You 11 00:00:34.320 --> 00:00:36.719 know the drill you've been ripped off or taking advantage of. 12 00:00:36.840 --> 00:00:42.000 But I must digress. I'm gonna tell everybody a little story. 13 00:00:43.719 --> 00:00:45.719 There's people out there that hate my stories. 14 00:00:46.960 --> 00:00:48.840 I'm gonna tell you the worst story I've had to 15 00:00:48.880 --> 00:00:52.000 deal with in a very long time. It's been a 16 00:00:52.000 --> 00:00:54.600 hard year, folks. There's probably a lot of people out 17 00:00:54.600 --> 00:00:58.359 here that has listened to this show for upwards of 18 00:00:58.520 --> 00:01:04.000 forty five years. Here in Denver, Colorado. Tom started this show, 19 00:01:04.519 --> 00:01:06.200 in fact, the only show I know of in the 20 00:01:06.239 --> 00:01:10.560 country ever where you literally go after the bad guys. 21 00:01:10.560 --> 00:01:15.079 And I love doing it with him. Susanna and I 22 00:01:15.120 --> 00:01:20.599 got a call January third, this little hard on me, folks. 23 00:01:22.040 --> 00:01:25.280 I'm going to preference it with something though, And I 24 00:01:25.319 --> 00:01:27.400 think I need to do this because I'm not trying 25 00:01:27.439 --> 00:01:31.159 to build some kind of I'm not trying to do 26 00:01:31.239 --> 00:01:34.239 something here that it's not so here's the bottom line 27 00:01:34.239 --> 00:01:43.319 on this. The outcome, Well, you'll hear the outcome. January third, 28 00:01:43.599 --> 00:01:46.640 I get a call from Martino, Tom and Stephanie are 29 00:01:46.640 --> 00:01:52.840 flying back from Hawaii. They get back. Tom calls he's 30 00:01:52.879 --> 00:01:56.480 at the hospital. We were all prepared to go in 31 00:01:56.519 --> 00:01:59.560 on the six, that would be the Monday after New 32 00:01:59.640 --> 00:02:01.760 Year's and all do the show together like we do 33 00:02:01.840 --> 00:02:03.799 every year. We always take two or three weeks off 34 00:02:03.799 --> 00:02:05.359 at the end of the year. That's how we do it. 35 00:02:07.079 --> 00:02:11.879 We get a call from him, absolutely terrifying. He's got 36 00:02:11.919 --> 00:02:13.439 paint tree attic cancer. 37 00:02:14.800 --> 00:02:18.599 How does he know? When they were in Hawaii. 38 00:02:19.439 --> 00:02:23.800 The tumor and his pancreas pushed up against his liver 39 00:02:23.879 --> 00:02:27.719 and cut off bile. He was in jarundice. He was yellow, 40 00:02:27.759 --> 00:02:32.159 His eyes were yellow. He was terrified. His wife was terrified. 41 00:02:32.560 --> 00:02:35.120 They went directly to the hospital. They knew nothing about 42 00:02:35.120 --> 00:02:37.159 the cancer at that point, but what they did know. 43 00:02:38.039 --> 00:02:40.639 What they did know is Tom was yellow. Literally, his 44 00:02:40.759 --> 00:02:43.479 liver was in failure. They got there, they did the 45 00:02:43.560 --> 00:02:47.000 imaging and they figured out what was going on. That 46 00:02:47.159 --> 00:02:50.879 tumor blocked the bile ducts and his liver was shutting down. 47 00:02:51.719 --> 00:02:53.520 They had to go in and put in a stint 48 00:02:53.960 --> 00:02:56.520 to open it back up. This is when we got 49 00:02:56.560 --> 00:03:01.919 the call. Absolutely terrifying. Have known Tommy forever in a day, 50 00:03:02.680 --> 00:03:06.400 almost thirty years. I consider him one of the best 51 00:03:06.439 --> 00:03:10.080 friends I've ever had, and a father and a brother, 52 00:03:10.520 --> 00:03:14.479 And Suzanne can say the exact same thing. It was 53 00:03:14.520 --> 00:03:19.479 the most terrifying news we've ever heard that day. This 54 00:03:19.680 --> 00:03:22.400 is around the third still they had to go in 55 00:03:22.479 --> 00:03:25.080 in put the stint. Tommy headed home, he called us, 56 00:03:25.800 --> 00:03:27.479 and all of a sudden he was back in the 57 00:03:27.479 --> 00:03:33.960 emergency room. This stint created pancreatice pancreatitis, that's right, Mark, 58 00:03:34.280 --> 00:03:37.719 absolutely the most painful thing you can imagine. So not 59 00:03:37.800 --> 00:03:41.080 only did he learn this horrible news, but now he's 60 00:03:41.080 --> 00:03:43.759 back in the er for two or three days. So 61 00:03:43.879 --> 00:03:47.039 I started having to do the show solo constantly. In fact, 62 00:03:47.120 --> 00:03:50.240 you've been listening for the last four months. That's exactly 63 00:03:50.280 --> 00:03:53.039 been what's going on. I have probably done it more 64 00:03:53.080 --> 00:03:56.360 than tom and that is why he's been fighting cancer 65 00:03:56.599 --> 00:03:58.879 and all the things that come along with In fact, 66 00:03:58.919 --> 00:04:01.280 he said something to him when he was in. 67 00:04:01.319 --> 00:04:05.280 The hospital with sepsis. You know, they got rid of 68 00:04:05.280 --> 00:04:09.280 the sepsis. That was a call that was absolutely unbelievable. 69 00:04:10.080 --> 00:04:13.319 We were on air together probably about two. 70 00:04:13.120 --> 00:04:15.319 And a half months ago. I was in studio. He 71 00:04:15.400 --> 00:04:18.600 was at home and he disappeared. He had a text 72 00:04:18.920 --> 00:04:22.519 from the hospital that said, drop everything you're doing. Your 73 00:04:22.560 --> 00:04:26.360 blood results came back. You have sepsis and you need 74 00:04:26.399 --> 00:04:27.360 to get to the er. 75 00:04:27.519 --> 00:04:27.839 Now. 76 00:04:29.439 --> 00:04:33.360 I got that text on air, the most terrifying text 77 00:04:33.439 --> 00:04:35.680 I got from him, and I started getting used to 78 00:04:35.720 --> 00:04:39.839 these texts. He showed up at the hospital. They knocked 79 00:04:39.879 --> 00:04:44.160 him out and they pumped him through with antibiotics, and 80 00:04:44.199 --> 00:04:47.959 for the love of God and thank god, he was okay. 81 00:04:48.319 --> 00:04:49.199 They took care of that. 82 00:04:49.279 --> 00:04:51.279 And you know what Tom said to Susanna and I. 83 00:04:52.240 --> 00:04:54.879 He said, now that that's gone, I can get back 84 00:04:55.800 --> 00:04:59.759 to fighting cancer. Think about that. Think of everything he 85 00:04:59.839 --> 00:05:01.680 is gone through. And I'm not going to sit here 86 00:05:01.959 --> 00:05:05.199 and tell you every single thing like that, but to sepsis, 87 00:05:05.560 --> 00:05:09.360 two bouts a pancreatitis, both times in the hospital for 88 00:05:09.439 --> 00:05:14.319 multiple days, five rounds of chemo every two weeks. When 89 00:05:14.319 --> 00:05:16.839 you heard him on the area, we heard people, Oh, 90 00:05:16.879 --> 00:05:19.680 what's he sniffling for? What's he doing this? What's he's 91 00:05:19.680 --> 00:05:22.000 doing that? He doesn't sound like himself. You know what 92 00:05:22.079 --> 00:05:24.720 he was in himself. He was going through chemo like 93 00:05:24.759 --> 00:05:28.319 a lot of people go through. And unlike a lot 94 00:05:28.319 --> 00:05:31.240 of people, I'll say this, Tom lives and dies for 95 00:05:31.319 --> 00:05:31.759 this show. 96 00:05:33.000 --> 00:05:36.240 This is his life. This is what he loves. 97 00:05:36.439 --> 00:05:39.319 When he is not on talking to you folks, he 98 00:05:39.439 --> 00:05:43.160 is just not happy. Other people like traveling, other people 99 00:05:43.319 --> 00:05:44.560 like doing a lot of things. 100 00:05:44.839 --> 00:05:49.399 Tom loves this. This is Tom. You understand that. I 101 00:05:49.439 --> 00:05:50.600 love working with Tom. 102 00:05:52.519 --> 00:05:55.839 He had what was referred to as the Whipple surgery yesterday. 103 00:05:56.560 --> 00:06:01.959 The Whipple surgery, if you go and if you ever 104 00:06:02.120 --> 00:06:05.000 hear of someone needing it and you google it, it'll 105 00:06:05.000 --> 00:06:08.079 scare the hell out of you. It's basically a three 106 00:06:08.199 --> 00:06:12.399 percent chance of living if you have the whipple after 107 00:06:12.720 --> 00:06:19.560 five years. It is probably the most invasive surgery. You 108 00:06:19.680 --> 00:06:23.279 can imagine a lot of people could no longer produce 109 00:06:23.360 --> 00:06:26.800 insulin after it because you're taking part of your pancreas. 110 00:06:27.160 --> 00:06:29.959 They also take out your gallbladder, They take out a 111 00:06:30.000 --> 00:06:32.639 section of your stomach, depending on how big the tumorous 112 00:06:32.639 --> 00:06:38.600 they're going after. It is the most invasive surgery out there. 113 00:06:39.360 --> 00:06:45.600 Tom went through it yesterday eight hours. Eight hours. We 114 00:06:45.720 --> 00:06:51.199 got a call this morning from Tom. Thank god. The 115 00:06:51.279 --> 00:06:55.920 surgeon came in and told them they eradicated to cancer 116 00:06:56.519 --> 00:07:01.399 and the cancer is now out of his body. Is 117 00:07:01.680 --> 00:07:05.959 that three percent? There is no more cancer in Tom. 118 00:07:06.279 --> 00:07:09.519 The surgeon couldn't believe how well it went. The cancer 119 00:07:09.680 --> 00:07:13.079 did not spread anywhere. They got every bit of it 120 00:07:13.240 --> 00:07:14.360 out of his body. 121 00:07:14.839 --> 00:07:17.920 He's going to be in the ICU for about two days. 122 00:07:18.480 --> 00:07:22.000 That's very normal with this surgery. It's so invasive they 123 00:07:22.040 --> 00:07:24.160 don't move you from there. Then he'll be in the 124 00:07:24.199 --> 00:07:29.639 hospital recooping for probably a week or two. Then after 125 00:07:29.720 --> 00:07:33.120 that he'll head home where his sisters, God bless their souls, 126 00:07:33.319 --> 00:07:36.360 are going to help him recoup throughout the month of May. 127 00:07:36.879 --> 00:07:39.800 Then he's pretty much back on it. It was an 128 00:07:39.879 --> 00:07:44.000 incredible four and a half months, and I appreciate all 129 00:07:44.000 --> 00:07:48.360 the listeners out there asking all the questions, wondering about 130 00:07:48.360 --> 00:07:51.560 what's going on. And you can imagine for numerous reasons, 131 00:07:51.600 --> 00:07:52.959 Tom didn't want to get into it. 132 00:07:53.279 --> 00:07:57.879 When I talked to him this morning, he was ready, 133 00:07:58.240 --> 00:08:01.160 he feels good, sound great, Didney, Susanne? 134 00:08:01.279 --> 00:08:03.279 You really did? He said, he felt really light, like 135 00:08:03.319 --> 00:08:04.839 a weight just was off of him. 136 00:08:04.920 --> 00:08:07.319 Now the epidural. You can call it a miracle, you 137 00:08:07.319 --> 00:08:09.920 can call it whatever. What's really crazy, I'll go back 138 00:08:09.920 --> 00:08:12.879 to that beginning, is if that tumor did not hit 139 00:08:12.879 --> 00:08:16.000 his liver and cut off those bile ducks. Most people 140 00:08:16.000 --> 00:08:19.839 when they find out they have pancreatic cancer, that tumor's 141 00:08:19.879 --> 00:08:21.959 in the middle or at the other end. It never 142 00:08:22.040 --> 00:08:25.360 cuts off the bile ducks. And what happens is the 143 00:08:25.399 --> 00:08:28.519 first time you end up at the doctor because something 144 00:08:28.560 --> 00:08:31.720 doesn't feel right, you're already stage four and it's everywhere 145 00:08:31.759 --> 00:08:34.840 in your entire body. He got so lucky. Called it 146 00:08:34.840 --> 00:08:35.879 a miracle. 147 00:08:37.279 --> 00:08:38.840 Intervention, the fine. 148 00:08:38.600 --> 00:08:41.080 Intervention, call it whatever you want to call it. It 149 00:08:41.200 --> 00:08:44.600 is absolutely the most wonderful news we got. And I 150 00:08:44.639 --> 00:08:47.200 didn't I did not do this to build up to 151 00:08:47.320 --> 00:08:49.519 anything else. I didn't know how I was going to 152 00:08:49.559 --> 00:08:52.320 tell this story for the first time in a while. 153 00:08:52.679 --> 00:08:55.240 Susanne and I were in tears this morning of joy. 154 00:08:56.440 --> 00:08:56.720 Yep. 155 00:08:57.320 --> 00:08:59.720 The other day you came back from a run in 156 00:08:59.720 --> 00:09:02.679 skin the hell out of me. She was just crying 157 00:09:02.720 --> 00:09:05.440 about him going into surgery the next day. It was 158 00:09:05.519 --> 00:09:07.600 so bad, I thought maybe one of our kids was 159 00:09:07.600 --> 00:09:10.120 in an accident. You just had a breakdown. 160 00:09:10.320 --> 00:09:14.360 Oh yeah, you know what, Mark Tommy is our Superman. Yeah. Yes, 161 00:09:14.759 --> 00:09:16.879 And he's got a lot of prayer warriors out there 162 00:09:16.919 --> 00:09:20.000 who've been praying for him, and he's just a superman. 163 00:09:20.039 --> 00:09:20.960 What else can you say? 164 00:09:21.039 --> 00:09:24.080 And thank you, Frank Durant for all the prayers, and 165 00:09:25.080 --> 00:09:26.879 one last thing I'm going to say, and that we're 166 00:09:26.879 --> 00:09:28.519 going to take a break and come back and do 167 00:09:28.639 --> 00:09:31.480 this show. I was here on a Friday when he 168 00:09:31.600 --> 00:09:36.600 texted me that about sepsis. If you look up sepsis, man, 169 00:09:36.639 --> 00:09:39.720 I don't think there's a worse infection. Basically, your body 170 00:09:39.799 --> 00:09:44.120 starts fighting itself, it thinks it's in a really bad shape, 171 00:09:44.480 --> 00:09:47.480 and basically starts turning on you and starts to eat 172 00:09:47.519 --> 00:09:52.440 you alive. And I was on for about fifteen minutes 173 00:09:52.559 --> 00:09:57.759 when he disappeared on that I ended up leaving after 174 00:09:57.799 --> 00:09:59.639 the show, of course. And it was on a Friday, 175 00:09:59.639 --> 00:10:01.879 A remember where Jeff was here and I remember Kevin, 176 00:10:02.399 --> 00:10:04.840 and I was so on autopilot because I was so 177 00:10:05.039 --> 00:10:06.360 terrified for my friend. 178 00:10:06.960 --> 00:10:09.600 I don't even remember doing the show that day. I 179 00:10:09.679 --> 00:10:12.840 watched the show over the weekend and I was just amazed. 180 00:10:12.840 --> 00:10:16.600 I couldn't remember one call and I ended up Where 181 00:10:16.600 --> 00:10:17.879 did I drive to Susan? 182 00:10:18.279 --> 00:10:18.679 All right? 183 00:10:18.720 --> 00:10:21.600 To urgent Karen Kaiser. I left here. 184 00:10:21.440 --> 00:10:24.360 Thought I was having a freaking heart attack. I am 185 00:10:24.360 --> 00:10:28.639 not kidding, and I basically had an anxiety breakdown, stress 186 00:10:28.720 --> 00:10:31.279 beyond anything.

You grew 239 00:13:16.360 --> 00:13:17.480 up in New York, right. 240 00:13:17.759 --> 00:13:20.120 I grew up in Pennsylvania where in oh, that's right, 241 00:13:20.159 --> 00:13:21.240 Pittsburgh Projects. 242 00:13:21.240 --> 00:13:23.120 It was like New York.

Yeah. 246 00:13:32.840 --> 00:13:36.480 I was really kind of shaken and I had a 247 00:13:36.559 --> 00:13:38.399 rush of emotion listening to that story. 248 00:13:38.639 --> 00:13:40.320 Yeah.

But Tom 256 00:13:55.440 --> 00:13:58.159 is that three percent?

They didn't even help me. I ended up 271 00:14:39.080 --> 00:14:42.200 walking out like a half an hour after I've been 272 00:14:42.200 --> 00:14:42.639 in there. 273 00:14:43.240 --> 00:14:45.519 What were you put in for?

And there was 293 00:15:45.879 --> 00:15:50.200 trash everywhere and I'm sorry that there is a tampon 294 00:15:50.360 --> 00:15:53.440 and definitely around And what would you say that? 295 00:15:53.440 --> 00:15:54.639 Though, I need to understand this. 296 00:15:54.799 --> 00:15:57.480 You walk into a facility like that, I would assume 297 00:15:57.519 --> 00:16:00.519 there's there's probably a desk, and then there's probably an 298 00:16:00.559 --> 00:16:02.720 area you got to go through a locked door. So 299 00:16:02.919 --> 00:16:05.200 where are you referring to? Are you referring to? The 300 00:16:05.240 --> 00:16:08.440 bathroom was a mess?

I mean it's I should 352 00:18:19.240 --> 00:18:23.519 be closed down. I mean the staff was horrible. Now, 353 00:18:24.000 --> 00:18:27.079 it was just the whole place it needed to be cleaned, 354 00:18:27.160 --> 00:18:30.640 and I mean the staff was really rude. 355 00:18:30.920 --> 00:18:32.720 Wow, I don't know, uh, fun people. 356 00:18:32.960 --> 00:18:36.480 And I'm not the only one that walcked out. 357 00:18:36.640 --> 00:18:40.519 So I can't even imagine this bliss. She paints a 358 00:18:40.559 --> 00:18:43.440 picture of a hell hole. I have a suggestion for jams. 359 00:18:43.480 --> 00:18:46.240 That's what it was. That's what it was. And I thought, oh, 360 00:18:46.279 --> 00:18:48.079 I'm going to go in here and get some rest, 361 00:18:48.559 --> 00:18:51.559 you know, and then get some some medication to come 362 00:18:51.599 --> 00:18:52.240 back to the stable. 363 00:18:52.279 --> 00:18:54.559 Hey, Fannis, have you been on and abuse before? 364 00:18:56.680 --> 00:18:56.799 No? 365 00:18:56.920 --> 00:18:57.480 I have not. 366 00:18:57.640 --> 00:19:01.440 It is we had a neighbor's passed away. Actually his 367 00:19:01.519 --> 00:19:05.279 name was Archie, and he was on antibuse for a while. 368 00:19:05.319 --> 00:19:07.480 This guy is what I refer to. I don't know 369 00:19:08.880 --> 00:19:11.680 how you treat alcohol, but he was what i'd refer 370 00:19:11.759 --> 00:19:15.640 to as a binger. He would literally drink for Suzanne. 371 00:19:15.680 --> 00:19:18.200 I mean I remember him being up three days before 372 00:19:18.720 --> 00:19:21.519 it was bad Mark, and he would drink the entire time. 373 00:19:21.599 --> 00:19:23.960 He was like Superman. And when I say that, I 374 00:19:24.039 --> 00:19:27.200 mean it. It's like if I drank even one one 375 00:19:27.480 --> 00:19:30.119 twentieth of what he drank, I'd be sleeping for days. 376 00:19:30.200 --> 00:19:33.079 But this guy would drink and drink and drink, and 377 00:19:33.119 --> 00:19:35.200 then he wouldn't drink for about two weeks and he'd 378 00:19:35.240 --> 00:19:37.759 go back. He would binge. He wasn't an everyday drinker, 379 00:19:38.039 --> 00:19:40.400 but when he did drink, my god, he couldn't stop. 380 00:19:40.880 --> 00:19:43.160 In fact, he got so bad one time, Janie. And 381 00:19:43.200 --> 00:19:46.599 I'm saying this for multiple reasons. But his little kid, 382 00:19:46.640 --> 00:19:49.440 how old were his kids at that time, Suzanne. 383 00:19:49.200 --> 00:19:53.400 Oh, elementary, like under ten or eleven years old. Yeah. 384 00:19:53.440 --> 00:19:55.519 So I'm sitting at the I'm getting ready to leave 385 00:19:55.559 --> 00:19:58.680 for my computer store. This is in the nineties, and 386 00:19:58.960 --> 00:20:01.519 this little kid and he had five six years old, 387 00:20:01.559 --> 00:20:03.880 to knock it on my door and he's like, can 388 00:20:03.920 --> 00:20:07.480 you help me get ready for school? My dad won't 389 00:20:07.519 --> 00:20:11.200 wake up, and my mom already left, and I'm like, jeez, 390 00:20:11.240 --> 00:20:12.720 I already knew Archie was a mess. 391 00:20:12.720 --> 00:20:14.279 So I go over to the house, I helped the 392 00:20:14.359 --> 00:20:15.119 kid get ready. 393 00:20:15.160 --> 00:20:18.319 I look in and sure enough, Archie's just passed out 394 00:20:18.400 --> 00:20:21.119 drunk after you know, two or three days of drink. 395 00:20:21.160 --> 00:20:23.400 And so I helped the little kid and his sister 396 00:20:23.480 --> 00:20:25.640 get ready for school, brought him out to the bus, 397 00:20:25.680 --> 00:20:26.400 got him on there. 398 00:20:26.920 --> 00:20:27.680 And then about a. 399 00:20:27.599 --> 00:20:32.359 Week after that, Janie, this guy Archie got fired from 400 00:20:32.440 --> 00:20:34.599 his job. And I hope a lot of people are 401 00:20:34.640 --> 00:20:37.319 listening to this story because the man lost his job, 402 00:20:37.599 --> 00:20:40.039 and it was a good job with a company called 403 00:20:40.799 --> 00:20:43.960 It was a big computer company, Cisco. He worked for 404 00:20:44.039 --> 00:20:49.160 Cisco for many years. So Archie gets fired from his job, 405 00:20:49.240 --> 00:20:51.519 had no job for about six months. By the way, 406 00:20:51.559 --> 00:20:54.880 his wife was an attorney and how they even stayed 407 00:20:54.920 --> 00:20:57.079 married at this point of time, I have no idea 408 00:20:57.920 --> 00:21:02.839 he got put on antibuse. My understanding of an abuse 409 00:21:03.640 --> 00:21:06.640 is you take it and if you drink, you get 410 00:21:06.720 --> 00:21:10.000 a splitting headache and you're sick as hell, so you 411 00:21:10.200 --> 00:21:13.319 rather not drink. I mean, really, that's how crazy it is. 412 00:21:14.200 --> 00:21:20.119 He started drinking through an abuse. He would literally still 413 00:21:20.240 --> 00:21:23.799 drink through an abuse, and eventually I don't think the 414 00:21:23.839 --> 00:21:26.680 an abuse had any effect on him. He rather be 415 00:21:26.799 --> 00:21:29.480 drunk with a splitting headache and sick as a dog 416 00:21:30.359 --> 00:21:33.680 than not drink alcohol, which told me a lot back 417 00:21:33.680 --> 00:21:37.240 in my early twenties about alcohol. His wife, and this 418 00:21:37.319 --> 00:21:41.039 is the last part of the story, ended up suing Cisco. 419 00:21:42.240 --> 00:21:45.759 You know why they fired him because he was an alcoholic. 420 00:21:47.160 --> 00:21:50.160 That's a disease. She won. 421 00:21:51.559 --> 00:21:54.480 He got not only reinstated at his job, he got 422 00:21:54.519 --> 00:21:57.319 back pay for six months to a year whatever time 423 00:21:57.359 --> 00:21:59.759 he was gone. Dmitri, I'm with you. When I was 424 00:21:59.799 --> 00:22:03.279 here this story, I couldn't believe it. So he was 425 00:22:03.359 --> 00:22:05.920 back for less than two or three weeks, and they 426 00:22:05.960 --> 00:22:08.400 fired him for something else. In fact, they didn't even 427 00:22:08.480 --> 00:22:11.000 tell them. They just fired him for cause. So an 428 00:22:11.039 --> 00:22:15.559 employer out there listening. If you fire someone because they're 429 00:22:15.599 --> 00:22:18.599 an alcoholic, you better watch it because that is a 430 00:22:18.640 --> 00:22:23.680 disease and you can't file fire someone for having a disease. 431 00:22:24.079 --> 00:22:27.200 I know, I know it sounds crazy, Jannis. I'm not 432 00:22:27.279 --> 00:22:29.160 sure what else we can do besides Warren. 433 00:22:29.359 --> 00:22:31.640 I think I have a suggestion for Janice. Go ahead, 434 00:22:31.640 --> 00:22:33.839 bo Jannie. In the future. 435 00:22:34.359 --> 00:22:37.319 You I lived up in greatly for a while, you 436 00:22:37.400 --> 00:22:41.559 might consider going to the Well County Human Services. They're 437 00:22:41.599 --> 00:22:44.799 actually run by the government and they can provide the 438 00:22:44.880 --> 00:22:48.039 assistance that I think you need, and I think it's. 439 00:22:47.920 --> 00:22:51.400 A lot better. Are you away from that ax now, Janie. 440 00:22:52.400 --> 00:22:53.960 Yes, I am far away. 441 00:22:54.519 --> 00:22:57.720 Yeah that's good. I hope you stay away. A lot 442 00:22:57.759 --> 00:22:59.720 of times those things don't work out and you end 443 00:22:59.799 --> 00:23:02.000 up going back over and over and over again. 444 00:23:03.440 --> 00:23:06.559 Oh no, I got family up here that's really very 445 00:23:06.599 --> 00:23:09.359 supportive with me, so that helps a lot. 446 00:23:09.559 --> 00:23:13.160 Yeah, watch that boost go ahead, Jis. 447 00:23:13.519 --> 00:23:15.440 I'm so sorry too, tom So. 448 00:23:16.559 --> 00:23:19.680 Yeah, it's crazy morning, but it's good though.

She's prettier in Kamla 565 00:28:57.960 --> 00:29:01.279 Anderson been running around on the streets for like thirteen years. 566 00:29:01.279 --> 00:29:04.599 It's shocking. But the thing that I'm so upset about really, 567 00:29:04.680 --> 00:29:07.079 and it just picked the light bulb. Hey, man, if 568 00:29:07.119 --> 00:29:08.720 I can get in. And it kind of has to 569 00:29:08.759 --> 00:29:12.039 do with Janie is I did write the governor about 570 00:29:12.079 --> 00:29:12.799 this situation. 571 00:29:13.039 --> 00:29:15.200 You mean this place in long mind or where was it? 572 00:29:15.680 --> 00:29:15.880 No? 573 00:29:15.880 --> 00:29:18.279 No, no, no, kind of Janie was the one that 574 00:29:18.319 --> 00:29:21.119 triggered it, because she's my best friend, you know. And 575 00:29:21.160 --> 00:29:24.240 I got to say, hats off to the Thornton Police 576 00:29:24.720 --> 00:29:27.160 because whenever she would have a campsite, I would do 577 00:29:27.240 --> 00:29:30.799 a GPS location where she would be when I'd go 578 00:29:30.839 --> 00:29:33.200 to visit her once twice a month, because you know, 579 00:29:33.240 --> 00:29:37.319 they're obscured places. And she went for suicide and the 580 00:29:37.359 --> 00:29:40.000 Thornton Police were there in less than five minutes starting 581 00:29:41.200 --> 00:29:43.279 and they saved her life. So my hat's off to 582 00:29:43.319 --> 00:29:46.839 the Thornton Police. Point is, I wrote the governor real quick, 583 00:29:47.119 --> 00:29:48.839 and I wish maybe you guys would pick it up 584 00:29:48.880 --> 00:29:52.240 because Janice is so beautiful.

I mean, I can't imagine they 646 00:32:31.920 --> 00:32:34.720 wouldn't have to go through that. And honestly, I thought 647 00:32:34.759 --> 00:32:36.759 there was something like that in Colorado. 648 00:32:36.799 --> 00:32:37.559 Do you guys know? 649 00:32:37.960 --> 00:32:40.119 I thought, if you're nuts, they can lock you up 650 00:32:40.160 --> 00:32:41.400 on a hold for three days. 651 00:32:41.440 --> 00:32:43.480 I thought it was seventy two hours. Or yeah, it's 652 00:32:43.519 --> 00:32:45.839 it seventy two hours. I don't know what the Baker 653 00:32:45.880 --> 00:32:48.160 Act is or whatever he was.

Why? 747 00:37:33.639 --> 00:37:35.960 But you asked me about the one that that I 748 00:37:36.000 --> 00:37:38.920 didn't go to trial yet, the one in California, the 749 00:37:38.920 --> 00:37:39.960 one in Los Angeles. 750 00:37:40.000 --> 00:37:42.400 That's crazy. Let's do this up. Listen to this though, 751 00:37:43.559 --> 00:37:48.679 if I recall a cop shot a kid. Is that right? 752 00:37:48.840 --> 00:37:52.199 Do I have the basics or no? You got the basics? Okay, 753 00:37:52.239 --> 00:37:53.960 hold on, We're going to dig into that in a segment. 754 00:37:54.000 --> 00:37:56.760 But that's an up and coming trial. That's true. 755 00:37:56.920 --> 00:37:59.480 And you're going after the city, I assume or the police? 756 00:37:59.480 --> 00:38:00.320 Who do you? 757 00:38:00.599 --> 00:38:04.559 Who are you targeting? It was actually off duty? Got it? 758 00:38:04.920 --> 00:38:07.599 Los Angeles police? Wow? 759 00:38:07.920 --> 00:38:11.440 They were working for a third party security company. 760 00:38:11.519 --> 00:38:12.760 Yeah, they do that all the time. 761 00:38:13.000 --> 00:38:15.840 So because they were off duty or because they were 762 00:38:15.880 --> 00:38:21.280 kind of moonlighting, the city is really not involved, nor 763 00:38:21.559 --> 00:38:23.760 the County of Los Angeles. Because you got the city 764 00:38:23.760 --> 00:38:26.480 of Los Angeles, you got the County of Los Angeles, 765 00:38:26.719 --> 00:38:28.400 neither of which are going to be involved. 766 00:38:28.559 --> 00:38:30.480 Got it. That's interesting. 767 00:38:30.559 --> 00:38:34.000 I didn't realize if if an officer was off duty, 768 00:38:35.559 --> 00:38:38.960 how about if they weren't working for somebody else? How 769 00:38:38.960 --> 00:38:41.159 does that work? In other words, we all hear about 770 00:38:41.159 --> 00:38:44.039 these police shootings, But let's say one goes down where 771 00:38:44.519 --> 00:38:47.360 the cop is at home and shoot someone in the 772 00:38:47.400 --> 00:38:49.920 back or something like that. You're saying you still couldn't 773 00:38:49.960 --> 00:38:52.800 go after the city if they were off duty. Forget 774 00:38:52.880 --> 00:38:56.000 that they're working for somebody else security. But They're just 775 00:38:56.280 --> 00:38:59.440 they're in their everyday life at a grocery store and 776 00:38:59.480 --> 00:39:02.280 they think so going down and they make a horrible 777 00:39:02.320 --> 00:39:03.960 mistake and someone ends up dead. 778 00:39:04.079 --> 00:39:07.360 I guess the question is are they operating in the. 779 00:39:07.320 --> 00:39:08.880 Scope of their duties? 780 00:39:09.079 --> 00:39:12.599 Okay, but in my case, they were were dependent contractors. 781 00:39:12.639 --> 00:39:15.400 Yeah, one hundred percent. So they you know, was it 782 00:39:15.480 --> 00:39:16.280 security at a. 783 00:39:16.239 --> 00:39:18.079 Bar or something or a nightclub? 784 00:39:18.280 --> 00:39:24.159 No, it was actually Metro Transit. They were working the subway. 785 00:39:24.400 --> 00:39:26.440 So aren't they still working for the city. 786 00:39:26.480 --> 00:39:31.679 Then they are working for the third party company because 787 00:39:31.719 --> 00:39:32.960 they are not on duty. 788 00:39:33.320 --> 00:39:35.679 I well, I'm saying, but it's still I thought. 789 00:39:35.760 --> 00:39:39.400 I think of RTD the like if RTD in Colorado 790 00:39:39.920 --> 00:39:42.440 hired a police officer to do security at one of 791 00:39:42.480 --> 00:39:46.079 the train stations, I would assume they're getting hired by 792 00:39:46.079 --> 00:39:47.480 the government. That's RTD. 793 00:39:47.639 --> 00:39:51.360 It's a pseudo, right, And so in Los Angeles there 794 00:39:51.519 --> 00:39:57.039 is Metro Police got it right that our employees got it, 795 00:39:57.280 --> 00:40:00.480 and then they hired and they hired in outside firm 796 00:40:00.559 --> 00:40:05.199 for security. About sixty of their security is done by 797 00:40:05.280 --> 00:40:06.920 an outside firm, actually. 798 00:40:06.679 --> 00:40:09.360 A couple of them. I got it. Hey, Jim, what's 799 00:40:09.400 --> 00:40:09.840 going on? 800 00:40:09.920 --> 00:40:12.960 What is this follow up gives me some insight on 801 00:40:13.000 --> 00:40:15.280 what the original issue was with the easement. 802 00:40:19.559 --> 00:40:20.840 This is Jim am I on Mark. 803 00:40:20.960 --> 00:40:24.400 Yeah, you're on Jim. Give us explain what happened with 804 00:40:24.480 --> 00:40:24.960 the easement. 805 00:40:25.920 --> 00:40:28.320 Well, there there is. 806 00:40:29.880 --> 00:40:33.280 There's a private dirt road in the mountains, and we 807 00:40:33.320 --> 00:40:37.079 own property that abusts this private road, and the people 808 00:40:37.119 --> 00:40:39.760 that are at the end of the road have asked 809 00:40:40.440 --> 00:40:45.519 all the other owners who have this property has an 810 00:40:45.639 --> 00:40:49.800 entrance on that private road to sign an easement. Even 811 00:40:49.800 --> 00:40:54.880 though there's been a just historically an informal easement, they're 812 00:40:54.920 --> 00:40:57.320 asking for an easeman hoverybody to sign up for it. 813 00:40:58.519 --> 00:41:01.039 I did not get a letter on our property because 814 00:41:01.159 --> 00:41:05.599 we do not have the driveway that empties into that road, 815 00:41:05.719 --> 00:41:10.239 but our property of busted. So I've been talking to 816 00:41:10.320 --> 00:41:17.159 some of the neighbors and they had concerns about whether 817 00:41:17.280 --> 00:41:21.440 they're legally obligated to sign this. When I read this easement, 818 00:41:21.480 --> 00:41:25.119 it looks like one of the paragraphs is if if 819 00:41:25.480 --> 00:41:29.320 if it isn't done, if they don't sign voluntarily, they'll 820 00:41:29.360 --> 00:41:31.599 go before judge. And it looks like they can ask 821 00:41:31.679 --> 00:41:35.159 for legal and court costs if it's granted. 822 00:41:36.519 --> 00:41:38.480 What did you guys end up doing. Did you end 823 00:41:38.559 --> 00:41:41.119 up signing it? I know I got Brad O'Brien in here. 824 00:41:41.159 --> 00:41:43.280 Did you guys retain him? 825 00:41:43.800 --> 00:41:46.800 No, nobody has signed it yet. We're just trying to 826 00:41:46.840 --> 00:41:52.840 get a better understanding of what it is. They're asking 827 00:41:52.960 --> 00:41:55.920 for a twenty foot evement ten feet from the center 828 00:41:55.960 --> 00:41:59.440 of the centerline of the road. This road is only 829 00:41:59.519 --> 00:42:03.079 like maybe twelve fifteen feet at the widest. 830 00:42:03.360 --> 00:42:05.079 And what are they get to Why are they asking 831 00:42:05.159 --> 00:42:07.039 for the ease? Man, I'm sorry, I probably over I 832 00:42:07.320 --> 00:42:08.920 probably glanced by it when you said it. 833 00:42:09.519 --> 00:42:13.159 Well, they're according to their letter. I don't know if 834 00:42:13.159 --> 00:42:15.760 you had a chance to open any of that BBS 835 00:42:15.760 --> 00:42:20.840 that I sent you. According to their letter, they inherited 836 00:42:20.880 --> 00:42:25.719 this property about six years ago, and the title company 837 00:42:25.719 --> 00:42:28.239 and their attorney told them that it would be in 838 00:42:28.280 --> 00:42:31.519 this type of situation. Is normal for old mountain properties 839 00:42:31.840 --> 00:42:35.599 to ask for an easement so that they had legal 840 00:42:35.639 --> 00:42:39.480 access and perpetuity. Now they've had access for sixty four 841 00:42:39.599 --> 00:42:41.199 years and it's never been an issue. 842 00:42:41.719 --> 00:42:44.039 So why did it become an issue with them? What 843 00:42:44.400 --> 00:42:46.159 is your take on that they just want to make 844 00:42:46.199 --> 00:42:49.639 sure Yeah, I think or do you think it's for 845 00:42:49.760 --> 00:42:52.639 nefarious reasons. Do you think there's something else going on? 846 00:42:53.599 --> 00:42:55.599 No, I don't think so. I think they just talked 847 00:42:55.599 --> 00:42:58.199 to when attorney that said, hey, get it done. You 848 00:42:58.199 --> 00:43:00.519 should ask these now. 849 00:43:00.480 --> 00:43:02.480 Hey, Brad, what do you make of this? I mean, 850 00:43:03.400 --> 00:43:05.679 have you actually looked over these documents? 851 00:43:05.679 --> 00:43:08.840 Brad? Or is this the first time you're hearing about this? 852 00:43:10.039 --> 00:43:12.679 I don't know who your collar is, So I don't 853 00:43:12.719 --> 00:43:14.880 recognize that this that I spoke about this previously? 854 00:43:15.400 --> 00:43:16.280 Did I? 855 00:43:16.280 --> 00:43:17.039 I don't think so. 856 00:43:17.519 --> 00:43:20.119 Jim, You've never talked to Brad before, Right, Kelly, you 857 00:43:20.280 --> 00:43:21.639 just decided to get Brad on. 858 00:43:22.559 --> 00:43:25.039 I was there for the call mark and Brian was 859 00:43:25.039 --> 00:43:26.480 not involved in that conversation. 860 00:43:27.360 --> 00:43:31.159 You mean Brad? Yeah, Brad? Okay, So what are your 861 00:43:31.239 --> 00:43:33.360 questions for our attorney? Jim? 862 00:43:33.480 --> 00:43:37.639 How about this? Maybe we send over Would you mind 863 00:43:37.719 --> 00:43:40.039 eyeballing a Brad what they want him to sign? 864 00:43:43.119 --> 00:43:43.519 You know what? 865 00:43:43.599 --> 00:43:46.599 These easements into mountain properties? 866 00:43:46.719 --> 00:43:46.920 Yeah? 867 00:43:47.239 --> 00:43:50.280 Very complicated, very nuanced. There's a lot that goes into them. 868 00:43:50.320 --> 00:43:52.320 Oh, you're not just I get it. It's not like 869 00:43:52.519 --> 00:43:54.519 just dieballing for something in a lease. 870 00:43:54.840 --> 00:43:56.519 This is one of the most complicated issues that I 871 00:43:56.559 --> 00:43:59.880 deal with, is Roadie's I mean there's a half different, 872 00:44:00.199 --> 00:44:02.599 half dozen different ways to get an easement, you know, 873 00:44:02.679 --> 00:44:06.920 whether expressly through contract or an instrument like amusement that's recorded, 874 00:44:07.360 --> 00:44:09.440 or by law. There's several different ways to get it 875 00:44:09.599 --> 00:44:11.639 an easement by law. 876 00:44:11.760 --> 00:44:14.119 What I'm not getting is they're saying, here, you guys 877 00:44:14.159 --> 00:44:16.639 all need to sign this according to the caller gym, 878 00:44:17.480 --> 00:44:19.199 and if you don't, we're going to take you to 879 00:44:19.280 --> 00:44:21.239 courd on it. If we win, we're going to charge 880 00:44:21.239 --> 00:44:24.360 you attorney's fees. Is that h Does that make any sense? 881 00:44:24.480 --> 00:44:26.639 Or is that somewhat normal? Brad when it comes to 882 00:44:26.679 --> 00:44:27.719 these mountain easements? 883 00:44:28.239 --> 00:44:29.039 This is typical. 884 00:44:29.199 --> 00:44:31.360 Uh, there's a lot of there's a lot of dirt 885 00:44:31.440 --> 00:44:33.840 roads that have houses on them that don't have any 886 00:44:33.880 --> 00:44:38.280 that are not papered over with a recorded easement agreement. 887 00:44:39.039 --> 00:44:41.840 And is uh it's practical to get all the people 888 00:44:41.840 --> 00:44:45.280 who are using to sign something which is a mutual 889 00:44:45.719 --> 00:44:49.199 access easement, and that's an opportunity for to put it 890 00:44:49.239 --> 00:44:52.639 also in that agreement some of other convenancela maintenance. You know, 891 00:44:52.679 --> 00:44:55.480 who's going to share in the costs of. 892 00:44:54.719 --> 00:44:56.199 Of snow plow anything? 893 00:44:56.480 --> 00:44:58.920 Yeah, putting down more dirt dirt or more gravel from 894 00:44:58.920 --> 00:45:00.599 time to time rating and that. 895 00:45:00.719 --> 00:45:00.920 Yeah. 896 00:45:01.199 --> 00:45:06.239 Yeah, so these agreements can be uh combined easement agreement 897 00:45:06.280 --> 00:45:08.760 and property and maintenance agree him. 898 00:45:08.760 --> 00:45:12.400 What is the reluctance of you and the other neighbors 899 00:45:12.400 --> 00:45:15.440 of actually entering into this or you're just simply wanting 900 00:45:15.480 --> 00:45:16.199 advice on it? 901 00:45:17.320 --> 00:45:21.159 Well, Uh, I think I haven't talked to all the neighbors, 902 00:45:21.159 --> 00:45:24.440 but a couple of them just it's been this way 903 00:45:24.480 --> 00:45:28.119 for sixty four years and they don't understand why, Uh, 904 00:45:28.320 --> 00:45:31.199 it needs to be formalized. The other concern they have 905 00:45:31.480 --> 00:45:35.480 is this twenty foot wide easement and in our instance, 906 00:45:35.559 --> 00:45:38.440 we were we are not being asked to sign this 907 00:45:38.559 --> 00:45:42.599 easement agreement because we do not have the entrance to 908 00:45:42.639 --> 00:45:45.039 our property does not come off of that private road, 909 00:45:45.440 --> 00:45:51.159 but one the back the back edge of our property 910 00:45:51.199 --> 00:45:54.599 about the road to My concern is if they're not 911 00:45:54.760 --> 00:45:59.519 asking us for to sign this eisement, would this easement 912 00:45:59.519 --> 00:46:03.679 apply to us they're not asking us to sign it? 913 00:46:04.039 --> 00:46:07.039 And then the other question I have is if it's. 914 00:46:06.920 --> 00:46:09.800 Well, if it's an easement, hold on Jim, if it's 915 00:46:09.840 --> 00:46:12.199 in Brad, please correct me if I'm wrong, But if 916 00:46:12.199 --> 00:46:14.519 the easement's put in and you're at the very end 917 00:46:14.559 --> 00:46:16.440 and you have nothing to do with it, but you're 918 00:46:16.480 --> 00:46:20.159 still using that road. Well, yeah, it definitely would affect 919 00:46:20.199 --> 00:46:23.800 you because now it's an easeman. I mean, I guess 920 00:46:23.840 --> 00:46:25.880 what I'm saying is it might not affect you as 921 00:46:25.920 --> 00:46:26.800 far as cost. 922 00:46:27.440 --> 00:46:28.800 What exactly is your question? 923 00:46:29.079 --> 00:46:33.000 I mean, it would affect you just because there's an 924 00:46:33.000 --> 00:46:34.000 easement there now. 925 00:46:35.320 --> 00:46:39.079 Well, one of the clauses in the easement is the 926 00:46:39.599 --> 00:46:40.599 size of the easement. 927 00:46:40.960 --> 00:46:43.360 Yeah, so the road. 928 00:46:43.199 --> 00:46:45.760 Right now is like it's a narrow their road twelve 929 00:46:45.840 --> 00:46:49.760 fourteen t Ye. They're asking for a twenty foot easement 930 00:46:50.199 --> 00:46:52.679 ten s from e the side of the center line 931 00:46:53.199 --> 00:46:56.840 on our properties ten see from the center line of 932 00:46:56.880 --> 00:47:00.760 the road. There might be some free within that ten 933 00:47:00.880 --> 00:47:04.519 seas uh ten foot easements from the center line. My 934 00:47:04.760 --> 00:47:08.440 question is, can they cut threes down of my property 935 00:47:08.480 --> 00:47:09.320 if it's in the easement? 936 00:47:09.639 --> 00:47:12.320 Hey, Brad, Typically on an easement like this, I mean, 937 00:47:12.360 --> 00:47:14.760 would they cut the trees down or only if needed 938 00:47:14.800 --> 00:47:15.519 in the future. 939 00:47:16.480 --> 00:47:19.880 Well, normally in these situations where you've got an existing 940 00:47:20.360 --> 00:47:24.039 that people are using, uh and and these agreement is 941 00:47:24.079 --> 00:47:26.239 done after the fact. It basically says we're going to 942 00:47:26.679 --> 00:47:28.639 the Eastern is going to be on the existing road 943 00:47:29.239 --> 00:47:33.320 as currently used, and ideally you'd get a certain a 944 00:47:33.320 --> 00:47:36.199 surveyor to actually draw that out, and so there would 945 00:47:36.239 --> 00:47:39.480 be no need to cut down trees because it's already 946 00:47:39.480 --> 00:47:39.800 in use. 947 00:47:40.000 --> 00:47:42.440 Yeah, it's already there.

I mean, Brad, how 976 00:49:09.880 --> 00:49:11.199 many hours to look over. 977 00:49:11.079 --> 00:49:12.360 Something like that? Do you think? 978 00:49:12.559 --> 00:49:14.639 And really, if they're going to take them to court, 979 00:49:15.239 --> 00:49:18.280 and pretty much that would be eminent domain. If they 980 00:49:18.320 --> 00:49:20.360 take them to court. 981 00:49:21.559 --> 00:49:22.920 I'm in a domain is a different thing. 982 00:49:23.320 --> 00:49:25.159 No, But what I'm saying is if they take them 983 00:49:25.159 --> 00:49:26.760 to court in front of a judge because none of 984 00:49:26.840 --> 00:49:29.840 them want to sign it, I mean, eventually, if they 985 00:49:29.920 --> 00:49:32.599 get it, if the county actually gets it or the 986 00:49:32.639 --> 00:49:35.840 city gets it or whatever, if they actually get the property, 987 00:49:35.840 --> 00:49:38.159 wouldn't that that's not through eminent domain? 988 00:49:39.760 --> 00:49:44.400 Well, there's no okay, there's a statute in Colorado to 989 00:49:44.440 --> 00:49:47.400 turn private roads into public roads. But that's that's not 990 00:49:47.559 --> 00:49:50.280 that's not what we're talking about here. Okay, they're talking 991 00:49:50.280 --> 00:49:52.079 about doing an eis an agreement, which makes a whole 992 00:49:52.119 --> 00:49:55.960 lot of sense. If anybody in the twelve homeowners wants 993 00:49:55.960 --> 00:49:58.519 to refinance and get a new mortgage, that ortgage leaders 994 00:49:58.559 --> 00:50:02.000 probably can require document legal access to the property. Yeah, 995 00:50:02.239 --> 00:50:03.920 something that everybody needs. 996 00:50:03.840 --> 00:50:06.159 Or else shelby, Yeah, because they could say, hey, if 997 00:50:06.159 --> 00:50:07.960 these people cut you off, you can't even get to 998 00:50:08.000 --> 00:50:08.519 your house. 999 00:50:09.559 --> 00:50:09.800 Yeah. 1000 00:50:09.920 --> 00:50:13.000 Yeah, So these are this is a complicated issue. You 1001 00:50:13.039 --> 00:50:15.960 have to have surveys, get to really look at the 1002 00:50:16.000 --> 00:50:18.280 sixteen years of history that's locate. 1003 00:50:18.599 --> 00:50:21.920 But typically they would pay for all of these these costs, right, 1004 00:50:21.960 --> 00:50:23.760 I'm not talking about if they want to hire an 1005 00:50:23.800 --> 00:50:27.480 attorney to look over everything, but you know the county 1006 00:50:27.480 --> 00:50:28.599 would be paying for all this. 1007 00:50:29.760 --> 00:50:32.400 Well, I don't think they're talking at a public road here. 1008 00:50:32.519 --> 00:50:36.400 Right right road and the end of road owners have 1009 00:50:36.440 --> 00:50:38.519 already had the road survey. 1010 00:50:38.679 --> 00:50:41.559 Got it, So you really wouldn't have any cost. 1011 00:50:43.400 --> 00:50:47.679 Well other than retaining an attorney to review this before 1012 00:50:47.719 --> 00:50:48.679 anybody signs it. 1013 00:50:48.880 --> 00:50:50.119 Yeah. 1014 00:50:50.239 --> 00:50:52.079 Well, I mean how many hours. Do you think that 1015 00:50:52.119 --> 00:50:53.800 would be, Brad? I mean, who knows. I don't know 1016 00:50:53.800 --> 00:50:56.039 how big disagreement is or what's involved in. 1017 00:50:56.000 --> 00:50:58.079 It, but my point is it is several. It's not 1018 00:50:58.119 --> 00:51:00.639 something that you just eyeball and look at the I 1019 00:51:00.639 --> 00:51:02.920 wouldn't just look at the agreement that's proposed and have 1020 00:51:03.000 --> 00:51:04.280 to do some due diligence. 1021 00:51:04.480 --> 00:51:05.559 Got it on the situation? 1022 00:51:06.039 --> 00:51:08.679 All right, Hey Brad O'Brien, I appreciate it, And Jim, 1023 00:51:08.719 --> 00:51:10.719 if I were you, I would literally give Brad a 1024 00:51:10.760 --> 00:51:14.719 call his numbers seven to zero three seven zero seven 1025 00:51:14.800 --> 00:51:17.079 three eight eight. I just I don't know where you're 1026 00:51:17.559 --> 00:51:19.719 I guess I'd want to attorney to look at it, Marco, 1027 00:51:19.760 --> 00:51:22.280 wouldn't you. I mean, if you're giving up some of 1028 00:51:22.320 --> 00:51:25.159 your property for an easement or for any reason, probably 1029 00:51:25.239 --> 00:51:26.440 have someone eyeball it. 1030 00:51:26.559 --> 00:51:29.519 Well, if it's been going on for sixty four years, yeah, 1031 00:51:29.559 --> 00:51:30.840 who in the hell gives a damn? 1032 00:51:31.559 --> 00:51:37.039 Well, maybe someone refining. Like Brad said, right, he's landlocked. 1033 00:51:36.440 --> 00:51:40.039 And you were right in some ways about you know, 1034 00:51:40.119 --> 00:51:43.199 it's similar to an eminent domain, right. 1035 00:51:43.239 --> 00:51:47.400 Yeah, because an eminent domain is someone taking your property 1036 00:51:47.400 --> 00:51:47.920 by force. 1037 00:51:48.000 --> 00:51:48.960 Yeah, but it's government. 1038 00:51:49.280 --> 00:51:53.519 Yeah, you know, taking personal property for public use. 1039 00:51:53.639 --> 00:51:54.440 Yeah okay. 1040 00:51:54.920 --> 00:51:58.360 And but if it's happened on a principle here, because 1041 00:51:58.400 --> 00:52:01.079 you have a homeown, who would. 1042 00:52:01.000 --> 00:52:04.840 You know suffer undue hardship? Yeah, right, so you can use. 1043 00:52:04.679 --> 00:52:09.000 That principle, you know, to get an easement in the circumstance. 1044 00:52:09.280 --> 00:52:11.440 Jim, you got any other questions? Are you gonna give 1045 00:52:11.440 --> 00:52:12.880 Brad a call? Or what are you thinking? 1046 00:52:14.239 --> 00:52:17.840 You're back with the UH with the other homeowners, and 1047 00:52:18.119 --> 00:52:20.960 we'll have a discussion and we'll probably get Brat a call. 1048 00:52:21.280 --> 00:52:24.199 Split split the cost up by twelve people or whatever 1049 00:52:24.239 --> 00:52:26.480 the breakdown is of homes. It's not going to cost 1050 00:52:26.519 --> 00:52:28.760 you that much. I mean, it's gonna be whatever the 1051 00:52:28.800 --> 00:52:32.360 hourly is times how many hours to look at the agreement. 1052 00:52:32.880 --> 00:52:36.599 You guys already have the full agreement though, right, yeah, 1053 00:52:36.800 --> 00:52:38.559 yeah you do. I mean that's what I would do. 1054 00:52:38.639 --> 00:52:40.760 I mean, like Dad, serious, all right? Three oh three 1055 00:52:40.920 --> 00:52:43.400 seven one three eight two five five. Marco, you brought 1056 00:52:43.480 --> 00:52:48.440 up eminent domain. It's used quite a bit. It's actually 1057 00:52:48.440 --> 00:52:52.079 gone to the Supreme Court I think more than once. 1058 00:52:52.239 --> 00:52:53.280 Right, yes, and. 1059 00:52:53.199 --> 00:52:55.480 They basically say, yeah, you can do it if it's 1060 00:52:55.559 --> 00:52:58.599 if it's good for everybody where I hate where they 1061 00:52:58.679 --> 00:53:02.159 use eminent domain is purely for tax revenue. I don't 1062 00:53:02.199 --> 00:53:04.519 think that's fair. If they got to build a highway 1063 00:53:04.559 --> 00:53:10.159 through a farmer's farm, infrastructure a bridge, something I agree 1064 00:53:10.199 --> 00:53:12.519 with it. Where I don't agree with it is you 1065 00:53:12.639 --> 00:53:15.360 got a strip mall somewhere and they want to take 1066 00:53:15.400 --> 00:53:18.280 all the small businesses in the strip mall and build 1067 00:53:18.320 --> 00:53:22.039 a casino. Because a casino and hotel is going to 1068 00:53:22.119 --> 00:53:24.760 generate a lot more tax dollars for the city. 1069 00:53:25.039 --> 00:53:27.480 I don't agree with it in those circumstances. What are 1070 00:53:27.519 --> 00:53:28.079 your thoughts? 1071 00:53:28.400 --> 00:53:32.119 Well, that would be a bunch of tenants, right, so 1072 00:53:32.880 --> 00:53:35.920 you know that's a tough one, you. 1073 00:53:35.880 --> 00:53:38.559 Know, But they use it for tax revenue all the 1074 00:53:38.559 --> 00:53:39.760 time across the country. 1075 00:53:39.840 --> 00:53:43.840 The court is required to do a balancing test, right 1076 00:53:44.480 --> 00:53:48.000 and you know, and so basically the court gets to 1077 00:53:48.039 --> 00:53:50.719 do whatever they want, right, Yeah, And then they say 1078 00:53:50.760 --> 00:53:54.880 that we had to balance the interest. Right, But the 1079 00:53:55.000 --> 00:53:59.519 government can't take your property without giving you compensation. 1080 00:54:00.079 --> 00:54:03.880 Yeah, but you fifth Amendment? You take my case with 1081 00:54:04.039 --> 00:54:07.320 my goodyear at now. Ultimately, I'll say this, it worked 1082 00:54:07.320 --> 00:54:11.920 out great for me, okay. But originally, when the City 1083 00:54:12.000 --> 00:54:14.920 and County of Denver walk into your place of business 1084 00:54:15.360 --> 00:54:17.519 and say, hey, this is exactly what they told me. 1085 00:54:17.559 --> 00:54:19.639 They said, look, this is what it was. A company 1086 00:54:19.679 --> 00:54:22.960 they hired Denver called h C. Peck, and HC Peck 1087 00:54:23.039 --> 00:54:25.480 came a knocking on my door, just like they did 1088 00:54:25.519 --> 00:54:29.679 the liquor store next door, the waffle house that was 1089 00:54:29.760 --> 00:54:30.840 on the other side of me. 1090 00:54:31.000 --> 00:54:34.159 And about ten other businesses. We all had the phone call, 1091 00:54:34.480 --> 00:54:36.360 and the phone call went or not the phone call. 1092 00:54:36.400 --> 00:54:39.079 They literally walked in and said, hey, hey, Mark, here's 1093 00:54:39.079 --> 00:54:42.039 the deal. You're not going to believe it, but we're 1094 00:54:42.039 --> 00:54:44.239 going to take your building. It's going to take about 1095 00:54:44.239 --> 00:54:45.760 a year and a half and you're going to be 1096 00:54:45.840 --> 00:54:48.119 upset and you're going to fight it, and a lot 1097 00:54:48.199 --> 00:54:49.599 of people are going to try to fight it. But 1098 00:54:49.679 --> 00:54:52.079 the bottom line is, I want you to understand something. 1099 00:54:52.559 --> 00:54:53.079 We're going to. 1100 00:54:53.079 --> 00:54:56.960 Take your building because we're building. We're building a train 1101 00:54:57.079 --> 00:55:00.320 station right here that's going to go to da and 1102 00:55:00.360 --> 00:55:03.400 there's nothing that's going to stop that no matter what. Now, 1103 00:55:03.480 --> 00:55:06.760 I only rented that building. So what happened is my 1104 00:55:07.000 --> 00:55:11.039 landlord got compensated very well. The City and County of 1105 00:55:11.079 --> 00:55:14.320 Denver paid me to move. That's big deal. 1106 00:55:14.440 --> 00:55:16.840 What about loss of revenue. No, they didn't pay. 1107 00:55:16.880 --> 00:55:19.360 They do not pay loss of revenue on an eminent 1108 00:55:19.400 --> 00:55:22.119 do main claim with a small business, do not whatsoever 1109 00:55:22.920 --> 00:55:25.719 they did through storage. So in other words, I had 1110 00:55:25.719 --> 00:55:28.159 the store tires, they paid for storage, They paid for 1111 00:55:28.239 --> 00:55:31.159 the moving some of the code. I ended up buying 1112 00:55:31.360 --> 00:55:34.519 a building directly behind that building. I bought a building 1113 00:55:34.880 --> 00:55:37.360 and that turned out to work out very good for 1114 00:55:37.440 --> 00:55:39.920 me in the long run. But in that intro where 1115 00:55:39.960 --> 00:55:42.400 I had to convert this building into a good year, 1116 00:55:42.679 --> 00:55:44.079 it cost me a damn fortune. 1117 00:55:44.079 --> 00:55:47.119 Well, I had a uncertainty. You know, they just interrupted 1118 00:55:47.119 --> 00:55:50.320 your business. I mean, thank god it turned out okay. 1119 00:55:50.079 --> 00:55:52.760 Right, but you didn't know at the time. I mean, 1120 00:55:52.800 --> 00:55:55.360 they come in, they say something like that, and I 1121 00:55:55.400 --> 00:55:57.559 went through all the emotions they told me. They said, 1122 00:55:57.559 --> 00:55:59.079 you're going to fight it. You're going to think you're 1123 00:55:59.079 --> 00:56:00.000 gonna win. It's unfair. 1124 00:56:00.440 --> 00:56:03.679 H C Peck was actually very good at setting expectations 1125 00:56:03.840 --> 00:56:07.800 because everything they told me actually came true. 1126 00:56:07.920 --> 00:56:09.159 I mean literally everything. 1127 00:56:09.360 --> 00:56:13.480 So the city paid them because HC Peck had to 1128 00:56:13.519 --> 00:56:17.440 write a report. Right, So that's the city's evidence that 1129 00:56:17.480 --> 00:56:20.159 they could present in a hearing as to why it's 1130 00:56:20.199 --> 00:56:20.719 a good thing. 1131 00:56:20.880 --> 00:56:24.199 Yeah, and they Here's what people don't realize about businesses 1132 00:56:24.199 --> 00:56:26.800 in eminent domain. And I'm not talking about when the 1133 00:56:26.840 --> 00:56:29.360 city comes in and takes an easement or something and 1134 00:56:29.480 --> 00:56:32.800 takes ten feet of property. I'm talking when they come 1135 00:56:32.840 --> 00:56:34.960 in and shut you down. When they come in and 1136 00:56:35.000 --> 00:56:38.960 shut you down. The percentage of businesses that made it 1137 00:56:39.039 --> 00:56:41.719 through that. Okay, I already told you a waffle house, 1138 00:56:41.800 --> 00:56:47.239 a veterinarian, Bennett's Barbecue, Taco Bell I think it was 1139 00:56:47.280 --> 00:56:50.519 Taco Bell or that other taco place, a liquor store. 1140 00:56:50.800 --> 00:56:53.719 There was about twelve of us. Out of those twelve, 1141 00:56:53.760 --> 00:56:57.199 not one is still there. The success rate of moving 1142 00:56:57.239 --> 00:57:01.400 a small business. Where was that's customer? Seventy Impuia. It's 1143 00:57:01.440 --> 00:57:02.880 right where the big train station is. 1144 00:57:02.960 --> 00:57:06.320 Okay, when there Bennett's Barbecue in Arvada? Yeah, they had 1145 00:57:06.320 --> 00:57:08.199 one in Arvada. And they also had one in. 1146 00:57:09.639 --> 00:57:11.960 Where was that other one's u Zam Park Meadows for 1147 00:57:12.000 --> 00:57:15.920 a very small amount of time, well over at Kipling 1148 00:57:16.159 --> 00:57:21.360 and no, right by our old corporate headquarters in Quebec. Yeah, 1149 00:57:21.400 --> 00:57:24.000 it was one of those restaurants that, like, it's been 1150 00:57:24.039 --> 00:57:27.480 a restaurant fifty different times. Marco, have you ever seen 1151 00:57:27.519 --> 00:57:31.719 those like some retail business that nothing can survive in 1152 00:57:31.760 --> 00:57:34.119 that area. Guys, and I have no idea why that 1153 00:57:34.360 --> 00:57:36.800 was one of those restaurants. In fact, it's probably been 1154 00:57:37.320 --> 00:57:38.559 ten different things. 1155 00:57:39.000 --> 00:57:41.760 Yeah, that's that's that's working against instincts. 1156 00:57:42.039 --> 00:57:43.239 Yeah, it's like, why. 1157 00:57:43.159 --> 00:57:45.840 Go that history of failure here?

We've had foot access to our property, 1207 01:00:15.079 --> 01:00:18.400 which is about fifteen feet off the county day. Yeah, 1208 01:00:18.519 --> 01:00:21.679 since thineteen sixty. And now that I want to actually 1209 01:00:21.760 --> 01:00:24.760 drive a car across that my boat, both my neighbors 1210 01:00:24.800 --> 01:00:28.440 on either side got together and landlocked you, and so 1211 01:00:28.519 --> 01:00:30.360 I did have to hire a lawyer go to car 1212 01:00:30.519 --> 01:00:31.840 to seek access. 1213 01:00:31.960 --> 01:00:33.239 Oh my god, Mike, how long? 1214 01:00:33.400 --> 01:00:34.519 How No? 1215 01:00:34.599 --> 01:00:37.440 Wait wait that was such a mouthful. Why would these 1216 01:00:37.639 --> 01:00:40.039 jerks and I'm using my own term there. I'm not 1217 01:00:40.079 --> 01:00:42.719 saying you're calling them jerks, but why would they get 1218 01:00:42.719 --> 01:00:50.119 together and try to landlock you? Why are they such jerks? 1219 01:00:50.599 --> 01:00:55.599 I can only say they are maybe far last. 1220 01:00:54.840 --> 01:00:58.360 Or okay, So in other words, you had a truck 1221 01:00:58.440 --> 01:01:00.000 flag and they're voting for Harris. 1222 01:01:00.039 --> 01:01:03.000 Yes, I got you. 1223 01:01:03.760 --> 01:01:06.039 That's unbelievable, though it doesn't make sense. 1224 01:01:06.519 --> 01:01:08.800 I've been very nice to them over the years. Yeah, 1225 01:01:08.840 --> 01:01:11.519 they bought property to Lamb Mockney. 1226 01:01:11.639 --> 01:01:14.400 No, you probably, I swore to God, you probably nailed it. 1227 01:01:14.440 --> 01:01:17.559 You probably had the wrong flag up or something. How 1228 01:01:17.639 --> 01:01:21.119 much did you spend to get this done altogether where 1229 01:01:21.159 --> 01:01:23.280 you can get to your own house for God's sake? 1230 01:01:23.440 --> 01:01:26.159 Doesn't sound like pauls No. 1231 01:01:27.880 --> 01:01:30.719 With lawyers, surveyors, it's thinking about two years. I think 1232 01:01:30.760 --> 01:01:33.079 it was called thousand or so dollars. 1233 01:01:33.519 --> 01:01:35.360 Did they end up having to pay any part of 1234 01:01:35.400 --> 01:01:36.280 your attorney's fees? 1235 01:01:37.639 --> 01:01:43.280 No? Now, And that's the crux of the comments. In Colorado, 1236 01:01:43.800 --> 01:01:48.800 you have a constitutional Colorado right to access your property. Yeah, 1237 01:01:48.840 --> 01:01:49.960 they don't want to give it to you. 1238 01:01:50.159 --> 01:01:51.320 That's absolutely right. 1239 01:01:53.159 --> 01:01:56.440 A lawyer not a lawyer. Yeah, a lawyer will uh 1240 01:01:57.000 --> 01:01:59.800 guarantee that. So they will. Somebody will give you an 1241 01:02:00.440 --> 01:02:03.360 over their property so that you can have access to 1242 01:02:03.400 --> 01:02:07.639 your pain. I have guaranteed a shared easement. Now, I 1243 01:02:07.800 --> 01:02:11.400 offered to buy this twelve foot strip of land, this 1244 01:02:11.599 --> 01:02:14.679 twenty five feet of it of a twelve by twenty 1245 01:02:14.719 --> 01:02:17.480 five piece, for five thousand dollars. They would not sell 1246 01:02:17.519 --> 01:02:19.880 me that little strip of land. So then I had 1247 01:02:19.920 --> 01:02:20.840 to go to court. 1248 01:02:21.880 --> 01:02:22.239 To be. 1249 01:02:23.679 --> 01:02:27.480 Offered my shared easement over their land to my property. 1250 01:02:27.559 --> 01:02:29.000 So you ended up getting it. 1251 01:02:29.199 --> 01:02:31.639 You ended up actually getting it cheaper, didn't you. 1252 01:02:34.280 --> 01:02:37.400 I'd rather spent the five thousand to have my own 1253 01:02:37.519 --> 01:02:43.840 access without my neighbor's thumb or observation of what I 1254 01:02:43.920 --> 01:02:48.679 do on there. It's still her their property. It's just 1255 01:02:48.719 --> 01:02:51.679 that we have a shared easement so I may access it, 1256 01:02:52.079 --> 01:02:55.280 but that person still owns it, and I don't like that. 1257 01:02:55.599 --> 01:02:58.360 Did it burn them? I mean, are they like totally 1258 01:02:58.440 --> 01:03:00.480 upset over this whole deal when it was all said 1259 01:03:00.480 --> 01:03:00.840 and done. 1260 01:03:00.880 --> 01:03:01.840 Oh yeah, yeah. 1261 01:03:02.159 --> 01:03:04.679 Can you imagine, just like, I don't care how much 1262 01:03:04.679 --> 01:03:07.719 you don't like someone, but long as you're not like 1263 01:03:07.800 --> 01:03:10.440 in your face all the time. To try to cut 1264 01:03:10.480 --> 01:03:14.000 access for them to get to their house is crazy. 1265 01:03:14.280 --> 01:03:16.639 Did they ever try to put up like a roadblock 1266 01:03:16.760 --> 01:03:18.760 or anything to literally cut you off? 1267 01:03:20.079 --> 01:03:20.599 Actually? 1268 01:03:20.760 --> 01:03:22.280 Yes, Oh my god. 1269 01:03:23.760 --> 01:03:27.960 I've been crossing this twelve foot strip since I was 1270 01:03:28.079 --> 01:03:30.159 I'm fifty six. I've been doing it since I was 1271 01:03:30.239 --> 01:03:33.960 three chez and on vehicle since I was a kid. 1272 01:03:34.320 --> 01:03:36.760 And when I started doing that, they came over and said, no, 1273 01:03:36.920 --> 01:03:40.320 this is private property. You can't cross this, and they 1274 01:03:40.320 --> 01:03:42.119 were yelling at it. They went to the other neighbor 1275 01:03:42.679 --> 01:03:45.840 and that person said, uh, no, I don't want you 1276 01:03:45.920 --> 01:03:49.199 on a property. So actually you're excluded from your property 1277 01:03:49.199 --> 01:03:50.000 and your landlocked. 1278 01:03:50.519 --> 01:03:51.599 Hey, Mike, how long. 1279 01:03:51.519 --> 01:03:53.760 I couldn't even go to my property but it's twelve 1280 01:03:53.880 --> 01:03:56.280 feet from so much crazy? 1281 01:03:56.400 --> 01:03:57.519 Mike. How long did it take? 1282 01:03:57.559 --> 01:03:59.480 How long did this fight take from the time they 1283 01:03:59.480 --> 01:04:03.000 first fricted your access and told it and what and 1284 01:04:03.000 --> 01:04:05.000 and what did you do during those two years? 1285 01:04:05.039 --> 01:04:07.199 They sounds like they blocked the road? Would you do? 1286 01:04:07.280 --> 01:04:08.639 Just keep moving all their stuff? 1287 01:04:08.800 --> 01:04:12.440 Well right, walking the road? Yeah, that little strip that 1288 01:04:12.639 --> 01:04:16.360 spur of land that they own. Uh, they put up 1289 01:04:16.360 --> 01:04:19.760 a log barricade somewhere.

This pickup's been 1349 01:07:22.239 --> 01:07:25.639 in the shop three four times since then. I took 1350 01:07:25.679 --> 01:07:27.159 it back to the dealership a couple of times. They 1351 01:07:27.199 --> 01:07:29.159 said they couldn't find it. The first time they didn't 1352 01:07:29.159 --> 01:07:30.559 look at it at all, gave me a print off, 1353 01:07:30.599 --> 01:07:33.119 saying that what I was thinking was wrong with it 1354 01:07:32.920 --> 01:07:36.239 was perfectly normal. The second time they finally looked at it, 1355 01:07:36.639 --> 01:07:39.639 said that they couldn't find anything wrong with it. Said 1356 01:07:39.679 --> 01:07:41.480 maybe I should think about taking it to Chevy. So 1357 01:07:41.519 --> 01:07:43.880 I take it to the Chevy dealership. So I bought 1358 01:07:43.880 --> 01:07:46.280 it a four dealership in the truck at GMC, take 1359 01:07:46.280 --> 01:07:48.760 it to the Chevy dealership, and the Chevy dealership says, 1360 01:07:48.840 --> 01:07:52.480 there's a vacuum pump issue with the brakes, there's a 1361 01:07:52.519 --> 01:07:54.840 camshaft and lifter issue that need to be replaced. 1362 01:07:54.840 --> 01:07:57.840 Hey, Arthur, what was the initial What was the initial issue? 1363 01:07:57.880 --> 01:07:58.800 You were having. 1364 01:08:00.199 --> 01:08:02.840 Everything The truck was knocking and the brakes were spongy. 1365 01:08:02.920 --> 01:08:04.760 That's what initially started me. After I bought it, I 1366 01:08:04.800 --> 01:08:06.880 was like, wait, okay, And then you went too, and 1367 01:08:06.920 --> 01:08:07.480 it was dark. 1368 01:08:07.559 --> 01:08:09.480 You went to one shop.

They said that the lead tech that 1374 01:08:18.600 --> 01:08:20.720 looked at it didn't actually look at the truck. He 1375 01:08:20.840 --> 01:08:23.680 said that what I was hearing, the lift, the knocking 1376 01:08:24.000 --> 01:08:25.479 was normal, and he gave me some kind of a 1377 01:08:25.520 --> 01:08:27.880 print out from the internet. Yeah, that was supposed to 1378 01:08:27.920 --> 01:08:29.439 explain why it was normal. 1379 01:08:29.760 --> 01:08:31.600 How long did you own the truck, Arthur. 1380 01:08:33.680 --> 01:08:35.279 I've owned it since like January fifteenth. 1381 01:08:35.399 --> 01:08:38.000 All right, so you pretty much bought the truck. You 1382 01:08:38.039 --> 01:08:40.399 had problems with it pretty much right after you got it. 1383 01:08:40.439 --> 01:08:42.600 You brought it back to where you bought it. They 1384 01:08:42.640 --> 01:08:45.640 said there was no problem. They didn't feel the spongy brakes, 1385 01:08:46.000 --> 01:08:48.319 and they said the noise was normal. Then you brought 1386 01:08:48.319 --> 01:08:52.840 it over to a dealer, a Chevy dealer, Correct, and 1387 01:08:52.880 --> 01:08:55.279 the Chevy dealer said you needed all this work. 1388 01:08:56.680 --> 01:09:00.840 Correct. It's around fifteen grand in replacement in repair. 1389 01:09:00.920 --> 01:09:03.319 Yeah, they're probably trying to upsell you on some stuff. 1390 01:09:03.319 --> 01:09:05.520 But let's just talk about the spongy breaks. 1391 01:09:05.560 --> 01:09:06.079 What is that? 1392 01:09:07.800 --> 01:09:09.720 So it ended up being a master pump that was 1393 01:09:09.760 --> 01:09:13.680 covered by warranty, So that's going to get replaced. But 1394 01:09:14.039 --> 01:09:17.319 my issue is that the truck that I traded in 1395 01:09:17.399 --> 01:09:21.319 for this truck was in perfect running conditions. Yeah, and 1396 01:09:22.319 --> 01:09:26.039 this truck is completely just not what I pick.

Yeah, if they're an insult range, 1472 01:13:18.600 --> 01:13:19.640 we're filing a lawsuit. 1473 01:13:19.960 --> 01:13:23.920 And you know, because it's not only an economical decision, 1474 01:13:24.600 --> 01:13:27.079 it's also a reputation decision. 1475 01:13:27.680 --> 01:13:28.079 Got it. 1476 01:13:28.479 --> 01:13:32.439 But if they're offering in most cases, if they have 1477 01:13:32.560 --> 01:13:37.119 say twenty five thousand of insurance, and there's there's thirty 1478 01:13:37.159 --> 01:13:39.680 forty thousand dollars in damages. 1479 01:13:39.279 --> 01:13:40.039 Well that's different. 1480 01:13:40.199 --> 01:13:41.800 Yeah, But I mean, what do you possibly do? You 1481 01:13:41.920 --> 01:13:46.159 end up just taking the twenty five grand under most circumstances. 1482 01:13:45.399 --> 01:13:47.800 And then you go to your own coverage, which is 1483 01:13:48.000 --> 01:13:51.680 uninsured or underinsured motor if they have it, which is 1484 01:13:51.720 --> 01:13:53.840 the most important. 1485 01:13:53.479 --> 01:13:55.960 Piece on your personal auto insurment. 1486 01:13:56.000 --> 01:13:59.000 I've yet to meet a personal injury attorney, including John 1487 01:13:59.079 --> 01:14:02.359 fully that doesn't say that exact same thing. And people 1488 01:14:02.399 --> 01:14:05.239 don't understand most important coverage people. 1489 01:14:05.840 --> 01:14:06.840 People listen to this. 1490 01:14:07.199 --> 01:14:11.760 You will pay all this money to ensure your own liability, 1491 01:14:12.000 --> 01:14:15.239 meaning to ensure if you screw up.

You 1525 01:15:46.239 --> 01:15:49.159 realize that twenty five thousand, why know, you know, it's 1526 01:15:49.199 --> 01:15:51.760 like nothing. I mean, think about it. It doesn't even 1527 01:15:51.800 --> 01:15:53.359 cover a new car at this point. 1528 01:15:53.399 --> 01:15:55.880 Well, I mean that's a hospital. A hospital visits ten 1529 01:15:55.920 --> 01:15:56.600 thousand dollars. 1530 01:15:56.760 --> 01:15:59.680 I guarantee the car you're driving is over fifty thousand. 1531 01:16:00.039 --> 01:16:02.000 And a lot of people are driving a car these 1532 01:16:02.079 --> 01:16:05.800 days since COVID especially that's worth over fifty thousand. I'm 1533 01:16:05.800 --> 01:16:08.319 not saying everybody that's that's not my point in this. 1534 01:16:08.600 --> 01:16:12.359 But you get hit by somebody that's got minimum coverage, 1535 01:16:12.760 --> 01:16:15.079 might you can't even get your car fixed anymore? 1536 01:16:15.359 --> 01:16:21.119 Well you can't, Okay, I let I let a little 1537 01:16:21.159 --> 01:16:22.039 silence go there. 1538 01:16:22.159 --> 01:16:24.840 Yeah for drama. Yeah, I heard you did it work. 1539 01:16:25.119 --> 01:16:28.840 I continued to do the silence for more drama. 1540 01:16:29.000 --> 01:16:34.319 Okay, you did, so you could go and get your 1541 01:16:34.319 --> 01:16:38.159 car fixed under your collision coverage. Might have the coverage 1542 01:16:38.199 --> 01:16:41.159 if you but you have the coverage if your car's finance, 1543 01:16:41.439 --> 01:16:42.199 because it's not. 1544 01:16:42.239 --> 01:16:43.880 Your car, it's the car. 1545 01:16:43.960 --> 01:16:47.239 You're correcting that or you should, or if you let 1546 01:16:47.319 --> 01:16:50.159 that coverage lapse, what happens is a credit union or 1547 01:16:50.159 --> 01:16:53.800 whoever forces that crappy insurance that only covers the. 1548 01:16:53.800 --> 01:16:57.880 Bank, right, and the possess your car. Oh hell yeah 1549 01:16:57.920 --> 01:17:00.840 they will if they got a big asset there and 1550 01:17:01.039 --> 01:17:03.359 you know you're leaving it uninsured. 1551 01:17:03.399 --> 01:17:05.760 Well they'll take your boat, your airplane if you're back 1552 01:17:05.840 --> 01:17:10.119 on payments and don't have their asset ensured. Because when 1553 01:17:10.239 --> 01:17:13.760 your car has a payment on it, I assure you 1554 01:17:14.159 --> 01:17:15.520 that is not your car. 1555 01:17:15.880 --> 01:17:18.920 That is the bank's car exactly. You can't sell it 1556 01:17:19.000 --> 01:17:20.359 until you pay off the bank. 1557 01:17:20.520 --> 01:17:24.119 So most people, because we've been brainwashed into thinking everyone 1558 01:17:24.159 --> 01:17:27.560 should have a car payment as a nation, right, we're 1559 01:17:27.600 --> 01:17:30.359 always one car behind what we can afford. Of course 1560 01:17:31.560 --> 01:17:35.880 not true, but anyway, so most people will have collision coverage. 1561 01:17:36.119 --> 01:17:38.760 So you get you know, you get your car fixed 1562 01:17:38.840 --> 01:17:40.079 with your own carrier yep. 1563 01:17:40.119 --> 01:17:43.279 And then then your own carrier well long as there's 1564 01:17:43.359 --> 01:17:45.680 money on the other side is going to subrogate and 1565 01:17:45.720 --> 01:17:47.760 try to get their money back. But if you're up 1566 01:17:47.760 --> 01:17:50.840 at those maximum limits, no one's going to get their 1567 01:17:50.880 --> 01:17:52.319 money back, right right. 1568 01:17:52.119 --> 01:17:56.159 And you use the fancy word there, watch one subrogate, subrigate. 1569 01:17:56.640 --> 01:17:59.359 It happens all the time. In fact, every auto accident. 1570 01:17:59.560 --> 01:18:02.039 People don't don't realize this. A lot of people show 1571 01:18:02.079 --> 01:18:04.039 up at the hospital. What do they do. They say, Oh, 1572 01:18:04.039 --> 01:18:07.119 I've got health insurance, I've got Kaiser, or I've got whatever, 1573 01:18:07.159 --> 01:18:09.720 it doesn't matter what you have. And you go through 1574 01:18:09.760 --> 01:18:11.600 an auto accident and you get to the end of 1575 01:18:11.640 --> 01:18:14.760 it and you used your health insurance the whole time, Well, 1576 01:18:14.800 --> 01:18:17.880 your health insurance will end up getting reimbursed. They will 1577 01:18:17.920 --> 01:18:21.199 actually subrogate against whoever was it at fault and get 1578 01:18:21.279 --> 01:18:23.840 those bills done. And one of the things John Fuller 1579 01:18:23.880 --> 01:18:26.960 has taught me, which is incredible, those bills can be massive. 1580 01:18:27.000 --> 01:18:30.720 As far as an emergency room because it's a thunder dumb, 1581 01:18:30.880 --> 01:18:33.560 I mean really really in an er can charge whatever 1582 01:18:33.600 --> 01:18:35.640 the hell they want. There's no rhyme or reason. Now, 1583 01:18:35.680 --> 01:18:38.680 I swear to god, ADDIE's accident listened to this. Marco 1584 01:18:39.159 --> 01:18:41.600 thirty three thousand dollars. We were in there for an 1585 01:18:41.600 --> 01:18:43.920 hour and a half right up here at Skyridge. She 1586 01:18:44.000 --> 01:18:47.039 had an MRI, a cat scan, and then just the 1587 01:18:47.399 --> 01:18:49.319 er fees thirty three thousand. 1588 01:18:49.840 --> 01:18:51.560 That's a lot, all said and done. 1589 01:18:51.680 --> 01:18:54.319 When the case was over and it was time to 1590 01:18:54.319 --> 01:18:58.039 pay the piper and the subrogation was happening between the 1591 01:18:58.079 --> 01:19:02.079 health insurance and the auto accident, John got those bills down. 1592 01:19:02.119 --> 01:19:04.560 Listen to this man, it's like seven grand, which is 1593 01:19:04.600 --> 01:19:06.640 like normal. I mean, that's what they should have been 1594 01:19:06.680 --> 01:19:09.439 to belief. But and you get to keep the money. 1595 01:19:09.439 --> 01:19:10.880 A lot of people don't realize that. 1596 01:19:11.319 --> 01:19:16.119 Explain why that is. Explain why if you're my attorney. 1597 01:19:16.079 --> 01:19:20.199 And there's a hospital bill lucky, first of all, and. 1598 01:19:20.199 --> 01:19:23.680 There's a hospital bill for twenty thousand dollars okay, and 1599 01:19:23.760 --> 01:19:26.760 you get the hospital to accept three thousand at the end, 1600 01:19:27.399 --> 01:19:30.560 Explain to me why that's seventeen thousand we get to keep. 1601 01:19:30.600 --> 01:19:33.760 Why is that? It's unlike any other issue I can 1602 01:19:33.800 --> 01:19:34.239 think about. 1603 01:19:34.640 --> 01:19:37.600 If I have a homeowner's claim on a couch, well, 1604 01:19:37.640 --> 01:19:38.439 I guess really it is. 1605 01:19:38.520 --> 01:19:40.960 It's replacement. But go ahead, explain why. 1606 01:19:41.039 --> 01:19:42.880 Well, first of all, if you got a twenty. Let's 1607 01:19:42.880 --> 01:19:45.520 say you got a twenty five dollars hospital bill. Yeah, okay, 1608 01:19:46.159 --> 01:19:52.039 you can use the billed amount against the third party 1609 01:19:52.319 --> 01:19:52.960 at fault. 1610 01:19:53.119 --> 01:19:54.560 I know, defend it, I know. 1611 01:19:54.680 --> 01:19:58.239 But even if it's only cost a fraction of that, 1612 01:19:58.279 --> 01:19:59.920 you still get to keep that full of man. 1613 01:20:00.000 --> 01:20:03.039 Oh right, Well, one of the reasons you get to 1614 01:20:03.079 --> 01:20:07.800 keep it is because you had the foresight to have 1615 01:20:07.880 --> 01:20:08.600 health insurance. 1616 01:20:08.920 --> 01:20:09.119 Yeah. 1617 01:20:09.800 --> 01:20:13.800 Because and so that is called the collateral source rule. 1618 01:20:14.520 --> 01:20:17.560 And what that means is the person that hit you 1619 01:20:18.600 --> 01:20:24.680 cannot benefit from anything that you purchased to cover that incident. 1620 01:20:24.520 --> 01:20:27.960 Because, as you said, had the foresight to have health insurance. 1621 01:20:28.279 --> 01:20:30.479 That can't benefit the guy at fault or the gallant. 1622 01:20:30.880 --> 01:20:31.720 You get to claim the. 1623 01:20:31.720 --> 01:20:34.359 Twenty and then you know, tell them with your insurance company, 1624 01:20:34.399 --> 01:20:36.319 you did it greatly reduced. 1625 01:20:36.840 --> 01:20:38.880 Let's go back to like hail damage on a house, 1626 01:20:38.920 --> 01:20:41.199 because here's kind of where it's different. If I have 1627 01:20:41.279 --> 01:20:44.720 hail damage at a house and I tell my insurance 1628 01:20:44.720 --> 01:20:46.600 company I need a new roof, and they come out 1629 01:20:46.600 --> 01:20:48.840 there and they agree I need a new roof, and 1630 01:20:48.960 --> 01:20:51.920 the new roof is eighteen thousand dollars, and I get 1631 01:20:51.920 --> 01:20:53.840 a check for them for eighteen. But then I go 1632 01:20:53.880 --> 01:20:56.000 out and I find Jay Brats or someone to do 1633 01:20:56.079 --> 01:20:58.840 my roof, and I only do it and somehow I 1634 01:20:58.880 --> 01:21:01.680 get it done for ten grands. Technically I got to 1635 01:21:01.720 --> 01:21:05.640 send back that a grant. Oh, bs man, that's almost 1636 01:21:05.680 --> 01:21:06.920 insurance for hire me. 1637 01:21:08.159 --> 01:21:11.039 So that insurance fraud is something else. That's like when 1638 01:21:11.079 --> 01:21:13.239 you engineer a claim that didn't happen. 1639 01:21:13.279 --> 01:21:16.880 No, nope, So listen, let me if you can get 1640 01:21:16.920 --> 01:21:19.840 your roof done.

This must 1686 01:23:29.600 --> 01:23:32.920 be the wrong bill because this says clean up Provisions, 1687 01:23:33.000 --> 01:23:36.800 which enacted recommendations of the Colorado Commission on Criminal in 1688 01:23:36.920 --> 01:23:37.920 Juvenile Justice. 1689 01:23:38.000 --> 01:23:39.479 I don't think this is it? 1690 01:23:39.560 --> 01:23:39.720 Is it? 1691 01:23:40.359 --> 01:23:42.520 Is it? So? What explain it? Marco? 1692 01:23:42.600 --> 01:23:44.439 I mean, do you know, well, you know it was 1693 01:23:44.600 --> 01:23:49.279 touted as you can still own a gun, and. 1694 01:23:50.960 --> 01:23:53.119 We're gonna limit if you're a felon. 1695 01:23:53.520 --> 01:23:56.399 Well, well we're gonna limit the crimes we're gonna limit, 1696 01:23:56.439 --> 01:24:00.159 We're gonna narrow, make it more narrow to keep a 1697 01:24:00.159 --> 01:24:00.720 gun from you. 1698 01:24:01.560 --> 01:24:04.600 That was the way it was sold, right, So in 1699 01:24:04.600 --> 01:24:07.840 other words, it seemed like a second. 1700 01:24:07.560 --> 01:24:10.000 Amendment supported Second amendment. 1701 01:24:10.159 --> 01:24:13.239 This is like what they did to double our property taxes. 1702 01:24:13.600 --> 01:24:17.199 That said, hey, this bill's going to lower your property taxes, 1703 01:24:17.239 --> 01:24:20.279 and people voted on it and their property taxes were doubled. 1704 01:24:20.520 --> 01:24:23.279 So you're saying, AOKI doped us aoki do this. You 1705 01:24:23.359 --> 01:24:25.960 got to read the footnote. So what's the final you 1706 01:24:26.000 --> 01:24:26.760 can't own a gun? 1707 01:24:27.239 --> 01:24:34.640 Well, actually, it expands the list of prior convictions that 1708 01:24:34.720 --> 01:24:36.520 when you get a new conviction. 1709 01:24:36.760 --> 01:24:39.239 That they can take your firearm, that they can take 1710 01:24:39.279 --> 01:24:39.640 it away. 1711 01:24:39.800 --> 01:24:42.960 So it's it's it's a double edged sword, and I 1712 01:24:43.000 --> 01:24:46.279 would say the second edge is the worst one. 1713 01:24:46.399 --> 01:24:48.680 Yeah, it always is, you know, it always is. This 1714 01:24:48.840 --> 01:24:51.560 is the same state. Didn't did Polus I guess he 1715 01:24:51.640 --> 01:24:53.520 didn't have to sign it. But did the bill go 1716 01:24:53.640 --> 01:24:56.119 through with any gas fired? 1717 01:24:56.319 --> 01:24:56.560 Oh? 1718 01:24:56.680 --> 01:25:00.680 Yeah, yeah, that aspect the summer of next well, and 1719 01:25:00.720 --> 01:25:01.880 of course what's going to happen. 1720 01:25:01.880 --> 01:25:05.359 Hopefully it gets up to the Supreme Court fast. Well, 1721 01:25:05.399 --> 01:25:07.479 but there's no way that's going to be upheld. I 1722 01:25:07.479 --> 01:25:10.640 mean that that limits stuff. That's absolutely crazy. 1723 01:25:11.079 --> 01:25:11.680 Yeah it is. 1724 01:25:11.720 --> 01:25:13.880 But you know, the good news for us freedom loving 1725 01:25:13.920 --> 01:25:17.239 Americans is that they're also already a number of very 1726 01:25:17.279 --> 01:25:20.920 similar cases at the Supreme Court. Now that could change this, 1727 01:25:20.920 --> 01:25:24.600 that could absolutely just just tank this this entire body 1728 01:25:24.600 --> 01:25:24.920 of law. 1729 01:25:25.000 --> 01:25:28.279 I don't trust one damn thing our legislation in Colorado 1730 01:25:28.359 --> 01:25:34.239 does that thing. That thing with property taxes was crazy. 1731 01:25:34.479 --> 01:25:37.640 They gave us like a little discount one year, and 1732 01:25:37.680 --> 01:25:39.640 then the very next year mine doubled. 1733 01:25:39.760 --> 01:25:40.439 It doubled. 1734 01:25:41.359 --> 01:25:44.159 It was the craziest thing I've ever seen. I don't 1735 01:25:44.199 --> 01:25:46.880 trust a damn thing they do in this stay not 1736 01:25:47.000 --> 01:25:47.720 a damn thing. 1737 01:25:49.000 --> 01:25:50.119 So very disappointing. 1738 01:25:50.239 --> 01:25:52.680 So Dan, what's your opinion on it? If you read it, 1739 01:25:52.720 --> 01:25:55.840 I mean, it sounds like it's just another no, you 1740 01:25:55.880 --> 01:25:58.319 can't have a gun. It sounds like, from what you 1741 01:25:58.359 --> 01:26:02.399 were saying, Marco, there might be some exclusion for something 1742 01:26:02.720 --> 01:26:04.840 very very strange or something. 1743 01:26:05.119 --> 01:26:06.960 Well, they're the first time. 1744 01:26:06.840 --> 01:26:11.640 Offenses that would prevent you from a fire Give me 1745 01:26:11.680 --> 01:26:15.159 one that possibly that you wouldn't you you wouldn't have 1746 01:26:15.199 --> 01:26:17.119 been able to own a firearm, and now you can. 1747 01:26:18.079 --> 01:26:18.720 I don't know. 1748 01:26:18.840 --> 01:26:20.840 I mean, it's not going to be anything like domestic 1749 01:26:20.920 --> 01:26:22.239 violence or bank robbery. 1750 01:26:22.359 --> 01:26:26.520 Oh no, that's maybe a d UI, maybe a felony 1751 01:26:26.600 --> 01:26:29.199 d UI. Maybe maybe a felony DUI. 1752 01:26:29.279 --> 01:26:32.920 But if you but if you get into trouble again, 1753 01:26:33.760 --> 01:26:36.039 the chances of them taking your gun are now much 1754 01:26:36.119 --> 01:26:38.600 higher than they were exactly because. 1755 01:26:38.319 --> 01:26:40.760 They they it's almost like they can reach back. 1756 01:26:40.960 --> 01:26:42.960 Yeah, I got you, and and you know, and bring 1757 01:26:42.960 --> 01:26:44.920 a new sum to the table. 1758 01:26:45.119 --> 01:26:48.159 Dan, does that help your question at all a little bit? 1759 01:26:48.279 --> 01:26:51.119 What about if someone got caught trying to buy like 1760 01:26:51.319 --> 01:26:54.560 two pounds of pot and it was a felony. 1761 01:26:54.920 --> 01:26:57.960 I have no idea. I mean, my god, can't you 1762 01:26:58.000 --> 01:26:59.960 go in and buy two pounds of pot right now? 1763 01:27:00.159 --> 01:27:00.239 So? 1764 01:27:00.279 --> 01:27:01.800 Allow would someone do that? Yeah? 1765 01:27:01.800 --> 01:27:03.560 I mean like literally, I mean I guess you can 1766 01:27:03.600 --> 01:27:04.800 only buy a certain amount. 1767 01:27:04.840 --> 01:27:08.279 But I think Dan is probably talking about before pott 1768 01:27:08.319 --> 01:27:11.359 was legalized, and you have a connection for buying two, 1769 01:27:11.800 --> 01:27:14.119 so Dan, so I believe that person would still be 1770 01:27:14.159 --> 01:27:16.399 prohibited regardless of one. 1771 01:27:16.760 --> 01:27:20.039 So in criminal defense, that's interesting what you said. You've 1772 01:27:20.079 --> 01:27:21.640 done criminal defense, Marco. 1773 01:27:22.000 --> 01:27:24.119 I have a full time lawyer that works for me, 1774 01:27:24.479 --> 01:27:27.720 but that's criminal So I'm not I'm not an expert, 1775 01:27:27.760 --> 01:27:28.880 but I'll answer your question. 1776 01:27:29.000 --> 01:27:33.159 Yeah, Well, think about this if if buying dope or yeah, 1777 01:27:33.159 --> 01:27:36.800 if buying dope was illegal, not selling it, but buying 1778 01:27:36.840 --> 01:27:39.640 it was illegal. And I assumed twenty years ago in 1779 01:27:39.680 --> 01:27:43.199 Colorado if either end of the transaction you were on 1780 01:27:43.279 --> 01:27:44.199 you might go to jail. 1781 01:27:44.399 --> 01:27:46.640 In Texas, I know you would have went to jail. Well, 1782 01:27:46.640 --> 01:27:49.680 if it's a felony, well, yeah, regard well in Texas. 1783 01:27:49.680 --> 01:27:50.960 So whatever. 1784 01:27:51.199 --> 01:27:53.119 I want to get out of the lane here. My 1785 01:27:53.239 --> 01:27:56.239 point is if you broke the law, but since then 1786 01:27:56.520 --> 01:28:00.920 the law completely changed where buying marijuana is not illegal. 1787 01:28:01.439 --> 01:28:04.159 I mean, would that actually be a strike hold on Dan? 1788 01:28:04.279 --> 01:28:06.239 I mean, can they go back and use that under 1789 01:28:06.279 --> 01:28:08.239 this law? That's what Dan's asking. 1790 01:28:08.800 --> 01:28:12.039 So the answer is I don't know, yeah, because I 1791 01:28:12.039 --> 01:28:13.800 haven't read the bill in detail. 1792 01:28:14.199 --> 01:28:17.199 What I'm telling you is though that it was touted 1793 01:28:17.600 --> 01:28:21.720 as you know, supporting gun owners, you know, Second Amendment, 1794 01:28:22.159 --> 01:28:25.600 but the people that fought it were really the Second 1795 01:28:25.600 --> 01:28:26.600 Amendment advocates. 1796 01:28:26.680 --> 01:28:27.239 Yeah, I got you. 1797 01:28:27.520 --> 01:28:30.640 So I don't know the details of it, but what 1798 01:28:30.720 --> 01:28:33.800 I know is it was getting sold to Bell of Goods. 1799 01:28:34.239 --> 01:28:38.680 It appears it sounds Dan, I mean, you're going to 1800 01:28:38.800 --> 01:28:39.640 have to go read it. 1801 01:28:39.680 --> 01:28:42.079 Does this have to do with you directly? Did you 1802 01:28:42.159 --> 01:28:45.039 actually buy two pounds of dope allegedly? 1803 01:28:46.039 --> 01:28:46.439 Did what? 1804 01:28:46.520 --> 01:28:46.720 Now? 1805 01:28:46.840 --> 01:28:50.479 Did you buy dope? You said dope? Marijuana? Did you 1806 01:28:50.520 --> 01:28:51.600 buy some years ago? 1807 01:28:51.720 --> 01:28:54.359 Or what pounds of marijuana? I know a guy that did, 1808 01:28:55.039 --> 01:28:58.199 and he says it's okay for him to have a gun. 1809 01:28:58.279 --> 01:29:01.199 Now, Yeah, maybe he can. That's very possible. I mean, 1810 01:29:01.239 --> 01:29:03.880 my god, this state can go buy marijuana all the time. 1811 01:29:04.199 --> 01:29:06.800 I would call. In fact, I bet if you called. 1812 01:29:06.600 --> 01:29:09.760 Over to Marco's guy there right, or called Joseph Flu's era, 1813 01:29:10.079 --> 01:29:12.680 call a criminal defense attorney if it's a question. 1814 01:29:13.000 --> 01:29:14.880 But I'll tell you this, if you're not sure if 1815 01:29:14.880 --> 01:29:16.880 you should have a gun or not, that means you 1816 01:29:16.880 --> 01:29:19.119 shouldn't have one. You probably shouldn't have one. 1817 01:29:19.159 --> 01:29:21.880 And by the way, the gentleman that Dan is referring 1818 01:29:21.920 --> 01:29:25.439 to with a two pound alleged purchase, it's not the 1819 01:29:25.479 --> 01:29:28.000 fact that what he did back then is legal now. 1820 01:29:28.319 --> 01:29:31.159 It's the fact that he has a felony conviction that 1821 01:29:31.239 --> 01:29:34.159 makes him a prohibited person for the purposes of exercising 1822 01:29:34.159 --> 01:29:34.840 his second Amendment. 1823 01:29:34.960 --> 01:29:35.119 Right. 1824 01:29:35.239 --> 01:29:39.039 That's what I was asking Marco is that if I 1825 01:29:39.079 --> 01:29:41.439 don't care if it's marijuana, I don't care what the 1826 01:29:41.600 --> 01:29:44.800 law is. But if the law is changed to where 1827 01:29:44.840 --> 01:29:48.720 something that was illegal is now not illegal and you 1828 01:29:48.800 --> 01:29:51.960 had a conviction of it, does that still count as 1829 01:29:51.960 --> 01:29:53.680 a strike you. 1830 01:29:53.760 --> 01:29:56.359 So the answer is yes, okay in a lot of cases. 1831 01:29:56.439 --> 01:29:58.800 But if you want specifics, you need to invite me 1832 01:29:58.840 --> 01:29:59.479 back soon. 1833 01:29:59.439 --> 01:30:01.520 With the guy. Can you schunge it? 1834 01:30:01.560 --> 01:30:05.279 Answer is that something a criminal defense attorney could get 1835 01:30:05.279 --> 01:30:06.960 expunged because now it's not. 1836 01:30:06.960 --> 01:30:09.000 Illegal, but you got to pay for it and go 1837 01:30:09.039 --> 01:30:09.760 through the hoops. 1838 01:30:09.800 --> 01:30:09.960 You know. 1839 01:30:10.119 --> 01:30:17.399 A sponge is an interesting word. Yeah, okay, because you know, maybe. 1840 01:30:17.119 --> 01:30:21.199 Some employers, you know, they run a criminal background and 1841 01:30:21.279 --> 01:30:22.359 it doesn't show up, right. 1842 01:30:22.439 --> 01:30:24.840 Yeah, but I'm not so sure that takes it off 1843 01:30:24.880 --> 01:30:25.359 the CBI. 1844 01:30:26.159 --> 01:30:26.359 You know. 1845 01:30:26.439 --> 01:30:28.760 No, but once again, does account as a strike. I'd 1846 01:30:28.760 --> 01:30:30.760 love to know the answer. Yeah, if it's a felony 1847 01:30:30.800 --> 01:30:34.720 conviction that stays on your record until it's expunged, yeah, 1848 01:30:34.760 --> 01:30:35.640 so you'd have to now. 1849 01:30:35.720 --> 01:30:38.720 But then it goes to my question, something like this 1850 01:30:38.920 --> 01:30:41.479 with marijuana. And here's the deal though, what did he 1851 01:30:41.520 --> 01:30:43.880 say two hundred pounds when he pounds? Well, I don't 1852 01:30:43.880 --> 01:30:46.720 think you can buy two pounds, actually, I think legally 1853 01:30:46.760 --> 01:30:49.680 you can only buy announcer or something. Scott you would know. 1854 01:30:51.039 --> 01:30:54.239 But it doesn't matter because in this very very narrow 1855 01:30:54.319 --> 01:30:56.800 case that damn called about, Yeah, it was a conviction 1856 01:30:56.920 --> 01:31:01.039 for two pounds. Yeah, and that's a felony and so yeah, 1857 01:31:01.039 --> 01:31:02.920 maybe today you can Even if you could buy two 1858 01:31:02.920 --> 01:31:05.319 pounds legally today, it doesn't change the fact that this 1859 01:31:05.439 --> 01:31:07.359 poor man was convicted of felony. 1860 01:31:07.000 --> 01:31:08.880 But he could probably. I'm saying he could probably get 1861 01:31:08.920 --> 01:31:11.199 it off his record. Well, I have no idea that 1862 01:31:11.239 --> 01:31:11.560 would be. 1863 01:31:11.600 --> 01:31:13.840 When Marco returns on Monday, it would be great to 1864 01:31:13.880 --> 01:31:18.279 get his criminal associate's opinion on how hard it would 1865 01:31:18.279 --> 01:31:20.399 be to expunge it and how much that would cost 1866 01:31:20.439 --> 01:31:22.439 and what the odds are. But I can tell you 1867 01:31:22.439 --> 01:31:24.079 there are a lot of federal cases that are working 1868 01:31:24.119 --> 01:31:26.720 their way through the system now that will make it 1869 01:31:26.840 --> 01:31:32.079 legal for non violent felons to restore their Second Amendment right. 1870 01:31:32.079 --> 01:31:35.000 I think that's without expungement. That's a wonderful thing. 1871 01:31:35.159 --> 01:31:37.239 Because there's a guy, there's a case of the Supreme 1872 01:31:37.279 --> 01:31:40.119 Court right now. A guy was convicted in the seventies 1873 01:31:40.159 --> 01:31:43.760 for food stamp fraud, food stamp fraud, stamp fraud because 1874 01:31:43.800 --> 01:31:47.760 he understated his income on a food stamp application in 1875 01:31:47.880 --> 01:31:52.239 nineteen seventies. It and he isssuing the Feds to restore 1876 01:31:52.359 --> 01:31:57.159 his Second Amendment rights. So that is very advanced right now, 1877 01:31:57.199 --> 01:31:59.079 and it will have national implications. 1878 01:31:59.359 --> 01:32:02.520 They will, they will the Supremes here this year. 1879 01:32:03.119 --> 01:32:06.159 Uh, I don't know, it's it's it's it's either if 1880 01:32:06.159 --> 01:32:08.880 they're either petitioned for third or it's just about to 1881 01:32:08.880 --> 01:32:09.600 be petitioned first. 1882 01:32:09.600 --> 01:32:11.680 All right, three oh three seven one three a two 1883 01:32:11.720 --> 01:32:13.479 five five.

That three 1908 01:33:23.439 --> 01:33:28.439 percent we hear about think about that three percent. Three percent. 1909 01:33:28.760 --> 01:33:31.479 The cancer didn't spread, the surgeon got every bit of 1910 01:33:31.479 --> 01:33:34.279 it out of there, and he's going to be back 1911 01:33:34.319 --> 01:33:37.560 to normal soon. So if anybody's been wondering why things 1912 01:33:37.560 --> 01:33:39.520 have been a little different, if you've been listening to 1913 01:33:39.560 --> 01:33:41.600 the show for a long time, now you get the idea. 1914 01:33:42.039 --> 01:33:44.840 I have the entire story, though, if you want to 1915 01:33:44.840 --> 01:33:48.359 hear it. The first segment of the show from January third, 1916 01:33:48.439 --> 01:33:51.239 where he told us, Suzanne and I about what was 1917 01:33:51.279 --> 01:33:51.680 going on. 1918 01:33:51.760 --> 01:33:52.439 He was on a. 1919 01:33:52.640 --> 01:33:55.640 Trip back from Hawaii all the way through the surgery 1920 01:33:55.760 --> 01:34:00.520 yesterday that was extremely successful, and we are so and 1921 01:34:00.560 --> 01:34:03.520 we are so blessed that Tom is going to be 1922 01:34:03.520 --> 01:34:05.520 in our lives for a long time and I can 1923 01:34:05.560 --> 01:34:08.079 continue to aggravate him a lot. 1924 01:34:08.439 --> 01:34:10.279 If you listen to the show, you know what I'm saying. 1925 01:34:10.520 --> 01:34:12.319 So if you want to hear the entire story, and 1926 01:34:12.359 --> 01:34:15.039 it really is, it's a very scary story. When we 1927 01:34:15.079 --> 01:34:18.720 were talking about it's very emotional. In fact, most of 1928 01:34:18.760 --> 01:34:22.159 the crying Suzanne and I have done about time has 1929 01:34:22.199 --> 01:34:26.399 been very you know, very negative, very worrisome about the 1930 01:34:26.560 --> 01:34:30.039 entire thing up until the call from him literally this morning. 1931 01:34:30.439 --> 01:34:32.760 And if you want to hear about that, go to YouTube. 1932 01:34:33.119 --> 01:34:34.600 Type in Troubleshooter Network. 1933 01:34:34.600 --> 01:34:37.560 When the show's over and this show's posted, go back 1934 01:34:37.600 --> 01:34:39.520 and just listening to the beginning of the show. 1935 01:34:39.720 --> 01:34:44.000 It's a heroic story. If you're religious, I mean to us, 1936 01:34:44.039 --> 01:34:48.000 it's a miracle. Three percent of anything. It's like winning 1937 01:34:48.079 --> 01:34:51.319 the good lottery, not the bad lottery. It's a horrible 1938 01:34:51.359 --> 01:34:55.479 thing when you google it. But everything's kosher. Man, everything's 1939 01:34:55.520 --> 01:34:57.760 cool as he gets. Now, let's do this three l 1940 01:34:57.800 --> 01:35:00.359 three seven one, three eight two five five on what 1941 01:35:00.479 --> 01:35:03.159 is going on? It says you have a foot issue. 1942 01:35:03.279 --> 01:35:06.319 You're working with deputy doc. Give me a little more information. 1943 01:35:07.920 --> 01:35:14.520 Yes, well, I went to Bunyon Cure Center in Little Ten. 1944 01:35:14.800 --> 01:35:18.239 I think I remember this. And what did Bunyan Cure Center? 1945 01:35:18.479 --> 01:35:20.479 Didn't they charge you quite a bit of money? What 1946 01:35:20.520 --> 01:35:21.119 did they do? 1947 01:35:22.800 --> 01:35:26.640 Well, they were supposed to fix my because my toes 1948 01:35:26.640 --> 01:35:32.720 were kind of crooked, yeah, and uncomfortable. And then I'm 1949 01:35:32.800 --> 01:35:37.159 in Loveland and I belonged to Banner Health and the 1950 01:35:37.239 --> 01:35:39.479 Banner Health doctor told me that he was going to 1951 01:35:39.520 --> 01:35:41.800 have in my right foot, he was going to have 1952 01:35:41.880 --> 01:35:44.239 to remove my second toe. 1953 01:35:44.600 --> 01:35:46.640 Oh my god, to clear. 1954 01:35:46.479 --> 01:35:49.720 Up my feet, and I disagreed with that. So then 1955 01:35:49.800 --> 01:35:54.800 I talked to Banner or Bunyon Center and they said, oh, no, 1956 01:35:55.279 --> 01:36:00.840 we can fix it. So they did their procedure and 1957 01:36:01.359 --> 01:36:03.800 it seemed like it was okay now and it. 1958 01:36:03.840 --> 01:36:06.960 Was actually paid. If I recall by insurance, your insurance 1959 01:36:07.000 --> 01:36:07.840 covered it, right. 1960 01:36:09.039 --> 01:36:09.600 Most of it? 1961 01:36:09.760 --> 01:36:10.840 Yeah, covered most of it. 1962 01:36:10.920 --> 01:36:15.479 But just because of the timeframe we have, if I recall, 1963 01:36:15.680 --> 01:36:17.680 the surgery was not successful. 1964 01:36:19.159 --> 01:36:22.560 No, And it seemed like it was pretty good at first, 1965 01:36:23.000 --> 01:36:26.720 but then now my right foot is worse than it 1966 01:36:26.800 --> 01:36:31.199 was before. And your doctor tried to call him, they 1967 01:36:31.239 --> 01:36:32.239 wouldn't talk to him. 1968 01:36:32.319 --> 01:36:33.880 Yeah, there's a lot of stuff with hippa. 1969 01:36:33.920 --> 01:36:36.520 If I was a doctor, I mean, I better have 1970 01:36:36.640 --> 01:36:38.840 a hippo form sign and people in front of you. 1971 01:36:39.000 --> 01:36:40.680 It's terrifying to even think about. 1972 01:36:41.279 --> 01:36:45.079 But the foot guy is not a doctor. Yeah, he's 1973 01:36:45.159 --> 01:36:46.600 just a foot guy. 1974 01:36:46.760 --> 01:36:49.079 It doesn't matter that hippa still falls under that. But 1975 01:36:49.159 --> 01:36:52.159 don what is your your goal is to what? Why 1976 01:36:52.199 --> 01:36:55.199 can't you go to another doctor now and try to 1977 01:36:55.199 --> 01:36:57.479 get it fixed. Are you saying your insurance won't cover 1978 01:36:57.520 --> 01:36:57.880 it now? 1979 01:36:59.319 --> 01:37:01.680 No, I'm sure I don't know about that. 1980 01:37:02.079 --> 01:37:03.119 But my foot is. 1981 01:37:03.319 --> 01:37:05.800 I'll send you a picture of my foot and tell 1982 01:37:05.840 --> 01:37:06.800 you how bad it is. 1983 01:37:06.880 --> 01:37:07.199 You know what. 1984 01:37:07.239 --> 01:37:08.720 I do want to see a picture of it, but 1985 01:37:08.760 --> 01:37:10.119 I'm trying to figure out here. 1986 01:37:10.359 --> 01:37:11.359 I'll send it to you. 1987 01:37:11.439 --> 01:37:14.600 Don and Kelly will get that email, give you an 1988 01:37:14.640 --> 01:37:15.359 email to send it. 1989 01:37:15.439 --> 01:37:16.840 I do want to look at it.

But tell 2179 01:47:09.079 --> 01:47:10.560 us about the case you took. 2180 01:47:11.399 --> 01:47:13.960 Well, first of all, you get you get admitted in 2181 01:47:14.199 --> 01:47:20.640 another jurisdiction through a motion that a state attorney files. 2182 01:47:20.680 --> 01:47:24.000 In other words, I have to get a California lawyer 2183 01:47:24.079 --> 01:47:24.439 to file. 2184 01:47:24.560 --> 01:47:28.479 Emotion, oh almost like on your behalf right, and so 2185 01:47:28.960 --> 01:47:33.640 saying pro hack VICI, pro hack VICI. Yes, three words 2186 01:47:33.880 --> 01:47:34.439 is Latin. 2187 01:47:35.199 --> 01:47:37.119 Don't ask me what they mean, but I think it 2188 01:47:37.199 --> 01:47:40.319 means something like one case at a time, so I 2189 01:47:40.359 --> 01:47:44.520 can get admitted in another jurisdiction one case at a time. 2190 01:47:44.560 --> 01:47:46.399 And I've done that. You know, I practice all over 2191 01:47:46.399 --> 01:47:48.640 the country. But basically what you're saying, though, is someone 2192 01:47:48.680 --> 01:47:52.319 has to vouch for you. Well, you get local co console. 2193 01:47:52.520 --> 01:47:54.199 I mean you have to, though I don't think they 2194 01:47:54.279 --> 01:47:57.199 peaky square or anything, but you have to. 2195 01:47:57.520 --> 01:47:58.359 Yes, you have to. 2196 01:47:58.760 --> 01:48:01.880 You have to get a license Attorney's a foul emotion, 2197 01:48:02.359 --> 01:48:06.560 but really, if you've been practicing for more than five years, 2198 01:48:07.560 --> 01:48:10.920 and you're in good standing, you know. For example, I'm 2199 01:48:10.960 --> 01:48:12.279 in good standing. 2200 01:48:11.840 --> 01:48:15.319 With the Colorado Bar Association, right, Yeah, so they'll check that. 2201 01:48:15.600 --> 01:48:17.920 And if you're in good standing and you've. 2202 01:48:17.720 --> 01:48:20.840 Got a motion for pro hac VICI, there's no reason 2203 01:48:20.880 --> 01:48:21.840 that they would deny it. 2204 01:48:22.319 --> 01:48:25.800 So the only thing I know about this is a 2205 01:48:25.840 --> 01:48:29.840 movie called My Cousin Vinnie. He's not my cousin, Yeah, 2206 01:48:29.880 --> 01:48:33.880 And he went and practiced alongside a Herman Munster and 2207 01:48:34.119 --> 01:48:37.000 basically I think it was Joe PESHI wasn't it and. 2208 01:48:37.119 --> 01:48:38.039 It was a great movie. 2209 01:48:38.079 --> 01:48:41.399 But he went from New York and was practicing somewhere else, 2210 01:48:41.640 --> 01:48:43.479 and they kept trying to look him up on the bar. 2211 01:48:43.560 --> 01:48:45.640 But I don't think he even passed the bar yet. 2212 01:48:45.920 --> 01:48:48.399 But I didn't realize you had to have another council, 2213 01:48:48.680 --> 01:48:51.079 so that guy will be with you or that woman 2214 01:48:51.159 --> 01:48:52.199 will be with you. 2215 01:48:52.840 --> 01:48:56.079 In the trial the whole time, you know, not necessarily. 2216 01:48:56.840 --> 01:48:59.199 So when I went out there, which was just this 2217 01:48:59.279 --> 01:49:02.720 past weekend, yeah, we were talking, right, and uh, I 2218 01:49:02.800 --> 01:49:06.520 was interviewing lawyers. So it's not like I'm getting someone 2219 01:49:06.560 --> 01:49:10.039 to do me a favor. Yeah, I'm interviewing them. You 2220 01:49:10.119 --> 01:49:12.239 need someone out there, Well, well. 2221 01:49:12.039 --> 01:49:14.680 I need to know that they know what they're doing. Oh, 2222 01:49:14.760 --> 01:49:17.600 I see what you're said. They practice like I practice. 2223 01:49:17.640 --> 01:49:20.960 Now, if I would have just wanted a referral fee, 2224 01:49:22.119 --> 01:49:25.960 which is not ethical in Colorado, but it is ethical 2225 01:49:26.000 --> 01:49:30.520 in most other states, which is you know, confounding. You know, 2226 01:49:30.720 --> 01:49:34.880 depending on what city you're in, it's ethical or it's unethical. 2227 01:49:34.960 --> 01:49:35.600 Yeah, I gotcha. 2228 01:49:36.000 --> 01:49:38.720 But anyway, if I wanted a referral fee, you know, 2229 01:49:38.800 --> 01:49:42.960 I could just refer the case. And you know, I 2230 01:49:43.000 --> 01:49:46.439 want to take the depositions, want to I want to 2231 01:49:46.479 --> 01:49:47.760 do the discovery. 2232 01:49:49.000 --> 01:49:50.680 I am coming. 2233 01:49:50.479 --> 01:49:53.760 After these people. They killed this kid. They murdered the 2234 01:49:53.960 --> 01:49:54.600 young man. 2235 01:49:54.680 --> 01:49:57.000 Killed the kid. Let's get to the meat of it. 2236 01:49:57.239 --> 01:50:02.439 The two off duty LAPD Los Angeles Police Department. They 2237 01:50:02.439 --> 01:50:06.000 were two off duty cops serving as they were moonlighting 2238 01:50:06.840 --> 01:50:11.880 doing some security work for the Metro Transit Authority at MTA. 2239 01:50:12.880 --> 01:50:16.119 And so they they're on the train down. 2240 01:50:15.960 --> 01:50:20.600 In the subway and my the decedent, the guy that 2241 01:50:20.640 --> 01:50:25.119 they shot and killed and killed, he was mentalalial Okay, 2242 01:50:25.159 --> 01:50:30.159 he has some he has some problems. Right, So, prior 2243 01:50:30.199 --> 01:50:33.920 to them getting the in the station, he pulls the 2244 01:50:33.960 --> 01:50:34.920 emergency stop. 2245 01:50:35.800 --> 01:50:39.920 Okay, he has some paranol on the train. Yeah, okay, 2246 01:50:40.920 --> 01:50:45.640 so a tussel w ensues. Not with these is it 2247 01:50:45.680 --> 01:50:50.039 with these off duty officers, Yes, got it. Tussel windsues. 2248 01:50:50.439 --> 01:50:53.600 Uh, he runs into an area's trying to get away 2249 01:50:53.600 --> 01:50:56.520 from him. So he runs into an area that's not public, 2250 01:50:57.039 --> 01:50:59.840 right down the subway, like the wrong way. 2251 01:51:00.840 --> 01:51:03.119 You know, there's probably what you know, I haven't seen 2252 01:51:03.159 --> 01:51:04.399 the footage yet, but. 2253 01:51:04.399 --> 01:51:07.119 I'm assuming it's like a you know, twelve foot that 2254 01:51:07.279 --> 01:51:10.159 the train rolls by, but you know, it's a platform, 2255 01:51:10.239 --> 01:51:12.000 but it's not public. 2256 01:51:12.920 --> 01:51:14.000 So he runs out there. 2257 01:51:14.640 --> 01:51:18.399 They get him again. They pepper spray him, and he 2258 01:51:18.520 --> 01:51:21.039 goes to the ground. I guess when they pepper sprayed him, 2259 01:51:21.359 --> 01:51:22.279 and he poured out a. 2260 01:51:22.239 --> 01:51:26.279 Pocket knife, oh boy, and he swung it and he 2261 01:51:26.439 --> 01:51:28.279 caught one of the guards in the leg. 2262 01:51:28.600 --> 01:51:32.479 And then that's when they let him up. No, then 2263 01:51:32.520 --> 01:51:35.800 he so he got away again. Right now. 2264 01:51:35.960 --> 01:51:37.800 It was just a flesh wound. I mean, the guy 2265 01:51:38.239 --> 01:51:41.560 didn't require an ambulance. I mean, you know, later on, 2266 01:51:41.840 --> 01:51:44.479 after they killed him, he walked across the street to 2267 01:51:44.560 --> 01:51:45.119 the hospital. 2268 01:51:45.159 --> 01:51:47.159 So you know, it was a pocket knife. It wasn't 2269 01:51:47.199 --> 01:51:47.960 a bad cut. 2270 01:51:48.479 --> 01:51:52.840 But anyway, so he runs again and he's going up upstairs, 2271 01:51:54.399 --> 01:51:57.840 you know, still non public, and there's things up there 2272 01:51:57.840 --> 01:52:00.199 that you can open and get out on the street. Right, 2273 01:52:00.920 --> 01:52:04.560 And so originally the story was that he turns around 2274 01:52:04.560 --> 01:52:09.560 with his pocket knife and lunged at these off duty cops, 2275 01:52:09.640 --> 01:52:11.199 got it, and that's when. 2276 01:52:11.079 --> 01:52:15.760 They shot him. That was the story. The video shows different. 2277 01:52:15.960 --> 01:52:19.880 I don't have the video yet, but I got the 2278 01:52:20.039 --> 01:52:25.840 coroner's report which shows that was gunshot. There was two 2279 01:52:25.920 --> 01:52:33.319 gunshot wounds. Gunshot one gunshot two gunshot. One hit him. 2280 01:52:32.039 --> 01:52:36.159 Just above the buttocks, got it so the back and 2281 01:52:36.399 --> 01:52:37.680 exited his shoulder. 2282 01:52:38.159 --> 01:52:41.960 Wow, So what does that mean? Means he was shot 2283 01:52:41.960 --> 01:52:45.119 in the back basically, and he was shot up Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, 2284 01:52:45.159 --> 01:52:48.640 of course, right, the trajectory he had to be above them. 2285 01:52:48.760 --> 01:52:49.560 So what was two? 2286 01:52:50.319 --> 01:52:53.760 Two was another one from a different angle, but still 2287 01:52:53.880 --> 01:52:57.319 entered around the same area and the trajectory was the same. 2288 01:52:57.439 --> 01:52:59.279 So it was the other cop got it. 2289 01:52:59.399 --> 01:53:01.279 You know, once are shooting the other one, you know, 2290 01:53:01.880 --> 01:53:03.399 takes liberties, I guess. 2291 01:53:03.520 --> 01:53:06.000 So you got to see the evidence and basically kind 2292 01:53:06.000 --> 01:53:07.079 of that's the next step. 2293 01:53:07.119 --> 01:53:09.039 You got to see what's going on. I mean, we 2294 01:53:09.119 --> 01:53:11.600 know they lied. Now we'll say that again, we know 2295 01:53:12.119 --> 01:53:16.000 they lied. It's it's in the coroner's report. It's their 2296 01:53:16.119 --> 01:53:18.840 narrative and then his findings. 2297 01:53:19.000 --> 01:53:23.159 Right, so one document shows inconsistence. 2298 01:53:22.399 --> 01:53:25.520 Well they have because they were off duty. They probably don't. Honestly, 2299 01:53:25.560 --> 01:53:27.680 they probably don't have any kind of not a dash 2300 01:53:27.720 --> 01:53:28.439 can but a. 2301 01:53:28.439 --> 01:53:34.199 Human body candy. We're hoping they do. We're hoping that 2302 01:53:34.239 --> 01:53:38.600 they're subway footage. Yeah, we want obviously, and. 2303 01:53:38.520 --> 01:53:41.439 You're probably a subway footage maybe, but it's in a 2304 01:53:41.520 --> 01:53:44.039 non public area, so we're not sure what we're going 2305 01:53:44.119 --> 01:53:48.039 to get. What we got so far upon inquiry without 2306 01:53:48.079 --> 01:53:53.239 a lawsuit pending, was he runs at us, we shot him. 2307 01:53:53.359 --> 01:53:53.640 Wow. 2308 01:53:54.079 --> 01:53:56.600 Okay, so that's that's where we are. And I don't 2309 01:53:56.600 --> 01:53:57.600 want to take up too much. 2310 01:53:57.479 --> 01:54:00.520 Time, but it's interesting as hell. Let's take a quick break. 2311 01:54:00.680 --> 01:54:03.479 Let's do that.

What we were talking about earlier is when 2337 01:55:37.680 --> 01:55:40.079 you get a quote for your roof and it's twenty 2338 01:55:40.119 --> 01:55:43.000 five thousand dollars, if you can get it done for. 2339 01:55:43.039 --> 01:55:47.560 Ten, mister Major says you're not allowed to do that, 2340 01:55:47.640 --> 01:55:50.399 you can't keep the extra money. So Brian, is he 2341 01:55:50.479 --> 01:55:51.439 up that you hit the button? 2342 01:55:51.560 --> 01:55:51.680 Well? 2343 01:55:51.680 --> 01:55:53.640 No, how do I do that? Here? Hey, Brian? 2344 01:55:53.760 --> 01:55:56.840 So here here what's the premise of the conversation we 2345 01:55:56.880 --> 01:56:00.479 had last hour. If Excel Roofing comes out, tells me, 2346 01:56:00.960 --> 01:56:03.239 or it tells my insurance company it's a twenty five 2347 01:56:03.279 --> 01:56:06.119 thousand dollars roof and they start doing it and it 2348 01:56:06.159 --> 01:56:08.840 only turns out to be fifteen thousand. But I got 2349 01:56:08.840 --> 01:56:11.800 a twenty five thousand dollars check from my insurance company? 2350 01:56:11.960 --> 01:56:13.800 Can I just keep the money? Is that? Is that 2351 01:56:13.840 --> 01:56:16.960 a fair enough way to state a gentlemen? Yeah, I 2352 01:56:16.960 --> 01:56:17.800 would say yes. 2353 01:56:18.479 --> 01:56:20.640 I would tell you that's not usually how it works. 2354 01:56:20.680 --> 01:56:22.800 Almost ninety nine percent of the time I would say 2355 01:56:22.840 --> 01:56:25.039 that's not how it works. They'll go they're going to 2356 01:56:25.079 --> 01:56:28.399 give you a check for actual cash value, and so 2357 01:56:28.800 --> 01:56:31.279 they're going to give you a much lesser check than 2358 01:56:31.279 --> 01:56:33.399 the twenty five thousand dollars. They're going to give you 2359 01:56:33.520 --> 01:56:37.880 depreciated value. And then once you get the roof replaced, 2360 01:56:37.960 --> 01:56:39.920 you send them the receipt. 2361 01:56:39.479 --> 01:56:43.359 And the receipt from Excell would show fifteen thousand, and. 2362 01:56:43.279 --> 01:56:45.239 Then that's all you're getting. You're going to get made 2363 01:56:45.279 --> 01:56:48.079 whole up to that fifteen minus you're deductible of course, 2364 01:56:48.319 --> 01:56:52.560 so it's not really something that happens very often. 2365 01:56:53.359 --> 01:56:53.960 I guess. 2366 01:56:54.039 --> 01:56:57.039 I guess to clarify, the actual question would be this 2367 01:56:57.600 --> 01:57:01.279 if if you have an insurance claim and they pay 2368 01:57:01.319 --> 01:57:03.359 you X amount of money, I don't care what exes, 2369 01:57:03.399 --> 01:57:06.000 we'll use twenty five thousand, and you have all the 2370 01:57:06.079 --> 01:57:10.920 repairs done for less when you turn in all those receipts. Now, granted, 2371 01:57:11.039 --> 01:57:14.359 you could go ahead and do phony receipts and stuff, 2372 01:57:14.359 --> 01:57:18.359 but that's insurance fraud. The insurance company only owes you 2373 01:57:18.760 --> 01:57:20.760 how much it costs to fix the problem. 2374 01:57:21.119 --> 01:57:22.520 That's basically what I'm saying. 2375 01:57:23.159 --> 01:57:25.840 Yes now, but I'm going to tell you there are 2376 01:57:25.920 --> 01:57:30.079 plenty of instances that I've seen, especially in the old ding, 2377 01:57:30.439 --> 01:57:33.319 when they used to pay replacement cost, where they would 2378 01:57:33.319 --> 01:57:35.840 pay the full amount, people would get it done for less, 2379 01:57:35.920 --> 01:57:37.960 and they would not give it back. There's nothing in 2380 01:57:38.000 --> 01:57:40.720 the policy that states you have to. It's not insurance fraud. 2381 01:57:40.760 --> 01:57:42.439 In other words, got it. But if you were to 2382 01:57:42.479 --> 01:57:44.359 call the company and say, hey, I got an extra 2383 01:57:44.399 --> 01:57:45.760 five thousand, or if. 2384 01:57:45.680 --> 01:57:47.840 You were to send in bogus or if you were 2385 01:57:47.920 --> 01:57:49.800 descend in of course bogus receipts. 2386 01:57:49.920 --> 01:57:52.720 But Mark, under this scenario, there are no receipts to 2387 01:57:52.800 --> 01:57:55.600 send in. So's the scenario that caused the friend with 2388 01:57:55.640 --> 01:57:59.680 a disagreement between you and me was is it insurance 2389 01:57:59.720 --> 01:58:02.920 fraud to get paid twenty five thousand for say, water damage, 2390 01:58:02.960 --> 01:58:06.119 for example, and you get the check, you cash it, 2391 01:58:06.479 --> 01:58:09.039 and then sometime later you get all the repairs done 2392 01:58:09.079 --> 01:58:11.920 for ten thousand dollars. First of all, you don't have 2393 01:58:11.960 --> 01:58:14.039 to send in any receipts now, because the matter has 2394 01:58:14.079 --> 01:58:17.279 been settled with your insurance company. And I said, hey, 2395 01:58:17.479 --> 01:58:21.000 the rest is your profit that you're entitled to. And 2396 01:58:21.039 --> 01:58:24.239 you said that sounds like insurance fraud. So Brian, but 2397 01:58:24.680 --> 01:58:25.720 he one of us is right. 2398 01:58:25.680 --> 01:58:28.720 Well no, but he clarified to both of us it 2399 01:58:28.800 --> 01:58:31.800 simply doesn't happen that way. What happens is you get 2400 01:58:31.800 --> 01:58:35.199 the actual cash value, which could be five thousand out 2401 01:58:35.239 --> 01:58:38.039 of a twenty thousand dollars claim. Then you have to 2402 01:58:38.079 --> 01:58:40.800 send in the receipts, and if you don't phony up 2403 01:58:40.840 --> 01:58:43.520 the receipts, you're only going to get whatever the receipts 2404 01:58:43.520 --> 01:58:44.079 add up to. 2405 01:58:44.479 --> 01:58:47.680 If that's how the claim was handled by insurance adjustment. 2406 01:58:47.840 --> 01:58:49.640 That's how they're all handled, well, not all so. 2407 01:58:49.760 --> 01:58:52.000 For example, I can give you a real life example 2408 01:58:52.039 --> 01:58:54.800 that happened only nine months ago. A very good friend 2409 01:58:54.800 --> 01:58:56.720 of mine who lives just a couple of blocks from here, 2410 01:58:57.159 --> 01:59:01.520 had water damage. An AC system broke down. She had 2411 01:59:01.640 --> 01:59:05.520 thirty two thousand dollars in damages. The insurance company actually 2412 01:59:05.560 --> 01:59:07.840 sent her the check. They didn't even make it payable 2413 01:59:07.840 --> 01:59:09.640 to her in the mortgage company. They just sent her 2414 01:59:09.680 --> 01:59:12.960 the check. She had the repairs done for approximately fifteen 2415 01:59:13.000 --> 01:59:18.079 thousand bucks, very high quality repairs, and she pocketed the process. 2416 01:59:18.079 --> 01:59:20.119 Why in a case like that would that go down 2417 01:59:20.199 --> 01:59:20.760 like cab. 2418 01:59:20.560 --> 01:59:23.760 Brian, Well, I mean, I don't know why they would 2419 01:59:23.760 --> 01:59:26.640 have been so drastically different from what they estimate the 2420 01:59:26.680 --> 01:59:29.119 damage to be versus what she actually had done. But 2421 01:59:29.239 --> 01:59:32.520 I will answer your question. It's not insurance fraud. 2422 01:59:32.680 --> 01:59:33.359 Yeah, thank you. 2423 01:59:33.720 --> 01:59:36.039 And I can tell you why why the check was 2424 01:59:36.079 --> 01:59:38.600 so huge. It's kind of an interesting side story to this. 2425 01:59:39.199 --> 01:59:44.199 She initially signed a contract with a remodeling restoration contractor 2426 01:59:44.640 --> 01:59:48.680 who fought the insurance company. They basically conducted claims adjusting 2427 01:59:48.760 --> 01:59:52.239 service on her behalf. They inflated this claim because they 2428 01:59:52.279 --> 01:59:53.720 expected to pocket the entirety. 2429 01:59:53.880 --> 01:59:54.640 That's what Matten does. 2430 01:59:54.720 --> 01:59:57.920 But then it turned out there, but Matt is an 2431 01:59:57.920 --> 01:59:58.880 insurance adjuster. 2432 01:59:59.319 --> 02:00:01.319 This was a co tractor, right. 2433 02:00:01.560 --> 02:00:04.039 So they inflated this claim way beyond what it's actually 2434 02:00:04.039 --> 02:00:06.800 going to cost. But then after she asked me to 2435 02:00:06.840 --> 02:00:09.079 help with some research into this contractor, I found they 2436 02:00:09.079 --> 02:00:12.159 don't even have a contractor's license in this jurisdiction. 2437 02:00:12.279 --> 02:00:15.479 What he just described though, Brian, that is insurance fraud. 2438 02:00:15.600 --> 02:00:18.279 Now I'm might to bring some clarity to this. Go ahead, 2439 02:00:18.319 --> 02:00:18.960 go ahead, Mark. 2440 02:00:19.479 --> 02:00:24.279 So, first of all, the insurance policy requires the insurance company, 2441 02:00:24.920 --> 02:00:27.600 if it's an ACV policy, actual cash value. 2442 02:00:27.920 --> 02:00:30.640 That's replacement cost minus appreciation. 2443 02:00:31.840 --> 02:00:37.239 Sometimes you can buy a replacement cost coverage for your roof. Sure, however, 2444 02:00:38.000 --> 02:00:42.199 when you sustain that damage, and that thirty two thousand 2445 02:00:42.279 --> 02:00:46.199 dollars wasn't necessarily inflated because they have books. 2446 02:00:46.199 --> 02:00:48.760 Right, right, it wasn't inflated. And the I just meant 2447 02:00:48.760 --> 02:00:52.000 they went through so much detailed down over the retail 2448 02:00:52.239 --> 02:00:53.199 value of. 2449 02:00:53.199 --> 02:00:59.079 The repairs, and you bought insurance for the retail value 2450 02:00:59.520 --> 02:01:00.000 of the rep. 2451 02:01:00.279 --> 02:01:02.920 Which generally in homeowners that's what you have unless you 2452 02:01:02.960 --> 02:01:03.680 have an ACV. 2453 02:01:04.079 --> 02:01:07.199 Let's say you have a fifty thousand dollars car. Yeah, 2454 02:01:07.479 --> 02:01:09.960 and you don't have a loan on it. Yeah, you 2455 02:01:10.000 --> 02:01:12.239 don't have to cover the car, no, of course. So 2456 02:01:12.359 --> 02:01:15.800 you run that thing into a telephone pole and you 2457 02:01:15.840 --> 02:01:18.960 do eight thousand dollars worth of damage. They got to 2458 02:01:19.000 --> 02:01:22.399 give you that eight thousand dollars because you bought the 2459 02:01:22.439 --> 02:01:25.239 insurance to cover the repairs. 2460 02:01:25.319 --> 02:01:27.279 Now there's no loan on that car. 2461 02:01:27.359 --> 02:01:29.560 You can put eight thousand dollars in your pocket and 2462 02:01:29.680 --> 02:01:32.439 drive it forever with that wreck front fender. 2463 02:01:32.520 --> 02:01:35.600 Sure, right, same concept. 2464 02:01:35.079 --> 02:01:38.039 Claim on that you're not getting another claim and getting paid. 2465 02:01:37.840 --> 02:01:42.359 For it is the point. Yeah, yeah, that's right. You can't. 2466 02:01:42.479 --> 02:01:45.199 You can't claim. You know, you can't. You can't create 2467 02:01:45.239 --> 02:01:48.720 a dupleish claim for what he's saying is you take well, 2468 02:01:48.800 --> 02:01:51.520 hail damage is where it happens. Mostly there's hail damage, 2469 02:01:51.520 --> 02:01:54.079 You get a check from your insurance company. You never 2470 02:01:54.199 --> 02:01:56.119 fix it because you're like, I'm going to just put 2471 02:01:56.159 --> 02:01:59.439 it in the bank. And then a year later there's 2472 02:01:59.479 --> 02:02:02.680 another storm and you might get a little more damage 2473 02:02:02.680 --> 02:02:05.520 on the vehicle, but you sure can't tell your insurance 2474 02:02:05.560 --> 02:02:08.159 company you never fixed it the first time. Absolutely. 2475 02:02:08.239 --> 02:02:11.119 In fact, if you're with the same carrier, they'll pull 2476 02:02:11.279 --> 02:02:15.399 that prior quote right back up show. And they got 2477 02:02:15.399 --> 02:02:19.000 a circle on the photographs the areas that are damaged 2478 02:02:19.039 --> 02:02:20.439 on a roof, so they'll know. 2479 02:02:20.800 --> 02:02:23.520 So, Brian, what we've actually learned here is two things. 2480 02:02:23.560 --> 02:02:30.960 One Marco and Mark were correct and Deputy Dimitri was incorrect. 2481 02:02:31.239 --> 02:02:32.880 I mean, that's how I'm a guessed. 2482 02:02:33.119 --> 02:02:37.039 I'm a guest, so I just I'm silent radio silence here. 2483 02:02:37.399 --> 02:02:40.720 All right, Hey, Brian, I do appreciate you coming on. Man. 2484 02:02:41.199 --> 02:02:44.560 You got it, You see it, man, And that's a listen, 2485 02:02:45.239 --> 02:02:48.920 Brian Burns. Compass insurance. I don't care if it's a 2486 02:02:48.960 --> 02:02:52.159 commercial policy like garage keepers like I used to have 2487 02:02:52.479 --> 02:02:57.000 workman's comp anything. I mean, even a professional coverage for 2488 02:02:57.039 --> 02:02:59.640 a doctor. I think that's a little different. But in 2489 02:02:59.720 --> 02:03:02.640 gen word, these guys sell every bit of insurance you 2490 02:03:02.680 --> 02:03:07.199 can imagine. They shop everything for Suzanne and I every 2491 02:03:07.239 --> 02:03:10.119 single year to make sure we have the best coverage. 2492 02:03:10.159 --> 02:03:14.000 And we've used them for ten or fifteen years now. Marco, 2493 02:03:14.039 --> 02:03:15.000 we've got a minute, let's go. 2494 02:03:15.159 --> 02:03:17.399 We have time to go to Pete. Yeah, we got time, 2495 02:03:17.439 --> 02:03:19.560 real quick. Okay, Pete, you have to be brief, but 2496 02:03:19.640 --> 02:03:20.600 tell us what's going on. 2497 02:03:21.920 --> 02:03:22.640 Hey, real quick? 2498 02:03:23.199 --> 02:03:25.520 Time to replace the tires on the twenty twenty two 2499 02:03:25.960 --> 02:03:29.359 Tesla model. Why Mark Tesla and a tire guy do 2500 02:03:29.399 --> 02:03:32.359 you recommend just putting the good gear retlacing on the 2501 02:03:32.359 --> 02:03:32.840 same tire? 2502 02:03:33.000 --> 02:03:36.279 What did you How many miles did you get off 2503 02:03:36.359 --> 02:03:37.600 the original tires? 2504 02:03:38.920 --> 02:03:41.520 About thirty three thousand. Here's the deal. I got a 2505 02:03:41.560 --> 02:03:43.520 slow leak in the back and the ball down to 2506 02:03:43.680 --> 02:03:45.199 number one on the little thing, and then in the 2507 02:03:45.199 --> 02:03:47.159 front third four. So I figured the best thing to 2508 02:03:47.199 --> 02:03:48.520 do is replace all four of them. 2509 02:03:49.000 --> 02:03:50.640 Yeah, that's the best thing to do. 2510 02:03:50.760 --> 02:03:52.399 I mean during the summer you might get a little 2511 02:03:52.439 --> 02:03:54.640 mileage out of the ones that have four thirty seconds. 2512 02:03:54.640 --> 02:03:57.439 But it's an interesting thing. And I'm shocked you got 2513 02:03:57.479 --> 02:03:59.800 that many miles. I did too on my model lest 2514 02:04:00.079 --> 02:04:02.680 I literally got thirty two or thirty three thousand miles. 2515 02:04:02.920 --> 02:04:06.399 And because I got so many miles, I didn't play around. 2516 02:04:06.479 --> 02:04:10.039 I had Discount Tire actually ordered the exact same tires. 2517 02:04:10.279 --> 02:04:12.840 They took about three weeks to come in. What sucked. 2518 02:04:13.039 --> 02:04:15.119 But I wasn't in your position where I had to 2519 02:04:15.119 --> 02:04:18.199 replace one. I just knew we were getting down to 2520 02:04:18.319 --> 02:04:22.039 about two thirty seconds, so I would buy the exact same. 2521 02:04:21.920 --> 02:04:23.039 Ones on that vehicle. 2522 02:04:23.039 --> 02:04:26.119 If you literally got thirty three thousand, I would not 2523 02:04:26.319 --> 02:04:29.279 mess around because that's incredible on it? 2524 02:04:29.319 --> 02:04:30.079 Is it all? Weal? 2525 02:04:31.800 --> 02:04:36.359 Yes, Yeah, that's incredible on a two little motor kessela. 2526 02:04:36.439 --> 02:04:38.760 That's incredible. Man, thirty three thousand is great. 2527 02:04:38.800 --> 02:04:39.159 Dude. 2528 02:04:40.560 --> 02:04:42.560 You know they gave me a price for like twelve 2529 02:04:42.640 --> 02:04:44.560 hundred at this local place down the street. So I 2530 02:04:44.640 --> 02:04:46.359 just wanted to ask you, Yeah. 2531 02:04:46.199 --> 02:04:46.640 I do that. 2532 02:04:46.680 --> 02:04:50.000 I just i'd hold them to task and call discountancy 2533 02:04:50.039 --> 02:04:51.880 how much they are? I mean, why not unless you 2534 02:04:51.960 --> 02:04:54.119 really want to do you know, if you've been going 2535 02:04:54.159 --> 02:04:56.600 there forever and you think it's a great price, that's fine, 2536 02:04:56.720 --> 02:04:59.479 but I would check and the reason is they might 2537 02:04:59.600 --> 02:05:02.479 match for you whatever discount says or vice versa. 2538 02:05:03.840 --> 02:05:05.279 Okay, that's where I'll do.

I'm just looking 2617 02:09:09.239 --> 02:09:11.319 for recommendations for carriers to. 2618 02:09:13.279 --> 02:09:17.880 Interstate Well, that would be JFR Cars for sure. 2619 02:09:18.079 --> 02:09:20.319 Yeah, this is the kind of stuff. It's just years 2620 02:09:20.399 --> 02:09:20.840 of doing it. 2621 02:09:20.880 --> 02:09:24.479 So Stacey, JFR Cars. They're on a referral list at 2622 02:09:24.479 --> 02:09:27.039 referral list dot com. But here's why I like what 2623 02:09:27.159 --> 02:09:31.239 Rod does. He has He has access to this it's 2624 02:09:31.279 --> 02:09:34.760 basically a subscription he pays for. They ship cars all 2625 02:09:34.800 --> 02:09:37.039 over the country. They have cars ship to them all 2626 02:09:37.079 --> 02:09:39.359 over the country. So he's going to put in the 2627 02:09:39.399 --> 02:09:42.880 exact town that this car is and what date you 2628 02:09:43.000 --> 02:09:45.600 need it. And these people come back with bids and 2629 02:09:45.680 --> 02:09:48.239 he's going to pick the best one. But they're always 2630 02:09:48.239 --> 02:09:51.640 insured and they're always there's never a problem with them, 2631 02:09:51.680 --> 02:09:53.960 and if there is, the insurance will kick in. But 2632 02:09:54.439 --> 02:09:56.279 the bottom line is he's going to get you the 2633 02:09:56.319 --> 02:09:59.640 best deal because he has a subscription to this service. 2634 02:09:59.680 --> 02:10:00.600 Does that makes sense? 2635 02:10:02.319 --> 02:10:04.640 It does for sure. And you know, we've reached out 2636 02:10:04.680 --> 02:10:08.279 to several multi state carriers and you know it's a 2637 02:10:08.319 --> 02:10:13.159 big yeah, and hard to feel confident. 2638 02:10:12.760 --> 02:10:14.920 And so in fact, and in fact, there's a lot 2639 02:10:14.960 --> 02:10:17.560 of ripoffs in that anybody out of Florida just don't 2640 02:10:17.600 --> 02:10:19.199 even mess around with in general. 2641 02:10:19.479 --> 02:10:21.199 But go to j f R. Do we have there? 2642 02:10:21.520 --> 02:10:23.600 It's three oh three here, I got the number eight here, 2643 02:10:23.800 --> 02:10:26.159 three oh three five two zero. 2644 02:10:26.600 --> 02:10:29.239 Six A three nine. And like I said, the reason 2645 02:10:29.680 --> 02:10:32.000 I put so much trust into Rod and the gang 2646 02:10:32.039 --> 02:10:32.880 over there is. 2647 02:10:32.840 --> 02:10:36.279 They literally ship cars every day of the week to 2648 02:10:36.479 --> 02:10:39.159 and from wherever their clients are, so they just know 2649 02:10:39.279 --> 02:10:41.920 it in and out. Three oh three five two zero 2650 02:10:42.039 --> 02:10:44.359 six eight three nine. Is that it, Stacey? 2651 02:10:44.600 --> 02:10:47.279 Perfect, That's what I needed.
