How this record is built
Public records from Miami-Dade County, the State of Florida and federal agencies; court filings; the administrative hearing record; photographs and field evidence; and firsthand experience. Where a document is cited, it is linked or held in the Evidence Vault and Reports archive.
Each statement is presented as documented fact, allegation, inference, or unresolved question — and labeled as such. Allegations are the publisher's and have not been adjudicated unless a ruling is cited.
This site is published by the trustee of the Florida Land Trust that holds the property at the center of CLIV-20240048, a matter appealed to the Circuit Court (2025-000088-AP-01). Readers should weigh the material with that interest in mind and check the underlying records.
If you find an error, email info@miamidade.watch with the subject “Correction” and the source that shows it. Verified errors are corrected and the change is noted with its date.
Don't count on official channels. In our experience, there are no protections for whistleblowers at all. Whistleblower protection is a hoax. Government's first responsibility is to protect government, not the citizen. A whistleblower complaint filed by one of this site's writers went to the Governor of Florida and was passed from office to office until it reached the agency alleged to have engaged in wrongdoing. Act as if no protection exists. The only safe source is one who can't be identified.
- Assume every electronic device is watching. Phones, smartwatches, smart TVs, speakers, cars and laptops constantly scan for one another over Wi-Fi and Bluetooth and log who was near whom, where and when. Recordings and files carry identifying data. Together they leave an easy trail.
- Handwritten notes naming the record (date, file or case number, who wrote it) are safest; we can request the document ourselves as a public record. Remember that paper holds palm prints just as well as fingerprints.
- Send only material you are legally permitted to share.
