AJCRADIO
Exposing Injustices Wherever Found
an Organization for Social Justice
We take a look at and discuss the act of kindness shown by Judge Tammy Kemp and Brandt Jean to Amber Guyger in the court room. This act shows us that the court room doesn't have to be a place of hostility. It can be a place of understanding. In addition, we highlight the caring acts of other judges around the country.
We talk about the lack of care and concern for veterans in our country. Everywhere you look there are people who have risked their lives for the United States, and they have no place to stay and no food to eat. Why does our government allow those who sacrificed so much to be homeless and starving?
We take a look back to one of the greatest tragedies that fell upon our nation. As the terror struck our country, we came together as a nation to support each other during and after this devastating attack. Take a moment to remember those who lost their lives, those who sacrificed their lives, and those who survived to tell their stories of that day.
Our hosts discuss the times that officers of the criminal justice system have crossed the line with their use of force. How many lives could have been spared if an officer had not panicked or overreacted to a certain situation?
We are joined by family members of De'Von Bailey who was recently shot and killed in Colorado Springs, Colorado by local police officers. They're here to speak out on behalf of De'Von and to advocate against the abuse of force and police brutality in our local community.
After explicitly discussing the type of service desired and expected, Fisk failed to complete any service that had been paid for. For the cost of approximately $1500 per month for pruning of shrubs, bushes, and hedges; flower bed weed removal and deadheading; removal of debris and dead/withering vegetation. A payment of $1775 had been made for sprinkler maintenance and repair; Fisk had not performed any of the before-mentioned services. Payments had been made for April, May, and June 2019. As of July 4, 2019, no trimming or pruning of hedges, shrubs, or bushes had been performed.
Flower beds were not weeded, and grass had grown into the flower beds. Sprinkler system was not setup/serviced to support proper growth and coverage in flower beds and subsequently, flooding of the backyard occurred because of sprinkler disrepair. After 4 tries, Fisk was unable to eradicate this problem and another contractor had to be paid $1500 to fix the system that Fisk had already been paid to complete. Laso, due to the flooding, sod had to be replaced for an additional $600. Flowers installed into flower beds were not the flowers agreed to when the contract was compiled with Jacob Stankich, and Rick Hobb. Concrete color and texture is not the correct color and texture according to what was agreed to with Rick Hobb. There was no sample concrete viewing prior to pour, which is their standard process. Rick Hobb, in the presence of Jacob Stankich, agreed that because the job had not been performed according to what was agreed upon, the remaining balance for the concrete installation would be negated and Fisk would attempt to correct the problems that exist. When a business fails to provide the agreed upon service and installs the incorrect product, the only proper course of action would be a full refund to the customer. Instead Fisk sends a letter with a balance due from the customer. This is an inconceivable response on the part of Fisk Lawnscapes.
Our hosts discuss the dark side of Robert Mueller and the injustices committed during his career. They also take an in-depth look at Congressman Louie Gohmert's article, Robert Mueller: Unmasked.
