She listened and answered questions I had today. Some of these questions I have tried to get answered for 3 years. In the past I Was given a vague answer or just we will deal with that later.
Deese and her assistant listened carefully to my concerns. I can’t remember her name. Her assistant reassured me she would make notes for Beese. Beese would give me the final report.
