Lee county electric cooperative LCEC LCEC Hate crime - cut down my trees because I'm black North Fort Myers Florida
I bought new propery, put up fence, locked my yard while I went away, when I came back I found someone had tempered with my fence lock, went inside my property and cut down 3 of my palm trees that I was paying lawn maintenance to keep away from their line.
I called to find out if it was them, they denied it was them. Once I called the cops and the neighbor identify them as the culprit that's when they admitted it was them. To save their a*s, they then came up with the lie that the trees were in the easement and was affecting the powerline.
The reason I believe my race play a role is because the property was recently owned by caucasians, it didn't have any gates, they had direct access but LCEC never felt offended about those palm trees in their "easements".
Three houses from me, another caucasian have palm trees in LCEC easement and they have no problem with it. I feel like if easement and powerline was the case they would have removed all the palm trees that was in the easement, not just the property that's owned by the black girl.
