The lawsuit also names the Consolidated Edison utility as a defendant, accusing it of failing to have proper safety devices.

Dumb question, what safety device would prevent deliberate tampering? And if it is deliberate tampering, why would the utility be liable?

I'm curious also considering he physically opened the pipes up and rerouted them into the room. What do they really expect?

Their lawsuit against Con-Ed is just frivilous. Con-Ed ought to sue them back for harassment.
