Contrary to the sincere, quasi-objective, caring, civil image Christopher T. Barone tries so hard to project in his videos, his threatening & intimidating emails to attorneys, vendors, Board members & members reveal his true nature. See the truth for yourself from just the few examples of his emails below. Note: The names of the attorneys, vendors and people mentioned in the emails have been redacted, and most of the subject lines of the emails deleted. The vulgar and foul words were spelled out by Christopher T. Barone in his emails, but redacted here in the examples below. Except for the vulgar and foul language redactions, the emails are as Barone sent them including his grammatical errors and typos.

Please forward to Honorable Judge XXX[Judge’s name]. You a**h*les (not

Please see the attached filing. I am getting transcripts and audio-enhanced of this conversation for you all. XXX [Attorney’s name], you are a real piece of sh*t [redacted] but to be honest, I always knew that about you but for some reason I really wanted to see the good person I know you can be. It's a great life lesson and one I am happy to learn now opposed to later.
XXX [2nd Attorney’s name], be advised, you probably already know this but Michael Allan played you and now wants to work with XXX [3rd Attorney’s name].
PS
I may or may not be bcc'ing XXX [4th Attorney’s name] & XXX [5th Attorney’s name] on this one.

XXX [names of the Vendor’s employees], I want both of you ladies and your proud organization to understand the consequences of your actions within our association. The XXX [name of the Vendor] has been rag-dolled around as the many recall errors were made and your name is associated with them. The fact you thought you could get away with such carelessness and disregard for our recall and election process is insulting. As such, I can assure you both you and your attorney will be hearing more from me and the many other homeowners who are appalled by discontent you helped foster in our HOA. I doubt any hold harmless clause (if offered) by the financiers of this failed coup d'etat will help you gain the respectability you just lost.
Shame on you.
Sincerely,
Chris Barone

This one is making XXX [Attorney’s name] a little nervous huh XXX [Attorney’s name]? You pissed off the wrong one. XXX [2nd Attorney’s name], on a scale of 1-10 how proud of XXX [Attorney’s name] are you? You tried to strong arm me one too many times and I am going to make you pay for that. Keep talking to GPL agents Hal Siegel and Michael Allan and I will have all of you in hemmed up, looking for a hitman to get me.
XXX [3rd Attorney’s name], get how ASAP...this is going to get very ugly.

Cha Ching! That's $2,000,000. This guy thought he had a contract until 2050. He actually says that. SMH. He will be lucky if he isn't sentenced to prison until 2050. Don't worry, there will be discovery in the criminal case too. :)

I told XXX [Attorney’s name] many times this XXX@gmail was clearly the LLHOA account and gave him the information regarding XXX [person’s name] working for the HOA for several years before dirty XXX [2nd person’s name] hired her. Anyway, this could help in your evidentiary hearing so I wanted to pass this along.
The problem you have is there wasn't anything of attorney-client privilege in the XXX@gmail account. Something I told XXX [Attorney’s name] about 1000x and if on the off chance there was your client would have to know because he would have been CC'd of sent it himself. Either way, the fact your client was seen destroying and stealing our HOA documents will be fun for you to defend. It's a good thing XXX [person’s name] gave me the email information to our account, XXX [2nd person’s name] was paying for her XXX treatments and then started threatening not to if she didn't do as he asked. I remember being the man she hugged as tears ran down her face in her office. You are all a**h*les and (except XXX [2nd Attorney’s name]) for all the lies and bullsh*t you perpetuated to destroy me and my family. F**k you. [foul words redacted]

XXX [Vendor’s name],
As we discussed on the phone you are no longer providing security services to our country club. You also said Lordon was paying you, you must have had the contract with them since you undermined my authority, changed passcodes for my employees and myself. A stupid decision on your part. If I ever see a XXX [vendor] employee or vehicle on my property ever again, there will be serious problems for you and XXX [vendor]. You have officially been notified. Lastly, be advised I am in possession a letter of the agency from the Lost Hills/Malibu Sheriff’s station to have you and/or any member of your company arrested for trespassing.
Believe me now?

Christopher T. Barone CEO & Chairman Lake Lindero Country Club

To: [vendor]
XXX [Vendor’s name],
Just an FYI. LORDON was fired in December and no longer is associated with the Lake Lindero Country Club. As such, any interaction you have with them regarding our business will be seen as hostile to myself and the board of directors. Hal Siegel and Michael Allan are imposters and will be dealt with as they have been for the last year. Do not be fooled as you know how this will end. Don’t ruin a long term relationship unless you doubt the outcome.

You have been fired and you have embezzled our money, you have misappropriated our funds, you failed to send my compensation and that of my employees and you will pay dearly for being so stupid. You have been made aware of your idiotic attempts to undermine me and the board, you dumb attorneys have been made aware and they have all backed away. See you soon.

12. Financial harassment and threat
From: [employee at Lordon Management] Sent: Monday, February 03, 2020 11:25 AM To: [Lordon Management & Board Director] Subject: Owner Called
Hi this poor owner called crying today as she got a letter from Chris and he left a message on her phone if she didn’t pay the hoa through him (chris) they were going to lien her home and they could take it away (her home). We reassured her that they cannot do that and that she is current through January and to send the payments as normal in her lordon envelope. She is going to try to find the letter – she said her neighbor was contacted and gave them their payments as they were afraid to lose their home. She said many people have said that they were contacted and they are afraid of him especially since they had heard that he beat up that man at the clubhouse.

Mr. Siegel, I understand you have been telling my employees you are in charge and you are signing their paychecks around 3:30pm today also Martin Luther King Holiday. You are interfering with my work, my compensation, and my employees. Here is a little piece of advice, they know you aren't in charge of anything at the Lake Lindero Country Club for 2 reasons: 1. Leaders don't have to tell them who they are. 2. Anyone who says "I sign your paychecks" is an a**h*le especially when you don't. [foul word redacted]
As you can tell from the responses from my employees, they will not be speaking to you. You are hereby notified this constitutes workplace harassment against me and my employees. Although you may believe your handlers will pay for your defense you are breaching your fiduciary obligations as a director on the board.
Sincerely,
Chris Barone

14. Threat of criminal prosecution
From: thectb Date: Sun, Jan 12, 2020 at 7:16 AM Subject: Payments To: [Board members and HOA member]
Mr. Siegel,
As you know, I am the CEO of the Lake Lindero Country Club and it has been brought to my attention that you are approving invoices on the Lordon Portal that you have no right or reason to be signing. If you continue to act in the capacity of an authorized director, I will ensure you are help accountable for your mistakes.
You are to take your name off of every approval especially the $15,000 Wolk & Levine receipt. As you know Wolk & Levine admitted to the court THEY have a conflict of interest in our case and by you paying them and you having a conflict of interest in the same case you will be held criminally responsible for your actions.
You are to recuse yourself from all votes and payments concerning everything legal and I highly suggest you speak with your attorney before you get yourself into more trouble than you think. You know absolutely nothing about what is going on but I can promise you this much involving yourself in legal matters that you are specifically not to be involved in is illegal. Final Warning.
Sincerely,
Chris Barone

From: thectb Date: Mon, Mar 9, 2020 at 7:35 AM To: [Board members and HOA member]
Gentlemen,
I have been informed that an illegal meeting was held yesterday at the restaurant and there is another illegal meeting being held today. I wanted to ensure you that the court has not made a decision on the validity of the election and when they, in fact, don't validate it, I will be injunctive relief immediately for all money wasted. The fact that the imposters can't even balance a simple budget and already have to begin their depletion of our reserve account proves the ineptitude. Lastly, I want to update you call regarding our case and contrary to what Michael Allan and/or anyone else has been claiming this case is in no way favoring the plaintiff's, in fact after today and after my testimony later this week, it will highly unlikely (from my perspective) that the court will be compelled to verify the election. Prompting the court to take action when the court seeks the status quo is a high burden and one the plaintiffs didn't meet.
Please be advised I have been made aware that Hal Siegel, Harriet Cohen and Michael Allan kicked out Judee White under the false claim a TRO against her prohibits her from attending. This too will be addressed in a separate case against the imposters.
Sincerely,
Chris Barone

17. Business interference, business harassment, libelous statements
From: thectb Date: Mon, Mar 23, 2020 at 6:26 AM Subject: Closure of Golf Course and Country Club To: [Board members and HOA member] Cc: [Board member]
Dear BoD,
It has come to my attention that the most junior director of the board doesn't understand his role and is still pretending to be the LLHOA President. This is odd given the fact he is a party to a lawsuit that proves he isn't. He is also oblivious to the right's we as owners have to be on our property and as such continue to conduct business. I also have received information from someone that a member named Harriet Cohen sent out an email with misinformation and lies. Oddly he doesn't understand that maintenance of the golf course wouldn't apply to his own (albeit wrong) definition to the "state order".
Please ensure that during these already difficult times that members and junior directors who are also acting in the capacity as my supervisor are not creating such horrid work conditions for myself and that of our employees and volunteer staff.
Thank you,
Christopher T. Barone
CEO & Chairman of Litigation
Lake Lindero Country Club/HOA
