monthly gross receipts in round numbers ... he was taking cash. He <br />had, an accountant... the accountant said he kept a journal and the <br />department says well that's not good enough. Produce documents <br />that you don't have and it went from stating that this suspicious or <br />red flagged by the time you reach page ... let's see ... I want to quote <br />it exactly. These were termed as patently false. So it went from <br />being treated... these journal gross receipts and his report as . <br />suspicious because they.were round numbers as to patently false. <br />Mr. Goodenow: What page is that? <br />Mr. Strauss: . . Let me get that for you. <br />Mr. Goodenow: You're looking at the DLNR's submission... <br />Mr. Strauss: That's correct. <br />Mr. Goodenow: To the October 28th meeting which I got offline but we don't have <br />that. <br />Mr. Strauss: Okay. <br />Mr. Roth: At the hearing though one of the things that happened is Mr. <br />DeMello who paid for...the best way I can explain these things <br />from my understanding is like a time share for fishing.

Mr. <br />Murtagh admittedly has no evidence whatsoever that the numbers <br />represent his actual gross receipts even though he provided, <br />testimony and statement from his journal and his statement from <br />his accountant... and this is the fun part. It is in fact literally <br />impossible that the reported numbers could be accurate. What <br />universe are these people living in? <br />Mr. Goodenow: I understand that ... I'm. not so interested in the merits of what went <br />on with DLNR but going back to the case where you had the <br />document that was altered. How did that prosecution or I guess <br />investigation begin? Mr. Murtagh submitted to you ... the police <br />or... <br />9i <br />
