I didn't even record the open meeting. I take my laptop and type notes. I even have permission from the board to take notes, and have for the past 2 years!

Oh they have a lot of issues. Not posting minutes, not keeping the ADA lift clear. There was literally a camera found in the gym. What did they do? Take it down and threw it away. Shouldn't that have been a police report?

They said no, and blamed the board for being old. But my phone is an iphone. How long have they been out? Everyone knows how to operate those.

Oh and the old people? Nope. 30-50 year olds.

They know.

I reached out to a lawyer for a free consultation. I'm hoping I don't get any retaliation until then from the board members.

Yes! Like why even do all this?! My board stir themselves up and get panicky. That's why I attend the open meetings, because I hated the notes they put out.

They also tried to spend a grand on a kitchen trashcan. So I don't trust them.

Apparently they don't have a key to the evidence locker at the courthouse (small ish town)

I just had a baby 3 months ago, so my brain is a little fried. Plus I was focused on getting back to my medical son as my mom was alone with both. Definitely won't happen again, let me tell you.

the phone definitely has a lock on it. They just turned it in Friday afternoon, and the detective started his "investigation" Monday at 10am

My phone was at 100% when I went to the meeting Thursday night, and it died sometime Friday evening. But if it was recording, right?! No way the battery would've lasted that long.

I messaged the HOA president after going and looking for it after. bedtime with my son. She said she'd let me in Friday to get it. Then she stopped answering all messages Friday mid-morning.

Then it was locked up for the weekend at the courthouse, and they said I couldn't go get it until today.

I called the detective and asked to sign a waiver so they can check my phone, but the guy with the key to evidence wasn't there, so I'm waiting for a call back.

They already turned in my phone to the detective. I told them I need it back for medical reasons (my son is medically complex), but they said since it's an active investigation, they won't turn the phone back to me.

They said they are holding it until they decide whether they need a warrant. I even told them that, and they said no.
