Will Chain Bridge road shooting become a national story about DC crime?

I was intrigued by the moniker Giuseppe Garibaldi Family.

Owned by a holding company?
Multiple private security firms?

This is clearly someone with enemies, and he's bringing his problems to DC.


Lots of plain ol regular rich people own their homes through a trust or holding company. This is quite common.

Yes - we own our homes in different LLCs, but not common to have private security (we own a home close to this one)

No, in fact it says the opposite to me, targeted hit of rich persons property. Probably disaffected employee, organized crime, or someone with a personal grudge against the security staff member.

If I lived even right next door I wouldn't be concerned.

We have a house nearby and I can’t think of one family that has security. There’s a reason they felt like they needed it, and it has nothing to do with DC


I live nearby too and many have security. What are you talking about?

They really do not. I’ve lived nearby since the 80s and know practically every house. There are a few diplomats with security snd occasionally there will be an administration appointee with secret service and in the late 80s there was a neighborhood watch type setup, but that’s it.


I am not talking specifically about just Chainbridge. There are people with security who live nearby and around Battery K park. So yes they really do. Things have changed since the 80s.

Thanks - I own a home nearby and walk the area daily. Grew up there in the 80s. Things have changed for the better since then. As much as you say it’s true, it’s really not about the security. I could tell you who lives in pretty much every home in the neighborhood

Nope. You are thinking of chain bridge rd in McLean, not really any Saudis in chain bridge in nw

The number of wannabes and poseurs on this thread is hysterical.

It’s quite clear who isn’t a resident of the area, doesn’t have a clue about the neighborhood, and believes in a Hollywoodized version of rich people. 😆

All we are talking about is who has security teams, so it is about security. And they have it. In place. Right now. I live there too.

OMG just stop. Noone normal (e.g. not inclding foreign or domestic govt officials) who lives in Palisades, Kent, Wesley Heights, Berkeley, etc… has a security team. It’s just not a thing for normal rich people. Stop with the bs.

Define “normal” rich people. Are you discounting the billionaires and near billionaires? I am not talking Big Law partners or even private equity people who recently built $20 million dollar homes. I would give the addresses but of course can’t. There are many people in those very areas that have security teams who are not in government or foreign officials. You clearly are not aware. Why would I make it up and why would you doubt?

And clearly the security teams are good because Trixie Knowitall isn’t even aware of them!

NP. Does the security service in Phillips Park count? How about the live ins at a couple of homes in that vicinity you wouldn’t know were ex-Secret Service unless you visited? Is this just parked in front 24-7 types? Drive through on one of the main roads and you will see a security truck outside of their gate right now.

Because I live here! I’ve lived in this neighborhood for over 20 years. My kids went to area private schools, our church is in Georgetown, we belong to various clubs, and I know to s if people. Private Secuirty is NOT a common thing in these neighborhoods. Of course there are a few outlier, as with anything, but it’s very uncommon and not normal. Stop trying to make it seem common.

Everyone knows where the houses you are talking about are. But they are outliers. Not common.

It sounds like the property is currently under construction and a single security officer was guarding the construction site for the house owned by the LLC. This is actually quite common with larger commercial builds and legit mansions. Construction sites are a magnet for thieves - steal copper and raw metals, tools, expensive marble, appliances, etc.

The LLC is used when the owners are worried about liability. If they own a business and get sued & lose, the separate LLC for the house means the house can't get seized to pay off business-related liabilities.
