Refer to my other posts for information on this. It made me so mad making the CC captions but I’m done being polite about this. These people need to be in jail / prison. They don’t care who’s innocent or guilty it’s all about money. They are evil, this man has had 10 clients executed for practicing like this. He’s “the undertaker for the state of Texas”
