Kissimmee, Osceola County, Florida Airbnb Shooting: Holding the Indian Point HOA Accountable for Preventable Violence You came to Kissimmee for the Mecum Car Auction, a trip that should have been about a shared passion and a vacation in the Florida sun. Instead, your family is now forced to work through the aftermath of a triple homicide that occurred in the very place you were told was safe to sleep. When Douglas Kraft, Robert Kraft, and James Puchan were killed at an Indian Point subdivision rental, it was not just a random act of violence. It was the endpoint of a history of danger that was ignored by the people who had the power to stop it. Our trial team at Attorney911 takes Florida cases where families have been devastated by negligent security. Behind every block of this analysis stands a specialist—our corporate-structure analysts, our trauma-informed advocates, and our trial attorneys who know that “foreseeability” is the only word that matters in a Florida courtroom.

Florida Wrongful Death & Negligent Security Attorneys: Attorney911 Represents the Columbus Family of Three Men Killed in a Florida Triple Homicide, Holding Property Management and Owners Accountable for the Foreseeability of Criminal Acts, Ralph Manginello’s 27+ Years of Federal-Court Trial Practice, Lupe Peña the Former Insurance-Defense Insider Who Knows How the Claims Machine Values Fatal Premises Liability, We Secure Police Call Logs and Surveillance Footage Before the Overwrite Loop, Millions Recovered in Wrongful-Death Survivor Claims — Free 24/7 Consultation, No Fee Unless We Win, Hablamos Español, 1-888-ATTY-911

Behind the Crime: Why a Florida Property Owner May Be Responsible for a Shooting When a father is taken, and when a single afternoon ends in a triple homicide, the criminal justice system looks for the person who pulled the trigger. But as your family works through the immediate shock of this tragedy, the civil law looks at the “enablers”—the corporate property owners or managers who allowed their premises to become a hunting ground. If your loved one was killed on a commercial property in Florida, the law doesn’t just ask who committed the crime. It asks if the crime was foreseeable and if the property owner failed to protect their guests. This is the core of a wrongful death claim, and it is how families force massive corporations to finally invest in the security measures that could have saved lives. We look at cases like this not just as a tragedy, but as a failure of management. Property owners have a non-delegable duty to maintain a safe environment. When they ignore a pattern of local violence to save a few dollars on lighting or guards, they are choosing their profit margin over your family’s survival. Florida’s Wrongful Death Act…

The Push, the Slur, and the Ramming: A Security Guard’s Worst Shift at a Polk County Resort You came to work expecting a shift. The polo shirt at the front desk was supposed to be a guest with a question about the rodeo. Instead, the night gave you a hand in your chest, a racial slur in your ear, and the back of your patrol car being rammed by a man who told you he was a Miami police officer. He was not. He was a Chicago police officer, off duty, more than a thousand miles from his beat, and the Polk County Sheriff’s Office has him in custody on a battery charge with a hate-crime enhancement under Florida Statute § 775.085. This page is written for the security guard, the family of the security guard, and any Florida worker who has been pushed, threatened, or racially abused by a guest or stranger with a badge. We sit on your side of the table. We work these cases in Florida. We are Ralph Manginello and Lupe Peña of Attorney911 — The Manginello Law Firm, PLLC — and the rest of this page is the legal machinery that sits behind what…

A Stranger Walked Into Your Hotel Room Because the Front Desk Handed Him the Key You closed the bathroom door for what should have been a private moment. You were in a room you paid for, behind a lock you trusted, in a city where millions of tourists check in every week expecting the same basic thing: that the only people who can open that door are the ones you let in. Then the door opened, and a stranger stood in the doorway. You screamed. Or you froze. Or both. Your roommate — the one who confronted two men who should never have been there — heard herself asking “What are y’all doing in here? Who are y’all?” And the men, who had a room key the front desk gave them, slowly backed out. The sick mother down the hall had already locked her door against someone trying to get in earlier that day. You were the second attempt that same afternoon. The desk clerk at a Miami hotel, in a building that bills itself as a place of rest and refuge, handed two unidentified men a key card programmed for your room because one of them said the name…

A Wet Floor at a Disney Pool, a Hard Fall, and the Questions You Cannot Stop Asking You saved for years for this trip. You flew the family to Orlando. You checked into Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge – Kidani Village, a Deluxe Villa resort billed as a “deluxe” experience, the kind of place where the company that brands itself the standard-bearer of American family entertainment charges premium rates precisely because guests are supposed to feel that someone is watching out for the details. You walked out near the Samawati Springs Pool area, and on a floor that should not have been a hazard, your foot went out from under you. The fall was sudden and without warning, and you heard and felt things move inside your body that should not move. When the paramedics arrived, when the Cast Member handed you the incident paperwork, and when you flew home to Broward County, the same question kept surfacing: Why was that floor wet? And why was no one watching? The lawsuit filed in December 2025 against Walt Disney Parks and Resorts, U.S., Inc. asks that exact question, and on behalf of one Broward County guest, the answer is being forced into…

The Phone Call That Comes at 4 a.m. The phone rings and the voice on the other end is someone you love, or someone calling because of someone you love. The words come out in pieces. Someone is dead. The police are at the motel. He was in his forties. They found him in the parking lot. There were gunshots, more than one round, then a pause, then more rounds. He never made it back to the room. If this is your family right now, we are sorry. We have sat at too many of these kitchen tables to pretend the next few words will help. They will not help the way you need. But they will tell you what is true, and what is coming, and who has to answer for it, and how to keep the evidence that will decide your case from disappearing before the sun comes up. On May 7, 2026, around 3 a.m., a man in his forties was found dead in the parking lot of the Midtown Lodge on Philips Highway in Jacksonville, Florida. The Jacksonville Sheriff’s Office responded after motel management called and reported hearing gunfire. Officers found the man suffering from multiple…

When a Motel Shooting Wasn’t Random: The Two Incidents, the Same Man, and the Duty the Properties Owed We are sitting with you. Maybe it was your brother, your son, your partner, the man you had known for years. He survived a shooting at a motel in Hialeah, and four months later he was killed at a different motel in Miami. The same man is charged in both. The same woman was at the door of the room both times. The criminal case against Jean Felix Fuentes-Gonzalez is now in the hands of a judge, and the man he is accused of killing cannot wait for that case to finish. That is why you are reading this page. We exist for exactly this moment. A wrongful death case built on two motel shootings is not a single-incident case. It is two separate events, two separate properties, two separate sets of security decisions, and one continuous chain of conduct that ties them together. Each motel owed a duty of care. Each motel failed in a way that has to be investigated. And the gap between August 2023 and February 2024 — the months your loved one was alive, recovering, trying to…

Your Child Was Shot at a House Party in Osceola County. Here Is What Happens Next. You did not expect to be reading this. Someone you love — a seventeen-year-old — went to what was supposed to be a party at a rented house in Kissimmee or Celebration or one of the other Osceola County subdivisions, and the next contact was a sheriff’s deputy telling you they were gone. The shooter has not been named. No arrests have been made. The investigation is open. And you are sitting in a silence no one can fix. We want to say three things before anything else. First, we are sorry. Second, you did not lose your child because of bad luck alone — a rented house in a residential neighborhood was turned into an unmonitored late-night event, and that is a chain of decisions someone made for profit, and the law gives you a way to hold each link in that chain responsible. Third, this page will tell you exactly what that means, what your rights are under Florida law, who can be sued, how much time you have, what evidence is disappearing right now, and what our firm does when a…

A 17-Year-Old’s Life Ended Inside a Gated Community — What His Family Can Do Now The grandmother is right: nobody should have to stand in a hospital corridor for hours waiting to learn whether the child they raised will live. And the pain does not end when the machines go quiet. It changes shape. It becomes the empty bedroom, the Marine recruiter’s unanswered call, the birthday that will come without him. We have sat across kitchen tables from families in this exact moment, and we have learned that what they need most in the first seventy-two hours is not sympathy — it is a clear, honest map of what the law actually allows them to do. We are Attorney911. We work these cases. If your family lost a child, a parent, or a partner to a shooting at a short-term rental, a house party, or anywhere else in Kissimmee or anywhere in Florida, the page below tells you, in plain English, what the law says, who can be held responsible, what evidence exists and how fast it disappears, and what your family can actually recover. There is no charge to talk. We work on contingency, so you owe us nothing…

You Got the Call at 2 a.m. The phone rang and the voice on the other end told you your seventeen-year-old child had been shot at a house party in Kissimmee. By the time you reached the hospital, or the medical examiner’s office, or the sidewalk where deputies were stringing tape, you had already been failed once — by whoever decided that a short-term rental full of teenagers, late at night, with no security, no supervision, and a firearm on the premises, was a circumstance anyone with money should have allowed to happen. You are reading this because a stranger on the internet is telling you the law has a name for what was done to your child, and a way to find out who is responsible. That is true. It is also true that the days immediately after a child’s death are when the most important evidence in the case is either saved or lost forever. So we are going to tell you what the law says, who the responsible parties are, what you must do in the next seventy-two hours, and how we work — in that order. Past results depend on the facts of each case and…
