OKC, OK 73102 Number of pages including cover sheet___2______: I am writing to you in follow-up to our 41 minute phone conversation we just completed. I, again, want to thank you for calling and remind you, again, that you are the first person from HUD to call me since I filed my formal complaint in June 2006 against Habitat and the City of Lawton. As I stated in our conversation, due to the many failures of HUD to do anything since my complaint from over nine months ago, things have gotten out of control. As I stated, we are now forced to live in our home in Lawton in fear due to the recent threatening action I described. While it is good that HUD Community Planning and Development, your area, is finally starting to contact us, we fear it is too little and too late. Too much damage to our home has been allowed to continue by the lack of due diligence by HUD, the City of Lawton and Habitat for Humanity. The threats are the scariest and most frightening thing for our Family. I suggested that what HUD needs to do is to put all of the information, that I have provided, on a chart in a time line manner. This would show a pattern of failure by Lawton, Habitat and HUD to respond in any form of timely or professional manner. The leaking roof first reported in June 2006 that is still leaking is just one proof of failure. I, also, told you of the issues of reported identity theft and illegal attempts to access my VA and Army medical and financial records. This is not something done by accident but is done on purpose. It is a Federal Crime. It is for all of the potential illegal and criminal issues that I told you of, and have been reported in my many communications to HUD, that I suggested that HUD ask the US Attorney or FBI to become involved and investigate. They have subpoena and search warrant power to get Habitat and Lawton files. As I told you, in response to your question of our safety, I think the Federal Government needs to re-locate our Family and belongings to a comparable new handicapped home in an area outside of the Southwest in that HUD in Oklahoma and Texas, as well as in Washington, have failed in their fiduciary responsibility. As I told you, we learned after moving here that this area where we were placed is considered a very high high crime area. I further told you that we have had to call the Police when gun shots were fired outside our bedroom windows. It appears that complaints were made about this being an illegal and Predatory practice and that Habitat and a member of the City worked to keep it quiet. While I am ready to work with you, I think a Federal Law Enforcement Agency is now required. Too much has been allowed to happen to us due to the many ongoing and documented failures of HUD, the City of Lawton and Habitat. There were many other issues of possible illegal and/or criminal acts that we discussed that are too numerous to mention here. Suffice it to say that the issues are many and very serious. A final note, perhaps you need to read all of the information that I have provided to HUD before you do anything. A complete review of all of the information, including the report by State Licensed Architect Strider, should be done so all issues are known. As I mentioned to you, and in my many communications to HUD, we demand that only State or Federal Licensed Structural Engineers, Architects and construction experts be used. We will not allow anybody associated in any manner with Habitat in that is a conflict of interest. We gave Habitat ten months to make required repairs and they failed. If we allow unlicensed and un-qualified people to make repairs to our home our homeowners insurance and manufacturers warranties will be voided. Due to the improper installation, in violation of the written instructions in the owners manuals, of some items, some warranties have already been voided. Thank you.
