A federal lawsuit was filed today by Housing Opportunities Project for Excellence, Inc. (“HOPE”), a private, not-for-profit fair housing organization, three African American testers, and African American housing seekers against the owners (Beverly Hills Club Apartments, LLC), property management company (United Property Management Group), property manager (Idalio Rivero), and a leasing agent (Katherina Garciga) of Aventura Harbor Apartments for discriminating against African Americans.

In the aftermath of the fatal shooting of Alison Parker, 24, and Adam Ward, 27 of CBS affiliate WDBJ7 in Roanoke, Va., how and why accused gunman Vester Lee Flanagan, 41, could commit such an egregious act are questions asked.
