Palm Beach housekeeper: I slept with the dogs!

[FknKraze]

The Haruvis at Mar-a-Lago
A 65-year-old domestic worker employed by Mar-a-Lago members Abe and Giovanna Haruvi filed a lawsuit alleging she suffered stomach-churning humiliation and abuse at the hands of the missus.
Things allegedly unraveled on Irma Diaz‘ first day on the job when, Diaz claims, she was made to sleep in a small basement service room already occupied by two dogs that wouldn’t leave.
Diaz contends the only shower she could use was the one in which the animals were trained to potty!
Now, the bad news: Diaz eventually found out the previous housekeeper who slept on the same mattress in the same service room developed tuberculosis.
To escape the pooches and the uneasiness of a communicable disease, Diaz ended up sleeping on the kitchen floor of the Haruvi’s $1.5 Palm Beach million-mansion just north of Donald Trump’s private club
A domestic worker with various local families for the past 10 years and a legal immigrant, Diaz said she was hired in July after an interview process in which New York real estate developer Abe Haruvi and his wife “appeared to be kind.”
But soon, Diaz’ schedule became back-breaking, with 6 a.m starts and frequent 19-hour shifts. Diaz says she wasn’t allowed to break or eat until after the Haruvis retired for the night.


Defendant Giovanna Haruvi would even watch the plaintiff on her security system through her cellular phone and berate her if she was seen eating anything, ” according to the suit brought last week ina Palm Beach County circuit court. Diaz hid bread, rice and beans and soda in the room so she could sneak a few bites during the day.
Three weeks after she started, Diaz claims, new mother Giovanna Haruvi was swimming in the pool when she screamed that she’d been bitten by a snake. She ordered Diaz to jump in the pool to help her, but Diaz refused because she can’t swim.
When she finally got out, Giovanna Haruvi alleged grabbed Diaz by the shoulders and screamed as she shook her. That was, according to Diaz, the first of several alleged incidents when things between the women got physical.
Now, Diaz wants to get paid for assault, battery and infliction of emotional distress.
She claims she lost 5 pounds in the 10 weeks she worked for the Haruvis, which came to an end after Diaz was admitted at Jackson Mental Health Hospital in Miami after a suicide attempt.
“The actions were atrocious and utterly intolerable in a civilized society,” wrote Diaz’ lawyer, Michael Walrath. He didn’t return calls for comment and no phone numbers are listed for Diaz. But an insider familiar with the case said Walrath checked into Diaz’ story before filing and is confident she’s telling the truth about her experience at the Haruvi household.
No one picked up the phone at the Haruvis home Monday and no lawyer was listed as representing them on the case. They have yet to respond to the filing.

I call bullshit.
If she's legal, and been here 10 years, she could have gone to a prior family for help. I'm not saying she's lying about all of it, but hell, if she had been hit, she'd have known to call PBSO.

[gee]

Yeah... I'm not sure I buy all that shit either. It's not like they were holding her immigration status over her head!

[TwiztidAngel]

the accusations are un-fucking-believable!! had i been hired and ordered to sleep with dogs, use the dog's potty to shower in, been subjected to sleeping on a biohazard mattress that forced me to instead sleep on a fucking kitchen floor you best believe i woulda been outta there that same day and reported their asses to Human Relations or whoever the hell it is you call to report detrimental working conditions!

no job is worth all that! i think she's just tryin to milk them people for a lot of loot cuz she got pissed...i do not believe none of the shit she is accusing them of!!

What sort of degenerate would force their poor sweet puppies to sleep with a domestic servant? This is a case of animal cruelty.

[AngelFire]

I have to agree with Amazon on this one...Had she been illegal I can see why she may have put up with this "abuse". However, since they mentioned she is legal, I am wondering why she felt that she needed to stay? That's assuming I believe her story which I am still on the fence about. So I don't think we will really know the exact truth. If she was indeed abused as she states, the employer will never cop to it, and if she is lying, she will never admit it....

If you see how the Haruvi's treat us tenants in NYC you can believe the housekeeper !! I have been a Haruvi tenant for years, had to put up with Roaches, mice, holes in ceiling and floors,no heat and no hot water in the evenings and sky high rent. I have called their office many times and they always say they will get back to us but they never do. I have had holes in my ceilings for years and right now I am waiting til morning so I can get what little hot water there is for a shower....and us tenants go without so the Haruvis can be posers in the Palm Beach social clubs...that is the TRUTH BE TOLD!!!

Yesterday was Linda Lovelaces birthday. Little known fact, in 1969 her first film was "Dog Fucker". An epic where she got busy with a German shepard.

I can't help but wonder why you've put up with this for so long. Almost calling "bullshit" here

I'm curious as to why you continue to wait other than reporting them. Shit is hinky. If you honestly have roaches, mice, holes in the ceiling and floors, no heat and no hot water, that's basic standard of living and health hazards. You are a dumbass for dealing with it for years. And just to satisfy my curiosity, how did you end up with holes in your ceiling and floors???? Heat is a utility. Is it supposed to be included in your rent? A faulty hot water tank can elicit carbon monoxide (which can kill you) and pose other risks depending on what's wrong with it. Why would you wait it out?

Y'all can reserve judgement, but I will call bullshit now because if it's not bullshit, it's called a dumbshit.

And this was a long forgotten thread, do you have any new info you would like to add, such as a final outcome to this? If not, all you've managed to do is drudge up an old thread and make yourself look like an imbecile.
