We have been suffering threats and abuse from St.Anthony Hospital also known as Chicago Southwest Development Corporation they are attempting to maneuver themselves in a nasty way.

1: On December 21, 2019 St.Anthony Hospital=Chicago Southwest Development Corporation sent inspectors inside the building that we inhabit by way of the Department of Law and Gangs Housing Enforcement with the motive of evicting us in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic. Without any reasonable motive.

2: On January 13, 2021 the private security company SECURATEX, which was contracted by St. Anthony Hospital=Chicago Southwest Development Corporation. After months of harassment was sending death threats. We have video of the moment that the threats were given to us as security was speaking via a 911 phone call.

3: St.Anthony Hospital =Chicago Southwest Development has threatened to send DCFS numerous times with the intention of separating families under the absurd argument that this place is uninhabitable.

4: St. Anthony Hospital=Chicago Southwest Development is attempting to put forth criminal charges on the inhabitants of the building at 3200 S. Kedzie. Under the absurd pretense of trespassing against private property. Knowing quite well that we have been inhabiting this place for two years prior to them purchasing this place.

We are tired of all their threats and inhumane treatment that we've had to deal with from St.Anthony =Chicago Southwest Development they're attempting to do something very conniving and inhumane."
