Neighbors: Corey Lewandowski Carried Baseball Bat, Threatened 'Nightmare'

In a new legal filing, Glenn and Irene Schwartz accuse Trump’s former campaign chief of bullying and intimidating them over a New Hampshire waterfront property dispute.

Former Trump campaign manager Corey Lewandowski cut off his neighbors’ electricity, threatened to use his political clout to make the neighbors’ lives “a nightmare,” and repeatedly stood outside his home with a baseball bat in a “threatening and intimidating gesture,” those neighbors claim in a new legal filing.

In July, Lewandowski filed a $5 million lawsuit against his Windham, New Hampshire, neighbors Glenn and Irene Schwartz, claiming they blocked his access to a path to one of his properties. The Schwartzes refuted Lewandowski’s claims in an Aug. 10 countersuit, in which they accused Lewandowski of bullying and intimidating them in order to gain access to the lot, where he allegedly planned to build a two-story, six-car garage without their knowledge.

Reached by phone, Lewandowski told The Daily Beast to ask the Schwartzes about the suit, then said he was in a bad area and asked to speak 30 minutes later. He did not return a call or voicemail at that time.

Lewandowski and the Schwartzes live next to a third property, which Lewandowski bought through an LLC called Reagan’s Rock. Until recently, the Reagan’s Rock lot was empty except for a “small camp style dwelling.” But in spring 2015, shortly after the the Schwartzes moved in, Lewandowski offered them a “land swap” under the pretext of giving him access to the campsite, the Schwartzes allege in their countersuit.

It soon became apparent that Lewandowski had bigger plans than visiting the cabin. In a phone call on the specifics of the land swap, Lewandowski allegedly grew angry, screaming that the deal did not “provide enough land and is not acceptable to my wife… do not disrespect her wishes.” Then he hung up, the Schwartzes say.
