00:00:35–00:00:38 · Kyle Moring
Hello, hello!

00:00:35–00:00:38 · Sergeant John Beasley
What’s up man? You good?

00:00:38–00:00:45 · Kyle Moring
I rabble roused too much.

00:00:38–00:00:45 · Kyle Moring
It’s five substantiated complaints with the government.

00:00:38–00:00:45 · Kyle Moring
Too much.

00:00:47–00:00:56 · Kyle Moring
They found asbestos in the roofing.

00:00:47–00:00:56 · Sergeant John Beasley
Really?

00:00:47–00:00:56 · Kyle Moring
Yep, during the remodel of the roof replacement.

00:00:47–00:00:56 · Kyle Moring
And then they kept just doing the roof replacement.

00:01:15–00:01:33 · Kyle Moring
And then I had requested the OSHA300 logs for the store, which was like they have to provide it by the next business day. That was like three days ago. And then I get CT’d.

00:01:15–00:01:33 · Kyle Moring
But it is what it is.

00:01:40–00:02:15 · Sergeant John Beasley
What did you, uh, did you get hired on? I know you were looking at, uh…

00:01:40–00:02:15 · Kyle Moring
The counseling?

00:01:40–00:02:15 · Sergeant John Beasley
Yes.

00:01:40–00:02:15 · Kyle Moring
So like, technically, that right around the same time as this, they lost the grant money, and then it’s been like in limbo ever since.

00:01:40–00:02:15 · Kyle Moring
So, but I got my, they denied my unemployment here, and then I got a reversed. I won the appeal.

00:01:40–00:02:15 · Kyle Moring
It’s just, it’s a whole big deal.

00:02:15–00:02:36 · Kyle Moring
I mean, it’s, they think I’m just picking on them. It’s not just them. I mean, it’s, you know, I filed complaints about the city too.

00:02:15–00:02:36 · Sergeant John Beasley
Oh, really?

00:02:15–00:02:36 · Kyle Moring
Not you guys.

00:02:15–00:02:36 · Sergeant John Beasley
Okay.

00:02:15–00:02:36 · Kyle Moring
It’s a whole big deal. I mean, retail food inspection reports not being done correctly. You know, it’s…

00:02:42–00:03:03 · Kyle Moring
I’ve been going back, like the city just tried to like charge me like $1,700 for records I requested.

00:02:42–00:03:03 · Kyle Moring
You know, because there was all this stuff, the remodel, stuff was being undervalued.

00:02:42–00:03:03 · Kyle Moring
That’s kind of how I found out about the asbestos thing. I got the asbestos surveys because I requested the permit information when they started the replacement.

00:03:03–00:03:18 · Kyle Moring
Well, the City came out after I did the record request and Walmart paid for the permit then. So they’d already done the work.

00:03:03–00:03:18 · Kyle Moring
And that’s when I just started digging deeper. They undercharged on the permit fees. The valuation of the whole project was not correct.

00:03:20–00:03:39 · Sergeant John Beasley
Have you retained an attorney on it yet?

00:03:20–00:03:39 · Kyle Moring
Yeah, pretty much so.

00:03:20–00:03:39 · Kyle Moring
So like the Department of Labor is investigating for like, the Whistleblower Protection Program?

00:03:20–00:03:39 · Sergeant John Beasley
Yeah.

00:03:20–00:03:39 · Kyle Moring
And they’ve got an investigator that handles that. If it goes to the next stage, you know, then their lawyers handle it.

00:03:39–00:04:06 · Kyle Moring
But like the current employees, which I’m the designated representative of Walmart store 131 current employees, that’s a separate active enforcement inspection with OSHA. That’s going on right now.

00:03:39–00:04:06 · Kyle Moring
I just don’t… It doesn’t surprise me.

00:04:20–00:04:48 · Sergeant John Beasley
Kyle, I’m fixin’ to scat. Hey you good? You need anything?

00:04:20–00:04:48 · Officer Kimberly Torres DeJesus
No, sir.

00:04:20–00:04:48 · Sergeant John Beasley
Okay. Good to see you, Kyle.

00:04:20–00:04:48 · Kyle Moring
Good to see you.

00:04:20–00:04:48 · Sergeant John Beasley
You need something holler.

00:04:20–00:04:48 · Kyle Moring
All right.
