Report
I have been living in Shepherd Park for several years. It is a property of Schochet companies. The employees enter into my apartment without my authorization when I am outside. No one care about serious issues in Schochet companies. Especially regarding Shepherd Park. Some security guards behave like clowns because they are friends of the management.
