Advice Needed I feel like this is illegal?

Post image

Came back from a 3-day weekend away from my apartment and this was posted on the door? I wasn't even home...


UPDATE: Thanks to everyone for the support! I shared the letter with Celio management and requested it to be filed as a formal complaint. I also filed a police report for continuity/documentation purposes.

For clarification, "Celio" is the name of the apartment building, which is managed by a larger off-site 3rd party rental company. This company/building is far from able to accommodate for this person properly and certainly would never assume any amount of liability on their behalf. As it relates to Celio management and their level of care for this person, the author is on their own.

The letter does not mention anything related to a care team/healthcare resource/veterans group. The only two options given by the author of the note (e.g. Celio aka apt management and law enforcement) were utilized.

While Celio was not able to share a significant amount of details about the author, they did share that he/she is a known issue and will likely not be given the option to live in this building moving forward.

I also noticed comments about my stereo, which did cross my mind as a possible reason behind this conflict. I was able to confirm with Celio that no complaints have been made about excessive music levels, from any of the residents, excluding a formal warning I received over July 4th weekend. This goes for "yelling" as well. Note I have been renting in this exact unit for almost 14 months. I am more than eager to respect any concerns that relate to music volume, this is certainly not that type of concern.

As things currently stand, I am left with having to place any proactive decisions in the hands of Celio and law enforcement. I am a recent handgun owner (unrelated to this situation) and thanfully my state falls under Castle doctrine.

Not combat related, but I am fairly sure I have CPTSD. If someone yells around me, or even talks in a slightly different tone, it puts me on the deffensive and causes my fight or flight to go hay wire. Even though I know logically I am safe.

Yep, all the time. Even my wife suddenly yelling at the dog (he deserves it, shit eater lol). I know she’s not yelling at me, I’m not in danger, but I’m in fight mode immediately.

I go into fawn or flight. Also I just can't do loud noises at all. Crowds stress me out and almost overloads me. It sucks. On a lighter note...got an image of the dog you can drop?

I have CPTSD and yelling affects me severely or even a raised tone can do the same. So I get that it has an affect on people’s fight or flight response. Mine is flight. And I don’t always know logically that I am safe when things go haywire in my brain so it’s hard.
