She was due in court today (october 19, 2009) for a TWENTY MILLION dollar lawsuit. Fire officials say it wasnt suspicious, I think otherwise. But who am I? HA!
it's terrible that this woman died. But.. why are there so many Russians living in NYC owned properties like NYCHA houses?
It looks like somebody owed someone a favor. We'll hear more about it as time passes.
She was not russian she was polish.
