run in Just as as as we
can. Shooter's gonna help come Dix is

00:00:20.600 --> 00:00:26.519
the Troubleshooter Show Now Tom Martino.
Hello, I'm Tom Martino. Welcome to

4
00:00:26.559 --> 00:00:30.160
the show. Three oh three seven
one three talk three oh three seven one

5
00:00:30.199 --> 00:00:33.920
three eight two five five. We
are here to help you solve problems,

6
00:00:33.960 --> 00:00:37.679
answer questions, take complaints. What
we do every single day and I've been

7
00:00:37.719 --> 00:00:41.399
doing more than forty five years.
We're trying to recover money, cash,

8
00:00:41.399 --> 00:00:46.600
merchandise, exchanges, refunds and services, whatever it is, or just educate,

9
00:00:46.640 --> 00:00:49.240
try to prevent problems. We have
people on the phone we'll get to

10
00:00:49.359 --> 00:00:51.600
right now, and I want to
just say, of course we have that

11
00:00:51.640 --> 00:00:55.399
Supreme Court ruling, feel free to
weigh in on that because that does affect

12
00:00:55.439 --> 00:00:59.880
all of us and basically it shut
down the entire country from state by state

13
00:01:00.079 --> 00:01:04.359
trying to take a political stand.
And of course how you interpret this totally

14
00:01:04.400 --> 00:01:07.640
depends on what side of the fence
you're on. It's amazing to me how

15
00:01:07.680 --> 00:01:11.519
the same story can be construed in
two different ways. It's just amazing.

16
00:01:11.680 --> 00:01:15.799
Now I'm not saying by the way
that I'm you know, I'm not trying

17
00:01:15.799 --> 00:01:19.799
to tell you how to believe.
I'm just saying how amazing to me it

18
00:01:19.920 --> 00:01:25.519
is that people can take a stand. I just want to listen. This

19
00:01:25.640 --> 00:01:30.760
is just one news story, real
quick. It's a news story about this

20
00:01:30.799 --> 00:01:40.239
and the way it the way it
really frames it frames it. Listen,

21
00:01:40.319 --> 00:01:45.120
listen. Here's what it says.
Here's the headline. And this is from

22
00:01:45.519 --> 00:01:48.519
a one news agency. I don't
even have to mention them. It's a

23
00:01:48.560 --> 00:01:53.040
news agency because there's both sides have
their own headlines. This one says major

24
00:01:53.159 --> 00:02:05.040
setback for democracy and insurrectionist allowed to
stay on ballot. Do you know I'd

25
00:02:05.040 --> 00:02:07.360
be fired if I ever. I
mean when I used to work for newspapers,

26
00:02:08.360 --> 00:02:12.280
radio, TV, all of the
news stations, all of the news

27
00:02:12.319 --> 00:02:15.280
stuff for years and years along with
consumer stuff. I did consumer news,

28
00:02:15.319 --> 00:02:20.400
of course, but man alive I
was an advocate. I got a special

29
00:02:21.479 --> 00:02:24.400
a dispensation, I guess this or
a special a break on that because I

30
00:02:24.400 --> 00:02:28.919
could give opinions when I found somebody
who was ripping somebody off. But when

31
00:02:28.919 --> 00:02:31.400
we were in the news part of
it, you couldn't take a stand like

32
00:02:31.439 --> 00:02:37.800
this. This is a news story
a news story, It says in here's

33
00:02:37.840 --> 00:02:42.400
the first paragraph in a major setback
for democracy, the US Supreme Court and

34
00:02:42.479 --> 00:02:47.000
Trump versus Anderson that ruled that Congress, rather than the States, is responsible

35
00:02:47.000 --> 00:02:52.439
for enforcing the fourteenth Amendment. That
really means Donald Trump is still eligible to

36
00:02:52.439 --> 00:03:00.599
appear on the Colorado ballot despite his
role in the January sixth insurrection. Anyway,

37
00:03:00.800 --> 00:03:04.120
I'm not going to belabor that.
You can comment. And if you

38
00:03:04.159 --> 00:03:07.439
want three oh three seven one three
talk seven one three eight two five five,

39
00:03:07.759 --> 00:03:09.800
whatever's on your mind, I want
to talk to you. We have

40
00:03:09.879 --> 00:03:15.599
real estate on our mind today too. Let's go right to right to Michael.

41
00:03:16.000 --> 00:03:21.479
Michael, what's going on with you
with your car toys? What's happening

42
00:03:21.680 --> 00:03:23.800
Michael. We don't get a lot
of good reports about car toys, but

43
00:03:23.840 --> 00:03:28.719
we haven't had complaints, to be
fair, we haven't had complaints in a

44
00:03:28.759 --> 00:03:34.879
while. So what's going on with
you? Yeah? Tom, this is

45
00:03:34.919 --> 00:03:39.039
an issue I've been dealing with since
October of twenty twenty three. What happened

46
00:03:39.039 --> 00:03:45.759
then? Uh, basically, there
was an employee there. Did you take

47
00:03:45.800 --> 00:03:50.919
your car to them in October?
Yes, sir? Okay? And what

48
00:03:51.400 --> 00:03:57.960
did you take it in for and
I took it in to have a dash

49
00:03:58.080 --> 00:04:05.319
install, which were required them to
adjust the steering component. And now,

50
00:04:05.360 --> 00:04:08.520
what do you mean you had a
dash install? Do you mean what?

51
00:04:08.520 --> 00:04:11.439
What? What exactly were you having
done? I don't know what you mean

52
00:04:11.479 --> 00:04:15.599
you had a dash install? I
had a digital dash install. So it's

53
00:04:15.599 --> 00:04:18.240
a it was an old plastic nineteen
sixty six Chevy and Paula. You know,

54
00:04:18.279 --> 00:04:23.240
so wait a minute, they so
they take out old analog and they'll

55
00:04:23.240 --> 00:04:28.600
put in digital gauges. Well they
did, I mean I don't know was

56
00:04:28.639 --> 00:04:31.720
it a removing replace or were you
upgrading or were you doing something custom?

57
00:04:32.879 --> 00:04:38.279
Uh? This was a custom upgrade? Oh? I didn't even know they

58
00:04:38.319 --> 00:04:40.519
did that. And what kind of
car? Was it? A? What

59
00:04:40.639 --> 00:04:45.920
year? This was a nineteen sixty
six Chevy and Paula and you wanted to

60
00:04:46.040 --> 00:04:48.480
upgrade it to a digital dash?
I did not know you could even do

61
00:04:48.680 --> 00:04:53.920
that. Yes, yes, sir, okay, well I'm learning something.

62
00:04:54.240 --> 00:04:57.560
And what happened when you took it
in? I mean that's that's a daunting

63
00:04:57.680 --> 00:05:00.839
task. If you ask me whoa
yes, they're so basically all right,

64
00:05:00.959 --> 00:05:04.120
So then I mean that's kind of
cool. So you have an older car,

65
00:05:04.160 --> 00:05:08.160
but you wanted to make it digital
like some of these guys with airplanes

66
00:05:08.199 --> 00:05:14.040
are doing. They're putting digital gauges
in. So what happened? So basically

67
00:05:14.120 --> 00:05:19.800
what ended up happening is the technician
installed the dash, uh you know,

68
00:05:19.879 --> 00:05:23.560
and said everything was good to go. So I went to pick up the

69
00:05:23.680 --> 00:05:31.079
vehicle and uh, as I was
driving home, I was maybe two or

70
00:05:31.079 --> 00:05:36.120
three blocks away from my home and
I lost total control of the steering wheel.

71
00:05:38.000 --> 00:05:42.160
Wait a minute, total, I
don't even know how that has anything

72
00:05:42.199 --> 00:05:45.639
to do with it. I believe
you one hundred percent, but wow,

73
00:05:45.920 --> 00:05:50.480
that's freaking weird. So what happened? What did you find out what it

74
00:05:50.600 --> 00:05:54.480
was finally or used to? I
mean, this was in October or are

75
00:05:54.560 --> 00:05:59.879
you still having the problem. No, what ended up happening is, uh,

76
00:06:00.079 --> 00:06:01.439
thank god, you know, I
didn't get in a serious accident or

77
00:06:01.439 --> 00:06:05.360
anything like that. I was uh
maybe going twenty five to thirty miles per

78
00:06:05.360 --> 00:06:09.519
hour, so I was able to
at least slam on the brakes so I

79
00:06:09.519 --> 00:06:15.879
didn't run into anything. So the
vehicle was told to Uh, Corvette shitty.

80
00:06:15.480 --> 00:06:18.600
Uh, this is an auto mechanics
optic was work on. But this

81
00:06:18.759 --> 00:06:25.279
Okay, let let's skip forward.
Why did you have a failure in your

82
00:06:25.839 --> 00:06:30.720
in your steering Uh? Basically what
ended up happening is this technician that car

83
00:06:30.800 --> 00:06:38.720
toys did not seat the steering wheel
component back correctly, which he admitted to

84
00:06:38.800 --> 00:06:41.720
not doing. Okay, so how
did all that? What are you calling

85
00:06:41.720 --> 00:06:47.000
about today? You didn't get in
an accident? Right? No? Okay,

86
00:06:47.040 --> 00:06:49.959
So what are you calling about today? Michael? How can we help

87
00:06:50.000 --> 00:06:55.199
you? So? Basically what I'm
calling about is, well, you know,

88
00:06:55.240 --> 00:06:58.480
when I took the vehicle back to
the shop where I get my work

89
00:06:58.519 --> 00:07:02.519
done and had mechanic look at it, he showed me exactly what happened and

90
00:07:02.600 --> 00:07:08.120
why it happened. So I had
to pay to get this steering wheal component

91
00:07:09.000 --> 00:07:14.279
you know, fixed and put back
in properly, which you know it cost

92
00:07:14.360 --> 00:07:20.920
me fifteen hundred dollars. Oh so
you want them to pay that exactly?

93
00:07:21.399 --> 00:07:26.639
Well, they should pay it if
they caused the damage. However, there's

94
00:07:26.680 --> 00:07:30.519
some there's some cautions here, and
I'm going to explain this to you.

95
00:07:30.839 --> 00:07:34.600
And we have an attorney today.
Although he's a real estate attorney, I

96
00:07:34.680 --> 00:07:39.040
say, although I mean he went
to law school. Heinos about law Brad

97
00:07:39.079 --> 00:07:42.240
O'Brien. Brad, you know what
I'm going to say that fifteen hundred dollars

98
00:07:42.240 --> 00:07:47.120
to fix his steering could be balked
at by someone who did the damage because

99
00:07:47.240 --> 00:07:53.120
it's a sixty six Chevy and pala
and they could argue, we're not putting

100
00:07:53.120 --> 00:07:56.759
new components in there, We'll only
pay for rebils, right, I mean,

101
00:07:57.199 --> 00:08:03.519
what what is your take on when
people pay for damages? You can

102
00:08:03.560 --> 00:08:05.959
look at it through replacement cost,
or you can look at it through present

103
00:08:07.040 --> 00:08:09.759
value, which is new. But
isn't that really all you're all you're responsible

104
00:08:09.800 --> 00:08:13.319
for in a lawsuit? I mean, when you are overwhere the damages and

105
00:08:13.399 --> 00:08:18.959
somebody ruins your transmission with one hundred
and fifty thousand miles on it, you

106
00:08:18.959 --> 00:08:20.800
can't get a new transmission. Yeah, you get the value of whatever it

107
00:08:20.839 --> 00:08:24.240
was that was damaged. So if
you have to buy something new, because

108
00:08:24.240 --> 00:08:28.240
that's the only way you can do
it, you would apply a depreciation factor

109
00:08:28.279 --> 00:08:35.559
against that. How many miles on
this card, Michael, roughly sixty thousand?

110
00:08:35.759 --> 00:08:39.879
You know it's a rebuilt motor.
But okay, so hold on,

111
00:08:39.879 --> 00:08:43.879
I'm the steering and all that linkage. How old is all that? Oh?

112
00:08:43.919 --> 00:08:46.679
The steering and all the linkage.
I would say, because all that

113
00:08:46.720 --> 00:08:50.679
stuff was installed brand newly, So
I would say, no more than three

114
00:08:50.759 --> 00:08:56.200
or four years old. You all
of those were new parts. Correct.

115
00:08:56.240 --> 00:09:00.120
Yeah, I've reached. I've reached
toward the whole car. I get it.

116
00:09:00.320 --> 00:09:03.120
So what was replay? What was
done for fifteen hundred bucks? Quickly?

117
00:09:03.159 --> 00:09:07.559
What was done for fifteen hundred bucks? Basically? Like I said,

118
00:09:07.559 --> 00:09:11.360
you know, it was labor,
but they had to obviously take all the

119
00:09:11.440 --> 00:09:16.519
Was it only labor? It was
only labor? Correct? Okay, then

120
00:09:16.519 --> 00:09:22.279
they should pay every penny of it
in my opinion, unless there was something

121
00:09:22.320 --> 00:09:28.120
else, if they upgraded or did
more for you than just that, that

122
00:09:28.240 --> 00:09:31.320
was it. It was just a
labor that, you know, like I

123
00:09:31.360 --> 00:09:35.200
said, just took correct hold on. So one hundred percent of that labor

124
00:09:35.279 --> 00:09:41.240
cost of fifteen hundred dollars was just
to fix what Car Toys did. Absolutely,

125
00:09:41.759 --> 00:09:45.279
I don't see how they get around
it. What are they balking at?

126
00:09:45.320 --> 00:09:48.919
What are they saying? Well,
basically, what had been going on

127
00:09:50.120 --> 00:09:52.039
is I talked to the store manager. Yeah, I don't want to know

128
00:09:52.080 --> 00:09:54.799
the process, I want to know
the end result. What did they say?

129
00:09:56.000 --> 00:10:01.240
Basically, they sent me to corporate
headquarters, which I ever heard from.

130
00:10:01.480 --> 00:10:03.639
For the headquarters they told me to
So no one, are they ignoring

131
00:10:03.720 --> 00:10:07.679
you? Or did they say no, or did they say we'll give you

132
00:10:07.759 --> 00:10:11.080
part of it? Give me the
result? The result is they just left

133
00:10:11.120 --> 00:10:16.360
me high and dry. Nobody's responded
to me. They didn't even reject your

134
00:10:16.399 --> 00:10:20.759
claim. Well they claimed corporate rejected
it, but I was never told that.

135
00:10:20.240 --> 00:10:24.279
Okay, okay, so you're you're
basically this is the worst thing that

136
00:10:24.320 --> 00:10:28.919
can ever happen, Honest to goodness, the worst thing you could that can

137
00:10:28.960 --> 00:10:33.559
ever happen is being ignored. So
here's the deal, Michael. We can

138
00:10:33.559 --> 00:10:37.240
have someone call for you, and
we should, but I think this will

139
00:10:37.240 --> 00:10:41.919
be a slam dunk in small claims
court. It's going to be a slam

140
00:10:41.960 --> 00:10:43.919
dunk. Hold on, and what
we'll do. I'm gonna put you on

141
00:10:43.919 --> 00:10:50.200
hold. Deputy Doc is working remote
today. Right, Let's let's let Deputy

142
00:10:50.240 --> 00:10:56.039
Doc call these clowns. Plus though
Michael be prepared to begin a small claim

143
00:10:56.080 --> 00:10:58.919
suit, I don't know how they
get around it. If you have someone

144
00:10:58.000 --> 00:11:01.799
saying, you know when they did
this, they did that, well,

145
00:11:01.919 --> 00:11:07.240
then you're done. You're gonna win. I'm Tom Martino. We have more

146
00:11:07.279 --> 00:11:09.559

First Light is a company that comes

00:12:43.919 --> 00:12:48.919
Okay, and what's going on,
sir? I'm a seventy nine year old

166
00:12:48.039 --> 00:12:54.879
person and they do they take elderly
people at home. Can I ask you

167
00:12:54.919 --> 00:13:01.679
something? How long have you been
a paraplegic? About a and a hal

168
00:13:03.039 --> 00:13:11.639
Oh, so it's recent. What
happened? I have a debilitating spine and

169
00:13:11.679 --> 00:13:20.639
I've fallen and I have two prosthetic
hips. And so when you say paraplegic,

170
00:13:20.399 --> 00:13:24.720
you have feeling and stuff, but
you can't walk. Is that what

171
00:13:24.759 --> 00:13:28.159
you're saying. No, I don't
have any feeling in my feet, and

172
00:13:28.240 --> 00:13:35.039
I don't have any feeling in both
of my arms and fingertips. Arms and

173
00:13:35.080 --> 00:13:39.600
fingertips. What about your legs?
You have feeling in your legs. I

174
00:13:39.639 --> 00:13:43.480
do have some feeling in my legs. Okay, that's not important. By

175
00:13:43.480 --> 00:13:46.720
the way, I was just curious
more than anything. So what's going on

176
00:13:46.799 --> 00:13:52.240
with first Light? Okay? So
the young lady that takes care of me

177
00:13:52.320 --> 00:13:58.320
on Tuesdays and Thursdays dreams to really
care about me, and I trust her,

178
00:13:58.399 --> 00:14:01.600
you know, and she does everything. You know. Well, if

179
00:14:01.679 --> 00:14:05.200
I get worse, I called in
and asked if I could help help on

180
00:14:05.399 --> 00:14:09.960
Saturdays. So they so you only
have right now two days a week,

181
00:14:09.919 --> 00:14:16.639
and I extended it to a third
day. Okay. And a young lady

182
00:14:16.679 --> 00:14:22.440
that I've seen for the first time
came to my apartment on the twenty fourth

183
00:14:22.679 --> 00:14:31.039
last Saturday. Okay, what happened
last Saturday? Well, shek she took

184
00:14:31.080 --> 00:14:35.320
her on me that day. We
had a nice, nice couple hours and

185
00:14:35.639 --> 00:14:43.720
she expressed interest on my car that
I have listed on Facebook for thirteen thousand,

186
00:14:43.840 --> 00:14:46.679
five hundred dollars. Okay. So
this has nothing to do with first

187
00:14:46.799 --> 00:14:50.559
Light. We're not talking about anything
to do with your home health care.

188
00:14:50.600 --> 00:14:58.279
That was just background, right,
Well, I don't really know, Okay,

189
00:14:58.360 --> 00:15:01.200
Charles, I get it. So, Charles, did you sell your

190
00:15:01.240 --> 00:15:07.320
car to this young woman? Yes? Okay, Now what kind of okay?

191
00:15:07.360 --> 00:15:13.200
You sold sold car for thirteen and
you sold it to one of the

192
00:15:13.240 --> 00:15:20.519
workers. Yes, okay, and
but did you sell it out? Okay?

193
00:15:20.559 --> 00:15:26.279
And what happened? Well, she
brought her father back. You know,

194
00:15:26.360 --> 00:15:31.360
we had a time of all conversation
two or three times, and she

195
00:15:31.360 --> 00:15:35.159
she's been going to bring money.
Okay, Wait a minute, did you

196
00:15:35.240 --> 00:15:41.399
let her have the car before paying
for it? I think, you know,

197
00:15:41.519 --> 00:15:46.440
I think something that vary has happened. Charles. I'm going to ask

198
00:15:46.480 --> 00:15:52.159
you some straight questions. I need
straight answers. Did she take the car

199
00:15:52.600 --> 00:16:00.960
before paying for it? Yes?
Okay? Was the agreement she would take

200
00:16:00.039 --> 00:16:07.399
the car and sign the paperwork later? No? Did she sign the paperwork

201
00:16:07.440 --> 00:16:12.799
and take the car with an agreement
she would pay you later? What was

202
00:16:12.799 --> 00:16:17.879
the agreement? Because I can't think
if she didn't agree to pay you later,

203
00:16:17.960 --> 00:16:19.279
and she didn't pay you, you
gave it to her, right,

204
00:16:19.399 --> 00:16:26.679
it was a gift, you know. So she came to my house with

205
00:16:26.039 --> 00:16:30.279
cash, got it. And what
happened? And that frightened me. You

206
00:16:30.320 --> 00:16:34.519
know, I'm going to have thirteen
thousand and five you should have taken it.

207
00:16:34.559 --> 00:16:38.000
But anyway, then what happened?
Right then? What happened? So

208
00:16:41.600 --> 00:16:51.279
her father start counting out one hundred
dollar bills and he counted thirteen hundred and

209
00:16:51.559 --> 00:16:59.480
five dollars. Okay. Then when
he had it and he handed it to

210
00:16:59.559 --> 00:17:04.079
me sitting on a table, and
I thought I had twelve more thousand dollars

211
00:17:04.160 --> 00:17:14.559
coming, And what happened then?
I don't really know. Okay, Okay,

212
00:17:15.519 --> 00:17:19.480
Charles, this happened, Charles.
Wait, let me get it straight.

213
00:17:21.000 --> 00:17:25.640
She and her dad are there.
He counts out thirteen hundred dollars.

214
00:17:25.960 --> 00:17:30.559
Yes, After he counted out thirteen
hundred, did you say, by the

215
00:17:30.599 --> 00:17:37.279
way, you owe me more money. We had a big argument. Why

216
00:17:37.319 --> 00:17:41.000
did you have an argument? Did
he say, no, you were only

217
00:17:41.039 --> 00:17:45.200
asking thirteen hundred. How do you
have an argument? It's your car?

218
00:17:45.559 --> 00:17:52.920
So what I need to know is
what happened during the argument. What was

219
00:17:52.039 --> 00:17:59.359
their side of the argument. The
very side of the argument is that I

220
00:17:59.599 --> 00:18:04.680
told her that I wanted thirteen hundred
and five dollars forth of vehicle. Okay,

221
00:18:04.839 --> 00:18:10.119
even if you did say that,
Even if you did, you could

222
00:18:10.200 --> 00:18:14.039
change your mind. It wouldn't matter. You didn't have a contract with them.

223
00:18:14.319 --> 00:18:15.960
So what did you say? Did
you say, okay, you can

224
00:18:17.039 --> 00:18:21.119
have it for thirteen hundred or what
what happened? Oh? Not at all?

225
00:18:21.200 --> 00:18:26.119
We argued about it, Okay,
then what we're target about it and

226
00:18:32.079 --> 00:18:36.960
close It's just a blur to me. Okay, got it. So you

227
00:18:37.160 --> 00:18:44.440
had an argument and at some point
did you deliver the car to them?

228
00:18:44.519 --> 00:18:49.240
Did they take the car? And
did you sign the paperwork? They have

229
00:18:49.440 --> 00:18:56.200
the car right now, they have
the title. Did you sign it over

230
00:18:56.440 --> 00:19:00.519
to them? Yes? Yes,
the paper Then they took it advantage of

231
00:19:00.559 --> 00:19:04.680
a person at risk. You don't
even know what happened. They intimidated you.

232
00:19:06.240 --> 00:19:10.000
Why did you sign it? Were
you afraid or you say you don't

233
00:19:10.039 --> 00:19:21.640
remember? I just don't have you
had memory lapses before? Yes, you

234
00:19:21.680 --> 00:19:29.480
know I have a brain tumor and
I didn't. Okay, hey, bred

235
00:19:29.519 --> 00:19:33.000
O'Brien, this man has a brain
tumor. This man is obviously sounding and

236
00:19:33.079 --> 00:19:37.160
competent. I don't know what he
does. In the case, you signed

237
00:19:37.200 --> 00:19:41.240
this car over. Did you call
first Light Healthcare since they sent her into

238
00:19:41.240 --> 00:19:45.039
your home. I did, and
they promised me able to have my car

239
00:19:45.200 --> 00:19:47.759
back to me. Okay, listen
now, no, we got to take

240
00:19:47.799 --> 00:19:51.759
this problem. This sucks, Kelly. I want you to call first Light

241
00:19:51.880 --> 00:19:56.720
right now. One of their healthcare
workers goes into this guy's house and buys

242
00:19:56.759 --> 00:20:00.359
a car for thirteen hundred. That's
unconsciental. I want to know what kind

243
00:20:00.440 --> 00:20:11.240
of car was it? It's a
twenty thirteen Tia Optima s L. And

244
00:20:11.319 --> 00:20:14.799
what is it worth? And what
did you? First of all, what

245
00:20:14.880 --> 00:20:22.839
is it worth? I have a
neighbor and that posted it for me,

246
00:20:22.880 --> 00:20:26.519
and he goes to the options.
What is it worth? Charles? He

247
00:20:26.759 --> 00:20:33.319
said it was worth thirteen five.
He's the guy that posted it for me.

248
00:20:33.400 --> 00:20:37.599
Okay, hold on, hold on
now? Is this neighbor you need

249
00:20:37.640 --> 00:20:41.079
some help? Charles? Can your
neighbor help? We need to call Kelly.

250
00:20:41.119 --> 00:20:45.079
I want to call directly, even
if John or let doctor it if

251
00:20:45.079 --> 00:20:48.759
you're too busy, but we need
to call right now. This is number

252
00:20:48.759 --> 00:20:52.359
one priority. We need to call
first Light and then we need to call

253
00:20:52.400 --> 00:20:56.960
this woman, and we need to
call the police. Don't you think could

254
00:20:56.960 --> 00:21:00.079
this let be a I don't know, Brad, sounds like a crime.

255
00:21:02.440 --> 00:21:04.160
Well, I'm a civil LW attorney, so I'm thinking of in terms of

256
00:21:04.279 --> 00:21:07.960
elder law abuse. Yes, which
is somebody in a position of trust or

257
00:21:08.000 --> 00:21:12.960
authority or that's right, it took
advantage exactly. It's a person at risk.

258
00:21:14.440 --> 00:21:18.039
We have a big problem here,
Charles. This is my number one

259
00:21:18.079 --> 00:21:22.480
priority today. I believe you,
Charles. You know, in some circumstances

260
00:21:22.519 --> 00:21:26.599
I say things like this, why'd
you sign it over? Why'd you do

261
00:21:26.680 --> 00:21:30.440
it too late? It's tough,
but it's not tough, luck. I

262
00:21:30.480 --> 00:21:34.160
can tell you were intimidated, you
were afraid. Probably did the dad yell

263
00:21:34.240 --> 00:21:40.640
at you. Yes, you know
it didn't get out of my hand,

264
00:21:40.759 --> 00:21:47.200
you know, but they were adamant
that at thirteen hundreds. Now, this

265
00:21:47.279 --> 00:21:55.039
young woman who works there, I
want to know something about her. Okay,

266
00:21:55.160 --> 00:22:00.200
when did she actually show up with
her dad? She showed up with

267
00:22:00.279 --> 00:22:06.039
her dad on the following day,
that Sunday, on Sunday. What Sunday?

268
00:22:07.240 --> 00:22:18.079
That would be the twenty fifth of
February. February. Okay, Doc,

269
00:22:18.200 --> 00:22:22.000
I mean, are you listening to
this? Doc? Yeah, I

270
00:22:22.079 --> 00:22:23.799
missed the beginning, but if you
want me to, I'll talk to Charles

271
00:22:25.200 --> 00:22:27.559
after you hang up on the air. Yeah, but let me just sum

272
00:22:27.559 --> 00:22:33.640
it up for those listening as well. He has home healthcare. First light

273
00:22:33.839 --> 00:22:41.599

send thieves into houses. He's a seventy

274
00:22:41.680 --> 00:22:45.960
nine year old man. He's disabled. He had a car for sale that's

275
00:22:45.160 --> 00:22:51.079
obviously worth ten thousand or more,
according to what I'm seeing here. He

276
00:22:51.240 --> 00:22:56.599
was asking thirteen to five. They
came back with thirteen hundred dollars and yelled

277
00:22:56.599 --> 00:23:02.440
at him until he signed it over. He doesn't even remember what happened.

278
00:23:03.039 --> 00:23:07.359
Did you owe money on this,
Charles? No? I did not.

279
00:23:07.720 --> 00:23:15.240
It was how many miles on this? Forty one thousand, twenty one or

280
00:23:15.279 --> 00:23:19.519
forty one? No, forty one
forty one? You know what, Charles?

281

You called the right place. We're
gonna raise holy hell, you know

282
00:23:23.440 --> 00:23:27.240
what? And then we need to
get a police officer or a detective up.

283
00:23:27.599 --> 00:23:32.039
Listen. As far as I'm concerned, this sucks, I want you

284
00:23:32.160 --> 00:23:36.119

00:24:49.119 --> 00:24:53.079
someone to hurt his home and they're
ripping them off and he's a person at

301
00:24:53.200 --> 00:24:56.279
risk. Are you kidding me?
They better buy him a car or give

302
00:24:56.400 --> 00:25:00.799
him the money. First Light Homecare
first Light. Okay, So what I

303
00:25:00.839 --> 00:25:04.160
did? I put my name in
all that right, and I put I'm

304
00:25:04.160 --> 00:25:08.559
interested in companion care and personal characters. I am put down the zip code

305
00:25:08.559 --> 00:25:11.559
of the station along with three ZHO
three Martino, and I say I am

306
00:25:11.559 --> 00:25:17.000
the host of an iHeartRadio show originating
from k HOW Radio and Denver. My

307
00:25:17.079 --> 00:25:21.960
show concentrates on ripoffs, and I
am featuring your company. An elderly paralyzed

308
00:25:21.960 --> 00:25:27.400
man called my show to let me
know that one of your workers virtually stole

309
00:25:27.559 --> 00:25:41.079
his car, his car by pressuring
him to sell it at a fraction of

310
00:25:41.480 --> 00:25:47.160
its market value. And by the
way, Tom, we also have the

311
00:25:47.279 --> 00:25:51.200
woman who bought the car her cell
phone. DOC is trying to get in

312
00:25:51.240 --> 00:25:56.559
touch with them right now, and
also first light the agency because they're multiple

313
00:25:56.559 --> 00:26:00.240
offices. The actual office that she's
out of. We also have that number,

314
00:26:00.400 --> 00:26:03.880
right, we have locations. When
you find the one, let me

315
00:26:03.920 --> 00:26:06.000
know. I want to put out
their number. I have it. Do

316
00:26:06.000 --> 00:26:07.279
you want me to put it up? Yep, I want to put up

317
00:26:07.839 --> 00:26:12.519
that location. And I want after
Doc tries to call them. I want

318
00:26:12.839 --> 00:26:18.319
pressure on these people. This is
a seventy nine year old disabled man,

319
00:26:18.359 --> 00:26:23.039
You son of a bitch, get
this done. Hey, Tom. They

320
00:26:23.039 --> 00:26:27.920
gave him thirteen hundred instead of thirteen
thousand. Yeah, okay, that was

321
00:26:29.880 --> 00:26:34.119
obviously a fraud, and the cars
worth thirteen thousand. And when he said

322
00:26:34.160 --> 00:26:40.200
that's not enough money, they yelled
at him. I'm gonna call him right

323
00:26:40.240 --> 00:26:44.160
now. I want to call the
jerks. I want to call the woman

324
00:26:44.319 --> 00:26:47.839
who bought the car and tell her
we're getting police involved, and we're going

325
00:26:47.880 --> 00:26:52.440
to do an investigation and we're going
to have her arrested and call the father

326
00:26:52.599 --> 00:26:55.400
too. Do you want to like
to kick his ass? Do you want

327
00:26:55.480 --> 00:26:56.200
Kelly to call her? Or do
you want me to call her? I

328
00:26:56.240 --> 00:27:02.519
want anyone to call Okay, Deputy
Chopper, get anyone to call. Get

329
00:27:02.680 --> 00:27:06.440
money I want. This is our
number one priority. This is a damn

330
00:27:06.519 --> 00:27:10.200
ripoff. All right, I'm calling
right now. God. I was telling

331
00:27:10.240 --> 00:27:12.480
Brad O'Brien. For God's sake,
this is one of the reasons I did

332
00:27:12.519 --> 00:27:15.640
this, And every once in a
while, I mean, these problems I

333
00:27:15.640 --> 00:27:19.440
don't delight in. But you know
what, there is a silver lining here.

334
00:27:19.519 --> 00:27:23.160
It reminds me why the hell I
got into this. Yeah, fifty

335
00:27:23.240 --> 00:27:30.240
years ago. Fifty yeah, I
know, fifty years ago. Actually,

336
00:27:30.680 --> 00:27:34.440
yeah, I started working at the
Yah, at the newspaper younger, uh,

337
00:27:34.440 --> 00:27:37.359
and I started the article at eighteen, So it was actually fifty two

338
00:27:37.480 --> 00:27:42.119
years ago. But man, when
I when I expanded to radio and stuff,

339
00:27:42.119 --> 00:27:48.759
it was about fifty years fifty fricking
years. Actually, my actual fiftieth

340
00:27:48.880 --> 00:27:55.400
year in business will be let's see
if eighteen and I'm seventy. God,

341
00:27:55.759 --> 00:28:02.519
that's scary anyway. So butty years
and broadcasting is going to be twenty twenty

342
00:28:02.559 --> 00:28:08.039
five. I think, all right, let's go to Anthony. Anthony,

343
00:28:08.039 --> 00:28:11.000
what's going on? I got to
calm down a little. I'm gonna have

344
00:28:11.039 --> 00:28:15.079
a conniption here, Anthony, what's
happening? What's going on? Man?

345
00:28:15.200 --> 00:28:21.079
Good morning, Hey, good morning? What's I was promised a refund from

346
00:28:21.079 --> 00:28:25.880
a dental office and uh, now
what we Why were you promised to refund?

347
00:28:26.359 --> 00:28:30.400
Well, they couldn't make the dentures
for my wife. This all started

348
00:28:30.519 --> 00:28:33.799
in the end of No. Now, did they attempt to make them and

349
00:28:33.839 --> 00:28:36.559
you had them fit and they didn't
work? Is it one of those or

350
00:28:36.599 --> 00:28:41.720
they just could not make them?
They it was always think that we did

351
00:28:41.759 --> 00:28:45.440
two molds and with the scans and
then go through blah blah blah. No,

352
00:28:45.599 --> 00:28:48.960
here's what I'm asking Anthony. This
is important. Listen carefully. It's

353
00:28:49.000 --> 00:28:56.519
important. Did they attempt to fit
your wife with dentures they made that she

354
00:28:56.079 --> 00:29:02.000
rejected? They did not make them. Okay, that's what I needed to

355
00:29:02.039 --> 00:29:06.519
know. Keep going. What happened
then? So the middle and what was

356
00:29:06.559 --> 00:29:11.920
the reason they didn't make them?
What was their official reason? They said,

357
00:29:11.960 --> 00:29:15.799
the scan didn't go through. And
then the second time the people that

358
00:29:15.880 --> 00:29:19.440
they sent it to the scan didn't
go through. That was it? Okay?

359
00:29:19.599 --> 00:29:22.960
But did they say to come in
for more? And you said no,

360
00:29:22.119 --> 00:29:25.519
forget it? I mean, how
did see? I need to know

361
00:29:25.559 --> 00:29:27.720
what they're going to say. Are
they going to say they never gave us

362
00:29:27.759 --> 00:29:32.920
a chance? No? No,
yes, we came in for a third

363
00:29:32.920 --> 00:29:34.400
time. They said the dentures were
there, but then they said no,

364
00:29:34.559 --> 00:29:37.799
we got to take another mold.
And my wife said, these people do

365
00:29:37.920 --> 00:29:41.960
not know what they're doing. He
walked out. I went to the manager.

366
00:29:42.119 --> 00:29:47.200
They agreed to give the money back, and they agree in writing.

367
00:29:48.400 --> 00:29:52.480
No, okay, it's just so
Anthony, I know what they're going to

368
00:29:52.559 --> 00:29:53.680

00:37:05.760 --> 00:37:09.320
three nine five three ninety five seventy
five? Wonderful agency? Sending this woman

449
00:37:09.400 --> 00:37:13.920
to them? And I got a
text saying, Tom, on no planet

450
00:37:14.199 --> 00:37:17.800
is this ethical? On no planet? They say that this damn thing.

451
00:37:17.880 --> 00:37:22.840
Listen to this. They say that
You are never supposed to have business like

452
00:37:22.920 --> 00:37:27.400
that. It is forbidden. Tom. Now here's the deal. First light

453
00:37:27.480 --> 00:37:30.480
says she did nothing wrong. So
there there, Tom, think about that.

454
00:37:30.840 --> 00:37:36.519
First Light says, nothing wrong.
The police investigated. There's no crime.

455
00:37:36.800 --> 00:37:42.239
Now listen, a crime, no
crime. I want to talk to

456
00:37:42.320 --> 00:37:45.280
police. I'm not saying it was
a crime. I'm saying yes, hold

457
00:37:45.360 --> 00:37:50.480
on, I'm not saying it was
a crime. I'm saying it is wrong.

458
00:37:50.840 --> 00:37:53.840
And I don't think there is anyone
in the universe who would disagree.

459
00:37:54.599 --> 00:38:00.320
This man is old, and he
had it listed, and he had it

460
00:38:00.639 --> 00:38:05.960
listed. He has proof of that
for thirteen thousand, five hundred dollars and

461
00:38:06.199 --> 00:38:09.840
she paid thirteen hundred and they intimidated
him. Well go ahead, I'm sorry.

462
00:38:09.920 --> 00:38:14.320
Good. Yeah. We have George
Brockler. Okay. George Brockler,

463
00:38:14.800 --> 00:38:19.519
by the way, used to be
a district attorney and he was a talk

464
00:38:19.559 --> 00:38:21.920
show host and he's running for office. Now. I just want to get

465
00:38:21.960 --> 00:38:25.039
that out. But I George,
I swear to God, I just want

466
00:38:25.079 --> 00:38:29.480
to lay that out to you.
A seventy nine year old man, paraplegic

467
00:38:29.559 --> 00:38:31.679
a year and a half ago,
decides to sell his car. It is

468
00:38:31.880 --> 00:38:37.400
listed. It is listed for thirteen
thousand, five hundred. A healthcare worker

469
00:38:37.519 --> 00:38:43.320
says, I'll buy it. The
healthcare worker takes her dad to his house.

470
00:38:44.519 --> 00:38:49.199
They counted out thirteen hundred dollars.
He said, no, it's not

471
00:38:49.360 --> 00:38:53.119
thirteen hundred and five dollars. It's
thirteen thousand, he said. Now,

472
00:38:53.280 --> 00:38:55.159
I don't know if this is true. He says, Tom, I don't

473
00:38:55.199 --> 00:39:00.400
know what happened. I was afraid
it's fuzzy. I think something wrong happened.

474
00:39:00.559 --> 00:39:05.000
But they took the car, and
he said he ended up signing the

475
00:39:05.119 --> 00:39:07.960
title. I just want to know, on the surface, what does this

476
00:39:07.079 --> 00:39:12.760
sound like to you. Well,
one, it sounds completely unethical, which

477
00:39:12.800 --> 00:39:15.039
is separate from whether or not it's
a violation of a state statute. But

478
00:39:15.559 --> 00:39:21.400
for anyone who's in a position of
trust, like a healthcare worker with someone

479
00:39:21.440 --> 00:39:23.880
who's a senior who clearly needs help, that's why they have the relationship to

480
00:39:23.960 --> 00:39:29.519
begin with, there should be some
pretty clear bright lines that you can't engage

481
00:39:29.559 --> 00:39:32.280
in any business dealings ever. Make
them cookies, sure, sell them your

482
00:39:32.360 --> 00:39:36.639
car. Never. None of that
makes any sense to me at all.

483
00:39:36.760 --> 00:39:40.679
Now, the problem here is you
can consent to any deal, even a

484
00:39:40.760 --> 00:39:44.519
bad one. And while our gut
reaction is, hey, if this is

485
00:39:44.559 --> 00:39:46.880
a thirty nine year old guy,
we say, yeah, yeah, we

486
00:39:46.920 --> 00:39:49.880
don't know why he did it,
but it sounds like a horrible deal.

487
00:39:50.000 --> 00:39:52.119
Seventy nine year old guy who's in
this position, and we say, what

488
00:39:52.320 --> 00:39:55.920
went on to get him to put
his name on that title? And therein

489
00:39:55.960 --> 00:40:00.280
lies the problem if he's unclear as
to what happened, If he does have

490
00:40:00.480 --> 00:40:02.800
a threat he can point to or
even menacing actions, you know, like

491
00:40:02.920 --> 00:40:07.119
this guy came in and he was
brooding and he was over me and leering

492
00:40:07.199 --> 00:40:10.000
or what even if he can't give
any of those things. I get why

493
00:40:10.119 --> 00:40:14.639
law enforcement feels a bit steiny as
to what to do, because they're like,

494
00:40:14.719 --> 00:40:16.800
well, what are we accusing these
folks up? Now. It doesn't

495
00:40:16.920 --> 00:40:21.840
mean they can't have the conversation with
the other folks. But my guess is

496
00:40:21.880 --> 00:40:23.440
the other folks are like, yeah, we came in and he liked my

497
00:40:23.599 --> 00:40:27.880
daughter and I was just helping going
to go. Doesn't it sound like too

498
00:40:27.960 --> 00:40:31.079
much of a coincidence? George,
Like taking advantage of a person I trust,

499
00:40:31.480 --> 00:40:36.159
if it's listed prior to them even
getting there. For thirteen thousand,

500
00:40:36.239 --> 00:40:40.159
five hundred and they buy it to
thirteen hundred five dollars. Yeah, it

501
00:40:40.280 --> 00:40:46.360
sounds like an absolute coincidence that is
likely premised on something untoward that happened.

502
00:40:46.920 --> 00:40:51.960
But remember with only three people in
the room, and one of them says,

503
00:40:52.400 --> 00:40:54.920
I can't explain what happened. There
aren't a lot of good, good

504
00:40:54.960 --> 00:41:00.239
outcomes for right. Please see what
you're saying, George, I think this

505
00:41:00.400 --> 00:41:05.880
is a This is a call for
me tom to the AG's office. If

506
00:41:05.960 --> 00:41:07.880
the Denver police don't want to take
action, and I get why they don't,

507
00:41:08.719 --> 00:41:13.000
I'd go. I'd call the AG's
office, the consumer protection folks and

508
00:41:13.119 --> 00:41:16.000
get them involved. They are super
sensitive to two big issues, consumer fraud

509
00:41:16.320 --> 00:41:22.880
and elder abuse good and they could
be super aggressive in trying to analyze what

510
00:41:22.000 --> 00:41:24.800
happened here. Make some phone calls
and try to get to the right George,

511
00:41:24.840 --> 00:41:29.239
what if a what if a civil
case which is different than criminal?

512
00:41:29.360 --> 00:41:32.960
What if someone brought what if someone
represented Charles and brought a civil case?

513
00:41:34.360 --> 00:41:37.000
Do you see that? Is that
a different level of proof there? Would

514
00:41:37.000 --> 00:41:40.599
that? Would that change things a
bit? I think it would change things

515
00:41:40.679 --> 00:41:44.239
quite a bit, because, as
you know, the standard gets reduced down

516
00:41:44.280 --> 00:41:49.239
to preponderance of the evidence. Now
it's involving a contract for goods. You

517
00:41:49.280 --> 00:41:51.679
know, he would be a genius
at this time. Our buddy Dan,

518
00:41:52.119 --> 00:41:54.920
our buddy Danny Kaplis, would know
this thing inside and out. And I'm

519
00:41:55.000 --> 00:41:59.119
not committing him to anything, but
I understand I'm gonna call him here ago.

520
00:41:59.480 --> 00:42:01.000
I'm going to just to get his
opinion on this. This is the

521
00:42:01.119 --> 00:42:06.079
kind of thing that you might even
at thirteen thousand bucks. I can't remember

522
00:42:06.119 --> 00:42:07.519
what the threshold this time. You
might not this, but you might even

523
00:42:07.559 --> 00:42:13.239
be able to launch this thing in
small claims or county court. Yes,

524
00:42:13.320 --> 00:42:16.480
seventy five hundred is the limit for
small claims that I think ten thousand for

525
00:42:16.639 --> 00:42:21.840
county so for out in the district. Well, but then you got to

526
00:42:21.920 --> 00:42:25.559
wonder how invested in having this sweetheart
dealer these folks going to be when they

527
00:42:25.639 --> 00:42:29.400
get that summons? You know,
yeah, that's true. How excited are

528
00:42:29.400 --> 00:42:30.760
they going to be about it?
And I'm not in no way am I

529
00:42:30.800 --> 00:42:37.440
saying engaged in law? Heare,
but this feels ridiculously underhanded. You can't

530
00:42:37.480 --> 00:42:40.360
explain it as anything other than either
this guy fell in love with that healthcare

531
00:42:40.440 --> 00:42:45.559
worker and said I'll take ten percent
of what this vehicle is worth, or

532
00:42:45.639 --> 00:42:47.960
something bad happened. And let me
ask you something, George, George,

533
00:42:49.760 --> 00:42:58.679
what would be your opinion on the
healthcare the agency itself and their responsibility if

534
00:42:58.760 --> 00:43:02.880
a civil case was brought. Yeah, I think they'd have to They could

535
00:43:02.920 --> 00:43:06.960
potentially be on the hook, especially
if they have a pattern and practice of

536
00:43:07.039 --> 00:43:09.679
this with either this employee or others. And you bring up a great point

537
00:43:09.679 --> 00:43:15.440
about this two times. How does
this healthcare company not intervene and say WHOA?

538
00:43:15.039 --> 00:43:19.679
My guess is they have personnel rules, and those personal rules prescribe the

539
00:43:19.760 --> 00:43:23.000
relationship that has to take place between
them and the person that they're taking care

540
00:43:23.039 --> 00:43:27.519
of their client. If they don't
have something on the books that says you

541
00:43:27.639 --> 00:43:30.480
can't engage in transactions with them,
I mean, my god, what if

542
00:43:30.519 --> 00:43:32.159
this girl showed up in his will? Wouldn't that be weird? Wouldn't we

543
00:43:32.199 --> 00:43:35.559
say hang up? No, of
course, or of course we're not going

544
00:43:35.639 --> 00:43:37.800
to allow people to do that.
So my guess is there may be some

545
00:43:37.920 --> 00:43:40.000
personnel rules at play here. He
may want to reach out to the employer.

546
00:43:40.039 --> 00:43:43.639
I don't know if he has or
he hasn't, But this feels super

547
00:43:43.800 --> 00:43:47.000
underhanded. I think in a civil
case. A civil case, since I've

548
00:43:47.039 --> 00:43:52.079
been involved in so many, I
can tell you when they depose you or

549
00:43:52.159 --> 00:43:55.719
they put you on the stand,
jury's are very keen to listen to credibility.

550
00:43:55.960 --> 00:44:00.800
And when they start being questioned on
why was thirteen hundred dollars and he

551
00:44:00.960 --> 00:44:05.159
and they said, well, he
just wanted he wanted to help us or

552
00:44:05.239 --> 00:44:09.559
whatever. And he knew her for
one day, one day literally. But

553
00:44:09.719 --> 00:44:15.400
George, thank you very much for
weighing in and best to you on all

554
00:44:15.559 --> 00:44:19.760
your endeavors. Sir. We appreciate
it. Thanks Tom, Thanks, thank

555
00:44:19.800 --> 00:44:23.599
you. Now, Charles, did
you hear what he said? He said?

556
00:44:23.760 --> 00:44:28.599
It's going to be a little tricky
when you say I don't remember what

557
00:44:28.760 --> 00:44:34.559
happened. Listen, Charles, it's
even okay to say you do remember.

558
00:44:34.639 --> 00:44:37.079
I mean, I don't know if
you're saying you don't remember it because you

559
00:44:37.199 --> 00:44:42.039
don't or you're embarrassed, but I
don't know if you felt intimidated what happened.

560
00:44:42.159 --> 00:44:45.280
I need to know, because you
know what, if we take this

561
00:44:45.480 --> 00:44:47.280
on, we need to know and
I want to go after first light.

562
00:44:47.519 --> 00:44:52.320
Now listen, I know that this
recorded, this, this will be played

563
00:44:52.360 --> 00:44:55.320
for their attorneys. So right now
the attorney is listening. So let me

564
00:44:55.400 --> 00:45:00.119
speak to an attorney. Mister attorney
first and foremost or lost a case ever,

565
00:45:00.679 --> 00:45:04.519
I want you to know that.
Look me up in Lexus and Texas.

566
00:45:04.800 --> 00:45:09.519
I've also been awarded hundreds of thousands
of dollars in attorneys' fees for people

567
00:45:09.599 --> 00:45:14.159
that have gone after me, so
you can look that up too. Okay,

568
00:45:14.599 --> 00:45:17.719
now, mister attorney, let me
explain something to you. I am

569
00:45:17.920 --> 00:45:27.800
not saying a crime took place.
What I am saying it is wrong,

570
00:45:29.440 --> 00:45:37.800
absolutely positively wrong in my opinion,
and in my opinion, if First Light,

571
00:45:37.960 --> 00:45:43.599
who employed this person, will not
make good, they are scumbags in

572
00:45:43.719 --> 00:45:47.320
my opinion. They should not be
in the business in my opinion, and

573
00:45:47.639 --> 00:45:52.639
they at the very least they if
they fired the woman, fine, but

574
00:45:52.800 --> 00:45:58.079
that's not enough. So I want
to make that clear for mister or missus

575
00:45:58.159 --> 00:46:04.320
attorney listening or miss or whatever whatever
you are. I'm making this to the

576
00:46:04.400 --> 00:46:09.599
attorney who's no doubt listening to this
or reading the transcript. Okay, so

577
00:46:10.199 --> 00:46:15.840
please look me up, look up
my background, look at my case load,

578
00:46:16.239 --> 00:46:22.559
and look at my success rate.
Along with the awarding of attorneys' fees.

579
00:46:22.159 --> 00:46:28.400
Then look up what's called slap lawsuits
and how I've kicked the asses of

580
00:46:28.719 --> 00:46:32.440
major corporations. Do that? Okay? You might even want to look up

581
00:46:32.480 --> 00:46:40.039
my attorney, James Kilroy at Snell
and Wilner. Okay. Now the problem

582
00:46:40.199 --> 00:46:46.559
is this. It's wrong, wrong, wrong, wrong, in my opinion,

583
00:46:46.920 --> 00:46:51.400
Can anyone say this does not smell? But I need to know,

584
00:46:51.599 --> 00:47:00.400
Charles. I need to know more
about how you felt coming up. Hold

585
00:47:00.440 --> 00:47:02.840
on, Michelle, you have a
comment on organ donation. I'm not sure

586
00:47:02.880 --> 00:47:06.760
how what you're commenting on. We
haven't taken any calls on that. Go

587
00:47:06.840 --> 00:47:12.599
ahead, Michelle, Yeah, Hi, I actually was just wanting to bring

588
00:47:12.639 --> 00:47:16.880
an issue to light to the public. They're going to be a pretty irate

589
00:47:16.960 --> 00:47:22.000
when they hear about this. What
is it actually is? So back in

590
00:47:22.119 --> 00:47:24.880
early October, my mother in law
went in in the middle of the night

591
00:47:24.960 --> 00:47:29.239
to get a donated kidney. She
was there for a few hours. They

592
00:47:29.280 --> 00:47:30.880
came in said, we've been working
on this kidney for a few hours and

593
00:47:31.079 --> 00:47:35.159
unfortunately it's not viable. It's been
our home. A few weeks later,

594
00:47:35.400 --> 00:47:39.360
fortunately she went in, had a
viable kidney, went through a successful transplant.

595
00:47:39.400 --> 00:47:45.480
She's doing great. She inquired,
kind of just out of curiosity with

596
00:47:45.679 --> 00:47:49.559
the with her doctor team, what
makes the kidney viable and so not.

597
00:47:51.079 --> 00:47:54.280
What they replied with was one of
the most disturbing things I've ever heard.

598
00:47:55.719 --> 00:48:00.440
They said that since nine eleven,
which you know, almost twenty for years

599
00:48:00.480 --> 00:48:02.639
now, organs are no longer allowed
to be in the cabin of the aircraft

600
00:48:02.679 --> 00:48:08.360
with the pilot. They ride with
the luggage. And they said about half

601
00:48:09.199 --> 00:48:15.760
become too damaged during transport to be
used. They told me, no,

602
00:48:15.840 --> 00:48:19.920
wait a minute. And they used
to go in the cockpit with someone holding

603
00:48:20.000 --> 00:48:22.639
it like like a a you know, I don't know, a messenger.

604
00:48:24.960 --> 00:48:30.039
I don't know if someone accompanied them
or if it was just in the container.

605
00:48:30.679 --> 00:48:35.239
But it was allowed to ride in
the cabin with the pilot. But

606
00:48:35.320 --> 00:48:37.559
for the last twenty three years it
now goes with the luggage. And they

607
00:48:37.920 --> 00:48:45.239
the doctor said to her that almost
half of the organs that come to them

608
00:48:45.519 --> 00:48:52.840
through aircraft transportation are not viable.
They can't. Oh my gosh, So

609
00:48:52.119 --> 00:48:58.360
okay. Kidney that she got that
was very viable was luckily came from a

610
00:48:58.480 --> 00:49:05.119
local enough donor that it was transported
by car and so last month I reached

611
00:49:05.119 --> 00:49:09.159
out to my senators. I live
in Wyoming. Senator Barasso is a former

612
00:49:09.239 --> 00:49:13.840
doctor, and he was wonderful.
He responded, so let me know that.

613
00:49:14.280 --> 00:49:17.360
In June of twenty three, Senator
Can't Well out of Washington introduced a

614
00:49:17.519 --> 00:49:22.519
bill Senate bill in nineteen thirty nine
called the FAA Reauthorization Act of twenty twenty

615
00:49:22.599 --> 00:49:28.400
three. Part of that bill establishes
a new process for the commercial airlines requiring

616
00:49:28.440 --> 00:49:31.519
the safe, untimely transportation of an
organ in the cabin of the aircraft.

617
00:49:32.440 --> 00:49:37.159
This legislation still awaits consideration by the
Senate Committee on Commerce, Science, and

618
00:49:37.199 --> 00:49:42.039
Transportation. I found a list of
the senators serving on that committee, and

619
00:49:42.079 --> 00:49:45.639
I reached out to every single one
of them, like this deserves more treatment

620
00:49:45.679 --> 00:49:49.559
than a quick phone called Michelle.
Do me a favor Kaschina, give her

621

some information. Let's get her back on

631
00:50:43.519 --> 00:50:49.119
troubleshooter. Okay. That thing about
organ donations and organs being destroyed by the

632
00:50:49.159 --> 00:50:53.320
airlines, that really has to be
explored, by the way, that has

633
00:50:53.400 --> 00:50:57.679
to be explored. And I'm so
happy she called. Will get her on

634
00:50:57.800 --> 00:51:01.960
now. I want to get Charles
back on Charles again. I want to

635
00:51:02.000 --> 00:51:07.199
tell you something. They're saying,
no crime took place. Supposedly the police

636
00:51:07.239 --> 00:51:09.239
investigators said no crime. That doesn't
make it right. By the way,

637
00:51:09.280 --> 00:51:12.960
it doesn't have to be a crime
to be wrong, and in my opinion,

638
00:51:13.039 --> 00:51:15.559
they did wrong no matter what if
that car was sold for thirteen hundred

639
00:51:15.719 --> 00:51:21.000
and you're having second thoughts. I
don't know now, Charles, I want

640
00:51:21.039 --> 00:51:23.119
you to be straight with me.
Did they talk you into it. Did

641
00:51:23.159 --> 00:51:27.119
you decide it was better to let
them have it and not have an argument?

642
00:51:27.280 --> 00:51:30.559
Or what were you pressured? Do
you not remember totally? I mean,

643
00:51:30.800 --> 00:51:34.360
I don't understand any of this.
Do you truly have a brain tumor?

644
00:51:34.639 --> 00:51:38.719
Talk to me. I do have
a brain tumor. And I had

645
00:51:38.800 --> 00:51:45.760
had a nosebleed episode the day before
that, you know, And I'm just

646
00:51:45.079 --> 00:51:52.119
going to that type. Why did
you sign the title? I didn't know

647
00:51:52.320 --> 00:51:58.880
that I had. I think I
reported to the police that I hadn't sly

648
00:51:59.000 --> 00:52:00.880
on, you know, and I
didn't want to be wrong on that.

649
00:52:01.079 --> 00:52:07.400
I don't want to tell any lies
about the thing. And well did the

650
00:52:07.559 --> 00:52:12.159
father did they threaten you that you
said they did not threaten you. No,

651
00:52:12.400 --> 00:52:14.719
they didn't threaten me, not to
you know, they didn't thread?

652
00:52:14.800 --> 00:52:19.800
Okay, okay, So why did
when? When? Why was there an

653
00:52:20.000 --> 00:52:22.320
argument? And when you say an
argument, what do you mean an argument?

654
00:52:24.119 --> 00:52:31.639
I mean he counted out thirteen hundred
and five dollars. Do you have

655
00:52:31.920 --> 00:52:37.519
proof it was listed for thirteen thousand, five hundred? Oh? Yes,

656
00:52:37.599 --> 00:52:40.400
and we'll list it on Facebook?
Okay, and you have proof? Care

657
00:52:40.480 --> 00:52:45.280
you can show us that ad Yes, I can. I can send it

658
00:52:45.360 --> 00:52:47.239
to you. Good. I want
you to send it to me. Now.

659
00:52:47.440 --> 00:52:52.880
First Light Home Care says, nothing
is wrong. Nothing's wrong, it

660
00:52:52.000 --> 00:52:55.480
was investigated, there's no crime.
So they're they're not going to do anything

661
00:52:55.519 --> 00:52:59.880
about this. They're not helping you
at all. They sent a woman into

662
00:52:59.880 --> 00:53:05.000
you home that bought a thirteen thousand
dollars car for thirteen hundred dollars and they

663
00:53:05.119 --> 00:53:10.519
see no obligation whatsoever to do anything
for you. Okay. Now we have

664
00:53:10.639 --> 00:53:14.599
George Brockler, a former DA saying, look, there's still a matter of

665
00:53:14.760 --> 00:53:17.880
proof, but it doesn't pass the
smell test no matter what. And I'm

666
00:53:17.920 --> 00:53:22.800
going to look for a civil attorney
to take this on to sue both the

667
00:53:22.920 --> 00:53:27.599
nursing home and the woman both,
Okay, and I'm hoping to God I

668
00:53:27.679 --> 00:53:30.039
can find one to do this.
Soon. We're going to call and I'd

669
00:53:30.199 --> 00:53:35.760
like to get Dan Caplis's opinion on
this. Dan Caplis is an attorney where

670
00:53:35.800 --> 00:53:38.599
he doesn't take cases like this,
but I want his opinion. George Brockler

671
00:53:38.679 --> 00:53:43.519
we got his opinion, we may
as well get Dan Caplis, who works

672
00:53:43.559 --> 00:53:47.880
here and also is an attorney,
his opinion. I remember one time he

673
00:53:49.079 --> 00:53:53.280
sued a company who had an employee
who was involved in something and got big,

674
00:53:53.960 --> 00:53:58.000
big time damages. Of course,
it was a different kind of thing.

675
00:53:58.119 --> 00:54:00.920
But I would love to discuss this. So Kachina, I don't know

676
00:54:00.960 --> 00:54:04.599
if Dan's around it all. Did
you try him? Not yet, but

677
00:54:04.719 --> 00:54:07.880
I will, yeah and tell him. I'll only take a few minutes.

678
00:54:07.280 --> 00:54:15.920
So Charles try to recall when they
counted out the thirteen hundred. What did

679
00:54:15.079 --> 00:54:25.320
you say, Charles, I said, I will find say again out there,

680
00:54:27.920 --> 00:54:35.320
I said, did you know it? Well? The first thing that

681
00:54:35.440 --> 00:54:37.320
happened, I waited for him.
I I just thought he would continue to

682
00:54:37.559 --> 00:54:42.760
count out some more money, and
then, you know, after he didn't,

683
00:54:46.119 --> 00:54:50.079
I said, well, you know, where's the rest of the money.

684
00:54:53.239 --> 00:55:00.199
Did you say that before or after
signing the title? I have no

685
00:55:00.320 --> 00:55:07.840
idea, and I don't remember signing
the title, but I found go ahead,

686
00:55:07.880 --> 00:55:15.760
you found well. I founded a
document that she sent to my phone

687
00:55:15.480 --> 00:55:21.280
where she was writing out a bill
of fail I can't write by I can

688
00:55:21.320 --> 00:55:24.079
write a little bit. So anyway, she was doing all the writing,

689
00:55:24.719 --> 00:55:30.639
and on this document it says that
I sold the golf for four hundred dollars.

690
00:55:30.920 --> 00:55:36.239
That's for tax, reasons. That's
why she did that probably, And

691
00:55:36.480 --> 00:55:38.519
also, you know, I couldn't
really see her name on air, so

692
00:55:38.599 --> 00:55:43.159
I don't know her name, you
know. But back to the thirteen hundred

693
00:55:43.159 --> 00:55:47.639
dollars. You know, all I
remember is he counted out the thirteen o

694
00:55:47.920 --> 00:55:53.880
five and then when we had the
argument, I don't really know what I

695
00:55:54.039 --> 00:55:58.440
said. You know, it wasn't
a heated argument. It was just that

696
00:55:58.639 --> 00:56:02.280
I was maintaining that I want you
know, I had it posted for thirteen

697
00:56:02.360 --> 00:56:07.239
thousand dollars. Hey, Deputy doc, did first light refuse to give us

698
00:56:07.320 --> 00:56:16.679
Nay's full name? Deputy doc?
Somebody turned on his mic. Please or

699
00:56:16.760 --> 00:56:21.719
tell me how did you take a
phone call? And the yes, they

700
00:56:21.800 --> 00:56:27.760
would not give anyone her last name. And you don't know her last name,

701
00:56:27.840 --> 00:56:30.719
Charles. They didn't leave you with
any documentation whatsoever. I don't know

702
00:56:30.840 --> 00:56:37.119
her last name. And she has
my license plates on the car. She

703
00:56:37.280 --> 00:56:44.000
has your license plates, yeah she
does, I don't have them. She

704
00:56:44.159 --> 00:56:47.039
bought a twenty one thousand dollar car, excuse me, a thirteen thousand dollar

705
00:56:47.199 --> 00:56:52.480
car for thirteen hundred dollars, took
your license plates and had you sign a

706
00:56:52.559 --> 00:56:58.679
bill of sale for four hundred how
do you remember that part because I saw

707
00:56:58.719 --> 00:57:04.679
it just looking at our communications.
Okay, can you send that bill of

708
00:57:04.760 --> 00:57:08.880
sale to me? Yes, sir, I want you to send us everything.

709
00:57:09.400 --> 00:57:15.239
Okay, everything, Charles, and
I want make sure Kachina we have

710
00:57:15.519 --> 00:57:19.159
all that information gathered. Okay,
and then I want to get some other

711
00:57:19.239 --> 00:57:22.559
attorneys who might be listening to weigh
in on this. It doesn't pass the

712
00:57:22.639 --> 00:57:27.840
smell test. Look, First Light, you might be proud that your person

713
00:57:28.119 --> 00:57:31.679
did not commit a crime, so
you're satisfied. You might be satisfied.

714
00:57:31.920 --> 00:57:37.760
I'm not satisfied. I don't like
that response. No crime was committed.

715
00:57:37.000 --> 00:57:42.360
So let's have Nay's name. Nope, Nay won't give her name either,

716
00:57:42.440 --> 00:57:46.400
by the way, and she said
no crime was committed. This is wrong.

717
00:57:47.960 --> 00:57:52.679
This is wrong, and we need
to get an attorney who will take

718
00:57:52.760 --> 00:58:00.639
this case pro bono pro bono and
I'll pay expenses. We need to do

719
00:58:00.760 --> 00:58:10.119
it. This is absolutely positively wrong. That's my opinion. Now again,

720
00:58:10.719 --> 00:58:14.960
I would love to have First Light
on to talk about this, but I

721
00:58:15.280 --> 00:58:19.480
doubt they will come on the air. In fact, deputy docs said they

722
00:58:19.519 --> 00:58:23.639
were very coy. They wouldn't answer
anything. They just said the police investigated,

723
00:58:23.760 --> 00:58:28.559
no crime was committed. So listen
to this. If one of your

724
00:58:28.639 --> 00:58:34.719
loved ones signs over their house,
signs over their car, you know,

725
00:58:34.880 --> 00:58:40.000
sells them for ridiculous amounts jewelry,
artwork, or anything from a First Light

726
00:58:40.159 --> 00:58:49.119
employee in your home. First Light's
response is, no crime has been committed

727
00:58:49.159 --> 00:58:54.119
if police investigates, so as long
as you can coherse Now I'm speaking my

728
00:58:54.280 --> 00:59:00.119
opinion and my thoughts and my analyzation. So if you can cohearst one of

729
00:59:00.239 --> 00:59:07.599
the patients, one of the clients
into signing over stuff. In First Light's

730
00:59:07.639 --> 00:59:13.960
opinion, nothing wrong has happened,
nothing wrong, no crime has been committed.

731
00:59:14.880 --> 00:59:19.079
So what they're doing is saying no
crime has been committed. No crime

732
00:59:19.519 --> 00:59:22.400
has been committed, so there's nothing
they're going to do about it. For

733
00:59:22.559 --> 00:59:30.920
Charles, Charles is out the money. Charles, would you submit to a

734
00:59:30.960 --> 00:59:42.440
psychological examination? Yes, of course
I would. I have you out of

735
00:59:42.480 --> 00:59:49.599
my Now are these people still sending
people to your home? Yes? I

736
00:59:49.719 --> 00:59:52.119
have a young lady to come in
tomorrow morning. It's been with me a

737
00:59:52.239 --> 00:59:57.239
year and a half, you know, and I don't want to lose her

738
00:59:57.320 --> 01:00:00.920
because she's How did this woman that
came in the other woman. How did

739
01:00:01.000 --> 01:00:06.079
this? No. I have a
feeling First Light is going to is going

740
01:00:06.239 --> 01:00:08.840
to take action again. I think
they're going to stop. This is my

741
01:00:09.000 --> 01:00:14.320
gut feeling. Just to add insult
to injury. They probably will stop serving

742
01:00:14.400 --> 01:00:17.519
you and call and say that you
made a false accusation or something. But

743
01:00:17.639 --> 01:00:22.079
here's what I want to know,
and that didn't happen yet. I just

744
01:00:22.159 --> 01:00:25.360
suspected Mike so on this woman.
I need to know. How did she

745
01:00:25.559 --> 01:00:35.679
know your car was for sale?
Because I showed it to her own Facebook,

746
01:00:36.480 --> 01:00:40.039
so she saw the ad where it
was for sale for thirteen five hundred

747
01:00:40.039 --> 01:00:46.559
dollars. Yes, is Deputy Doc
back. I wanted to ask him what

748
01:00:46.760 --> 01:00:51.880
excuse did she have? What was
her explanation as to why this guy dropped

749
01:00:51.920 --> 01:00:55.760
the price to ten percent. He's
not back yet, and I think he's

750
01:00:55.760 --> 01:01:02.280
still working on Dan. Okay,
I'd like to know why she felt that

751
01:01:02.440 --> 01:01:07.719
you sold it to her for ten
percent of the asking price. This is

752
01:01:07.800 --> 01:01:14.199
what you call unconscionable. I swear
to God this is wrong. This is

753

because poor Jamie is waited, and Jamie,

771
01:02:50.599 --> 01:02:53.039
by the way, is hitting on
a topic that I have hit on.

772
01:02:53.880 --> 01:03:00.119
I wrote an article for Nextdoor and
also news Break, and god is

773
01:03:00.159 --> 01:03:05.000
it getting a lot of reaction about
insurance problems with townhomes and condos. Go

774
01:03:05.119 --> 01:03:08.679
ahead, Jamie, good morning to
miss Martino. My name is Jamie.

775
01:03:08.840 --> 01:03:13.599
And yes, hold Jamie, thank
you for holding. I appreciate it.

776
01:03:13.719 --> 01:03:16.760
I hope, I hope I can
help you. What's going on? Well,

777
01:03:17.639 --> 01:03:29.840
acc accu inc current HOA management office
has decided to increase our HOA dues

778
01:03:29.960 --> 01:03:35.320
from two hundred and fifty a month
to four hundred and eighty dollars a month.

779
01:03:35.639 --> 01:03:38.559
Every it's just happening to everyone.
And when you said the management company

780
01:03:38.719 --> 01:03:45.400
decided to do it, really,
Jamie, again, I really hate that

781
01:03:45.480 --> 01:03:47.280
you waited this long if I give
you bad news, but I have to

782
01:03:47.400 --> 01:03:52.760
tell you the truth. And this
is the way it works. Hoa's must

783
01:03:52.840 --> 01:04:00.239
approve those dues. The management company
has no power to do that. So

784
01:04:00.400 --> 01:04:08.239
really, the management company did not
do that, So the buye Okay Peachwood.

785
01:04:08.320 --> 01:04:15.239
This community is considered two communities,
Peachwood one and Peachwood two. Peachwood

786
01:04:15.280 --> 01:04:20.000
one has been built for forty seven
years. Peachwood two, which I live

787
01:04:20.079 --> 01:04:26.119
in, has been built for thirty
years. This November our age way is

788
01:04:26.559 --> 01:04:30.599
going to be effective March for its
four hundred and eighty Peachwood one is two

789
01:04:30.719 --> 01:04:38.159
hundred and sixty five. All homeowners
at Peachwood two is to comply with the

790
01:04:38.280 --> 01:04:43.840
governing documents, that is, the
by laws of Peachwood One. Within those

791
01:04:43.960 --> 01:04:48.880
by laws clearly states that there is
an annual increase which cannot exceed twelve percent

792
01:04:49.719 --> 01:04:57.159
in so far as we were paying
two fifty a month and the current increase

793
01:04:57.599 --> 01:05:02.239
should not exceed thirty dollars. Now
you're saying that, according to buy laws

794
01:05:03.239 --> 01:05:09.639
HOA, fees cannot be increased more
than a certain amount every year. Is

795
01:05:09.679 --> 01:05:14.480
that right correct? What let me
ask you something, Jamie, What if

796
01:05:14.559 --> 01:05:19.400
that becomes untenable. Let's say there's
just not enough money to pay the new

797
01:05:19.480 --> 01:05:24.239
insurance premiums which by the way,
some of them have doubled and tripled,

798
01:05:25.639 --> 01:05:30.960
and other fees. What if it
becomes untenable? Are you saying the HOA,

799
01:05:30.079 --> 01:05:33.000
which is made up of homeowners,
what do they do? Do they

800
01:05:33.079 --> 01:05:36.480
simply say to the vendors, we're
not going to pay the bill because we

801
01:05:36.599 --> 01:05:43.320
can increase our dues. Because I
think you're talking about this HOA as if

802
01:05:43.360 --> 01:05:46.960
it's a third entity and it's not. Those buy laws are made up of

803
01:05:47.119 --> 01:05:54.480
homeowners. So what if homeowners made
a law that was untenable? What would

804
01:05:54.519 --> 01:05:57.559
happen? And I'm not trying to
trick you, I honest to God want

805
01:05:57.639 --> 01:06:02.360
this discussion with you. What would
happen if by raising it only thirty dollars

806
01:06:03.039 --> 01:06:08.719
it would be impossible for the hu
way to pay bills? What would happen?

807
01:06:11.480 --> 01:06:15.119
I wouldn't be able to answer that
question, unfortunately. But they increased

808
01:06:15.159 --> 01:06:19.360
it by ninety two percent. I
get it, Jamie, I'm not But

809
01:06:19.599 --> 01:06:26.079
what if? And again, there's
a lot of possibilities here. There's three

810
01:06:26.199 --> 01:06:31.719
possibilities. One, they absolutely need
the money to pay bills. Number two,

811
01:06:33.119 --> 01:06:36.719
the management company is getting all of
that money and you didn't really need

812
01:06:36.840 --> 01:06:43.039
to increase it at all. Or
number three, someone is lying and cheating

813
01:06:43.159 --> 01:06:46.199
and stealing money. Which one do
you think it is? I swear to

814
01:06:46.239 --> 01:06:49.199
you, Jamie, it's only one
of those three options. What do you

815
01:06:49.320 --> 01:06:55.320
think it is? I from Okay, from my experience living here this November

816
01:06:55.400 --> 01:07:00.000
would be thirty years. For the
last seven years we have paid two hundred

817
01:07:00.000 --> 01:07:04.480
and fifty dollars a month and nothing
gets done in the community the decks.

818
01:07:04.639 --> 01:07:10.360
The reason why they're just maybe they
don't have the money. May I finish?

819
01:07:11.079 --> 01:07:15.360
The reason why they're justifying why they're
going to increase the HA from two

820
01:07:15.480 --> 01:07:19.639
fifty to four hundred and eighty is
they're going to replace the decks and the

821
01:07:19.719 --> 01:07:25.760
fence around the small picket fence yard
we've had we have. They haven't done

822
01:07:25.880 --> 01:07:30.480
any maintenance repairs to the decks in
the thirty years I've lived here except twice,

823
01:07:30.960 --> 01:07:34.960
and I can only speak about my
own home. That's why your fees

824
01:07:35.000 --> 01:07:39.599
are solo. But so what are
you saying that you don't want them to

825
01:07:39.719 --> 01:07:45.199
replace the decks? I offered to
a suggestion at the last board Mellion on

826
01:07:45.280 --> 01:07:54.639
the fifteenth Why why wasn't there an
option three for each homeowner to replace their

827
01:07:54.760 --> 01:08:01.159
decks on their own source of income
rather than lumping it into a huge two

828
01:08:01.280 --> 01:08:06.440
hundred and thirty dollars increase and that
increase starts effective much truth. All right,

829
01:08:06.480 --> 01:08:09.800
hold on, I gotta take a
break. Just hold on for a

830
01:08:09.840 --> 01:08:18.199

Hi Tom Martino here three oh three
seven one three talks seven one three eight

838
01:08:53.479 --> 01:08:59.399
two five five to recap A gentleman
called us Charles, seventy nine year old

839
01:08:59.439 --> 01:09:02.479
guy says, I'm confined to a
wheelchair. I of home health care provided

840
01:09:02.560 --> 01:09:08.039
by first Light. People come in
three days a week. A young woman

841
01:09:08.399 --> 01:09:12.920
I just met, Nay, comes
in. She starts talking about not having

842
01:09:12.960 --> 01:09:15.000
a car. I say, I
have a car for sale. He said.

843
01:09:15.039 --> 01:09:19.880
He showed her the ad on Facebook
marketplace and it was listed for thirteen

844
01:09:19.960 --> 01:09:24.800
thousand, five hundred. She said
she would call or no, she called

845
01:09:24.840 --> 01:09:28.680
later on saying can I come tomorrow. She came on Sunday with her dad,

846
01:09:29.039 --> 01:09:34.319
Richard, And according to Charles,
they came in and the dad counted

847
01:09:34.359 --> 01:09:39.479
out thirteen thousand and five and put
it on the table and he said that's

848
01:09:39.520 --> 01:09:44.640
not enough, and there was an
argument. But this is where Charles' argument

849
01:09:44.720 --> 01:09:46.920
gets weak. He says, I
don't know what happened, but he did

850
01:09:47.000 --> 01:09:51.279
sign a bill of sale for four
hundred dollars and he signed over the title,

851
01:09:53.720 --> 01:09:58.199
so basically he sold the car for
a tenth of the value. And

852
01:09:58.640 --> 01:10:01.159
he's claiming he I really didn't know
what he was doing and he blacked out

853
01:10:01.279 --> 01:10:06.359
or has a memory lapse or whatever. Anthony, the dad wants to accuse

854
01:10:06.399 --> 01:10:10.239
me, Dick Richard. The dad
wants to come on and say, he

855
01:10:10.399 --> 01:10:13.439
said, look, you're not giving
the other side of the story. Of

856
01:10:13.520 --> 01:10:15.359
course we're not if you don't come
on, but we'll say anything that you

857
01:10:15.479 --> 01:10:19.359
tell us. And we did.
And I want to make this clear,

858
01:10:19.479 --> 01:10:27.760
so I don't mislead Richard. When
a home healthcare worker comes and does business

859
01:10:27.800 --> 01:10:30.319
with a client, it is considered
unethical. I looked it up on every

860
01:10:30.359 --> 01:10:34.159
website I could find. Home healthcare
workers are not allowed to do business with

861
01:10:34.239 --> 01:10:40.319
their clients. However, that doesn't
mean that the transaction itself was illegal.

862
01:10:40.920 --> 01:10:45.399
According to First Light, which has
no problem with this, and according to

863
01:10:45.560 --> 01:10:50.439
Nay, the police investigated and there
was no crime. So does that make

864
01:10:50.479 --> 01:10:56.920
it right or wrong? I think
it's wrong ethically, But is the transaction

865
01:10:57.319 --> 01:11:02.399
itself wrong? Civilly? Maybe did
they take advantage of Charles? Charles says

866
01:11:02.439 --> 01:11:06.199
they did. Now Richard wants to
give his side of the story, and

867
01:11:06.319 --> 01:11:13.279
I will shut up. Go ahead, Richard. Hello, yes, Richard,

868
01:11:13.319 --> 01:11:15.960
go ahead. I hope you I
hope you heard me. Did you

869
01:11:15.079 --> 01:11:17.760
hear me? Oh? Yeah?
Absolutely? Go ahead, then, sir,

870
01:11:17.960 --> 01:11:21.159
go ahead. So this this is
all I have to say, Okay,

871
01:11:21.279 --> 01:11:26.600
because first of all, you know, I shouldn't even be dealing with

872
01:11:26.720 --> 01:11:30.439
this for the simple fact that Charles
is not the only one when healthiest she

873
01:11:30.520 --> 01:11:32.239
was. Okay, I have a
eric Bausta or to have healthy issues anim

874
01:11:32.279 --> 01:11:36.079
on my second organ transplant. So
with that said, I'm gonna take the

875
01:11:36.159 --> 01:11:39.720
time off to explaining a couple of
things to you here real quick before I

876
01:11:39.840 --> 01:11:45.640
let you go so you're telling people. First of all, when you guys

877
01:11:45.680 --> 01:11:49.840
first call my daughter, the guy
was very intimidating and being a bully and

878
01:11:49.960 --> 01:11:56.920
making false activation to my daughter before
even investigating. And that made my daughter

879
01:11:57.000 --> 01:12:01.560
feel uncomfortable about talking to him or
you guys about the situation because before he

880
01:12:01.600 --> 01:12:06.119
even investigating, you already made a
decision when you first initially did to contact

881
01:12:06.199 --> 01:12:11.119
with us. Okay, with my
daughter. Now, before I forget,

882
01:12:11.159 --> 01:12:16.680
I want to tell you this.
When you asked Charles about about the post,

883
01:12:16.720 --> 01:12:18.840
did she see the post? Did
you show her the post? He

884
01:12:18.960 --> 01:12:26.840
said yes. But what he didn't
tell you was when she and I got

885
01:12:26.880 --> 01:12:31.680
the post. She got the post
first when we left Charles's apartment after the

886
01:12:31.800 --> 01:12:36.199
whole transaction was done, and by
the way, after the transaction was done,

887
01:12:38.359 --> 01:12:43.239
he still invited us there. We
were there for about another thirty forty

888
01:12:43.319 --> 01:12:45.920
five minutes because he invited me in
his bedroom, showed me his collection of

889
01:12:46.000 --> 01:12:50.159
clothes and hats and this and that. After I paid him the money and

890
01:12:50.279 --> 01:12:55.279
count out the money in front of
him, he said, let's go to

891
01:12:55.399 --> 01:13:01.800
the table now to find the title. So I don't understand because we know

892
01:13:02.439 --> 01:13:10.640
at that time we didn't know anything
about thirteen thousand. Initially, when he

893
01:13:10.760 --> 01:13:14.000
first brought it up to my daughter, and my daughter brought it up to

894
01:13:14.079 --> 01:13:16.319
me. My daughter went, look, my daughter would not listen to this

895
01:13:16.479 --> 01:13:18.960
man say hey, my car,
I'm selling a car for thirteen thousand,

896
01:13:19.000 --> 01:13:21.560
five hundred. And then it come
to me and say, dad, he

897
01:13:21.720 --> 01:13:28.640
signed it for one thousand, three
hundred. Okay. So wherever the mis

898
01:13:29.319 --> 01:13:34.199
communication came in at I don't know
because when I went there, very intelligent

899
01:13:34.319 --> 01:13:44.920
man, he's very intact with reality, very smart, can hold a conversation

900
01:13:45.399 --> 01:13:50.439
just as well as any normal person. He brought up dementia. That's not

901
01:13:50.600 --> 01:13:54.720
true that they will not. I
find it very hard to believe that they

902
01:13:54.720 --> 01:14:00.600
would leave a man with dementia in
a normal apartment up the steps in a

903
01:14:00.640 --> 01:14:04.760
wheelchair with nothing to block the stairs. He can he can forget their stairs

904
01:14:04.840 --> 01:14:09.239
there, and just wrote right down
him if he had dementia and he didn't

905
01:14:09.239 --> 01:14:12.479
know what he was doing. He
also had a stove where he can cook,

906
01:14:12.600 --> 01:14:15.079
just like a normal person. If
he had the dementia, he can

907
01:14:15.159 --> 01:14:19.119
cook, beget he's cooking, and
burn down. The hope put everybody's life

908
01:14:19.159 --> 01:14:25.039
in danger. So I doubt there's
dementia in play here. And if I

909
01:14:25.439 --> 01:14:28.439
felt that there was dementia in play
here, that would have been a hole.

910
01:14:28.920 --> 01:14:30.199
But let me just tell you something. I'm a very good man.

911
01:14:30.239 --> 01:14:36.039
I'm an honest man. And he
also about I'm sorry I'm skipping here.

912
01:14:36.319 --> 01:14:45.520
So about the about the post,
Charles text that after we left, I

913
01:14:45.680 --> 01:14:49.680
followed my daughter. She was in
in the car the copee he just purchased.

914
01:14:50.199 --> 01:14:55.359
I was in my vehicle. I
followed her see me. We were

915
01:14:55.439 --> 01:15:00.279
going home nating. I know.
My daughter called me and said, hey,

916
01:15:00.000 --> 01:15:04.520
Charles just called me and said he
want us to bring him another twelve

917
01:15:04.600 --> 01:15:09.239
thousand dollars. And I'm just boffing. I'm like, what, what do

918
01:15:09.319 --> 01:15:12.720
you gotta be kidding me? You're
just joking, right, She said,

919
01:15:12.800 --> 01:15:15.840
no, No, he just told
me said he want another twelve thousand dollars.

920
01:15:15.760 --> 01:15:19.439
And I'm like, he gotta be
crazy. That's crazy. This doesn't

921
01:15:19.840 --> 01:15:24.800
We just staid over there for about
hour and a half plus of two hours

922
01:15:25.039 --> 01:15:30.000
dealing with this, and you know, and everything was fine, and then

923
01:15:30.159 --> 01:15:33.439
all of a sudden, she goes, oh, he just sent me a

924
01:15:33.600 --> 01:15:43.279
text too of the posts. So
that's the first time my daughter or I

925
01:15:43.640 --> 01:15:48.199
ever even seeing the posts, okay, because he texted to her after we

926
01:15:48.399 --> 01:15:53.439
left, so no one ever knew
that he had a post out there for

927
01:15:53.560 --> 01:15:59.119
thirteen thousand, five hundred dollars.
Sure, okay. And when you get

928
01:15:59.159 --> 01:16:03.880
on the air and you make accusation
telling them about you're going to get on

929
01:16:04.159 --> 01:16:11.239
air what somebody told you and make
it make it ring true? Is it

930
01:16:11.479 --> 01:16:15.039
just beyond me? Because not Richard, that was that was a joke.

931
01:16:15.119 --> 01:16:19.279
Okay. But let me explain something. I never actually assailed. I never

932
01:16:19.399 --> 01:16:25.279
actually assailed your characters. What I
said was this, it's wrong. I

933
01:16:25.399 --> 01:16:30.319
said it's wrong, and I stand
by that because she was a healthcare worker

934
01:16:30.039 --> 01:16:34.640
in a position of trust and did
business. That's what your problems with is

935
01:16:34.800 --> 01:16:38.680
not with my daughter. My daughter
doesn't make it rule. It's not even

936
01:16:38.720 --> 01:16:43.560
in a handbook. We went over. Our attorney went over at the handbook

937
01:16:44.000 --> 01:16:47.680
thoroughly. When did your attorney go
over that? Okay? And when did

938
01:16:47.720 --> 01:16:53.600
your attorney go over that? It
was like a couple of days later.

939
01:16:54.159 --> 01:17:02.680
Why why because she got fired as
well? She should as well? She

940
01:17:02.800 --> 01:17:09.600
should so are you swing? No? I applaud first Light for firing her.

941
01:17:10.119 --> 01:17:13.279
So what I want to know,
is this Are you suing first Light?

942
01:17:14.880 --> 01:17:17.560
Am I sorrying FirstLight? We're working
on that, but we're definitely seeing

943
01:17:17.600 --> 01:17:21.479
Charles. We're definitely seeing Charles.
You're gonna see an old You're going to

944
01:17:21.520 --> 01:17:26.520
sue an old man who doesn't have
squat after after you already got a car

945
01:17:26.680 --> 01:17:29.319
for ten percent, You're going to
sue him. Why are you going to

946
01:17:29.359 --> 01:17:30.800
sue him? Let me ask you
why? Because she lost her job?

947
01:17:31.359 --> 01:17:38.399
Answer? Let me answer, go
ahead. The reason why is because he

948
01:17:38.680 --> 01:17:43.359
called a Royal police and this is
what he told the police. Yeah,

949
01:17:43.399 --> 01:17:47.399
but this was a criminal This was
a criminal case. Yes, you got

950
01:17:47.439 --> 01:17:51.000
a case number. Yes, go
ahead, we got the record, Yeah,

951
01:17:51.079 --> 01:17:59.920
go ahead. Charles called the police
and told the police that my dog

952
01:18:00.319 --> 01:18:03.479
and myself walked around his car.
We can like we were, we were

953
01:18:03.600 --> 01:18:10.720
checking it out, got into it
and took off, stole his car.

954
01:18:12.199 --> 01:18:15.840
That's what he reported. That's what
he reported. Do I don't know anything

955
01:18:15.880 --> 01:18:24.479
about that. I don't know exactly
exactly. So Richard, Richard, let

956
01:18:24.520 --> 01:18:27.960
me explain something to you. Okay. I don't ever get the whole situation

957
01:18:28.119 --> 01:18:30.760
before I put it on the air. And I've been doing this for forty

958
01:18:30.800 --> 01:18:32.880
five years. Okay, so stop
telling me how to do my show.

959
01:18:33.199 --> 01:18:36.680
People call with accusations, and what
I do is get the other side of

960
01:18:36.760 --> 01:18:41.239
the story. Do I make conclusions? Yes, I do, and I

961
01:18:41.439 --> 01:18:46.199
still stand by my initial conclusion that
this transaction was wrong. Okay, that's

962
01:18:46.359 --> 01:18:50.600
my opinion. I'm not saying you're
a ripoff. You sound very credible.

963
01:18:50.680 --> 01:18:56.920
Actually, you sound very very credible. You do your story jibs, but

964
01:18:57.119 --> 01:19:00.039
so does Charles when he said how
he got into a discussion about selling his

965
01:19:00.159 --> 01:19:04.760
car. Now, listen, somebody's
telling the truth and somebody's not, and

966
01:19:05.039 --> 01:19:09.479
I aired both sides. Do you
have Do you have a problem with that,

967
01:19:09.680 --> 01:19:15.720
Richard buy something that A time is
selling. Do we have to understand

968
01:19:15.880 --> 01:19:23.960
the level of hurt. She is
not responsible for his legal obligation. She

969
01:19:24.119 --> 01:19:29.680
doesn't pay his rent bills. That's
right, and that's why that's why healthcare

970
01:19:29.800 --> 01:19:34.760
workers and people in positions of trust
should not do business with clients. And

971
01:19:34.880 --> 01:19:39.159
hear everything. Okay, I thought
you was a third party trying to you

972
01:19:39.239 --> 01:19:42.239
know the views. Well, actually
I am trying to hold on. I'm

973
01:19:42.239 --> 01:19:44.479
trying to be fair and get the
views. But I still want you to

974
01:19:44.600 --> 01:19:47.640
know I believe it's wrong. I'm
not lying to you about that, Richard.

975
01:19:47.720 --> 01:19:50.319
I'm being very open with you.
Hold on, I got to take

976
01:19:50.319 --> 01:19:54.159
a break, and Richard, I
swear to God, you can talk and

977
01:19:54.359 --> 01:19:58.119
talk and give all your I'm not
gonna I'm not gonna edit you. You

978
01:19:58.199 --> 01:20:00.840
can say anything you want. Want
you to make sure you get your entire

979
01:20:01.000 --> 01:20:04.359

you to know we haven't used your last

981
01:20:09.359 --> 01:20:13.159

want to stick around. I have

996
01:21:29.680 --> 01:21:33.720
on. He did not, Okay, I gave him a say, listen,

997
01:21:34.520 --> 01:21:41.319
you know I really did, and
I I'm trying to be fair.

998
01:21:41.520 --> 01:21:45.279
Although I have a biased I think
this is wrong. Now I applaud First

999
01:21:45.520 --> 01:21:50.840
Site Healthcare people who fired her.
I think it was appropriate in my opinion,

1000
01:21:51.399 --> 01:21:56.000
So I applaud them for that.
But I a first light, but

1001
01:21:56.119 --> 01:22:00.960
I do think they should step step
up a bit. That's my opinion again,

1002
01:22:00.760 --> 01:22:05.720
Tom can. I just got a
voicemail from Richard go ahead. It

1003
01:22:05.800 --> 01:22:12.239
said, Hey, do not bother
my daughter or myself no more. Do

1004
01:22:12.479 --> 01:22:15.600
not call his phone, Do not
harass my daughter anymore, because I will

1005
01:22:15.680 --> 01:22:19.840
sue the blank out of that blank
blank Tom Martino, he's a crook.

1006
01:22:20.479 --> 01:22:25.880
Okay, all right, And of
course Tom, I'm just repeating what no,

1007
01:22:26.039 --> 01:22:29.359
no, And you know something,
Doc. Can anyone say that interview

1008
01:22:29.399 --> 01:22:33.000
I had with him was unfair?
No? Yeah, he said everything.

1009
01:22:33.760 --> 01:22:39.640
In fact, I'm serious when I
say this. He sounds credible. And

1010
01:22:39.800 --> 01:22:46.119
I think there's a chance that Charles
is using an excuse of blanking out because

1011
01:22:46.159 --> 01:22:50.520
he's embarrassed, and I think that
he felt Here's what I think, And

1012
01:22:50.640 --> 01:22:55.479
I've done this before where you feel
a little intimidated. I don't mean like

1013
01:22:55.600 --> 01:22:58.119
in fear, but you just feel
like, oh, well, you know,

1014
01:22:58.560 --> 01:23:00.640
I don't want to make a big
fa and then you go ahead and

1015
01:23:00.720 --> 01:23:04.279
do something and then you feel bad
about it. I had a business transaction

1016
01:23:04.479 --> 01:23:08.760
where I did that. I swear
to you. I can think of it

1017
01:23:08.880 --> 01:23:12.439
right now and who I did it
with, and I was so sorry I

1018
01:23:12.560 --> 01:23:16.079
did it, but I did it, and I really did have a lapse

1019
01:23:16.119 --> 01:23:19.479
of judgment, Honest to god,
I did, and I was thinking certain

1020
01:23:19.560 --> 01:23:27.640
things were going to happen that didn't. It happened. So Charles, I'm

1021
01:23:27.680 --> 01:23:30.800
going to ask you once again,
you heard his complete story. Yes,

1022
01:23:30.920 --> 01:23:35.000
that the first time she saw that
post was when you texted it to her

1023
01:23:36.880 --> 01:23:45.159
after the sale. Okay, well
what do you have to say about that?

1024
01:23:45.680 --> 01:23:49.039
Oh, she saw it when she
was in my house the day before,

1025
01:23:50.880 --> 01:23:55.520
Yes, while she was there working, and that's why she came back.

1026
01:23:56.640 --> 01:24:06.399
Yes. Is it possible that these
people had no dishonesty in their heart

1027
01:24:06.560 --> 01:24:15.000
or mind and really thought you were
selling that for thirteen No? Not possible,

1028
01:24:15.119 --> 01:24:24.279
because Richard is driving a nice car
and I to do you think?

1029
01:24:24.359 --> 01:24:28.640
You know? But but what's wrong
with what's wrong with knowing that somebody's giving

1030
01:24:28.680 --> 01:24:32.520
you a screaming deal? What would
trigger him to think that you were being

1031
01:24:32.600 --> 01:24:41.199
taken advantage of? And Charles,
you say you blacked out? Yes,

1032
01:24:41.880 --> 01:24:45.279
but he said you took him into
the bedroom and showed him stuff? Did

1033
01:24:45.359 --> 01:24:49.399
you I get it because he told
me, you know, Richard, I

1034
01:24:49.680 --> 01:24:55.840
liked Richard Rick and Richard told me
what he does for a living, and

1035
01:24:56.000 --> 01:25:00.680
I was asking him if he could
I was showing him some hats, see,

1036
01:25:00.159 --> 01:25:02.680
you know, if that's what he
was talking about, he does for

1037
01:25:02.760 --> 01:25:05.960
a living, And we talked about
that. What does he do for a

1038
01:25:06.039 --> 01:25:12.560
living? I think he makes some
kind of decals to put on your cap

1039
01:25:12.680 --> 01:25:16.039
this personal or something like that.
You know, I saw all right,

1040
01:25:16.199 --> 01:25:21.560
listen, Charles, I don't know. This is going to be an uphill

1041
01:25:21.600 --> 01:25:27.039
battle. Bro Oh, can I
mention something? Go you there? He

1042
01:25:28.479 --> 01:25:31.680
talked about me having dementia. I've
never told him no no. You never

1043
01:25:31.800 --> 01:25:34.159
said no no. I know,
but I didn't interrupt him. You never

1044
01:25:34.239 --> 01:25:36.880
claimed to have dementia. What you
said was you have a tumor on the

1045
01:25:36.920 --> 01:25:42.000
brain. You're disabled, and you
say that you have a memory lapse from

1046
01:25:42.039 --> 01:25:45.319
time to time. I understand that. I don't know if listen, Charles,

1047
01:25:45.720 --> 01:25:48.920
I'm on your side that I think
this is wrong. I do think

1048
01:25:48.960 --> 01:25:53.359
it's wrong because of how it went
down, and I think First Light has

1049
01:25:53.439 --> 01:25:59.199
responsibility. I'm not sure. I'm
not sure after talking to Richard that he

1050
01:26:00.319 --> 01:26:04.279
knew what he was doing was wrong
or taking advantage of someone, and maybe

1051
01:26:04.399 --> 01:26:09.000
thought we just got a great deal. And then you thought, wait a

1052
01:26:09.079 --> 01:26:13.199
minute, thirteen hundred, I don't
have thirteen thousand. Then you texted her

1053
01:26:13.479 --> 01:26:15.479
when they left. He said,
you texted right after they left, right

1054
01:26:16.840 --> 01:26:21.920
or a few hours later. Okay, yes, but I don't understand why

1055
01:26:23.439 --> 01:26:27.439
you texted a few hours later.
When did you actually come back from your

1056
01:26:27.520 --> 01:26:33.319
blackout or from your laps? All
I know is that the money was still

1057
01:26:33.479 --> 01:26:41.319
laying where I had put it,
and I began to go spread it out.

1058
01:26:41.680 --> 01:26:44.000
All right, Hold on, Mark, real quick, I got to

1059
01:26:44.000 --> 01:26:45.239
take a break. Mark. What's
your comment? Go ahead, Mark,

1060
01:26:46.600 --> 01:26:51.680
I just wanted to make the comment
that Richard says he's a good, honest

1061
01:26:51.800 --> 01:26:57.520
person. Well, then if that's
the truth, undoe the deal, renegotiate

1062
01:26:57.640 --> 01:27:02.560
if he would like to renegotiate the
But it's obvious thirteen hundred dollars for a

1063
01:27:02.640 --> 01:27:10.439
thirteen thousand dollars card is not a
somebody that is being a good person.

1064
01:27:11.039 --> 01:27:12.840
Well, thank you, Mark.
We got to take a break. I

01:29:14.479 --> 01:29:16.640
Terry, go ahead. What's happening
with you? Terry, Welcome to the

1089
01:29:16.720 --> 01:29:23.920
show. I'm Tom Martino. Nice, what's happening? What's going on?

1090
01:29:27.439 --> 01:29:33.039
I have I used to grow my
own my own medicine when it became legal

1091
01:29:33.079 --> 01:29:38.479
in the state of Colorado. I
have always been legal, been growing my

1092
01:29:39.000 --> 01:29:45.479
medical marijuana Eastern yodical winds, and
I was I had a cultivator card and

1093
01:29:45.520 --> 01:29:49.439
I applied for the ninety nine fact
count cultivator cars. Yeah, I was

1094
01:29:49.479 --> 01:29:54.119
approved for it. I paid five
hundred dollars and as long as I was

1095
01:29:54.199 --> 01:30:00.239
growing on unresidential then by myself that
I was allowed to have this pack out

1096
01:30:00.640 --> 01:30:05.319
case. And so you paid five
hundred dollars for what for ninety for basically

1097
01:30:05.520 --> 01:30:11.039
to be able for the ability to
grow nine marijuana plants, okay, And

1098
01:30:11.119 --> 01:30:15.560
that's called a cultivator's license or card. Yes, yes, sir, okay,

1099
01:30:15.640 --> 01:30:19.239
good, okay. So I get
this card, and because I had

1100
01:30:19.319 --> 01:30:23.640
been growing, I already have the
holes there. So it was it was

1101
01:30:23.720 --> 01:30:25.399
just easy, you know, I
mean it was, yeah, I get

1102
01:30:25.439 --> 01:30:29.840
it, so you could grow ninety
nine plants. And then what happened in

1103
01:30:29.920 --> 01:30:34.640
the middle of the year the state
cut the count into fifty. But you

1104
01:30:34.680 --> 01:30:36.720
know, okay, they never gave
me a refund. That's one thing.

1105
01:30:38.119 --> 01:30:40.880
Wait a minute, so hold on
the state that said from now on,

1106
01:30:41.079 --> 01:30:45.680
cultivator cards are only good for fifty
plans. Yeah, well at that time,

1107
01:30:45.840 --> 01:30:47.680
this is in twenty seventeen, because
if this is this is this is

1108
01:30:48.479 --> 01:30:51.279
I have been through a hell in
back with this is marijuana thing, because

1109
01:30:51.279 --> 01:30:56.520
I've been convicted of two felonies because
of this. And okay, that's right.

1110
01:30:57.039 --> 01:31:01.439
Back in two seventeen is when you
paid that yes sir, yes,

1111
01:31:01.640 --> 01:31:05.920
or to a license position on the
license to I get it. I get

1112
01:31:05.920 --> 01:31:11.960
it, and then they cut When
did they cut the plants? I know

1113
01:31:13.359 --> 01:31:15.640
it was. I just believe it
was like in the middle. It was

1114
01:31:15.680 --> 01:31:17.399
in the middle of my bow year, so it would be like, so

1115
01:31:17.520 --> 01:31:24.000
wait, in the same year you
bought the card, yes, okay,

1116
01:31:24.279 --> 01:31:28.560
and all all of our grow anybody
that grows there, because we have a

1117
01:31:28.640 --> 01:31:31.439
card, your your grow is governed. I mean that, I get it.

1118
01:31:31.640 --> 01:31:35.800
I get it. Okay, so
when they cut the number of plants,

1119
01:31:36.119 --> 01:31:42.439
when they cut the number of plants
to fifty, did you did you

1120
01:31:42.680 --> 01:31:45.920
cut the number of plants you grew? Well, yes, I did,

1121
01:31:45.960 --> 01:31:48.960
well I cut them down. But
they also don't give up notices in the

1122
01:31:49.000 --> 01:31:51.279
mail or anything like that. You
have to do. So, why were

1123
01:31:51.319 --> 01:31:57.800
you arrested on a felony? Okay? Well, no, nowhere at that

1124
01:31:58.000 --> 01:32:03.000
time that year did it stay in
any any any of the government's literatures or

1125
01:32:03.039 --> 01:32:08.600
statues or anything like that. How
much one marijuana seed could yield? Okay,

1126
01:32:08.680 --> 01:32:11.199
well, the way I was taught
to grow. Well, I'm to

1127
01:32:11.479 --> 01:32:15.039
go, terry, Terry, you're
getting You're getting a note pun intended too

1128
01:32:15.119 --> 01:32:17.680
much into the weed. I need
to know, Well, I need to

1129
01:32:17.800 --> 01:32:21.319
know why were you arrested. I
don't need to know a lesson on growing.

1130
01:32:21.439 --> 01:32:25.880
Why were you arrested? What was
the charge? Well, it's not

1131
01:32:26.079 --> 01:32:29.039
it's not a lesson I'm growing.
It's about the weight that I had on

1132
01:32:29.159 --> 01:32:31.560
me because at that's a property,
because it's sold another There's been a lot

1133
01:32:31.600 --> 01:32:34.760
of people coming in from all over
the world to be able to grow here

1134
01:32:34.800 --> 01:32:39.319
in Colorado at that time. And
like I said, no, where do

1135
01:32:39.359 --> 01:32:42.600
there's the state how much one marijuana
seed could yield at that type either.

1136
01:32:43.079 --> 01:32:46.039
And I was taught to go one
one time proceeed. So I had fifty

1137
01:32:46.119 --> 01:32:51.319
pounds left. I obviously they all
didn't come out right, but I changed

1138
01:32:51.359 --> 01:32:55.920
thirty pounds in marijuana. Was a
ninety nine plant card that was cut in

1139
01:32:56.039 --> 01:32:59.279
half, and I had to go
move it. That went to the ranch.

1140
01:32:59.439 --> 01:33:03.279
It would be maybe Terry, Terry, listen, man, I need

1141
01:33:03.399 --> 01:33:09.960

01:33:13.399 --> 01:33:15.199
I got to the rack, I
put on my trunk, back to

1144
01:33:15.399 --> 01:33:17.880
the car and I covered it up. I was by myself. I go

1145
01:33:18.000 --> 01:33:20.880
back to my house and I got
stuck at the at the bottom of the

1146
01:33:20.960 --> 01:33:24.399
gate. I couldn't get through the
gate, but off through. The sheriff

1147
01:33:24.479 --> 01:33:28.439

Because of the weight? They said

agreement immediately, and I'm like, I'm

1174
01:35:19.399 --> 01:35:21.520
not going to take the pay agrement
because I didn't do what they're saying I

1175
01:35:21.600 --> 01:35:26.279
did. I fired four public defenders
because none of them gave me crap about

01:35:26.319 --> 01:35:28.880
what was going on with the elector
brought that they had a window in their

1177
01:35:28.920 --> 01:35:31.279
office. You know what, I
went pro sae and the judge let me

1178
01:35:31.319 --> 01:35:36.920
go pro say and you know what, I was convicted by jury of a

1179
01:35:38.039 --> 01:35:42.199
judge I got. I got the
transcripts. I should have gone the transcripts

1180

She didn't give me a bond,
even on the transfers, it says I

1187
01:36:15.359 --> 01:36:17.159
pard in court. According to c
JC, the jail here, I did

1188
01:36:17.239 --> 01:36:20.479
not. I was never even transferred
from the jail and the okay. And

1189
01:36:20.520 --> 01:36:26.439
I said, yeah, that's a
lie. Hold on, you're giving me

1190
01:36:26.560 --> 01:36:30.039
way too much. So the main
call today, Terry, let me just

1191
01:36:30.119 --> 01:36:35.960
sum it up, is that someone
you believe is using your name to perpetrate

1192
01:36:36.159 --> 01:36:41.640
fraud. Is that a short version? They tried to kill me too.

1193
01:36:42.000 --> 01:36:44.039
As soon as I got out of
jail. Ten hours later, I was

1194
01:36:44.079 --> 01:36:48.319
slammed on my wayter Monument to clean
my boss's house at seventy five miles an

1195
01:36:48.319 --> 01:36:51.680
hour. Lady slammed me in the
back of my car and wrote, my

1196
01:36:51.800 --> 01:36:56.439
ma, wait wait, wait,
you think that was a plot to kill

1197
01:36:56.520 --> 01:37:00.439
you? Oh yeah, oh yeah, okay, but hold on about the

1198
01:37:00.520 --> 01:37:02.560
driver? Well what about the driver
of that car? Wouldn't they be hurt

1199
01:37:02.640 --> 01:37:08.239
too? But yeah, oh yeah. I believe that either she owed somebody

1200
01:37:08.560 --> 01:37:11.960
or that she was sent her to
do that. But I and she volunteered

1201
01:37:12.000 --> 01:37:15.159
to hurt herself. Was she hurt
in this accident. Oh no, oh

1202
01:37:15.239 --> 01:37:17.279
no, she was not hurt at
all, but she came across three lanes

1203
01:37:18.039 --> 01:37:24.279
and avoiding a black car that was
never proven Terry, Terry, this all

1204
01:37:24.399 --> 01:37:30.039
sounds crazy. Well yeah, well
they also just replicated my probation and Reis

1205
01:37:30.079 --> 01:37:33.399
stated it to the same way.
Why were you taking medical marijuana? What

1206
01:37:33.640 --> 01:37:40.560
was the underlying cause? Well,
I have and that's a that's a disease

1207
01:37:40.600 --> 01:37:45.479
in my eyes. Yeah, and
I also have been have terrible PTSD from

1208
01:37:45.680 --> 01:37:50.399
being bit I used to be its
work at animal control should be so hold

1209
01:37:50.439 --> 01:37:59.279
on, hold on ding, hold
on PTSD right? You have PTSD?

1210
01:37:59.479 --> 01:38:03.960
Right, Terry? Yes? Are
you on any other medications other than marijuana?

1211
01:38:05.319 --> 01:38:10.279
Uh no, I take xanags for
anxiety, but that's it. Don't

1212
01:38:10.319 --> 01:38:12.840
take it. I don't think it. Has anyone ever talked to you about

1213
01:38:12.960 --> 01:38:20.880
possibly having a paranoid condition. Well, I wasn't paranoid until I got my

1214
01:38:20.960 --> 01:38:25.000
medicine taken away and I got slammed
in the character in a car accident,

1215
01:38:25.079 --> 01:38:28.399
and then I okay, let me
ask you, how do you know this

1216
01:38:28.640 --> 01:38:33.199
judge is using your name to buy
securities because it's on my register of actions

1217
01:38:33.239 --> 01:38:36.439
and she is known as a professional
cash bond agent that does not register in

1218
01:38:36.479 --> 01:38:41.439
the second Why would she buy cas
reponds in your name? What would be

1219
01:38:41.520 --> 01:38:46.760
the benefit uh for her financial I
guess more abundance. Because she revocated my

1220
01:38:46.840 --> 01:38:50.560
probation, I hired. I hired
a lawyer named mister Borden. Right now,

1221
01:38:50.640 --> 01:38:55.560
are you under any charges right now? Well? Yeah, well yeah,

1222
01:38:55.680 --> 01:39:00.399
Well they want to put me in
prison because I want you to Mexico.

1223
01:39:00.439 --> 01:39:01.600
If I went to New Mexico and
I was I was in trouble in

1224
01:39:01.640 --> 01:39:04.199
that a warrant for me, then
they would have known that I jumped state

1225
01:39:04.279 --> 01:39:08.680
lions. Well when I come back, where do you live? Do you

1226
01:39:08.800 --> 01:39:12.159
live in a home by yourself or
an apartment? Well? Actually, you

1227
01:39:12.239 --> 01:39:14.840
know what, I just saw my
own apartment. But I have kids and

1228
01:39:14.880 --> 01:39:17.600
grandchids, and like, yea,
how do you support yourself, Terry?

1229
01:39:18.960 --> 01:39:24.039
Right now? I support myself my
usband's telimony. But he is also using

1230
01:39:24.119 --> 01:39:30.760
my name and my kids names.
Terry, Terry, Terry. I can't

1231
01:39:30.479 --> 01:39:33.840
I can't really help you, but
I would like listen. I would like

1232
01:39:33.960 --> 01:39:39.119
to tell you that there might be
and I don't mean this as an insult.

1233
01:39:39.239 --> 01:39:44.159
I truly mean this as a friend. You may have, Terry.

1234
01:39:44.960 --> 01:39:50.720
With your PTSD combined with everything else, you might have a paranoid kind of

1235
01:39:50.840 --> 01:39:55.359
problem. You might have some kind
of bipolar problem. I don't know,

1236
01:39:55.640 --> 01:40:01.439
but you should see a psychiatrist or
a psychologist. Did you tell them about

1237
01:40:01.479 --> 01:40:04.880
the judge using your name and all
of that, Yes, sir, I've

1238
01:40:04.920 --> 01:40:08.800
been telling mister Low about this since
Dave. Are they listening to you,

1239
01:40:09.199 --> 01:40:13.159
Terry, Yes, well, yes, listen to me because in one of

1240
01:40:13.199 --> 01:40:15.760
the one of the only places that
does not Okay, send me, Okay,

1241
01:40:15.840 --> 01:40:18.079
listen, I have to. I
have to take a break. I'm

1242
01:40:18.119 --> 01:40:20.479
not trying to push you off,
but what I'm saying is this, Okay,

1243
01:40:21.000 --> 01:40:24.359
Terry, I can't help you.
I don't know what you want me

1244
01:40:24.479 --> 01:40:27.319
to do. First, in a
sentence, tell me what you want me

1245

to do. I want you to
reveild a fraudulent corruptions and the cohersion that's

the school district? Sherry? What's happening?

1259
01:41:32.439 --> 01:41:35.760
Well, I mean, we know
bullying's not going to go away anytime

1260
01:41:35.880 --> 01:41:39.960
soon, but we're at a point
of bullying that I don't know who to

1261
01:41:40.039 --> 01:41:43.880
reach out to you to help to
ask now usually now, usually these schools

1262
01:41:43.960 --> 01:41:47.359
go overboard with bullying. So I
have no idea. Why talk about this,

1263
01:41:47.479 --> 01:41:50.920
Sherry? Tell me what do you
mean by bullying exactly? What's going

1264
01:41:50.960 --> 01:41:58.119
on? Well, there's this little
girl at my granddaughter's school that has decided

1265
01:41:58.239 --> 01:42:00.359
that. You know, she keeps
asking her, do you want to fight?

1266
01:42:00.439 --> 01:42:02.880
And my granddaughter's like, no,
I thought we were friends. So

1267
01:42:03.079 --> 01:42:06.520
it just started get escalating where she
was pushing her, having her older sister

1268
01:42:06.960 --> 01:42:10.840
in high school, or her older
sister that's twenty one, you know,

1269
01:42:10.960 --> 01:42:14.399
walk by and you know, say
these little snide comments to her. So

1270
01:42:14.560 --> 01:42:17.479
I approached the school and I was
like, well, you guys need to

1271
01:42:18.079 --> 01:42:21.439
they do it, not what's called
no contact order, like we're no contact

1272
01:42:21.560 --> 01:42:25.079
order for now, which of course
isn't legal. It just tells the children

1273
01:42:25.119 --> 01:42:28.680
that they sign this agreement that they
won't talk to each other, okay until

1274
01:42:28.720 --> 01:42:30.800
they're in you know, in the
mindset to talk and solve the problem,

1275
01:42:31.079 --> 01:42:33.199
right. You know, we're not
going to point at each other. We're

1276
01:42:33.199 --> 01:42:36.439
not going to do any of that. Well, it's escalated to the point

1277
01:42:36.439 --> 01:42:41.239
where the little girl has everybody pointing
and laughing at her. She posted a

1278
01:42:41.319 --> 01:42:44.880
picture of her on TikTok and talked
about how ugly she was. She had

1279
01:42:44.960 --> 01:42:47.840
some little other friends, you know
that my granddaughter thought were friends. They

1280
01:42:47.880 --> 01:42:51.920
were supposed address the same for Valentine's
Day, and then she showed up wearing

1281
01:42:51.960 --> 01:42:55.479
what they were supposed to wear,
and they're all laughing at her because she

1282
01:42:55.560 --> 01:43:00.359
wore the wrong day. You know, how old is your granddaughter? Twelve?

1283
01:43:00.239 --> 01:43:04.640
And then she was at school on
the twenty eighth, and she got

1284
01:43:04.760 --> 01:43:09.239
up to go to the bathroom and
these six little girls ran out of class

1285
01:43:09.359 --> 01:43:12.880
and followed her. She was stuck
in the stall for ten minutes. At

1286
01:43:12.960 --> 01:43:16.039
least ten minutes. She had to
call out because nobody noticed those seven little

1287
01:43:16.039 --> 01:43:18.920
girls were missing. We know she
was stuck there for ten minutes, which

1288
01:43:19.000 --> 01:43:23.840
called out to my other daughter and
my daughter who called me, and I

1289
01:43:24.039 --> 01:43:27.680
was calling the school and driving over
there. They did not answer the phone,

1290
01:43:27.880 --> 01:43:30.279
and when they did answer the phone, they hung up on me because

1291
01:43:30.560 --> 01:43:33.640
she said she didn't like my tone
and she didn't have to talk to me

1292
01:43:34.039 --> 01:43:36.159
and the school. I asked the
school to call the police, and because

1293
01:43:36.159 --> 01:43:40.520
at this point this is serious,
you're holding her captive in the bathroom,

1294
01:43:40.600 --> 01:43:43.079
like, oh, it's no big
deal, they refused to call the police.

1295
01:43:44.079 --> 01:43:47.279
Captive Sherry. You know, there's
six of them and there's one of

1296
01:43:47.359 --> 01:43:51.800
her. So the threat were they
physically keeping the door closed telling her not

1297
01:43:51.920 --> 01:43:57.319
to come out, Not that I
wasn't there. She says. They weren't

1298
01:43:57.359 --> 01:44:00.439
necessarily saying not to come out,
but the implication was or they were telling

1299
01:44:00.479 --> 01:44:03.560
her if you do come out,
we're going to kick your ass. Period.

1300
01:44:03.640 --> 01:44:08.079
Well, let me ask you something. What and you're saying the school

1301
01:44:08.199 --> 01:44:11.840
is doing nothing about it. So
their solution is it's like, well,

1302
01:44:11.920 --> 01:44:14.960
we'll walk your granddaughter to school.
Well, why are we walking the victor

1303
01:44:15.079 --> 01:44:16.600
art to class? Why are we
walking the victim to class? Why don't

1304
01:44:16.600 --> 01:44:21.199
we walk the bullies to class?
Why? You know, they're supposed to

1305
01:44:21.239 --> 01:44:28.039
pursue this, they're supposed to make
harsher consequences, Like what are the there's

1306
01:44:28.199 --> 01:44:31.800
no consequence of the school. What
is the name of the school? She's

1307
01:44:31.840 --> 01:44:35.600
not performing arts, But it's the
entire district that I'm having that I can

1308
01:44:35.640 --> 01:44:39.039
see if the bullying is out of
control. Today I got a phone call

1309
01:44:39.079 --> 01:44:42.920
from my grandson's school and he's only
nine, saying that during assembly, a

1310
01:44:42.960 --> 01:44:46.119
little boy walked across the you know
the gym, blapped in the class the

1311
01:44:46.159 --> 01:44:49.079
face so hard that his classic's flying
off, and I'm like, when is

1312
01:44:49.119 --> 01:44:53.319
the school? I understand you can't
stop bullying entirely, but when are we

1313
01:44:53.359 --> 01:44:58.600
going to put some programs into place
to slow down the bullying. I didn't

1314
01:44:58.640 --> 01:45:01.760
realize it was such a big I
know there's bullying, but I thought schools

1315
01:45:01.800 --> 01:45:06.239
were doing you know, this is
my perception was that schools were doing a

1316
01:45:06.319 --> 01:45:12.439
lot to stop it. You're saying
they're not. No, I actually moved

1317
01:45:12.479 --> 01:45:15.960
through schools, and we actually even
moved her. They call it ensembles instead

1318
01:45:15.000 --> 01:45:18.720
of classrooms like they called it.
It's like instead of homeroom, it's called

1319
01:45:18.840 --> 01:45:25.159
ensemble. And she actually moved ensembles
to get away from this little girl because

1320
01:45:25.279 --> 01:45:29.359
the pointing, the laughing, the
having her brothers or her sisters. She

1321
01:45:29.359 --> 01:45:31.760
doesn't have brothers. Her sister's pointing
out her has gotten to the point she's

1322
01:45:31.800 --> 01:45:34.560
like, I just wanted to stop. She's like, and here's the kicker

1323
01:45:34.600 --> 01:45:36.800
of it. My Gander's like,
yeah, but twelve year old listen,

1324
01:45:36.960 --> 01:45:42.720
I'm not saying this is not happening. But twelve year old girls can exaggerate

1325
01:45:42.760 --> 01:45:47.039
a bit. Yes, absolutely,
they could, Yes they could. Does

1326
01:45:47.119 --> 01:45:53.600
she have any friends that witness this
that will attest to it. Yes,

1327
01:45:53.880 --> 01:45:59.800
I mean we've done all of that
kind of investigating. What do you think

1328
01:46:00.000 --> 01:46:01.279
should be done? Let me ask
you that straight up, what do you

1329
01:46:01.359 --> 01:46:04.920
think should be done? I think
she should go to in state. She

1330
01:46:05.119 --> 01:46:09.279
put these girls and in school suspension
for a few weeks. I think the

1331
01:46:09.359 --> 01:46:13.920
problem when you get this kind of
amount of and it's not just it's cyberbullying,

1332
01:46:14.000 --> 01:46:17.159
it's walking by her house like it's
more than just you know, it

1333
01:46:17.399 --> 01:46:20.640
keeps escalating. Well, my granddaughter's
like, I just want to we were

1334
01:46:20.680 --> 01:46:23.520
friends. She's like, I don't
want to get her in trouble. I

1335
01:46:23.560 --> 01:46:27.640
don't want to fight. I just
They even actually went through my granddaughter's phone,

1336
01:46:27.960 --> 01:46:30.199
so you asked me that, and
they actually have the messages. They

1337
01:46:30.199 --> 01:46:34.640
actually took the messages when they investigated
and said that she actually handled it appropriately,

1338
01:46:34.920 --> 01:46:38.399
and the other little girl was still
threatening her where she was like,

1339
01:46:38.520 --> 01:46:41.399
I just want to be friends,
you know, or just not be friends.

1340
01:46:41.439 --> 01:46:44.560
I just I don't understand what the
problem is, but I don't want

1341
01:46:44.560 --> 01:46:45.479
to fight with you. And the
other little girl's like, well that's too

1342
01:46:45.520 --> 01:46:47.880
bad, because me and my friends
are going to beat you up. So

1343
01:46:48.159 --> 01:46:53.079
yes, it has been es you
know, investigated, and she has tried

1344
01:46:53.119 --> 01:46:59.840
to be escalated. So they are
doing something. They are doing, so

1345
01:47:00.000 --> 01:47:03.960
something about it. Not necessarily.
They're just saying, well, we'll move

1346
01:47:04.079 --> 01:47:06.880
her from a class. You know, the fine, we move ensembles.

1347
01:47:08.399 --> 01:47:11.640
But that's it. That's all that
happens. The pointing, the laughing,

1348
01:47:12.000 --> 01:47:14.439
you know, the guinea trapped in
the boundary. I don't know that can

1349
01:47:14.520 --> 01:47:16.800
be stopped. Pointing and laughing.
I don't know if that's considered bullying,

1350
01:47:17.600 --> 01:47:20.800
see Sherry. I mean, I
had kids in school not too long ago,

1351
01:47:21.159 --> 01:47:25.239
but I don't. I have another
kid in high school still, but

1352
01:47:25.520 --> 01:47:30.520
I don't. What I don't understand
is what's considered bullying. I mean,

1353
01:47:30.560 --> 01:47:33.720
if if they're jerks and laughing and
pointing, is that bullying. I don't

1354
01:47:33.800 --> 01:47:38.439
know the answer to that. And
I don't know what schools can do about

1355
01:47:38.479 --> 01:47:42.079
it. I mean, I truly
don't. I don't, Sherry. And

1356
01:47:42.159 --> 01:47:47.000
there might not be an answer except
moving schools there, And you're gonna say,

1357
01:47:47.039 --> 01:47:50.640
why should she have to move schools
because of other people? I don't.

1358
01:47:53.079 --> 01:47:56.039
I'd love to get you on the
show tomorrow, I swear to God,

1359
01:47:56.119 --> 01:47:58.880
because you're gonna run out of time, and I want to get parents'

1360
01:47:58.920 --> 01:48:01.279
opinions on bullying. So if you
would be kind enough to hold on,

1361
01:48:01.760 --> 01:48:06.199
I will explore this more. Look
Kachina, get her number and let's call

1362
01:48:06.279 --> 01:48:10.760
her back. And what I'd like
to do is talk to other parents if

1363
01:48:10.840 --> 01:48:14.680
you're listening, who have problems of
bullying? Is this true that is going

1364

on and schools are not doing enough? Let me know please three oh three

Probid Energy dot com. Brad O'Brien,

1379
01:49:33.439 --> 01:49:41.119
We are having a plethora of calls
on HOA fees. I don't know what

1380
01:49:41.239 --> 01:49:44.800
we can say about it, because
what can you really do about it?

1381
01:49:45.399 --> 01:49:49.560
People say, if our HOA wants
to raise fees, can they do it?

1382
01:49:49.680 --> 01:49:53.560
I mean, what do you tell
people when they call? Have you

1383
01:49:53.600 --> 01:49:57.520
ever had anyone maybe bring in bylaws? I don't think anyone reads bylaws.

1384
01:49:57.600 --> 01:50:01.520
What do you think? Yes,
generally HA boards do have the discretion to

1385
01:50:01.640 --> 01:50:08.800
raise dues regulator and to even change
their rules. Yeah, there's a heightened

1386
01:50:08.880 --> 01:50:12.760
voting requirement, like a bigger percentage
of the vote to actually change the governing

1387
01:50:12.840 --> 01:50:15.600
documents. But yeah, they do
have the discretion to if they get the

1388
01:50:15.680 --> 01:50:21.560
right enough votes to pass budgets and
increase the dues if necessary. So if

1389
01:50:23.119 --> 01:50:26.039
hoas say, you know, we
promise not to raise your dues by so

1390
01:50:26.239 --> 01:50:30.159
much like this one woman called,
you know, if they can't pay their

1391
01:50:30.239 --> 01:50:32.960
bills. It would be unconsciable.
They have to raise dues. I mean,

1392
01:50:33.000 --> 01:50:38.520
you can't possibly have a document like
that that can be enforced, because

1393
01:50:38.560 --> 01:50:41.680
what if they can only raise by
a certain percentage of years, Like she

1394
01:50:41.840 --> 01:50:44.680
said, well, that's stupid.
Okay, So now let's say they can

1395
01:50:44.760 --> 01:50:48.199
only raise rates by thirty dollars and
it leaves them fifty grand in the hole.

1396
01:50:48.279 --> 01:50:53.079
They can't do that. I've reviewed
a lot of HA documents. I've

1397
01:50:53.199 --> 01:50:57.880
never seen an annual cap like that
in never have eye either. Never not

1398
01:50:57.960 --> 01:51:01.399
to say that it couldn't be done, but maybe in the old days they

1399
01:51:01.439 --> 01:51:04.880
did. It is setting up a
problem to if if there's a cap and

1400
01:51:04.920 --> 01:51:09.760
that's just not enough. And and
what people don't realize when they say my

1401
01:51:10.119 --> 01:51:13.680
HOA dos went up, I don't
want to pay them, you know,

1402
01:51:14.159 --> 01:51:17.560
or that the HOA, even though
there might be a board and all that,

1403
01:51:17.640 --> 01:51:21.319
the HOA is them. I mean, in other words, you all

1404
01:51:21.520 --> 01:51:25.960
have to pay the bills. The
only thing I think they have the power

1405
01:51:26.000 --> 01:51:28.520
to do is to make sure the
money's not being wasted. They can look

1406
01:51:28.560 --> 01:51:32.920
at the budget. How many people
go to budget meetings? Though it just

1407
01:51:33.000 --> 01:51:36.880
depends on what the issues are really? Now? Would you do you have

1408
01:51:36.960 --> 01:51:42.279
a right as an owner to see
the budget? Yes, you do.

1409
01:51:43.439 --> 01:51:47.039
The statue says what documents you can
see, and then the budget is one

1410
01:51:47.079 --> 01:51:50.399
of them. And if you look
at the budget, I mean, that's

1411
01:51:50.439 --> 01:51:54.279
all you can do, you know. In other words, people are so

1412
01:51:54.479 --> 01:52:00.760
upset if insurance rates triple. You've
heard of that happening? What do homeowner

1413
01:52:00.960 --> 01:52:05.720
hoas They don't have a choice but
to raise their dues right now? If

1414
01:52:05.840 --> 01:52:12.800
dues are artificially low and a giant
assessment happens due to damage or repairs,

1415
01:52:13.359 --> 01:52:17.600
what happens, Well, normally the
boards pass a special assessment. And what

1416
01:52:17.640 --> 01:52:23.199
does that mean every homeowner has to
pay? Yeah, okay, okay,

1417
01:52:23.880 --> 01:52:26.079
they say, wait, I don't
want to pay it, I can't pay

1418
01:52:26.119 --> 01:52:29.680
it. What happens in that case? If you ever had calls from people

1419
01:52:29.720 --> 01:52:31.479
who didn't want to pay the assessment? Sure, sometimes people get hit for

1420
01:52:31.560 --> 01:52:35.279
ten or fifteen thousand for a special
assessment to replace windows or replace a right

1421
01:52:35.359 --> 01:52:39.760
because the deductibles on the insurance policy
was too high. What do you tell

1422
01:52:39.800 --> 01:52:44.039
them? Well, if it was, if the voting was proper, then

1423
01:52:44.119 --> 01:52:46.880
yes they've got to pay it.
And not only pay it or lose their

1424
01:52:46.920 --> 01:52:50.199
condo. Can't they get a foreclosure
on that? Sure, whatever you owe,

1425
01:52:50.239 --> 01:52:56.720
the HA is leaning against your property. Brad O'Brien O'Brien Legal Services,

1426
01:52:56.840 --> 01:53:00.119
I'm telling you a lot of these
people, a lot of things happening with

1427
01:53:00.199 --> 01:53:03.920
town owns and condus. You can't
help OLS law dot Com seven to zero

1428
01:53:04.039 --> 01:53:08.439
three seven zero seventy three eighty eight. Jennifer, what's going on with your

1429
01:53:08.479 --> 01:53:18.920
employer? Well? I was fired
on last Monday. Why I have no

1430
01:53:19.039 --> 01:53:24.039
clue? Okay? Why? Okay, you were not given a reason.

1431
01:53:24.479 --> 01:53:28.239
What do you do for a living? I'm gonna cast here at the gas

1432
01:53:28.279 --> 01:53:33.840
station. Okay, So go on
with your story. Well, I was

1433
01:53:36.039 --> 01:53:40.079
I was given a text at nine
o'clock in the morning. I was given

1434
01:53:40.159 --> 01:53:45.039
a text message and was told that
my services will no longer be needed.

1435
01:53:45.680 --> 01:53:50.520
Okay, fine, I said,
Well I need my check. Yeah,

1436
01:53:50.760 --> 01:53:55.640
there is a day back in November
that they have yet to pay me for.

1437
01:53:57.079 --> 01:53:59.560
It might have gotten missed, Okay, fine, but still they need

1438
01:53:59.640 --> 01:54:01.319
to pay me for that and for
what I worked. Now, why hold

1439
01:54:01.399 --> 01:54:05.359
on, hold on a second.
At the time they fire you, if

1440
01:54:05.399 --> 01:54:09.840
they fire you, they have to
pay you, I believe within forty eight

1441
01:54:09.920 --> 01:54:14.880
hours if you quit. If you
quit, it's the next scheduled pay period.

1442
01:54:15.520 --> 01:54:18.680
So are you just are they not
paying you anything? Or is it

1443
01:54:18.920 --> 01:54:25.680
just this one day they have they
haven't paid me a nine and I've been

1444
01:54:25.720 --> 01:54:29.800
trying to get a hold of somebody
I've got. Okay, you're you were

1445
01:54:29.840 --> 01:54:32.199
a W two employee. Where where
is this guest? What's the name?

1446
01:54:34.000 --> 01:54:40.960
It's a Volero fast Mart? Okay, So wait a minute, they just

1447
01:54:41.159 --> 01:54:45.960
flat out refuse to pay you.
I don't know. They're just they have

1448
01:54:45.079 --> 01:54:50.680
yet paying me my paycheck? How
much do they owe you? A couple

1449
01:54:50.800 --> 01:54:57.279
hundred bucks? And they're not no, no, I but they're not disputing

1450
01:54:57.359 --> 01:55:00.720
that, right, I don't know. That's the thing, is nobo?

1451
01:55:00.960 --> 01:55:05.600
Okay? Do you have the manager's
name and phone number? Yep? He

1452
01:55:05.800 --> 01:55:14.159
refuses and talk to me. Okay, why you don't have any idea?

1453
01:55:14.239 --> 01:55:17.039
Why I have no clue? Do
you know? Do you know if you

1454
01:55:17.399 --> 01:55:20.359
if you write them and do you
have their email? Do you have their

1455
01:55:20.399 --> 01:55:25.359
email? Yes? Okay? I
want you to give the email and the

1456
01:55:25.479 --> 01:55:30.600
phone number and the manager's name to
Kachina. But here's what I want to

1457
01:55:30.640 --> 01:55:34.960
tell you you can sue them.
You can give them a warning that they

1458
01:55:35.079 --> 01:55:40.520
owe you the money, and you
can sue them for triple damages. You

1459
01:55:40.640 --> 01:55:45.680
can. Did you also call the
waging hour people in Colorado? Yes?

1460
01:55:45.760 --> 01:55:48.239
I have. Oh good, they
will get back to you. When did

1461
01:55:48.319 --> 01:55:53.359
you file a complaint with them?
I did it. I gave them over

1462
01:55:53.479 --> 01:55:56.239
seventy two hours. I give them
till Friday to get my paycheck too.

1463
01:55:56.319 --> 01:56:00.760
Okay, hold on, so you
already warned them, right, I just

1464
01:56:00.880 --> 01:56:03.600
did that this morning. Okay,
Now listen, if they don't pay you

1465
01:56:03.720 --> 01:56:08.800
by the time you gave them,
you can take them to small claims court

1466
01:56:08.880 --> 01:56:13.399
and get triple the amount. Triple. I'm serious, Jennifer, and this

1467
01:56:13.600 --> 01:56:15.039
is not a company that's going to
go bankrupt. They're going to have to

1468
01:56:15.119 --> 01:56:19.840
pay it right now. Listen,
if you want us to call that manager

1469
01:56:19.920 --> 01:56:23.439
and tell them that, we'd be
happy to do that. But I'm going

1470
01:56:23.520 --> 01:56:27.880
to tell you something. You might
want to wait and do the small claims

1471
01:56:27.960 --> 01:56:30.119
for triple damages, and we can
help you do that. I mean,

1472
01:56:30.159 --> 01:56:32.359
we're not going to file it for
you, but we can give you the

1473
01:56:32.439 --> 01:56:38.479
advice on how to do it.
Okay, I would say, when did

1474
01:56:38.520 --> 01:56:43.000
you give them to what time.
Well, I went down there the same

1475
01:56:43.119 --> 01:56:46.600
day that they fired me, turned
in my shirt what have you, and

1476
01:56:46.760 --> 01:56:53.640
said, you know you guys have

at the GP one. Hold on,

agent. They have to have one in

State and file. Listen. What
you do is get their registered agent and

1504
01:59:08.039 --> 01:59:12.680
you serve them for triple the amount. We will call the manager after that.

1505
01:59:12.800 --> 01:59:16.880
But man, you should try this
first. Okay, and see,

1506

01:59:28.680 --> 01:59:31.840
Do you have a computer. Nope, I just have my smartphone.

01:59:33.760 --> 01:59:39.960

secretary. You need to find the registered

1511
01:59:40.039 --> 01:59:44.920
agent for that store or for that
company row, and then you need to

1512
01:59:45.319 --> 01:59:50.439
have them serve. You go online
to make out the small claim against them,

1513
01:59:50.760 --> 01:59:55.479
and if you're owed two hundred,
you sue them for six hundred.

1514
01:59:56.680 --> 02:00:00.920
Okay, now you know what.
Let me just have somebody help you.
