January - May 2013 WAO Monthly Operation Reports Finally Filed!

My Texas OAG Open records revealed that the Office had to inform the WAO that they must continue filing their monthly operations report until the Talley Road land was sold (hmmm sounds familiar--didn't I tell the Texas OAG the same thing back in January 2013?).  Turns out, the WAO failed to make the land payments from March - May 2013!  For shame!

Needless to say, there were several "unusual" expenditures made even though there are no animals living at the Talley Road property.  Let's examine the reports that were finally filed with the Texas Western District Courts last month:

January 2013

Wow, ATM withdrawals and fees charged; gas station charges (presumably gasoline purchases); Home Depot purchase; NFS charges; welder supply charge; and Kim Myers seemed to make out like a "bandit" with her "contract work after closing date" charges.



February 2013

This month Kim Meyers made out like a bandit once more for "contract work after closing date"; overdraft fees charged; Home Depot purchase; and several gas station charges made (presumably for gasoline again); plus monthly charges made for credit card processing even though the WAO no longer has need for this service.



March 2013

Okay, in this report, no land payment was made to the lien land holders, but the following charges were made instead:  a lot of NFS fees; Home Depot charge; ATM bank withdrawals; gas station charges (presumably gasoline); and monthly charges for credit card processing which the WAO no longer has a need for this service since the website is down and they are no longer accepting credit card donations.



April 2013

Finally, this report's charges were much smaller.  No land payment made to the land lien holders, but there were a couple of gas station purchases (presumably for gasoline) and the usual monthly fee for credit card processing that the WAO no longer uses anymore.  Gasp!  No Home Deport or ATM charges?  




May 2013

And finally, the last report filed thus far by the WAO to the Texas Western District Bankruptcy Court...the May MOR.  In this report, Kim Meyer once again collected over $1100 for "contract work after closing."  I wonder what she is doing to collect this kind of paycheck now that the WAO is closed...hmmm.

Also, there's the usual gas station charges (presumably for gasoline) and the monthly charges for credit card processing which the WAO does not use anymore.



I believe the total amount of suspicious charges (ATM, gas, and Home Depot charges) comes to about $1,225.85 over a five month period.  Now that may not seem like a lot of money, but if you add in all the NFS charges and useless credit card processes (totaling $738.96), you realize that $1,964.81 simply evaporated and no one, not even the Texas OAG, cared about this waste/theft.  That money could have gone to a sanctuary paying medical bills for a sick former WAO animal.  But no.  The majority of the funds appears to have gone to Michelle Cryer's pocket and the rest to the bank and credit card service providers. 

Shameful!  Just shameful.
