Heading: The Toilet

Text: 6 According to Otero, Boyd approached her on July 23, 1996 and said he had a maintenance emergency requiring a new toilet to replace an inoperable one in a Greene Homes apartment. Boyd told her there were no toilets in their on-site stockroom and that they would need to obtain one from BHA's central warehouse. At that time, the BHA delivery truck assigned to Greene Homes was being repaired. Colon, who was present during Otero's conversation with Boyd, offered to drive Otero in his truck to get the toilet from the warehouse. 7 Otero went to the warehouse with Colon, obtained the toilet components, and filled out a requisition form for those components ( i.e., bowl, tank, and seat). Otero and Colon loaded the boxed components (collectively the toilet) into Colon's truck and took them back to Greene Homes. As they were arriving, Otero received a radio call from Wells, asking her to go to the Greene Homes maintenance office to address another urgent maintenance problem. Otero therefore had Colon drop her off at that office; she directed him to place the toilet in the maintenance shop until time for its installation. 8 The next day, Otero asked Boyd and Colon about the toilet, and Boyd said the problem had been taken care of. It is unclear, however, precisely what happened to that toilet.
