1
00:00:00.060 --> 00:00:04.170
<v 0>But he was getting paid like on time we were splitting the rent between me and</v>

2
00:00:04.170 --> 00:00:07.260
my brother. So it's not like I gave him the whole six 50.

3
00:00:07.680 --> 00:00:10.740
I had to wait on my brother's half and my other brother's half.

4
00:00:10.740 --> 00:00:12.390
And we all worked different times schedule.

5
00:00:12.400 --> 00:00:17.400
So like Saturday nights I get paid Saturday nights. So Sundays he's never here.

6
00:00:17.410 --> 00:00:20.310
So I had to explain that to him the first time I'm like, Hey,

7
00:00:20.610 --> 00:00:22.470
so if you here Saturday night, you can come,

8
00:00:22.680 --> 00:00:26.010
come through because I get off at 11. I don't get home till like 12.

9
00:00:26.010 --> 00:00:29.700
Cause I had to take a bus at the time. So I explained that to him.

10
00:00:29.700 --> 00:00:33.060
So Mondays he'll come like 10 30,

11
00:00:33.420 --> 00:00:37.430
probably nine o'clock in the morning. Or if you don't come between those times,

12
00:00:37.440 --> 00:00:42.090
he'd come in like 12 and then we'll, we'll all sit. This one, uh,

13
00:00:42.120 --> 00:00:46.320
changed my living room. Um, we sit in the dining room and I'll give him a hat.

14
00:00:46.320 --> 00:00:49.200
Him brother give him his half. He would write us a receipt.

15
00:00:49.380 --> 00:00:52.560
That was the first three times he did the write off on the receipt.

16
00:00:52.650 --> 00:00:57.210
And ever since then, it's been like a problem. I call him,

17
00:00:57.240 --> 00:01:00.840
he ignored the cause, text him in order to text my brother, text him.

18
00:01:00.870 --> 00:01:03.900
He had Nora, but my other brother calls him, ignore him.

19
00:01:04.200 --> 00:01:08.370
But when my mom called them, it was a different store because then he was like,

20
00:01:08.400 --> 00:01:12.150
Oh, we don't pay rent. I'm like, bro, you haven't been around for six months.

21
00:01:12.660 --> 00:01:15.450
However, we're going to pay you rent if you haven't been around for six months.

22
00:01:15.690 --> 00:01:17.700
And then we kept asking you for our receipts.

23
00:01:17.970 --> 00:01:22.770
Now you don't want to give us no receipts now it's he served us with a paper

24
00:01:22.770 --> 00:01:25.590
that said we owe him 15,000. And I said,

25
00:01:25.590 --> 00:01:29.430
how do we owe you $15,000 for so, um,

26
00:01:29.550 --> 00:01:33.540
hopefully I can that farm house table. Um, when I went there,

27
00:01:33.720 --> 00:01:37.260
March 12th, they call, I was getting ready for my shift at 1230.

28
00:01:37.260 --> 00:01:39.690
I remember the tech. I remember the time he told me not,

29
00:01:39.990 --> 00:01:44.070
not to worry about coming in today because they're shutting everything down

30
00:01:44.100 --> 00:01:45.030
because COVID.

31
00:01:45.830 --> 00:01:50.030
<v 1>And how did that impact your ability to pay rent through like the spring to the</v>

32
00:01:50.030 --> 00:01:50.720
summer?

33
00:01:50.720 --> 00:01:53.720
<v 0>Um, I actually couldn't pay rent at the time because, uh,</v>

34
00:01:53.730 --> 00:01:56.150
they didn't have no job. I was looking on indeed.

35
00:01:56.330 --> 00:01:59.660
I was going around like local areas, like, um,

36
00:01:59.720 --> 00:02:02.810
East as I was going on East main town. Uh,

37
00:02:02.840 --> 00:02:06.560
like even a couple of cornerstones over here, like, Hey, I think I can cook,

38
00:02:06.590 --> 00:02:10.670
you know, a couple of hours a day, even do me fine.

39
00:02:10.670 --> 00:02:15.350
Just need something to do. Like after the first court date, he tried to like,

40
00:02:15.350 --> 00:02:17.120
come on and say like,

41
00:02:17.120 --> 00:02:22.070
we owed numerous amount of money and that we never tried to

42
00:02:22.310 --> 00:02:26.120
give him any money. We never tried to contact him or any of that.

43
00:02:26.720 --> 00:02:31.400
But when I showed proof that, uh, called him several times,

44
00:02:31.460 --> 00:02:33.800
I've called, I messaged him several times,

45
00:02:33.830 --> 00:02:37.880
brought everything from proof of, um,

46
00:02:37.910 --> 00:02:41.510
the house is not being a good shape. Proof of me losing my job.

47
00:02:41.540 --> 00:02:42.830
I even told her like,

48
00:02:42.830 --> 00:02:47.030
I can still call my former bosses right now and the owners.

49
00:02:47.030 --> 00:02:49.430
And they will literally like write an email, a statement.

50
00:02:49.460 --> 00:02:52.460
They will write anything and like backing me up saying like,

51
00:02:52.460 --> 00:02:55.280
this is really what happened. And she wasn't,

52
00:02:55.370 --> 00:02:58.910
she wasn't here at all. She just wanted to see

53
00:03:00.490 --> 00:03:04.960
financial, like records of how much money I had,

54
00:03:04.960 --> 00:03:08.950
how much money I was spending, what I was spending it on and stuff like that.

55
00:03:09.040 --> 00:03:12.490
He said she didn't see any proof that I lost my job.
