Could the managers of the Hidden Woods Apartments complex be held accountable for a body found inside a car on their property?<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Negligent Security Law<\/h2>\n
When property owners ignore obvious criminal behavior and fail to take efforts to keep control of who has access to their property, they may be creating an environment that invites additional crime. Under Georgia law, property owners may be held liable if they do not take reasonable measures to prevent foreseeable crimes.<\/p>\n
A History of Crime at Hidden Woods Apartments<\/h2>\n
Online reviews<\/a>\u00a0discuss the culture of crime and gunplay at the property. One resident complains that criminals \u201chang outside and shoot at night or in the day.\u201d Another resident complains that contractors threw away their personal possessions and the agents of management stopped communicating with them after their \u201cceiling fell.\u201d A resident complains that management doesn\u2019t care if people break into apartments as long as rent is paid. Another website<\/a> details similar complaints, including frequent gunfire noting, \u201cthey are always shooting.\u201d Another urges potential residents that \u201cthis place is not safe for kids.\u201d<\/p>\n
Only Crime Victims Can Demand Justice<\/h3>\n
Property managers are required by law to take reasonable measures to prevent foreseeable crimes. It is up to the families of victims of violent crime to stand up to property owners and demand accountability in a court of law. If we can compel landlords to improve security on their properties, then we can help Make Atlanta Safe, one community at a time.<\/p>\n
