Yeah, ripped news need advice? Who you don't have? Come running just as nass as we can. Show Shooter is gonna help. Come man, This is the Troubleshooter Show. Now, Tom Martino, Hey, Tom Martino here, Welcome to the show. Three oh three seven one three talk three oh three seven one three A two five five another day another I don't know dollar two dollars, five dollars, one thousand dollars, whatever you make in today. Welcome to the show. Thanks for being here. Let's talk.
I gotta tell you it. It simply amazes me that with this show on the air for all these years, and for my Sleeze Brigade and all the other calls we have taken, we can say that we have never had more complaints ever, ever than from Jeff Jolliffe. In my opinion, the man should be in prison. He is a thief and a liar and a scumbag, and he's had a number of different companies. If you go to Sleavesbrigade dot com you can read about some of it. The man is I don't
know. I swear to God, I don't know how anyone in the world doesn't know about him. By now you gotta put the word out. This guy is such a scumbag. I don't even know. I mean, I don't think. I think he totally exists on lies. Totally. He takes money and does nothing. He's a crook. Now in cases where people come back to complain and take their car back because he doesn't repair them by the way, he doesn't do what he says, But when you come back to
complain, in many of those cases, the cars end up stolen. The guy is I don't know how to put this a scumbag. If you don't do anything else, please do me a favor and at least get the word out. Now, why do I bring him up today? Because I have a caller on. Let's talk to him. Eric, Hi, John, good morning. Now have you ever called me before? Oh? No, sorry, I have not. Now did you know that we have gotten dozens
and dozens and dozens and dozens of planes like this on Jeff Jollify. The only reason I'm aware of it is because I just had my experience with him, and I decided to google him, and that's when I saw your yes, sir, and then so that's why I emailed the show. Now would I have known prior I wouldn't have gone to him. Now, let me ask you something, when were you stung by this guy? So I just
turned fifty in March, and for my fiftieth birthday is March twenty. I about myself a corvette and it was a cheap corvette, you know, I needed a transmission and stuff. So it was like, how'd you find him? How'd you find Tom? I was looking on Facebook for transmissions in it and a specific transmission I need. He has an AD or six or so ad on Facebook with different names and different cities like Birdtt and Johnstown in Loveland. What name is it? What name is this clown using? Now?
Well, he I can't remember exactly, but when I met him, he said that was his dog's name. It was a Xander with an X or something. Because then I called him Xander. He's like, no, my name is Jeff. That's my dog's name. I'm like, oh, did he say Jeff Jollis? Yeah? And what what's the name of the business you did business with? Come on, you must know, yeah, yes, it's Mountain View Transmissioning Gear for Mountain View Transmission and Gear. And then
what did you do when you called him? Did he sound good. Well, yeah, he was a silver tongue devil, so to speak. And he said, yeah, you know, I could do it in a day. And I was outcited because I didn't have my first corvette. And so Mountain viewed transmission and gear. Yeah, and it's that three fifty five Mountainview Road, Birch at Colorado, Okay, number fourteen Mountain View Road, Okay, number fifteen fourteen, sorry, fourteen, unit fourteen, got it.
It's a storage unit, right, Well, yeah, they're they're big, big rental. That's a big storage building. It's a it's at Atlas Roger and Storage at Gateway Park. Okay. And what did what did you do? Did you have to give him money up front? Yes? I so I spoke with him, and I and I had to take the transmission out of my car, and which I did. And oh wait, so you didn't take the car to him, No, No, I just took the
transmission, all right. And uh so I showed up there and I met him, and he sounded, you know, there's all kinds of transmission stuff in there. And what did you pay him? I gave him nine hundred cash and do you know he's and then what else did you give him? Plus the transmission and the transmission? Now, I want to tell you something. Do you know he has never completed a job yet. I have a
feeling. So what happened? When did you drop this off? Okay, so I dropped it off at the end of March, I'd say, like the twenty fifth or so, and he said, you know, it'll be a day. And it was two weeks before I got it back. And he said, oh wait, you did. Wait whoa, whoa, whoa, There is a miracle afoot here, ladies and gentlemen. You say, wait a minute, no, you just there might be a miracle. You said, you actually got it back. I did get it back. Hold
on, that alone is a miracle. A miracle. I mean, I am like flabbergasted that you actually got it back. The heavens are opening. What happened? Then? Well, there's a catch to it. He was supposed to get me a rebuilt port converter with it, and when I showed up to pick it up, finally he tells me he sends me to Denver. He says, go to see my guy in Denver and sends me to go buy my own and torqu converter. But was the transmission rebuilt? Well,
it was repainted. Let's say, do you know if it was rebuilt or not. Oh, he claims it it was, but I uh, after after drive put it in the car in the beginning of April and three weeks ago, three and a half weeks ago, you know, the gears went out in it. Oh, and it failed and it failed. It failed in how many weeks from I'd say March twenty eighth to May twentieth, May fifteenth th something. Okay, now here's what I want to know.
Don't ever take your car there with the failed transmission. If he says take bring your car on all to fix it, because then it'll be stolen. That's what that's what he told me to do. And I said no, thank god, because your car would have been stolen. Yes. I called him back and told him it failed, and he said bring it back. Something broke and it was no big deal to him. He's like, just pull it, like I have time. I'm a single dad the two boys. I run my own paint company. I'm like, ye, okay,
I don't have time to pull it. So I pulled it again and I took it to him. Tom and he said the same thing a day. Ok okay. So I dropped it off and I got it back last Saturday. So it was ten days and I put it in Saturday night and Sunday I drove it for nine minutes and all the gears are gone and it's full of sledge. Yeah. So I don't know. Twice and took it to him two times. Now what that's why I called him. I called him.
I called him again and he said, he tells me to pull it again a third time, and he said, I said, I don't have time and I don't want to pull it. He said, my guy will pull it for five hundred bucks. What is this guy? Where does it stand right now? Right now? It stands that I told him that he needs to refund my money completely. He won't, And now you can take in the small claims court, but he doesn't care and there's nothing to collect. The guy is a crook. In fact, does he have a phone
number we can call? We need to bombard this ass and get him out of business. We got to get him out of business. I have two phone numbers for him, and they both work as of yesterday. They did. Okay, Now these are probably new of okay, numbers, I want them. What are they? One phone number tom is nine seven zero six eight nine five zero four seven, Yeah, and the advertised one for Mountain View Transmissions that I had been getting hold of him on prior to this other
number, which the other number I just gave you work yesterday. The other number is seven to zero three three three nine five four eight, and I had spoke to him both of these numbers this week. I want people. We got to get him out of business. Yeah, I'm on a mission to get him out of business to save people. Jeff Jollison is a cruck and a liar and achieved. I could not afford this, and I splurged.
After my fifty year old fifty birthday, I bought myself book. Well, hold on, Eric, I'm gonna give you some truth right now. You're ready for some truth? Yeah? Okay, the truth is and I mean this sincerely, he's never gonna change. Don't go back to him, don't use your money, don't waste your money. You're not going to get your money back. You're not going to get anything. You got to move

Now, Hey, let's talk. Mark is here, Mark, Mark? Mark? Hey good to hear. Hey, Hey, hey, hey, hey, Mark, listen. And I'm serious. I'm not.
I'm not talking politically now, but I'm talking about verdict. What do you know anytime you say you're not talking political, No, what I mean is I'm not. What I want people to know is I'm not trying to bash or promote anyone. I'm trying to ask, what do you think the verdict will be? Serious? I would say, if I was a betting man, which I am on occasion, I would say, we're going to come back with a hung jury. But I do think we have a possibility of
an acquittal. But I'm guessing it's going to be a hung jury. So the question is how long is it going to take a man? These people are sick and tired of sitting there. So Mark, I think because of the venue and where it is in Manhattan. I think you could get There's no way you can get an unbiased Jerry. First of all, that's well, I don't know, man, I still have confidenaith. Well, yeah, I don't even want to say faith. I want to say confidence in
the individual. I understand you might like, like I don't like Biden at all, But if I was sitting at a criminal trial, right it was evident he didn't do anything wrong, I simply couldn't. I couldn't throw a guilty at him, thinking you know, oh, I don't want this guy as president next year. I just even the dis I know you wouldn't. I know most people wouldn't. But I'm thinking about, then why do we say? Why are you even alluding to that? I was going to explain
people in New York, Well, I was going to explain it. What I mean is I don't think they would intentionally say to themselves, yeah, the guy didn't prove the case. Bragg didn't prove the case. But I hate this guy. I want him to be president. No. But what I think is this. I think when they are hearing the evidence, I think they convince themselves he is guilty. But now I heard the jury instructions.
I mean, they believe it or not. I think the only time the judge was a little straight up, and I think the guys as crooked as he gets. Man, But I think the only time, and I think he has to do it now. I'm listening to a lot of pundits and a lot of them say the same thing. He has to give a certain set of instructions. And I listened to all of them coming back, or at least as reported from the courtroom, and I don't see how any of them, any of these jurors, let alone all of them, find
him guilt. So once again, I think an acquittal is possible. But god, there's probably one more on in the twelve but maybe not. Maybe they all are honest. We're gonna find out. I would hope in the next couple of days. Get this man back on, get him back on the campaign trail. It is unbelievable that one side, one side of our political party is going after the biggest composition who's leading in the polls. And then how about this Robert de Niro freak out. Oh my god, the
guy sounds like he should be in a rubber room. Man. I don't even understand what he was trying to say. Man, he was calling him a punk and a gangster and oh my god, Hitler basically, oh, I mean god, it was nuts. Man. It see, and I think the people are sick of it, and I think, okay, I'll go right to some stuff. I think people coming over illegally from Mexico and other places, or people that came over legally, I think they're sick of it. They're like, hell, we left this kind of stuff to come
over here, and this guy is gonna ruin this country. And I'm talking about Biden. But then when you see some wacko like DeNiro get up there, Oh my god, what did you notice happened to this guy? Where he's that angry mark. I'm on mailing lists because I'm an registered as an independent. I'm on both mailing lists, and I'm getting all the Biden Harris promotional emails. I'm sure you are, now, no I am, and I'm getting I'm sure you are. Now you should too, because it's very
enlightening. Do you know how many almost every email has a celebrity attached to it. He is, Biden is big with celebrities, I mean big. He's like Okay. See this is where I don't who even cares? Man? No, But what I'm saying is to god, who even cares? Well, I'm telling I'm just saying something. I think people obviously must care because they're they're putting them in every email. I mean, well, and they're also losing money at the box. I mean, with the exception of
a few theaters, I mean pretty much everything goes to Netflix. Now, I mean, they've destroyed their own industry. No one cares what Tom Cruise has to say. I mean, honestly, guy, how come when you take someone like that that's in scientology. I think that's Tom Cruise. You know, there's nothing ever ever talked about how wacky that is. But by the way, speaking of Cake de Naro, and he goes in and he goes off on some just tangent. That's unbelievable, man, I mean,
the guy's out of his skull. Speaking of Julia Roberts, by the way, is one of his favorites. He's on a bunch of stuff, and there are all Clooney is Clooney is part of list and man, the American people are sick and tired of these elite people. Whether they're politicians, or they're the elite Hollywood, which is becoming all the same. They're sick and tired of this crueling class. They're starting to understand when a guy gets up there and goes, you're not black unless you vote for me like Biden,
did I mean that is racist within itself. Well, lamarl A's starting to come around, thank god now speaking of that. The racist thing. Honest to goodness, I've said this before. I would be so insulted if I was black and had to hear everything Democrats do is because they want to protect black people from racism. No, they're basically saying, you can't live your own life. Only I can tell you how to do it. But it's
crazy. It's even worse than that. What they say is this, we have to decriminalize, we have to take away crime because you commit too many crimes. That's really what they're saying. But the reason, but the reason that's even worse than what people are imagining right now, is because most of that crime happens in their own neighborhoods. It's crazy. And then, and then what I hear these policies doing is saying, well, we have to
change shoplifting. Why did they do that in California because it was racing and Walgreens, Walmart, all these restaurants. Everybody closes up. I don't know what's left. You get the point, though, isn't it insulting blacks to say to them, yes, if we don't take they're starting to realize that. Yeah, they're saying to you, well, you know, I know you black people aren't going to change your behavior, so we're going to have
to decriminalize things so we don't penalize you too much because it's racist. I swear to god, I wish I don't know if to leave's on, I'd love to hear his perspective. I think they're pandering, and I'd love it he's not on today. I see he sometimes signs onto the YouTube more on stream. But anyway, you want to check what the mayor of Boston wants to do. She wants to decriminalize theft and about ten other crimes and have absolutely no pease action on any of these things. It is so scary tom
now. But the reason they give, the seated reasons are they feel like the laws are too racist against blacks, and they'd say hispanics too. But here's the point, is that how hypocritical is that my gos insane man, And we've already proven it doesn't work to defund the police doesn't. And by the way, by the way, you know we're talking issues here, So if there's anyone offended, here's what I'm going to tell you. Bye.

make sure he never returns to the White House. Well, he's going to ruin the world was another line or destroy, But Biden restored decency, compassion, honest, intelligent leadership.

So, yeah, him and the brother they come to get stuff and then this George Familion comes back by himself and of the time, here's the situation that they're leaving out. This is not going to sugarcoat anything. This guy him into the house and he starts making this young girl.
He thinks she's twenty one, she's fifteen. He starts he holds her hand and stuff, and he's saying things like the cartel blah blah blah, looking into my eyes, this is what I got from the girl that lives there. Anyway, my brother had an or my son had enough of this, and he asked the guy to leave because there was nothing else left here. Now was this was he flirting? Was he making these obnoxious overtures to your son's girlfriend, Oh, to her daughter, who is no, it's a
fifteen year old girl. Let him just okay? So then the fifteen year old girls trying to come on to that. And supposedly this guy is married with three kids or something. But anyway, my son realizes what's going on and asks the guy to leave. Well, my son actually forcibly threw him out of the house, and my son will not take crap from anybody, and so they end up outside swinging it out and this guy finally realizes he can't beat this guy to a fair fistfight. And the last words my son
said is what are you gonna do about it? And he pulls out a gun and he shoots him in the forehead and then he splits and he runs and he falls out of his car. That's why this guy, Georgie, ended up in the hospital. And while he was in the hospital, he assaults a nurse. So this guy has a rap record, which I'm waiting now, Tim, which is very tim. Tim. I got to ask you something. So both the girlfriend and the daughter witnessed the murder. The
girlfriend did not because she was in the bathtub. She didn't even she didn't even hear it. She said she was in the bathtub, and the girl was still in the house because she was freaking out. So my son, but there was others. Then how do you know? How do you know what happened? You're describing something as if it was seen, because I'm telling you the part that I seen, not that I seen the girl. That was that he was making very uncomfortable and how the fight that's how this whole
fight thing uh came out. And these are all statements made to the REPO. No, Tim, Tim, all I need to ask is I'm not challenging you. I'm asking you this. You said, you said that your son said, what are you going to do about it? And the guy pulls out a gun and shoots him. So did someone report that to the sheriff's apartment? And if so, was it an eyewitness? Yes, but I don't know who the eyewitness was. Okay, it wasn't the fifteen year old daughter. No, she was still in the house. Okay, but
somebody apparently he was in the garage. But somebody apparently somebody neighbors out that heard the come and there was apparently three other witnesses out. Okay, that's what I wanted to know. Thank you, Tim. And now there's a protection order on five more people from this guy. So okay, now do you mind listen to him? Okay, God, this is so so. When you were listening to this and James was saying, there's no way my
brother could have done this, you're thinking he doesn't know his brother. I'm sure Hitler's mom thought he wouldn't have done what he did either, So what happens now? What did police say happens? Now? Well, the guy's supposedly on no bond or it's a million dollar bond or something, but he's still I don't know when his court or any of that thing is. But right now we're doing preparation for my son's services. In fact, I'm here
to pick up some clothes right now. But I heard this on the radio coming down and I just had to get on because this guy is no saint and it's too bad about whatever as as they had. But I don't know if it's going to be furniture by murder or what you know? Now, Tim, Tim the daughter, the fifteen year old girl, what did she say or what did your your his girlfriend say? What started this flirtatious kind of obnoxious behavior. He just started eyeing on her and just coming on tour.
And I don't know how long they run the house that I don't have any of that statistic, but apparently just long enough. And he kneeled down to her. This is what she told me yesterday. He kneeled down, he held her hand, and she was getting She was trying to withdraw, but she was afraid to and he's saying to look into my eyes, and he's telling her stuff about the cartails and blah blah blah. He's a you know, don't mess with the cars with me because I'm part of the cartailer
or something like this. And so that's what I got from her yesterday. Okay, okay, And like I said, he's defense and then this is not his child, but it's his girlfriend's daughter. And my son is very protective of family and friends, and so he asked the guy to leave, and then he physically had to put him out, and then so the fight ensued. And then when the guy has a gun. Yeah, Now does your I just need to ask this. Does your son have a criminal record?
Yes? He does, Okay, and is somebody who's been on the right track. I know, Jim, I'm not I'm not Jim. I'm not trying to you know. I know anything. I've listened to you for you. So does he did he have any violence in his background? Your son? Yes? Because I'm thinking that this guy, he's not a perpetrator. He's not a perpetrator. Though most of the stuff my son has done has only always just affected him. Just stupid, stupid, choices and stuff,
but he doesn't go out and pick fights with people on that. No, No, I understand. I don't even know what the relevance he would be. He's the guy with the bullet on his head. Mark am I am? I am? I? Wait? Wait? Mark, did I say anything? Let me finish? Okay, for God's sakes, let me finish. I am trying to tell Tim that the only defense this other guy is going to have if there were eyewitnesses, is that he was trying to defend himself from someone, and they're going to dig into his son's background.
Now, anyone with two eyes can see that. For God's sakes, when somebody is killed and there's a fight, the guy's gonna say I felt my life was in danger. I doubt he's going to say I felt like killing someone. So that's why I'm asking about the other guy, because the defense attorney is going to try to tear the other guy apart. So Tim just be ready for that. Slow because the only defense, if there are eyewitnesses, the only defense. What is he gonna say. He's gonna say I
thought my life was in danger. Yeah, that's what we hear. He's trying to claim self defense. But oh really, okay, Marco geez, well, who would have funked that? So ma so bullet? They retrieved that yesterday in a Rapo County saw They got to do is match ballistics. But and the eyewitnesses, thank god, you have some three witnesses. All right, Tim, My heart goes out to you, man, I mean,
geez, thank you. I mean I just when I heard this, it's like, Tom, I have never talked to you before, but I've listened to you forever, and I just had to get on because my heart beat came out of my chest. That this guy wants to make his brother look like a hero and he's not. Wow, And and thank you Tim for calling. Now, James, James, you know this is not you. This is your brother, Okay. And I'm not saying anything except I'm
listening. But what were you calling about originally? Now, you didn't call originally about trying to make your brother look innocent? What did you call about? I'm calling because my brother needs help. He is in or Appahole County jail and they're violating all of his rights. Like what they're not? Like? What rights? What rights? James? I don't understand which rights are being violated. So when you get injured, you have the right to medication,
right, well, you have the right to medical care. Yeah, yeah, exactly. They're not giving him his medical care. So how was he injured? How was he you're talking about injured from this accident? Yes, how do you know that? You said you haven't been able to talk to him. How do you know he's injured? No, I said I did talk to him. Oh, I'm talking. He's telling me that the nurses are refusing to give him care. They keep telling him when he tells
him that he needs his factor eight pcombinant factor. What is that? Oh? Okay, So he doesn't clock blood. So right now he has internal bleeding and he's bleeding into his extremities, and he's bleeding out of his orifices, like into his underwear and his theater blue and his public defender has all these pictures. Tom. Okay, I thought you said he didn't have an attorney. How the hell did he get one in the last fifteen minutes. I told you that I was going to call him after you. Okay,
I haven't talked to the journey yet. Okay, So listen, James. So you're calling because your brother's not getting medical care, yes, and he's doing really bad, and I can hear in his voice it's not good. Now, James, did anything change in your opinion though, based on what you heard from Tim and supposedly eyewitnesses. No, not at all. You don't think so. And I thank you, Tom, thank you because that's exactly you said, exactly what I was going to say. Why there's two
people, there's two sides. We don't know what's going on. The police will let us know, but they don't have my brother's statement. I don't know about what that girl is saying, but my brother doesn't do stuff like that. Well, come on, do you think they made the whole story up? Everybody at that house was drinking, and Aaron was high, and I know he was high because he had gotten high when I was there, and he had said that he would trade for KHC or quick. Anybody that's
been on the street knows quick means nothing, better means. I told him No, I'm eight months in recovery, James. No, James, So your take on this is that they're making this whole story up about your brother, Yes, but what reason would they do that? Because I know my brother wouldn't do anything. No, that's not what I'm asking. I'm asking what motive would they have to make up a story about your brother and then
kill him? Wait, you got that wrong. I'm sorry. No, no, hold on attempt to kill him where he had to defend himself, That's what I meant. So my brother told me that he was trying to leave. I don't know what went down between Aaron and my brother, but my brother told me he was trying to leave, and he's saying that he
was defending himself. So so he Okay, that's what I'm asking. Why would if he's there to pick up furniture, why would they Why would they all of a sudden want him dead or hurt him or why would they tell me? What? Why do you think they did that? He went over there to pick up the furniture and they were over there having a little party. Was he a selling by the way, was your brother is your He
said it was not. He said it was misdemeanors only. Originally, I don't know if that's true or not, but that's what he said, Mark. He said he was a misdemeanors only. But James, yes, man, that's why they have courts of law. That's why they have cross examination of witnesses. That's why they have Your brother will be heard. As far as medical care, his defense attorney has to make a motion for that if he's not getting care. Now, listen, it's not the first time.
It's really not the first time these claims have been made. I'm not saying you're it's not true, but but listen, you know this, this is a this is a procedure, and I know that people in jail deserve medical care. He has to stand trial. All of that has to happen. We all want that to happen, you know. Now, here's the thing though, It's going to be an uphill battle with three eye witnesses. James, I know. Wow, I'm not I'm not worried, Tom, I'm
not worried. I believe my brother when he says it was self defense. I believe that the three eyed witnesses, Well, what's it called, they'll say the same thing. No, there's a word rip, but I don't know the word. They'll confirm, they'll what they'll collaborate his story. I mean, do you think the witnesses will see that it was self defense? Yes, Okay, so do you What you're saying is what you're saying, James, what you're saying is these people were a bunch of tweakers and they
were getting violent with your brother. Your brother tried to leave and he defended himself. Not everybody there, Okay, I know a d was on some bowl. But here's what I want to know, James, why would your brother go to a house to pick up furniture carrying a gun? Well, they say he took their gun. Whose gun was it, Jamesming, I'm assuming it was Aaron. So you're saying he pulled out a gun and shot him, But he didn't have a gun, so I think he took it
from him. If anything, I don't know. I wasn't there, man. I'd love to talk to these eyewitnesses, my god. Not that we're going to try it here, but I am curious as hell. Okay, James, stay in touch with us and let us know. Meanwhile, if if you need help with the uh, you know, calling down there and seeing what the procedure is for medical care, your attorney should be the one
to do that. Really, And when you talk to the defense attorney, that's what you ask him first, And foremost, don't be getting into that he couldn't have done it. He couldn't have done it. Get him medical care first so he can stand trial. We have more coming right up. I'm Tom Martino three oh three seven three eight two five five.

All right, So we heard from James who said his brother is facing first degree murder charges for you know, going to pick up
furniture, getting into a fight and killing a guy. Now there's three eyewitnesses, but James says his brother was defending himself and that the guy that he killed was a tweaker doing drugs, high violent. The dad called in and talking about his son who was murdered, and the dad said, I'm here making funeral arrangements, and eyewitnesses simply say that his son was sticking up for a fifteen year old girl that this guy Gilbert was hitting on and being obnoxious
to. He threw him out of the house, and then the guy, after having a fistfight, shoots him. Now someone else, Tom, don't you think it's going to be critical to find out whose gun it was?

witness to why it started. But apparently they did not witness the murder, right or did they? They didn't witness the exact shooting because it happened. Everything happened in about five minutes. It was very But did anyone, Aliah, did anyone witness the murder? I believe there were some neighbors. There
were some neighbors. We haven't gotten did names of the neighbors, because it's still an ongoing trial, you know, and I'm pretty sure they're being you know, protected, But from what we know, there were some neighbors. Oh, Ron, do you think it was I think it was Gilbert's gun because I have a brother. His name is Demetrius. He's in a band, and in that band. It was just this random coincidence. One of Gilbert's brothers. I don't think the brother that called, but I think a
younger brother was in this band with my brother and my brother. The day of the shooting, my brother goes to his band and he's venting and he's telling them and he's like, you're kidding. And it turns out that one of the bandmates is brothers to Gilbert Vermilion and he tells, my brother, I am so very sorry for your loss. I'm so very sorry what happened. My brother is a drug addict. He is an alcoholic. He has a long wreck or. He's very aggressive with people. I've gotten into several
fights with him. And just two weeks ago, he broke into our mom's house and stole our guns because because Aliah was your dad. Was your dad a meth head? No he was not. And that's why I'm calling It makes me so angry because people are trashing his name. You know. Yeah, that guy was trying to say he's a tweaker. Yeah no, yeah, no, he was defending a fifteen year old girl. He was always
a very strong, loving, hard working family man. And if and if he sells furniture to this man and this man is a tweaker and keeps coming back every single day, he's gonna he's gonna get angry and kicking. Now, Aliah, Aliyah, the guy went back because there was more furniture, right, No, he ended the My dad kicked him out because he was hitting on the girl. And Gilbert said that he left his keys and he and instead of kindly asking for his keys or asking the police to escort him.
After my dad had stated he didn't want him on his property, he went in and he broke down their garage door. He kicked their door in. Jeez, really got it. Yeah, my dad was on My dad was unarmed. He has no possession of a gun, no possession of anything. All he had was a small, cheap famboo stick to try. Was your dad was your well, was your dad pulling a stick on him? No? It was it was like a I don't know how to explain it. The guy's you know, the guy apparently is hitting on a fifteen year
old girl in his house. He wants to get him the hell out of there, and apparently the guy won't leave. I might have or a gun, Aliyah, your dad doesn't get high and wasn't drunk or anything like that. No, he's at the corners and they already they already did that. They already did his report and everything, the toxicology. Toxicology came back clean. I'm pretty sure. Yeah, Aliyah, I'm so sorry. I'm so sorry that this happened to you. Do you have any siblings to my dad?
No, it's just me. Now. He has a lot of nieces and nephews though, and were people shocked. I mean, what this guy is saying it was self defense, his life was in danger. I think you are personally escorted off of property and you keep coming back in and you're kicking someone's storing. It's not self defense. Aliyah, thank you for calling this. This this is this is unbelievable. Unbelievable, and just be ready though, because that's what they're going to do, Leah. They're going to
attack your dad. They're going to say he was being violent. Uh. And I mean James believes every word that his brother is telling him from jail.

But let's continue here three oh three seven one three eight two five five. I'm trying to find my call screener here, Dan. I cannot wait to see this guy's background check this Gilbert. Now let's talk to uh somebody else. Now, David's been called a long time ago. David, Hi, thank you for
your patience. What's going on? David? Hiks Tom, It's good to be on the show. I finally have a trail shooter worthy call to me. So what's going on? Man? So I got laid off two weeks ago. Okay, and good news is I already haven't heard a job so well as well. But the downside was I got a femail. They were not unable to reach me when they laid me off personally because I had quit the day before put in my two weeks notice and I was actually taking that
day off. So you wait, wait, so you were you were let go right after you put in your notice? Yes, okay, yes, yeah, because I've seen the writing on the wall for quite a while. Okay. So anyway, so I got I got an email. It says you're May fifteenth, twenty twenty fourth paychecks will be your final paycheck, et cetera. And then it said you will be paid for seventy one hours as funds are available in PTOs? What does that mean? As funds are available?
What does that mean? That's a good question. Well, are you paid by the hour, by the salary or by commission salary? Just straight salary based on a forty hour week? Correct? Okay? Was there an hourly rate attached to it? Or a flat rate? No? Flat rates? Okay? What was your Okay? But I had these seventy one hours of PTO? Right, so they paid me for my work days? But oh okay, but what as far as you out? Okay, So this just concerned your PTO? Correct? Okay, go ahead? Sure? So
I asked that question, what do you mean by funds are available? And it said they said, we will pay sendy one hours of PO as funds are available at this time, I do not have a state for PTO to be paid. Can I ask you something? So PTO at your company works this way. If you don't take it, you get paid for it anyway. So if you if you leave the job, if you get laid off, or even if you quit you're owed whatever PTO you've accrued. Yeah that state law time. Okay, thank you, thank you, Marco, go
ahead, sir. Yeah. So, so I've accrued these seventy one hours of PTO, which includes you know, some from someone carried over from the previous year, got and what I've crew this year also, so I am kind of curious, like I'm willing to be patient with them. You know, I kind of thought I would wait until maybe the end of the month to start. Well, hold on there, you know, you know that old saying you can't take blood from a stone or whatever, or blood from
a turnip or however they say it. But here's the deal. Here's the deal. They're being honest with you, saying we can't pay you until funds are available. They're not saying we're not going to pay you.

Now, keep going your story and let's figure out what's going on. So what's so? So? Continue, David, you were fired, they don't have the money. What do you expect. They're being honest with you, and they say they're going to try to pay you even if you get a judgment, that still doesn't put money in their pocket. Right, And
I'm more just wondering, like I am. You know, I'm more than willing to be patient, right, Yeah, I just want to not put myself in a situation where one, I've waited too long to demand the money, and or well I waited, it's automatically demanded. I'm don't it's automatically demanded. You're not waiting. Go ahead. What I've looked at in the statue is I can put in a formal request for them to to pay that money and then then go to trouble then go to trouble damages. Right,
so you can do that. You can make you can make a notice right now, just make it, get it on record, and then after that, if they don't come through with your pay, you can sue them for treble damages. And will that be in small claims court with your triple the amount of PTO? No, probably it would be over seventy five hundred right for that many hours, yeah, probably, So you can't go to small claims court for it, So you'd have to go to an attorney or you'd
have to get the labor departments to try to enforce it. But that would light a fire under them. I would do that for sure, give them official notice, keep track of it, and then give them a reasonable amount of time like five days, ten days, and then call us back. I'm Tom Martine.

Somebody called in about this murder and it was just an incredible story. But James called in about his brother Gilbert, accused of murdering a guy, and he says, my brother couldn't have done it. It was self defense. And then the victim's dad called, the victim's daughter called, and
everyone has a different story now. Of course, then there's supposedly some eyewitnesses from the Sheriff's department that the Sheriff's department has on their police report. So that is one of the calls that was amazing. We also had another ripoff from Jeff Jolliffe who advertises in Facebook marketplace. And I want to remind you this guy is a sleeze bucket piece of crap. He is just a piece of garbage. I don't know what else to say. We have never had
more complaints ever ever with auto repairs. He just doesn't do the repairs. He lies to people. He repaints stuff to make it look like it was rebuilt.

That's Jeff Jolliffe. Nine seven zero six' eight nine fifty forty seven. Nine seven zero six eight nine fifty forty seven. These are his new working numbers.

Also seven two zero three three three ninety five forty eight. So let's talk now to Rich who wants to talk about a starter. Go ahead, Rich, Hi Tom, this is Rich. Yes, sir, I'm going to change off of speaker. Jeey good, thank you, okay. Rich. So I've owned twoday
thousand and three Toyota Corolla for ten years. It's been a great car, but I've had an intermittent starting problem with it, and now it's become more more predominant, and now you've had the problem for the whole time. Yes, it's a five speed and so when you go to start it, you have to push in the clutch because there's a switch on the clutch. And sometimes it wouldn't start. You just go click and then you'd let off the clutch and push you back in and then it would start, no problem.
Once in a while it would do that. Then it became well it won't start, but if I roll it a little bit and you know, pop the clutch and then we'll start. Well that's because yeah, that's just popping it. You have a Microsoft switch problem. Yeah, And so I've replaced the starter, the starter relay, the clutch starts switch, and the battery. And when you say the start switch, you mean that little micro switch
that talks about that sees where the position of a clutch is. Yes, okay, so when you depress the clutch pedal, it lets it know you can start right and you've replaced it with hoping maybe one of your service guys you might be able to recommend someone who can look into electrical issue. It's not an easy issue because I'm a mechanical Well, the good part is that Sheridan Autotech does both clutches, and they do electrical and they do cars in
general, and they do foreign cars. So so how often does it happen every single time you try to start? No, it does now, but I mean over the last No, that's what I mean. But now you but right now, if you go to start it, it will not start. No. I actually roll it down the hillpop to clutch it. It runs and it runs well once you're started. Oh yeah yeah, and then if you turn it and if you turn it off, you can't start it again. No, Well, it's got to be. It's got to be
in that clutch sensor. It's got to be. I replaced it. It was a forty five switch from Toyota. Yeah, yeah, I understand that. But the wiring to the switch. The switch is not made. Huh. Nothing I've never had, I've never modeled. But it's obvious. And here's here's how you can tell. You can take the switch out completely and put those two wires together. Just twist them together. Okay, so it's always on. Then try to start it in neutral. Obviously, if it
doesn't start, that circuit is the one that's bad. There's no other way it could be. It's that circuit. That's the only thing that makes sense because it starts and it runs. And if it's that circuit, Kevin Caulkin can trace Itvin, Okay, Kevin over at Sheridan Auto Tech. Let me just give you the number. You know what, We don't have to spend I don't want to waste your time trying to get him on the air. He truly confessed. But you want to twist those together and see what happens.
Now, obviously you already replaced the switch, but that would take out the switch completely, and it would absolutely tell you that circuit is not working. Because if that circuit's together, it should start. There's nothing else that I can see that wouldn't make it start. Now, your starter, by
the way, you already replaced that it could be a grounding issue. But then again before you said it was intermittent, meaning well, I guess it could be a ground problem going to the starter or not getting a voltage and for that, see Kevin can do that voltage check. He can go and see I can't do that part. So forget what I said about that micro stage, because they could be in the starter circuit. It really could be. When you're talking intermittent, it could be anything. So here's what you
do now. Now, before though, when you used to get it to start, when it was intermittent, how did you get it to start? Well, if you moved the car a little bit and you know, pushed in the clutch, moved the car a little bit, let out the clutch, you know, and then started like normal, it would work. Okay, Okay, I'm trying to think now that does not work at all. It could be Well, you can't be a dead spot in the starter. You did a new starter. So okay, here's here's Kevin. Here's Sheridan

Be in touch, be in touch please, we'd love to have you back. Man. All right, let's talk to Darren. Darren. I
remember this call, man. It was a while ago. There was something about food trucks. What can you recap what that was? Okay? What it is is, I am living in a residential neighborhood next to a food a taco food truck operation business. Yeah, they got like three or four trucks. Yeah, but they don't they don't have the truck there. Whereeople are coming to get tacos. Right, they just park there, right, yep, right right. They cook food and they clean the trucks, and
they they have their storage and the building and it's also operating. But is it a commercial area? Is it legal or is it illegal? No, it's it's well the city of lock Boo is allowing them to do this, okay, and it is. Uh, it's not. But it's driving him. Hold on, let's just get to it. It drives you crazy because they're coming and going all times of the night and making noise as well. You must have taken this call, Mark, No, I don't think so,
I just remember it. Okay, go ahead. What's happening, Darren? Yes? So. And they they've got the concrete business operating over there also, which the front end loader is dumping trash. They have a rciel dumpster that the truck comes and empties it before eight o'clock in the morning. They're over there as But if you went over this a year ago. But if lack Bowie in the town saying you're not doing anything wrong, what could we do for you? Okay? Well, I have the code officer's name.
I contacted Adams County. They they won't do anything because they can't see them cooking food inside, so they're denying to help me, the town refuses to shut them down because they can't see in the building. Also, well hold on, wait, wait tell me what would happen if they could see in the building. How would that change things? Because then they'd be making the food in the building, and then that would be you know, operating a kitchen inside of a home. Yeah, but why why are they letting?
What about the concrete business though, we're just we're just glossing over that one. What about that one? I think the county does food tom where the concrete would be more of a city issue. Is that what you're thinking, Darren? Well, right, but there they won't serve them. They won't do assystem deceip But for what for which one are you talking now? The taco business or the concrete business? Either one? Either one? They
won't do anything about it. Well, is it violating any law? Well, yeah, it's it's it's in a commercial it's in a residential neighborhood. Okay, But what is in a residential the parking of the trucks or do they open up the truck there for people to come and get tacos? Which one? Are they just parking their trucks? There's so much business in and out of there, it's constantly not like what like. But that's what I'm trying to get at, Darren. What kind of business is going on in
the house. Well, they have a great, big building dedicated to just the taco trucks. Okay, So is the building separate from the house, yes, Does the building itself not the activity? Does the building itself violate any laws or ordinances or codes? Well? Probably not. Okay, Then you're claiming the activity inside the building is what would violate zoning. Correct. And the reason they won't do it is because they can't see inside there.
What they're saying is they don't have probable cause to go there with a C and desist. Correct. I think. So they've been allowing them to do this for many, many many years. Well, allowing them or turning their you know, a blind eye is different. I know they're the same, but they're they're not giving them official permission, but they're before I thought when you said allowing them or it's not allowed by law, they're just turning a blind eye. Is that what you're saying? Well? Correct? Correct?
Okay, and they're claiming the reason they're turning a blind eye is because they don't know what's They don't really know what they're doing anything illegal, So it's it sounds like they're just lazy and they don't want to get involved in a conflict. Yeah, that sounds like it too. But they Now, did you know that you have a right as a citizen who you are both common to the law, meaning you can actually sue in civil court if your neighbors
are violating a law that is damaging you. And now that I know that, that's what I'm thinking of doing is filing That would be negligence per se. Listen, but it's very very technical. You have to have damages as a result of them breaking the law. Oh, well, it's personal damage. Well what do they know? I'm serious. Now you have to have a damage. What is your damage? Well, just at a lack of sleep, noise pollution? Okay, I imagine that could happen. I don't
know. You got to find an attorney. It's going to be expensive, but you can sue them if they're violating laws and it's causing you harm. I don't know how to put it all together. I'm just telling you that is one way to do it. You don't have to wait for someone to enforce the law. You can go after someone civilly if they're damaging you by breaking the law. Have they Have you talked to any city council members and lach Bowie, Uh? I did. I brought it up at the city
council meeting once. That hasn't been addressed since then, and I was going to go back to the city council. I just keep hammering them, Man, Why do you think they're letting him do it? Why do you think they're letting him do it because somebody knows somebody? Yeah, but I you know, black Boy's pretty small, man, I mean, that's that's pretty possible there. They're They're very small and very crooked. Well, okay, I doubt someone's being paid off if that's what you're insinuating. You know what
county is it? Maybe doing more than the Taco try business? Adams? What what is that thousand people man, Adams County? Yeah? No, no, I mean what does he mean they may be doing more? What do you think they're cooking methan there or what? Oh? Yeah, it's probably part of the cartel. Okay, Darren, Now you're getting a little overboard. Then then I don't know what to say wrong. Okay, he's
just frustrated. I mean, you can tell he's just frustrated. You got to just keep going to those meetings, man and fill their ears up, or like Tom said, hire an attorney. But it's not going to be it's not going to be cheap. No one's going to do it on contingency because I don't even know what the hell you'd win besides putting them out of business. Well right, that's all I want is for them to stop doing it. But also, but also, the contractor will not let me sell
the house. He wants another twenty five thousand dollars. What contractor, Jim Cope? Remember how I talked to you about Jim Coch. Just wait a minute, Wait a minute, Darren. How can a contractor prevent you from selling your house? He said, he said that you called him back and told him I don't even know Sharon. Do me, Darren. Here's what I'm asking Darren. Don't I don't remember it? Not that point, Darren, Darren, let me ask you something. This is what I need to
know. You have a house, and you just made a statement. I don't understand the contractor will not let me sell my house. That statement makes no sense. What contractor? Well, he's wanting to claim inducement of fraud that I got him to build it. Oh god, I remember somehow hold on, yeah, some guy.

Hey, renew Home Innovations will do that brand new beautiful shower conversion in two or three days with seventy two months to pay no interest, and that's no bull. Renew Home Innovations. The wall systems, they have no maintenance and they look exactly like real stone or stone resident. They have beautiful glass panels as well, no doors, no thresholds,

Okay, So Darren, I looked up your old call. I remember exactly. Mark listened to this old call, this previous call. So he he said he can't sell his house to get away from these truck these food trucks. And here's why. He hired a contractor to build
a small two bedroom home for him. Okay. And the contract called for two thousand, two hundred thousand dollars to build it, plus sixty five hundred in an addendum. During the project, Darren decided he wanted to sell and get out of that neighborhood, but the contractor threatened him, and the contractor said it was fraud in the inducement. Now, why would a contractor who built a home for two hundred and six thousand, five hundred dollars claim it
was fraud if he sold the house mark why I don't recall. Here's why I know. I was asking you if you could fathom any reason why this guy would have a case. This contractor claimed that Darren cried poor mouth to him and got the contractor to build a house. I do remember that, okay, and then fat okay, he actually had some money. No, it's not that he had money, not at all. He said that Darren claimed to be poor and couldn't afford a house, and and so the contractor
gave him a special discount. Now the contract says no, nothing about that. There is nothing in writing except the price of the house. Now, Darren stood to make a profit on this house when he sold it, and the contractor was pissed off because the contractor said, if I knew you were going to sell it for a profit, I would have charged you more. Now, Darren, I don't care what that lying's thieving contractor told you. I never called that contractor and told him to sue you. Never did I
say that. So Darren, you're free to sell your house. This contractor doesn't have a leg to stand on. Why the hell would you think that a contractor who's been paid in full would have some kind of hold over you selling your house. You know, I knew you were going to say that, because I knew he was lying when he said that he called him back. There was no reason to call him. There was no reason to call
him because you fell for his cap Amy's story. Do you know, just like you think your neighbors are working for the cartel, Darren, you put your house up for sale and sell it. Okay, okay, because you know, like I said, he threatened me with inducement or fraud. I'm not trying to sell it to make money, Darren. It wouldn't matter if you made a million dollars. The guy built you a house and you paid
him. He also, in order for me to get the certificate of occupancy, he forced me to give him another fifteen hundred dollars that he said was for repairs. He never maar anything that's water. That's water under the bridge. Man, You already did that. But is there anything in writing ever that said if you sold the house you would give him a portion of the proceeds. No, no, is there anything at all? Is there anything at all that says he's giving you a special price, under the condition that
you keep it a certain number of years. No, no, nothing in writing. He was just assuming that that I did you tell him? Did you tell him that you would keep the house and you couldn't afford a house, And did he say, well, then I'll give you a special deal. Well, I told him, yes, that I wanted to live in the house for the rest of my life. Okay, Okay, so that's not fraud. That that's not fraud, and that's not a contract. Listen, bro Darren, you're a little nutty. I'm not going to be I'm
not going to lie to you. You're a little nutty. You're nutty that you think your neighbors are with the cartel. You're nutty that you think this guy can sue you. It's just a little nutty. Okay. So I don't know how to help you. I don't have medication available, but I think you should sell your house and get out of the neighborhood. Three oh three seven one three talks seven one three eight two five five. Joe, what's going on with you? Joe? Hey? Tom? Hey, Tom?
I promised not to be nutty, Okay, what's happening on? I called you a couple months ago, I had a PayPal credit card backed by the wonderful folks at Synchrony Bank, right, And it was a card that I never used, but I sent seventy five bucks a month to it like clockwork, thinking it was like paying a Roku bill or some stupid bill. Right, So I never looked at the actual bills coming in because if I was overpaying, I would get a check in the mail and I would stop
send him the seventy five bucks a month. But what I what did happen is I was served with a lawsuit for three thousand, four hundred and eighty two dollars and I have no idea how that money, how that bill was generated. I've asked the law firm that is really, who's wait a minute, man, who's suing you? They sold it to a collection agency? Who's they? Who's they who sold it to? So you're telling me, you're telling me you had a PayPal credit card, right, And did you
use the credit card? Never? I never touched the credit card. And why were you sending him seventy five dollars? That good question, why are you sending? Yeah? I assumed it was a Roku or you know, a reoccurring bill that it was just paying. So I was just sending it seventy five bucks outside you you were sending seventy five bucks to Synchrony, but you had no idea why. Well, yeah, I I know that when I started that seventy five bucks, there was a reoccurring bill on it.
I mean, that's the only reason I would do that. What was the reoccurring bill? That's what I mean. What was the reoccurring bill that showed up on Synchrony. It's so many yours ago. I think it was Roku and another you know little okay, how many? How many? And why was it put on Synchrony because it was put on your PayPal credit card? Right. Synchrony is the company that basically runs the credit card for PayPal. They run the credit card. They run the credit card for Amazon too.
Yeah yeah, yeah, So was it Amazon or PayPal? It's PayPal, it is was a PayPal credit card? All right? Hold on a second, Joe, I have an idea.

I do know how to help you, but but I do want to just say this. Somehow you accumulated a balance on the PayPal credit card with Synchrony Bank, let's just say Synchrony Bank. And you have no idea really how it got there, but you made payments on it for seventy five bucks a month.
Apparently while you were making those seventy five dollars payments, it was not enough to keep up with it. And now you have a lump sum do that they're suing you for? How much is lump sum? Four thousand? Did you say? Yeah? Three four and eighty two. And this is the biggest problem is every connection I've had with the folks who are now trying to collect the debt, I've asked them, how did this start. You know what was John, Here's what I want to know. Why don't you know?
Why don't you know? I because I don't remember using the card, that's the But you apparently, Okay, then that's stupid. If you don't remember using a card. I would never send seventy five dollars a month for years to a card I never used. Well, there, I agree with that. I have to plead stupidity. There, it's just that. But all of a sudden. But when I'm going apparently, let's start at the beginning. Joe, Apparently you did apply for a PayPal credit card. Oh
yeah, why why? Just just real quick answers. Why? Why it's been so long? I don't remember why I How long ago was it? That's what I want to know. How long ago was it? I'm guessing at least five years ago, at least okay, at least five okay, because if it was six years ago that you stopped paying, if it was six years ago that this bill was incurred, they can't get a joejudgment. It's against the statute limitations, it's beyond the statute. Okay, So that's
one thing to keep in mind. And they but but if you were making seventy five dollars a month payments, you were keeping it alive. So when did you stop? Well, I stopped when they sold the debt to the collection. When now I don't know when I'm asking you, when okay, ten, ten twenty three with the last bill, okay, then it's probably it's probably alive. And well, you have a balance due that you don't agree with or you don't know how it came up with. So here's what
you do. You tell them that without documentation, you will not pay the debt, and they're going to take you to court and they're going to have to show the court documentation and if they can't, you don't have to pay it. They don't get to just collect from you unless they get a judgment. And the only way they get a judgment is proving that you owe the money and the only way to prove you owe the money is with an account transcript. That's it. You win if you don't have that bill o'ed.
Here's the big problem is I don't know, and this is why I'm The crux of the reason I've called is if there's somebody in the debt collection business that knows that when they buy this debt because that's how they get a hold of them. Right, they put pennies on the dollar to buy my debts. Right, you only have twelve months of accounting that they've sent me three times now because every time I've dealt with these folks who are trying to get
the money, I said, just show me where this started. But they don't have to show you. They don't have to. They don't have to show you. They don't have to show you where it started. What they have to show you is the time when you kept paying on it. It is assumed you acknowledge the debt. All they have to show you is what the balance was at that time and what it accumulated to after you stopped paying. You are under the impression they have to go back to the beginning of
time. Well, that is the what started this whole thing is the beginning of the debt. I have been a victim of identity sept multiple times. You were making pay you Okay, whether whether you like it or not, you confirmed the debt. Okay. That's that you're never going to go back. You're never going to go back and say it wasn't my debt. You confirmed it. You made payments for how many years? How many years? I have no idea. Okay, I started that, I think, Joe,
Joe, it's your debt. Okay, it's your debt. But they do have to show you did have a You did open an account with PayPal, but you admit that, so you did you open the account. Now there could have been fraudulent charge on there. There could have been. Maybe you didn't make any of those charges, but you just pay your bills every month, and that was one of them. But because you did it for so long, you can't contest them. Now it's too late. It's too
late. You confirmed. What don't you understand, Joe? What do you not? What do you not understand? What do we understand? What I don't understand is we we know Synchrony has in their computers every friggin transaction I made. Why can't they spit them out and show them, Joe, to both the people who are suing me and me, because they hold let me try something. When they sold that debt, the person that sold it, Sacrony Bank, agreed that they were done with it. They washed their hands
of it. They won't get involved in it in anything else. We mean you have such an odd Oh my god, I'm going to hang myself if you don't go on, Tom, It's never ending. Joe, Joe, listen what you're saying. You're not listening, Joe. You're close. Well, well, Joe, you keep saying the same thing over and over. You want to know when they sold that debt. They It's very likely they got rid of their records. It's very likely they sold it. They don't
care about it. They wrote it off. They sold it, and whatever they sold it for they wrote against the debt and the rest of it's gone. Now the debt, the new guy that took over the debt. What you're saying is because they can't go back from the beginning of time, they're going to have a tard time proving it was yours to begin with. Well, if you claimed it was identity theft, you never opened the account, or the chargers were fraudulent, that would have worked had you not paid on
it for years. Okay, okay. Now, so the time they took over that debt to the time you stopped making payment, they only go back to where you stop making payments. You had a legitimate debt you were paying on for years. You stop making payments. That's why they're going back twelve months. Now you can argue your argument. I'm not saying it won't work. You can go when they sue you, and they will, but wait for them to sue you. They have to sue you to get a judgment.
I have a courting date, Jane twentieth. I have to appear, and when you show up. When you show up, you're simply going to ask for documentation and you're going to say you don't even believe it's your debt. Now, if they bring up the point you've been paying for years and the judge says, well, you're crazy, But the judge might say, well, what documentation do you have? You don't know how it's going to
go, just because we think it could go a certain way. The judge can rule anyway he wants, okay, or she wants so so, so take your chances. That's it now. It's thirty four hundred dollars right now. If you go to court, it's probably going to be four to five grand. But that's okay. Take your chances. You know you're so hell bent on not paying it. Take your chances. That's what you do. I get you take your chances. There is a chance there is a chance,
Joe, that that the whole thing. The guy might say, get out of here. They don't like collectors that don't have documentation. But again, when that documentation has to go back for As a matter of opinion, some people say it is what's called no vation or confirmation when you make your payments and payments and payments and then stop. Others will say they have to go back. It depends on what judge you get there you go three oh three seven, one, three eight, two five five. We have more

Tom Martino here, three oh three seven one three talk seven one three A two five
five. What's going on? Doug? What's happening you every day when I'm home in town? Thank you, Thank you man. I went to the mailbox yesterday when I got back in town, and I found a completed life insurance policy paperwork. Wait that you supposedly did? Somebody signed a name that
doesn't look anything like my name on the application form. My birthday's not correct, my place of birth is not correct, my phone number is not correct, but the address is right, and the Social Security number is correct. It's your name and your social everything else is not correct and your address, but everything else is not correct. Yes, exactly, it's what is what
is this? What are you applying for? In this application? Twenty five dollars of simplified whole life insurance payable in premiums monthly on an auto draft. And who's the agent? Say? It's somebody named Gregory John Wolbright. Did you call him and say this is not me? Every place there's a phone number for him is blank on this paperwork, And I didn't know what to do first, So I'm asking you, where's the underwriter, Doug? Who's
the underwriter? Government Personnel mutual life insurance out of San Antonio, Texas. Why don't you start with them and tell them you ever get through the phone? That if because it rings and then he put on hold for an hour, two hours and they'll be ever picks it up. Now I know the origin of this possibly is a whear ago. I was shopping for life insurance and I applied with this company. But at the same time, my bank account got hijacked and I had to go to first bank and get a new
bank account. So I tried to call this coming beneath to tell them the account number they had not going to work. So wait a minute, so you okay, So wait a minute. Then then it's not so foreign. You did apply for this policy. You did apply for not not on May twenty seconds of this year. I did not, no, no, no, I understand that you applied for it back when a year year and a half ago okay, and when you applied for it, they could never draft
a payment. But had your bank account not been hijacked back then, you would have had a policy with them. Is that correct? I would have back then. Okay, I get it, I get it. That's all I'm asking. I'm not trying to hook you. So you would have had a policy back then, but because you could not authorize payment because you had a new account and could never get through to them, it was never put through. So therefore, somehow this agent or whoever you were in contact with
was contacted finally by the car. They're finally getting around to you saying we never activated this policy, and I know what happened. The guy filled it out again with a new with a new date and sent it to you. What are you supposed to do with this? Does it ask you to sign it? What does it ask you to do? It wants me to sign for receipt of a policy. And then what who's paying for it? And who's paying for it? I'm supposed to be paying for it? But they
don't have drafts from but they have nothing. They have nothing to draft payments from. Right, Okay, Doug, I suspect listen, you may not like what I'm saying, but if what you're telling me is correct, just because you did not let them draft the premium doesn't mean you're not obligated to
a contract. Let me give you an example. If I signed a cont tract for an annuity, for a license excuse me, for insurance, or for a car, and I was supposed to supply bank account information, I did, and I did not, and I dropped the ball or forgot about it or they didn't answer their phone. No matter what the reason was, I could still be liable for the contract you promised to pay. You have
a contract. The fact that they never drafted your account makes it an account do not free unless the contract said it's only it's only official if you make your first payment or whatever it could be that you are obligated to pay because you do have a contract. Now they haven't tried to collect yet. And you may think I'm not signing for receipt of this. I don't have a contract. If they show you an active contract that you signed back a year
and a half ago, they cannot only get you for that contract. But if they claimed you were insured the whole time, they can get you for back premiums if you have a contract. Well, in the initial thirty day preview window when they mailed me the policy, I canceled the policy at that time and mailed it back tome. Okay, and do you have proof? Hold on, do you have proof you canceled it? That's like a photocopy of the page. No, any I mean you said you canceled it.
So so back then you say you had a thirty day review period for a policy. Yeah, when they mailed to me the policy the first time, and they say what do they tell you to do? That says if we do not hear back from you in thirty days from the original date, that okas you approve of Okay, did hear back from me? Because I also got a call for an attempted call from the woman that works in this agents. Okay, so you have you have that original letter from them that says
you have thirty days to contact them. Sure, yes, it's in the file. Good. Well, then you have nothing to worry about. You don't have a contract, but they think you do, just so you know, starting a week ago, I think what's happening is that's somebody Yeah, yeah, that's what I think they're doing now. I'm not saying they're going to be successful, and that's why you should, you know, make sure they don't have your policies or anything. But don't be surprised if after this
a bill shows up for a premium. I mean, I'm not saying you have to pay it. Bro. There are all kinds of weird people in this world. You had a contract, and I think what happened is no one acknowledged that you canceled it, and somebody put a new date on it and sent it to you saying the hell with this, you know, we'll just start it again this year. And does it say on this new one
that you have to notify them within thirty days? Yeah? The cover letter inside this has the same form letter good that you have thirty days and what do they say? You have thirty days to say no, or thirty days if you don't contact them. It's automatically because they're not allowed to really send you an automatic activation. It says, if we do not hear back from you within thirty days from the date of this letter, we will assume that
you approve of and accept the policy as received. You know what, That's exactly what they're doing. They're giving you the original letter back they never heard from you back. Then they're claiming they never heard from you. So they're doing it again. You better make What I would do is make some kind of documentation they're going by the original contact. I would. I would. This is a hell a boy of doing business, but just to protect yourself,
you better contact them. I would Doug send him a certified receipt you live. Do you live in the old ages? Do they even do that anymore? Yeah? But this way he has proof that they received it. Tom, Well, do they even do certified mail? I'm serious when I'm asking you. I've never heard of it anymore. Oh. Absolutely, But the important thing is return receipt requested, so that proves that they got it and then. But I would do more than that. I would also call
an email and keep a trail. Yeah. Yeah, I didn't realize that. This one says, if they don't hear from you, it's automatic. What balls do they have? Man? Is in the state, Well, it's hold on. They have to have a previously existing relationship for it to be legal, or that's the way it used to be. I don't know the new laws on it. For example, they're not just allowed to send you something like a magazine and say to you, if you don't send it
back, you have a subscription. They're not allowed to do anything like that. But with a pre existing relationship on insurance and all of that, normally they still do the negative decline. They don't do the automatic assumption. But but that's why I'm saying, I've never heard of such a thing. It just doesn't sound legit. Did you look up this insurance company? How legit are they? How did you find them? To begin with? I called? Who did I call? A year ago? You got to call?
You must have talked to Is this a new agent or do you remember talking to this agent? I don't. I never talked to the agent. I talked to the woman in the office that took the affic. Well, you better keep trying to call because this is bull crap. I mean, this is bull crap. Also, yeah, that's my social Everything else is wrong. And the one thing they got right was the social I know, but crazy. Just just make sure bank account number, no, they have your
address correct as well. That's it. Yeah, make sure you cancel call us back if you have a problem. Man, you got to get a hold of somebody, and you have to do what Doc said.

seven one three talk seven three two five five. So let's go to Pete, Pete. What's happen opening with you? Hello, Pete, Pete? Uh? Yeah, what's going on? Pete? Hey? You know Dom? Uh? You know? I've got a problem, Yes, sir, what is it? I have parasites? Okay, okay, okay, I've been to five different doctors out here in Colorado. Now can you tell me what kind of parasites? Well, I don't know, Tom, I don't know what they are, don't I know? What I mean is what I
mean is where are they? They're in my body? Like where all through them? They started in my feet? Now my nose is breaking out. Okay, let me, Pete, Pete, listen, I've handled Oh let me look it up about eight or nine calls like this. So how did you discover what they were? And why do you think they're parasites? Well, I've I've looked it up. I've read about him. But what what first started you on this journey? That's what I need to know, I
really do. I need to know what first caused this to to appear? Like did you all of a sudden have itching and then looked up something. How did it work? I did have itching in my legs and my feet And then what and you started looking on the internet? Yeah, okay, and what what did you find? Well? I just started reading about him and you know that. That's when I went down to the urgent care on
Wadsworth. And what did they say? Well, she the doctor, first doctor that I've seen, told me she didn't see any signs of it. It wrote me prescriptions for su cream. Yeah, and then what I came home didn't work. Went back in a month seeing another doctor. Yeah, I told them when I had. They said no, he told me what I had, what he wanted me to have, wrote me a prescription for su cream. He thought you had. What did he think you had? I can't remember, Tom, what he said. I hadn't been four months
ago. But anyways, that didn't work. So I went back another month. I seen another doctor. He guaranteed me what I had and what was that? What did he say? I can't remember what they said. Tom, It's been three months ago and I've been through so much. But anyways, he wrote me a prescription for some bacteria. Can I ask you something? Can I ask you something? Bro? What do you think is going on, Well, I got I got something. My nose is breaking out. I can pick. I picked my arms where I could film, and
I mean I can see. I can see things moving in my arm when I when I cut over. Okay, what now? Now? I assume you called me because you wanted an opinion and you trust me, and all I'm gonna say is this. Okay, Pete, here's what I'm gonna say. There is a phenomenon. No one knows why. Every single thing you're describing everything, everything is exactly as you're describing. People feel c itch the
whole thing. Doctors can't find it, medical tests can't find it. And it's called more Gallons disease m O R G E L L O N S more Gallon's disease. Okay, now, did anyone ever mention more Gallon's disease to you? No? Okay, I'm gonna tell you this. Okay, it's real, but it's not. Let me explain this. First of all, it causes black, white, red blue fibers sometimes under the skin that appear to move, peeling skin, itching skin. People feel like something is
crawling under their skin. The exact cause is unclear. Many people believe. Just so you know, many people, many people have burned their own skin to try to get rid of them. They've scraped their own skin. Have you ever done anything like that. I've dug into my arm, but I've seen things moving in my arm life. I get it, I get it, I get it. But I'm going to tell you something. You're not gonna like what you hear. They say it's emotional and psychologically based and not
a real, actual parasite. Now you may not like it because you swear to God it is there, but there are many other people. But there is no Oh, there is absolutely no anything at all that shows it's viral or bacterial. And and many times it's you have to have something just to quell the itching, or an antidepressant or something. Again, I don't want to make light of this, okay, but if you've gone to doctors and
they can't find the issue, I believe you. Go ahead, Okay, can you guys some down I wander some bills off of the off the internet called Quinn's four. I take, you know, a couple of months, and and I feel a lot better when I'm taking them. It seems like they're going away, you know, and I'll tell you why. I'll tell you why because it's psychological and that is giving you a great kind of feeling. Do it. Then, if you think it's working, do it.
Do it to paratize. Look at there. A parasite detox formula has nothing to do with skin parasites what you're talking about. Listen. I happen to know a lot about this because I've talked to so many people over the years and this parasite cleansing product. To be very honest with you, very few people have parasites, especially the kind you're describing. It's more like outer space
stuff. It's more I'm not making fun of you. I believe it's real to you, and I believe you feel everything, and I believe you can see it, but other people can't see it. Why is that, Pete. They're not lying to you. Now. I want to ask you another very important question, and you're going to have to be honest with me. Did the did the start of this undiscomfort and disease? Did it come with any kind of emotional trauma or upset or change in your life? No?
Nothing, Your life was perfect and then all of a sudden this happened. Yeah, Okay, let me tell you something, Tom, I work over or and I work around a lot of homeless people. Okay, what do you do? What do you do for a living? Pete? What do you do? That's what I do? I I clean up property owned by uh. Okay, and how old are you? How old are you? Pete? Sixty eight? Okay? Listen, Pete, I'm telling you you've been to doctors and they can't find the cause. Can they? They have
looked well because they know that you don't have it. Because first of all, there's no such thing as as parasites that dig under your skin all over your body. There is no such condition. That's why they know. As soon as you walk in, many of them give you backed antibacterial stuff or creams because what they want to do is they're hoping it has a placebo effect and they're hoping it helps you. Okay, let me ask you one question. Now, you would think them, being doctors, why couldn't they do
a steel sample and improve one way or another. And because even if you had, even if you had parasites in your intestines, they're not going to manifest under your skin. What you're describing is not something that would be an intestinal parasite or line disease or anything like it. What you're describing is more gallons disease, which is a psychological disease. Listen, Pete, I don't want to take any more time. I hope you'd honest to God, believe
me. I'm not trying to hurt you. I'm trying to help you. You don't have parasites, Pete, because there is no such thing as a parasite under skin, all over your body. It doesn't exist. Okay that it exists in space, alien shows and stuff like that. It's not real. I'm Tom Martino. We have more coming up. Go with a sure thing Denver's Best roofer Excel Roofing dot com.

Tony, what's going on with the IRS? I know that you're running out of time doown, so I'll be quick. Here my twenty twenty two taxes. I brought all my information to my accountant at the very beginning of twenty and twenty three, and he got seriously ill, and he kept on filing extensions. I believe you can file two extensions. I'm not sure about that,
but go ahead. And then he finally contacted me in December of twenty twenty three and he said, I'm too sick, and you'll have to come and pick up all your paperwork, and I cannot do your taxes for you. So I went to another accountant and I ended up paying all my taxes about nine months later, but I owed the IRS a little over twelve thousand. And all right, Tony, I'm going to get you on tomorrow with an expert. Hang on, Kashina, get him on so we can get
