[I]n one instance, a bellboy/valet from a hotel nearby The Promenade was observed in a back alley placing scooters in The Promenade Garage. That bellboy/valet had his own key to unlock The Promenade Garage. Borelli was later observed conversing with that bellboy/valet. Borelli subsequently picked up the scooters and took them away in a truck...

Running this kind of grift kind of undercuts the whole moralistic pretense behind what they're doing.


Everyday walking to work I see scooters knocked over and in disrepair. I live in the midwest and we're leaving winter and going into the rain season here and most of these scooters are pretty beat up by now.
