQMD matters, as it is a State agency. However, Public Health
remains available to respond to any future complaints related to matters within our scope.
We sincerely wish your father a prompt and full recovery.
Sincerely, Richard Lavin

CAUTION: External Email. Proceed Responsibly.
Dear Inspector Doug,
Hope all is well. We sent a text a few weeks ago. We are here waiting for dad at K eck USC hospital. We have
been here since 5:30am. Today is his surgery for removal of the cancerous tumor in his ascending colon. He finally
was moved to a private room around 3pm.
Due to his medical condition, his specialists and our family are concerned with the status of the living situation. There
has not been any movement at the unit pertaining to the outstanding repairs since 5/9/25. It has been 137 days until
today.
It has been 257 days since Inspector Robin first received the health complaint. It was then transferred to Inspector
Chloe, both inspectors are under the supervision of Chief Environmental Specialist Zepur Chakmakian. Inspector
Chloe erroneously closed the first cases due to falsified documents by Adam Brett Freilich.
After our family’s 4/4/25 meeting at Supervisor Hilda Solis’s office, we were informed by the Assistant Director,
Dr. Scott Abbott, that our unit would be re-inspected by some of the best on his team in accordance to the safety
and health standards that were not employed by the previous inspectors.
The CAC asbestos survey has been invalidated by both CalOSHA and the South Coast AQ MD. Are the violations
against the Co-Trustees, Mark and Sharon Freilich ongoing due to non-compliance?
The citations that were sent to Professional Community Management – An Associa® Company were erroneously
sent to the wrong entity. The Allegro HO A/board, nor the community manager, were responsible. It has come to
light that property manager for the unit, Adam Brett Freilich deceived the LA County Health Department and the
City of Diamond Bar by actively concealing the true identity of the responsible entity. Collusion on part of
community property manager, Sandra Blair aided Adam Brett Freilich to create a false narrative. Per Allegro’s
CC&Rs and Bylaws, the Co-Trustees Mark and Sharon Freilich are solely responsible for the citations. The co-
trustees and the unit’s manager failed to act, thus through their negligence created deferred and denied critical
maintenance and requests for repairs of the unit’s latent defects. This was all reported to the LA Department of
Health on numerous occasions. The unit has been uninhabitable for a very very long time now.
We are attaching proof for everyone’s review. The truth of the matter is that the judicial system, as well as local,
county, and state agencies/governments have been bamboozled. It is imperative that in light of the evidence, all
necessary corrections to pervious citations be amended so they can be levied on the correct responsible party, the
Co-Trustees of the Freilich Family Trust.
Furthermore, the Freilich Family Trust has breached its’ duty to keep the Allegro HOA/board informed and adhere
to the obligations of the community when it failed to inform that the unit is a rental property, failed to provide all
names and contact information of the tenants residing at the unit, failed to provide a lease for all tenants, failed to
provide an updated yearly lease or when there were any changes in the terms in the lease, and failed to provide the
tenants with the necessary CC&Rs, Bylaws, and Governing documents of the community.
We have been marginalized and exploited by a great deceiver. The purpose of this email is to right the wrongs and
bring about justice, not just for our family, but for any family who is unjustly railroaded by unscrupulous and
unethical property managers/owners. N ow is the time for action by the various agencies and governments which
have been entrusted to look after the vulnerable in our society by taking appropriate action. This can be achieved
by spearheading a collaborative multilateral joint investigation/audit to go after the responsible parties involved in this
great fraud and concealment of the truth. May any person, business, and/or entity involved in this corruption be held
to the full extent of law.
Sincerely,
The Garispe Family
