WATE 6 are you aware of what is going on in Pigeon Forge. They have declared imminent domain on a property, demolished it on July 1, yet the family who owns it has not received a penny and still holds the mortgage to a now demolished house. The mayor watched this family renovate for seven months knowing they were going to change the route of a road and take the house. The Mayor told the family that he had no moral obligation to tell them. Please help this devastated family.
RUclips Pigeon Forge Imminent Domain where the Mother and son have been telling their story and pleading for help. If it happened to them it can happen to you.
Of course they lost it, you can’t fight the government and if you do and win. Well they will just try again a few years later. That’s how they win, use unlimited government funds and keep trying until you get the results you want.
If the government had a gunfight on their hands and lost a few government employees every time this happens, whether the property owner lives or not, this would stop.

Would a compromise of allowing TVA to lease the land they want to use at a monthly or yearly fee to the land owner work? The shed and dog kennels either get moved or new ones are built by TVA for the homeowner's use. The landowner keeps his land and TVA and the community get secured power.
They do not need 75 feet on both sides, they just want access to be easy and on their terms. The existing line is clearly on only one side of the utility poles and appears well maintained as is.
I’m a fan of your youtube channel and a subscriber, and I loved your eminent domain video on the corrupt Kelo vs New London case. I’m going through an eminent domain case myself where the city of Inglewood is using ED to take my property to give to Steve Ballmer, the 5th richest person, for his new Clippers arena! Definitely not for public use because he’s going to make money off the tickets. Ballmer bought the Forum from Madison Square Gardens because the owner threatened to fight Ballmer for his use of eminent domain to take the forum. So Ballmer didn’t want to deal with the headache and bought the Forum off the other billionaire because he knew he could have the city use ED to take the rest of the property he needed from small property owners like us. I was going to start exposing this on social media and wanted to get your advice, since you have som much experience. Thank you ahead of time for any advice and help and looking forward to your next video!
So it's not the government taking the land but a private corporation. Sounds like a politician got paid and you are getting screwed. Power company in new mexico is paying ridiculous $$ here to lease land for the wind turbine
Seems perfectly reasonable. People like having electric power and cell phone service, they just want someone else to give up their land for it. This is a big deal, that's why it's enshrined in our constitution.
The lady in Pigeon Forge also lost and her house that she just bought and had renovated has now been bulldozed. And even though the city technically owns the property now she has yet to see a penny and bank says her mortgage still remains and she is fully liable.
I’d tell them to do one them clearly have power lines so no need They’ve deposited it but it’s not been accepted by owners Why do they suddenly need 8 times the easement bullshit
I am sure someone did a title search, also bet realtor and the sellers knew yet signed swearing no adverse issues were known... Title search company needs to be held responsible, realtor needs to be held responsible and closing agent needs to be held responsible. The finance company should be holding these peoples feet to the fire... the mayor will claim immunity unless a paper trail is found showing he personally profited. The bank or finance co isnt going to worry as long as those $3000 a month payments roll in... in essence the house was taken by a separate entity and the deed was transferred to them.. banks security is gone. A good atty could win this one. The mayor needs a few thousand peacefully protesting his ill will to residents.

Eminent domain needs to be banned.
By the government that wants to use it? That's rich.

Too late after this was used to steal land from black farmers. You allow 1 inch they will take it all.
$10 is a GIANT middle finger
Hire the Institute for Justice
Just like to get old days that took the land frommmm the Indians

They haven't received a penny because they turned down a 539k offer on a 301k property. Was you aware of that?
He is just an example of corruption.
For those curious, he lost the battle and TVA won.
Thats crazy

Government employees=soldiers. You gonna fight the US military tough guy?
Nah. It would not stop. You don't even hear of all the mass shootings that happen multiple times a day.
100% agree with you.
This is going on now in Pigeon Forge Tnn ,
that's plain illegal to begin with. only the government has the power to do that. it's illegal for a company to ask the government to do it for them
This is what the second amendment is for.
Go right ahead, see how that turns out for you
Enjoy your prison sentence
I would die and not alone. Fk the government. Enough of that and they'll stop pulling this sht. If they had a gunfight every time, they would give up.

How much of the $6.23 million did you get?
What's the update
Private property isn’t to be infringed & proper compensation is the propety value !
Which they was offered. 539k on a 300k house. They turned it down. That is on them
Why is this happening so much.. even today

The power co should be paying you to use your land for their power lines .
It’s crap. It belongs to me not “the people”.
