8th District Court of Appeals Hands Anthony Dattilo and His Shady Southwest LLC Their Ass In Cleveland Housing Case Abuse Ruling!!!!

These Slumlords own(ed) numerous properties in Newburgh Heights and the area, mostly hidden behind shady LLC's. Word is they are a driving force behind the lies being told about the Newburgh Heights Building Department and want you to believe they are victims. Their extensive record of criminal, civil, and housing violations tell the real truth though. 

They are predators that do not care about anything other than making money regardless of the damage it does to everyone else's property values or negative attention it brings to the community.

Rumor has it they have enlisted their tenant, Adam Mazur , to be their public voice and stir up anger in the village to cover up their own violations so they can continue to prey on their tenants, ignore the rules of being landlords in Newburgh, and distract the rest of us from their slumlord ways. 

It sure appears like these folks are engaged in a campaign of deception and lies. They will say and do anything to cover their own butts. Everything, except follow the rules of the Village.

As you can see, it doesn't look like they want to follow any rules, anywhere, for anything.
