I ended my lease with Mr Ristaino on 09/03/2022 under the VAWA and made an emergency move. Mr Ristaino was notified on 07/28/2022 that I would be moving ASAP and was told why. I was housed under HUD organization which Mr Ristaino was in a contract with the organization and a lease with me.

On 09/02/2022 Mr Ristaino took the entire months rent electronically out of my bank account, I contacted him with the issue and was told I would have my money back by 09/09/2022 which did not happen. On 09/11/2022 I disputed the charge with my bank who found my dispute vailid and refunded my money. Mr Ristaino refunded me an incorrect amount thru a mobile app, Zelle but my bank has already began the process.

I have mailed Mr Ristaino a check for $105.00 that I owed for 09/01-09/03-2022 but he refuses to return my deposit which by law he can not keep under the VAWA. Mr Ristaino also failed to notify me if the VAWA which could partly be because he thinks it's the organizations policy and not a Federal Law signed by President Bill Clinton in 1994. Mr Ristaino is in possession of $1050.00 that does not belong to him. Mr Ristaino has embezzled $1050.00 from a HUD organization and myself.

Mr Ristaino also questioned my neighbors about my situation and the court case against my aggressor which has now put me in danger at my new address and slandered and defaced my name by accusing me of defrauding my housing organization which is a blanketed lie.

I have not one two housing specialist that worked diligently to move me for my safety. Six court dates to have my aggressor served with court documents also proves I have not defrauded my organization. Mr Ristaino is a liar and a thief at best.
