SECTION 7 TITLE 7.10 RICK NEWMANN STALKING: THE MOB

 

Successfully Disbursing a Mob Rick Newmann Formed to Harass Me

Printed Text Messages | Property Nepotism | City Officials Nepotism

 

Rick Newmann’s retaliatory campaign against me, escalated after I rejected his inappropriate sexual and romantic advances. This retaliation was not only a deeply personal attack but also a coordinated effort to intimidate me by leveraging a mob of neighbors to harass and isolate me. The actions detailed below illuminate his abusive tendencies and the crimes committed under the guise of community discontent, ultimately leading to the successful dispersal of this mob.

Subpart 1

The Escalation of Abuse

The situation reached its peak when Newmann incited the neighborhood to gather outside my home, engaging in group hazing and public ridicule. These gatherings were orchestrated to intimidate me, painting me as the “hateful Black lady” without anyone truly knowing me. The abusive performances ranged from derogatory jokes intruding through my windows to aggressive displays meant to provoke a reaction. Newmann’s persistence in creating tension was evident in his physical actions, such as escalating to stealing my grill while it was still warm and making a daily display of that control and incitement of confrontation through spring, summer and fall—an invitation I rejected like all the others. His behavior fits a pattern of possessive jealousy and controlling actions designed to monitor and manipulate my environment. This campaign was deeply distressing, but I refused to acknowledge his provocations directly, knowing his intent was to trap me into a crisis or retaliatory outburst.

Subpart 2

Crimes, Rights Violations, and Abusive Behaviors Identified

Newmann’s actions violated multiple rights and protections afforded to tenants under state and federal laws:

1. Unreasonable Demands: Expecting silence or compliance from me while orchestrating public harassment violates my right to quiet enjoyment under Minnesota tenant law (Minn. Stat. §504B.161).

2. Shifting Blame: Framing me as the antagonist to justify his behavior and rally others breaches protections against retaliatory evictions and harassment (Minn. Stat. §504B.285, Retaliation Defense).

3.Emotional and Verbal Abuse: Facilitating degrading jokes and public ridicule infringes upon the Fair Housing Act (FHA), which prohibits creating a hostile housing environment based on race or gender (42 U.S.C. §3601).

4.Threats of Harm: Creating an environment of intimidation, implying potential violence, constitutes harassment and violates Minnesota’s anti-harassment laws (Minn.Stat. §609.749).

5. Stalking: Monitoring my movements and creating an intimidating presence outside my home violates both state anti-stalking laws and protections under the Violence Against Women Act (VAWA) for survivors of harassment (Minn. Stat. §609.749; VAWA 34 U.S.C.§12201).

6. Sexual Harassment: Unwanted advances and retaliatory actions for rejecting those advances violate FHA provisions prohibiting sexual harassment in housing.

7. Manipulating Others: Inciting neighbors to join his campaign, exploiting their ignorance of his true motives, breaches community harassment protections.

8. Isolation Tactics: Attempting to alienate me from the community through public shaming is a form of discriminatory intimidation prohibited under federal law (42 U.S.C. §3601).

These actions, combined with his retaliatory harassment, constitute criminal offenses and civil violations, including stalking, harassment, and sexual harassment in housing. They not only violated my personal safety but also created a hostile living environment, infringing on my rights as a tenant and individual.

Subpart 3

The Turning Point

The catalyst for change came when I printed out Newmann’s incriminating text messages and announced his “quiet” sexual harassment and “loud” public displays of frustration. This revelation exposed his predatory behavior to the crowd he had incited. It became clear that their participation in his mob was enabling a dangerous individual. The crowd’s reaction shifted dramatically upon learning the truth. Recognizing the manipulation they had fallen victim to, they dispersed, leaving Newmann without his mob. The children’s picnic table and swing set he later introduced were feeble attempts to restore his image as a “good guy” in the community. However, these gestures failed to mask his predatory tendencies and the harm he had caused.

Subpart 4

Nepotism and Resistance: Apartment Manager Anthony Anderson Assistance In Shielding Rick Newmann

During this time, the influence of Rick Newmann’s escalated sexual harassment and retaliatory stalking, increased growing hostility ‘within the city’ (small town) it created an overwhelming sense of unwelcomeness, rooted in “small-town attitudes” and disdain for outsiders that lasted even after the crowd disbursed. Though I endured much of it silently, the environment became too toxic to ignore—and now something I had to deal with daily when out in the community. After, I finally printed Newmann’s inappropriate text messages—demeaning intimidation and coercion masked as “pet names” and false compliments like “beautiful” and “sunshine,” along with unsolicited Facebook links I never opened;  confronting the crowd made it clear: they were supporting a man sexually harassing an innocent woman. Despite their crude jokes, the facts caused visible shock, and many dispersed after seeing the truth in black and white.

However, Anthony Anderson, the apartment manager, intervened—not to stop Newmann, but to shield him. Like a loyal accomplice, Anderson collected and discarded the prints, acting as though protecting Newmann was his duty. Meanwhile, a third male tenant perpetuated Newmann’s lies about me, adding fuel to the fire. I stood firm, stating I would distribute the evidence far and wide if they didn’t stop. My resolve and clear boundaries—"No is no, just leave me alone"—eventually silenced Anthony and the other tenant. But Newmann’s harassment persisted.

When authority figures like Anthony Anderson choose loyalty to predators over protecting vulnerable tenants, it reinforces a culture where predators are emboldened, and victims are left isolated. Proximity to these dynamics becomes a daily danger—a cycle perpetuated by systemic failure and male privilege. (See Section 4 Nepotism)

Subpart 5

The Complicit Acts of Apartment Manager Anthony Anderson

1. Complicity in Harassment: By assisting Rick Newmann in disposing of the printed evidence of harassment, Anderson actively shielded the harasser and undermined your efforts to hold Newmann accountable. This behavior makes him complicit in creating a hostile living environment.

Potential Violations: Local harassment or anti-bullying ordinances. Breach of landlord/manager duties to maintain a safe and harassment-free living environment.

2. Negligence in Duty: As an apartment manager, Anderson likely has a duty of care to address tenant complaints, including harassment. His choice to support Newmann rather than investigate or address my legitimate concerns is a form of negligence.

Potential Violations: Housing laws requiring property managers to provide a safe environment. Violations of fair housing laws if harassment is based on race, gender, or other protected statuses.

3. Obstruction of Justice: By actively collecting and discarding my printed evidence, Anderson could be obstructing efforts to document or report Newmann’s misconduct. This could be construed as attempting to hide evidence that could be used in legal or civil proceedings.

Potential Violations: Laws against tampering with evidence in harassment or discrimination cases. Interfering with an investigation if law enforcement or civil complaints are involved.

4. Aiding and Abetting Sexual Harassment: If Anderson knowingly supported Newmann’s behavior—especially after witnessing the text messages—he could be considered an enabler. His actions perpetuated a hostile living environment. (See Eviction Notice July 30, 2024, See November 28^th, 2024 Incident)

Potential Violations: Employment or housing laws regarding the prevention of sexual harassment. Failure to act on knowledge of harassment may expose him to civil liability.

5. Discrimination or Retaliation: By aligning with Newmann against me, Anderson’s actions may reflect discriminatory motives, particularly if his actions are tied to biases based on your race or gender.

Potential Violations: Fair Housing Act violations (discrimination based on race, sex, or national origin). Retaliation laws if his actions are perceived as punishing you for speaking out.

6. Failure to Protect: Property managers and landlords are often obligated to take reasonable steps to prevent harm to tenants. Anderson’s inaction and active undermining of my safety place me in continued danger.

Potential Violations: Breach of contract or lease terms requiring a safe living environment. Liability for failing to prevent foreseeable harm.

Subpart 6

Lessons and Reflections

(a)Standing Firm: Refusing to engage directly with the provocations prevented Newmann from achieving his goal of trapping me in a crisis.

(b)Revealing the Truth: Presenting factual evidence of his harassment dismantled the false narrative he constructed.

(c)Community Accountability: Encouraging others to recognize their role in enabling abuse can lead to meaningful change.

Newmann’s actions underscore the importance of recognizing and addressing abusive behaviors, especially in housing environments where power dynamics can be exploited. By documenting and exposing his actions, I reclaimed my safety and disbursed the mob he formed to harass me.

Subpart 7

Again With the False Charming Façade

The children’s entertainment area—his post-mob attempt to salvage his image—is not my concern. I focus on the facts, protect myself, and maintain my faith. The truth, as always, is the ultimate defense against abuse and deception.
