Sergeant Nowak,
I am not trying to cause trouble for any one. I am interested in having a reasonable view of the towing activities in the Newport News area. I believe that certain companies may be taking advantage of innocent, or relatively innocent behavior of Newport Citizens.
I can spend $30, maybe $40 dollars of my income on obtaining this information. I need about two weeks of activity to see a pattern. I would be happy to come and pull the records myself, and pay your copy charge. I am retired and I have the time.
I wrote to the complaint department of the BOTRO and requested a definition of what they considered 'Predatory towing'. So far, they have not answered the question, they only challenged me to explain if my son could read English. They had no concern for the actual existence of a valid contract, or if any one now cared if parking occurred on the property.
What I am politely trying to say is, IT APPEARS that no one is interested in my complaint, and they will put what ever obstacles are in the way to impede or prevent my complaint from being filed. It appears that everyone I have contacted in this matter displays a vested interest in my going away and leaving them to their business.
My name is all over LEOAFFAIRS police website. Primarily in the Riviera Beach section of Florida. I protested unjust payment of rent to a landlord, He posted a rent demand notice on my door, but did not go to court for the legal eviction. The police there broke through my locked door and arrested me for trespass, and battery on a cop, and taping their conversation during the arrest. All these charges were false charges, and the Asst Chief of Police that headed the raid knew it. When I sent my evidence of the police forcible felony to the State Attorney(prosecutors office) they falsified some paperwork on the charges, and did a nolle pross with probable cause. In my civil court case, the judge would not hear my case against the land lord because recent case law in Florida says that once the State Attorney and the police have investigated a situation and decided who was guilty, there can be no court review of the criminal event.
FLORIDA is a police state, anything the police do legal, or illegal is covered up by the State Attorney's office, and blocked from review by order of the appellate courts. I have the FBI and the Justice Department working on these matters, and if you notice the date of the FBI RAID on the Rivera Beach Police Department, it is about 10 days after my paperwork was sent to them proving the prior state attorney did a cover up (obstruction of justice, and official misconduct).
I am tired of fighting police, and corrupt agencies. I am not going to continue to fight you for information that should be ready available, and freely given. I am not going to fight the BOTRO complaint's department people for what constitutes an unlawful operator. I am going to write some complaints, and then I am going to drop the subject. I have spent 7 years fighting for truth and justice in Florida, and that is enough for me. If you are happy to allow corrupt practices by your buddies in the towing industry, that is entirely your affair.
I need a contract price on the two weeks of information that I requested. If you are not willing to give me a reasonable price, and hold to it, my attempt to use the FIOA act in this case will have proved useless. I will make complaints to the appropriate offices accordingly. THEN I will walk away, knowing I have done my part to serve God and my fellow citizens in standing up for their rights, and my son's rights.

Sergeant Nowak,
Thank you for your prompt response. I am sorry I got angry with the delay and evasion I feel I am experiencing in this matter. As I indicated in my last e-mail to you, I have had more than my share of unfortunate experiences with police in other states. Unfortunately, after a while, it becomes difficult to distinguish thorough police work from what I have experienced in the past.
Towing Services are a vital profession in our society of cars. Without these services our roads would be littered with rusting eyesores, and the flow of business would be impaired by improper parking. Most towing operators are responsible in their profession, but there is an abundance of operators competing in the market for towing services, and unfortunately some use illegal tactics to stay in business, or unjustly prey the public.
I hope that I can present an honest factual argument to the DMV.BOTRO and allow them to resolve my complaint concerns in a fair and just for all concerned.
Sincerely
Bill Fyler

A surprise revelation ! There are 5 class "A" towing services in town towing over 500 cars a month. That's a lot of activity when you are ONLY talking about non-consensual Private Towing. So in addition to repositions which is probably small, and Police ordered tows which is not great, you have 5 companies supplementing their income with 15 random, unrequested towing incidents each day. How much of that is really legal or illegal theft ?

Sergeant Kowak,
I have just received your product cost letter Your research (185 tows in 11 days) indicates there are over 500 private towing events for the month of August. That is a VERY BUSY industry. With your population of 190.000 residents, or about 60,000 cars, you are towing almost 1% of the cars in your towns vehicles EVERY MONTH. Your Towing Industry must see a lot of tourist trade. Does that rate of towing seem about right to you? At $120/tow, that is $60,000/mth or $720,000/yr in towing charges, which is all non-consecentual towing. Do the other two categories of towing see this much activity?
