The Dawsons and friend have been accused of bullying. Isabel was charged out of state. It seems to me they have orchestrated/manipulated the renovations. Now Donald Cappocia will dump another luxury building. I'm really glad that they will be making out. Funny thing, Isabel is an ambassador to the LES Girl's Club. The Dawsons need to be investigated, and what's up with this other guy.
