Is he paying.
 
How do we know he is paying his fees. Maybe they reduced them for his lack of use of the facilities.

I would like to weigh in on this, but I must prioritize my ponderings and now the following are ahead of this topic:
Which arm rest is mine in the movie theater?
Why does an Allstate insurance policy carry the caveat, "Not available in all states."?
Do astronauts change the clock every time they enter a new time zone?
How did Noah find penguins in Mesopotamia?

He's been around for many years. Called himself "Richard Gere" for a long time.
He's got a long rap sheet, including felonies and has filed many law suits against municipalities.

He's not deranged - just a troublemaker.

Do you suppose this is the same guy? This activity is in Illinois about 20 years ago.

The articles about Mr. Hendricks are from early 1997. His age was listed as 60 in one of the articles from 1997. His current age was listed as 79 from the article in one of the previous posts so the age progression is correct. I would bet someone a beer (Leinenkugel Summer Shandy or Traveler Grapefruit Shandy) that this is the same man as the person from Mt. Prospect, IL listed in the 1997 articles. Mt. Prospect is only about 9 miles from the suburb that I have lived in for many years :eek: If it is the same man, I am sorry that TV inherited him from Chicagoland.

He doesn't play well with others it seems.

The villages own the rec centers and pools. There are restrictions in your deed, I'm sure one of them is Thou shall not act like an idiot.

Hope he doesn't own guns.

Don't worry. If he's a felon, it is illegal for him to possess guns.

I hope he does not drive a truck!

I don;t believe that people want to be unhappy but rather they do not know how to be happy. Perhaps if not a medical condition, then perhaps whatever tragedy(s) that came into his life he has not been able to properly process it. He appears to be in a lot of mental pain. He needs professional help and I say that with great empathy for this guy. I pray there is someone in his life looking out for him. Having said that its clear people should not have to carry his burdens or be subjected to his rants, etc

For most of us life is sorrow so we understand that when joy enters our life we grab hold of it quickly and hold it as long as we can

Good point! put i am still wondering what he is so ****ed about?

Why not counter sue this guy for legal expenses if his suits are frivolous? What if Lady Lake decides they want to ban him from driving on their roads? Strange.

there are no frivolous lawsuit laws in Florida like other states. this is why auto insurance and umbrella's are so costly in Florida.
In another words if you Bring frivolous lawsuits in other states the defendant can sue back for attorney fee,s

Here we go again !


From the other Villages news source

A 79-year-old Villager has been arrested for the third time this year for trespassing on Villages property.

Richard Hendricks was arrested at 6:38 p.m. Friday at Spanish Springs Town Square by Lady Lake police.

Hendricks has been barred from all Villages property.

After Hendricks was arrested in July when he showed up at the Orange Blossom Hills Country Club swimming, The Villages sent him a followup letter reminding he was barred from all facilities.

He was also arrested in March after showing up on Villages property.

He is free on $1,000 bond after being booked at the Lake County Jail.

Upon reading about terrible disasters that happened I often wonder if there was any forewarning.

Some folks behave outside the perimeters of what is considered normal behavior, but that in itself is not actionable.

Nor have we been raised to be intolerant of those that are emotional or mentally ill.

Sometimes there are problems with no easy solutions, so most of us fall back on common sense and try to avoid the problem if we can.

And pray. Some of us pray.

There does not seem to be cause for that. He has to be a danger to himself or others.

It will be interesting to see what happens when these 3 trespassing charges come before the court. As far as if he is dangerous to others you all should read the following post of FB to see if you think he might be

Suzie Casta - Tony Barck did you see?? | Facebook

The last time we were there for a preview in July, we made friends with a couple that lives on the same street as him. We love the location and their house. They are considering buying another home in TV in the future and we are planning on moving there in about 18 months. It was a great match for all of us and we will be the first people they notify instead of going through a realtor when they want to sell their home.. With all that I have read about this guy, it would definitely give me pause of buying a house on that street if he is still living there at the time. With a simple search you can find this guy has been arrested by Lake County 8 times since 2007. We had a similar experience many years ago with a next door neighbor here in NC and after she was arrested 6 times for threatening a coworker. She was finally thrown in jail and sold her house. It is strange to walk outside your house and see 6 police cars in front of and around your neighbor's home and her being perp walked to a cruiser. It was even weirder to go for a walk and run into her since you never knew how she would react. I don't want to knowingly move into a neighborhood with a person like this residing within a stone's throw away. We will have to see the circumstances when we get the call from them that they are ready to sell.

Today's online news reports that the Town of Lady Lake's "vexatious litigant" Richard Hendricks has filed suit against Villages Director of Recreation John Rohan and head of the Entertainment Department Brian Russo because he has been banned from Villages activities. He is seeking $4,999 in damages.

jjdees 09-06-2016 02:37 PM

Sounds like he's more than a few short of a dozen. Obviously needs some serious help.

How about the attorneys that stand to represent this idiot.

Based on the monetary award he's seeking I think he represents himself.

Call Rocco & Vito for a little motivational conversation! Lol.

Gpsma 09-08-2016 09:51 AM

Not that I advocate any violence but Nucky is on to something here.

I have seen where associates of Rocco & Vito LLP have successfully intervened in a calm and professional manner to stop offensive behavior.
Sorta like the scene from the Sopranos where Tony educates a young man that wearing a hat in a restaurant is innapropriate.

I agree that there weren't a lot of specifics, but "an incident with a knife" at the library would seem like enough to me.
