Very good. Welcome.
So we'll go with item number two, public
comment. We have two, for the public, we have two
opportunities for the public to comment on items not
necessarily on the agenda. There's a limitation of five
minutes per person. And the comments must be directed

will be at the end of the meeting.
So do we have anyone with public comment?
BOARD MEMBER FLYNN: None down south.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: Nothing down south.
Nothing north.
Then, let's start with item number three, and
we'll go with Board and Executive Director
announcements, reports and updates. Let's start with
Director Ingram.
MR. INGRAM: Thank you, Mr. Chair.
I've provided the financials to the Board
members. If you have any questions about the
financials, I'd be happy to answer those questions.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: It looks to me like the
financials, we're in pretty good shape right now.
MR. INGRAM: Yes, sir.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: And we're, what, about
40 percent -- no. About, what, 25, 30 percent
through -- what, 40 percent through the budget?
MR. INGRAM: That's correct, a little bit over
40 percent. We're about 30 percent as far as our
standings. So we're looking good, in good shape.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: Okay. All right. Very
good.

I believe, you have a presentation you'd like to make.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: Sure. Is former Board
member Mark Zane in the audience?
MR. INGRAM: Yes, he is. He's coming forward,
sir.
MR. ZANE: Good morning, Mr. Chairman.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: Good morning, Mark.
It's my pleasure to recognize your time on the PILB
Board. Though specifically representing private
investigators, your work in the area of private patrol,
repossession and process serving brought a vast array of
experience and expertise to the Board. And during your
tenure as chairman, you provided insight to the various
aspects as practitioners, but also brought humanity,
empathy and understanding for those working in the
field. This always impressed me.
So I truly thank you for your time and
commitment to the industry and to the PILB.
MR. ZANE: Thank you very much, Mr. Chairman.
I'd like to thank the current Board and the staff,
present and gone, for assisting me and meeting the

conflicts of those things that you give me accolades
for. Because without all of that, including Mr. Ingram
especially, that wouldn't have been such a good speech
you just gave.
MR. INGRAM: So, Mark, on behalf of the Private
Investigators Licensing Board, we'd like to award you
with this retirement plaque from the Board. It says
"Mark Zane, Board Chair, Private Investigators Licensing
Board: In recognition and sincere appreciation of your
distinguished service from October 2009 through June
2018. Congratulations and best wishes on your
retirement from the Board."
(Applause.)
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: Thanks again, Mark.
Okay. So review and approval or approve
transcripts from the September 10th, 2018 Board meeting.
BOARD MEMBER FLYNN: Ray Flynn. I'd move to
approve.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: We have a motion to
approve. Do we have a second?
BOARD MEMBER COLBERT: Second.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: Second by Board Member
Colbert.
All right. Is there any discussion on the
minutes, or on the transcripts?

It passes unanimously. And I'm not going to
use the gavel on every one of these things.
MR. INGRAM: Mr. Chair, if I may, Kevin Ingram,
for the record. I do have a couple of points that I'd
like to share under item number three, if possible.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: Yeah, let's go back to
item number three, because I got moving and forgot that
you did have an item you wanted to point out. Thank
you.
MR. INGRAM: Thank you, sir.
So what we are going to start doing at every
Board meeting is give the Board and those in attendance
a breakdown of the audits, the number of work cards, the
number of applicants, so that the Board and those in the
audience can see what Board staff takes care of during
the quarters.
So I've provided an additional handout to the
Board this morning. And if you take a look at the nice
little graphs that Chief Irizarry put together for you
here, I'll kind of walk through that so that we can get
it on the record.

In the time frame of September 1st through
November 30th of this year, our staff processed 2,134
work card applications. Of those work card
applications, 1,478 are now active. 37 were denied.
And all 37 have appealed. 95 are in pending status.
And pending status could be anyone that's awaiting to be
made provisional. It could be because we're missing
information, or we have an incomplete app, or that, you
know, it takes a little bit more of a background to get
them cleared, maybe we're waiting on court documents.
So there are 95 currently pending.
There are 483 in a provisional status.
Provisional status just, basically, means that we have
not received the fingerprints back from the Nevada
Criminal Repository and the FBI. Once we receive those
back, they will either be cleared for an active card or
possibly denied based on criminal history. And of those
cards, 41 were withdrawn. And that can be at the
request of the applicant. Or it could be we've waited
beyond the 30 days to gather additional information from
them, and did not receive it, so they were withdrawn.
Are there any questions about the work cards
before I go to the next page?
BOARD MEMBER COLBERT: No.
MR. INGRAM: Hearing none, I'll go ahead and go

forward. On the back side of the page, you'll see the
same time frame. We received a total of 14 corporate
applications for licensure. Of the 14 corporate
applications, we approved 13. The one that was not
approved was a failure to meet the minimum
qualifications.
We received 36 individual applications. And
you can see the breakdown, as far as the categories that
we received them in. Canine, we received three.
Private investigator, we received 11. Private patrol,
we received 19. Process servers, we received two.
Repossessors, we received one. And all but one of those
applications was approved. There was a private patrol
officer that was aligning himself with that same
corporation that was denied who did not meet the minimum
qualifications, so that one was denied.
As far as the complaints, there were 15 total
complaints received by the Board. Now, these complaints
are over and above unlicensed activity complaints. So
these are complaints on license holders. We received a
total of 15, ranging from failure to pay employees
correctly, working without registered work cards,
insurance lapsing or -- and there were a couple that
were EEO complaints as well. I'm sorry. There was one
EEO complaint.

All of the complaints were satisfied, and we
did not write any citations of the licensees based on
the outcome. There were five that were referred over to
the Nevada Labor Commission for some payroll issues.
All of those are currently being resolved or have been
resolved. So no citations have been issued for that.
The one complaint that went to EEOC was really not under
our jurisdiction, and so the EEOC picked that up.
We had two of them that were complaints that
were not justified. I'll give you the example of one of
them. We had a complaint against a security company
working without a license. And when we investigated, it
was an employee of the 7-Eleven. And 7-Eleven was
employing them as a security officer. And as you know,
a bona fide employee of a company does not have to be
licensed with us. So two of those were nonjustified.
And then the last one was pending with the City
of Las Vegas. The City of Las Vegas had -- there was
violations of the city code, not Chapter 648. And the
city's taken care of that.
Right now, on all of our complaints, when they
come in, we have approximately one-week turnaround on
finalizing the investigations, with the exception of
some ongoing investigations that we are working directly
with IRS. We are working with some of the other local

law enforcement agencies who have taken a lead on it.
And then we also have the federal government involved in
a couple of the investigations that we're doing. So
they take the lead on that. Once a decision's made,
then we'll be able to bring those before the Board, if
need be.
As far as the unlicensed activity citations, we
issued 10 during this quarter. Four of the 10 have been
paid in full. One of the citations has been sent to the
Controller's Office for failure to pay, and it is
currently in collections. And we have five citations
that are still within the 30-day appeal process.
I'd answer any questions with the Board may
have.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: Do any members of the
Board have any questions?
BOARD MEMBER COLBERT: No.
BOARD MEMBER FLYNN: Yeah. This is Ray Flynn.
Kevin, is it possible for us to, for you guys
to produce a year-end now, or would that be something
that would be easier going forward?
MR. INGRAM: Going forward.
BOARD MEMBER FLYNN: Okay.
MR. INGRAM: Correct. The old database doesn't
have the ability to search a lot of this information

that we're now capturing in our new database.
BOARD MEMBER FLYNN: M-hm (affirmative).
MR. INGRAM: So I can do my best to maybe throw
some numbers together. But, I think, going forward
would be the most accurate presentation of where we are.
BOARD MEMBER FLYNN: Then, Mr. Chair, I would
ask that in the -- I'd really like that report, because
it's a good overview of the activity of the PILB. And I
would ask that that be part of our regular meetings, a
quarterly report out.
But I'd also like to see, if it's okay with
you, a year-end report also, going forward.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: I agree with you, Board
Member Flynn. I think, this is really good data for us
to really get a perspective on what's going on as far as
unlicensed activity and all of the other things.
Kevin, I did have a question. What's the
normal turnaround on your unlicensed activity citations,
or do you -- I know you have some that are within the
30-day appeal process. But what's the normal turnaround
on this?
MR. INGRAM: Well, the minute that we receive a
complaint, we open an investigation in our new database.
And it's assigned to Supervising Investigator Vincent
Saladino. After his review, he'll assign it to an

investigator to go ahead and start gathering the data.
Obviously, we have Investigator Mahan there in the north
that we have assigned a couple to. He's done a
fantastic job following up on those. And then in the
south.
General turnaround, as far as gathering
information, is anywhere from, what, one to three weeks,
Vinny?
MR. SALADINO: (Nodded head.)
MR. INGRAM: So about one to three weeks on the
fact-gathering, depending on how complicated it is. As
I said, some of the investigations uncover criminal
violations. And at that time, we involve the
appropriate authorities for that.
As far as closure of the investigation, it
could be as quickly as one day. Or, as I've said, we
have some that just came in yesterday, as a matter of
fact, that have not been assigned yet. And a couple of
them look like it might take months to complete the
investigation, based on a cursory review.
But general turnaround, as long as we have all
the information, is approximately one week.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: Okay. Good. Thank
you.
Any other questions from the Board?

ahead and give a overview our new website?

MR. INGRAM: Okay. I know we had briefly
talked about this. And, I guess, I didn't want to get
too far into the agenda.
So while Lori's coming up and getting the
computer set up to give you the overview of our new
website, I think, Mr. Flynn, Board Member Flynn had
something he wanted to discuss.
BOARD MEMBER FLYNN: Sure. I just want to let
you know that during the last quarter, I attended the
International Association of Security Regulators
Conference in Scottsdale. It's something that Kevin
made mention he's been actively involved with this
association for years. He was the current -- was the
president. He served out his term. And I'd asked over
a year ago the ability to go to observe what happens at
this. And he was able to fit it into the current

budget.
It was two days long, and it was definitely
well worth my time. There was not one session or a
breakout session that I did not learn something from,
everything from the history of regulating authorities to
policies and procedures that are commonplace throughout
not only our nation, but also other countries. I had a
great conversation with a representative from Canada, a
lot of shared interests.
The other thing that I really enjoyed was
interacting with the members of the security industry.
I'm one of the two Board members that are a citizen
at-large. And so I never worked in the security
industry. So it was really interesting to understand
their perspective and how they view regulations and,
also, the process of grading the regulations.
So I highly encourage Kevin to continue to try
to get funding for this, and encourage other members of
the Board. If we could have send one every year -- they
have an annual conference -- that would be great. And
if nobody wants to go, I'd volunteer to go to the next
one. That's how well worth it was to me. So.
MR. INGRAM: To add to that, we just had a
board meeting last week. The current president, Fabian
Blache from Louisiana, and then me, as immediate past

president, and we just approved a new membership for
South Africa. And we have members from the United
Emirates, India, eight provinces in Canada, the National
Council in France. So we truly are an international
association. And the sharing of information has been
phenomenal and has helped me to be successful in my
position.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: So, and where is the
next conference next year?
MR. INGRAM: Right now, there's three areas
that are being considered: Washington D.C.; California,
here on the west coast; and, also, Canada, for the next
conference. It'll be held either October or November.
We're working out the details. Our theme for this
conference is going to be everything security and
investigative related to the cannabis industry and how
it's taken the states and countries by storm.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: Very good. Now I can
understand why Ray volunteered to go to the next one, if
it's in Canada. All right. Very good.
MR. INGRAM: And at this time, I think, we're
ready for the presentation from Ms. Irizarry if you
don't have any other questions.

now, probably about six or so months. But we haven't
actually --
(The Reporter indicated it's difficult to hear
Las Vegas.)
MS. IRIZARRY: Okay. I was asked to give a
brief presentation on our new website, go over with you
on what our new witness looks like.
Am I talking too fast, Shannon?
(There was a brief discussion with the Reporter
regarding an inability to completely hear Las Vegas.)
MS. IRIZARRY: Okay. We tailored our website
to model all of the other state websites. So if you go
to the Governor's website or to the Controller's Office,
all of our websites now have the same template type. So
it's a little bit more user-friendly.
It's going to give you a view of the tasks at
the top. So when we go onto our website, there's an
initial landing. There's a carousel. All these are
interactive. You can click on here. It'll take you to
a Google map of our location. There's an actual image
of our Las Vegas location. You have Crime Stoppers.

industries, the people we work in conjunction with, law
enforcement. So if a security officer needs to report
something, they can always come to our website instead
of looking for another state agency's website to find.
At the bottom, there are some key button items.
So the number one thing people usually come to our
website for is to apply for a work card.
Click the Identify for a Work Card. If you're
an employee -- employer, and you want to verify
someone's work card to make sure it's still currently
active, you can verify a work card.
Apply for a license. The apply for a license
function right now is not up and running. If you click
here, it takes you to a part of our website with some
information on the requirements to be a license holder,
and to contact our Licensing Specialist, Gisela. This
has the electronic license applications, don't have the
paper app at the moment for a license holder.

You can meet our Board members here, read bios for each
of them. Our newsletters. Our statutes, NRS 648, and

The Public Access is one of the -- is going to
be probably the number one thing where you're going to
click on when you come onto our website. The Public
Access is going to be where you would verify, as the
public or as a Board member or as a licensee, if someone
has a work card, if it's active, the status of their
work card, our license holders. All of it is in one
spot.
So if you are looking for an individual person
who has a work card or their provisional, and you want
to see the status of it, you would type in their work
card number here. Or you can look them up by first and
last name. Some instructions here on the side. If I'm
looking or a John Smith, you have to type in a portion
of his first name with an asterisk and a portion of his
last name with an asterisk in order to find him. If you
type in the full name John Smith, you may get exactly
that person, but he may be John Smith, hyphen, Jones.
You won't find him unless you put that asterisk in. So
we recommend sticking that star in there.
You can look for a particular company name. If
you want to find -- let me give you an example. So
here's my test subject. So if I wanted to look for an

individual, I know that John Cruz has a work card, and
he's a license holder. I typed in J. You can add a few
more letters if you need to.
But John Cruz, any one of these, they're all
the exact same person, but it tells you here that he has
three different licenses. So any one of them, I get all
the information. I don't have to click on each one
individually. It tells you right at the top, John Cruz.
The first up information right here is going to
be his work card information. He's an active work card
holder. The status is right here, if he's active,
provisional, pending, denied, withdrawn. You're only
able to add someone, new license holders if they are
active or provisional. When they were given their
temporary card. When they were given their permanent
plastic card. And when their card is going to expire.
This is to keep in mind that someone may have a
provisional today, but in a couple months from now, when
we get their fingerprints back, they could be denied.
So you may have the paper in front of you. It's always
good to go on our website and double-check to make sure
they're still in provisional status before you hire
them.
Tells you what companies they're currently
working for. It does not list past companies. It is

the responsibility of the license holder to add and take
people on and off their roster.
Something I want to point out, as new license
holders that are at the company, if you add someone to
your roster today, they will automatically be on your
site that you're looking at. When you add them on
through your portal, as we call, it's realtime, you see
them on your portal right then and there. If you were
to come to our website and check to see if it's on the
public site, it takes approximately the end of the
business day for it to refresh. So the next day, you
will see it on this site if you want to verify it. So
John Smith added to your company, when you look on the
website, it won't actually show you that, because it
will probably come up the next day. It refreshes
overnight. So keep that in mind.
My person here, he works for Cruz
International. He is the qualifying agent, private
patrolman, private investigator. It tells you his
individual licenses are two are in abeyance.
So this one verification gives you all the
information on John Cruz that we have in our system for
him. This is a verification. This is not proof of
licensure. They cannot use this form to show that they
are licensed with us. This is to verify. They get a

certificate. They get a work card. They get a license
card. Those are proof of their license with us. This
is just for you to verify the information.
Back to our website real quick.
So Public Access. If you ever want to look up
a list of all of the security companies, all the P.I.
companies, any repossessor companies, you would click
into the list of the active licensees by category. You
would fill out the form. It an email, takes about 10,
15 minutes, a list of any, all active companies in that
category. So if you want to look for all the
repossessors here in the state, it can give you a list.
You type in your name, your email, and what you're
actually looking for or what category of license you're
looking for. We do to the produce lists of individual
work card holders, only license holders.
What I will say is that this information is
being updated constantly. So if a change you made
today, once again, it may not be updated until the next
day on that list itself.
MR. INGRAM: Lori, do you want to talk a little
bit about the corrupt file, you know, versus the new and
how we're going through that daily.
MS. IRIZARRY: So the main reason for the
update is because our previous system that we were using

was a little bit outdated, a little bit older. So
transitioning everything from the older system to the
new system, there has been some issues. And what we
are -- like somebody asked if our older, like old
addresses, some of the information was -- so verify
license holders coming up are probably --
(The Reporter interrupted due to an inability
to completely hear Las Vegas.)
MS. IRIZARRY: So we are trying to work through
some of the data issues that we're having. The way that
we're expecting to do that is to let our licensees know,
go on the website, here's what address to you want
displayed to the public, mailing or physical, what's
your contact information you want.
So when we finally clean up the data
information, that's what would be displayed on the
active licensee list. Some of the information is there
currently. So you can still go on in and find a company
and see some address. But we're trying to clean up,
because some addresses are still missing, some contact
information is still missing, because switching from one
to another there's always some hiccups in between.
On this Public Access page is where you file a
complaint. You can either download the form or actually
input the form. It goes directly to our -- to the

investigator. And, once again, like Kevin said earlier,
it takes about a week turnaround time to get it back to
you.
The Meetings tab is anywhere you would find
upcoming meetings, Board meetings, agendas, minutes.
These are all the current meetings for the past year.
And then you can go to our archived meetings and
workshops. If we are looking at changing any NRS, any
NRSs, NACs, any public workshops, this is where you'll
find the workshop and meeting dates here. And any of
our old, past meetings all the way to 2005. That's
minutes as well.
The Licensing tab is, if you want to be become
licensed, it lets you know right at the top this is not
for a work card. I know, in other states, the words
work card and license are interchanged. Here in Nevada,
a license is held by the company, a work card is for the
individual. So it lets you know right at the top this
is for a license only, tells you how to apply for a
license. Right now, you contact Gisela.
If you were going to be licensed and you
needed to know information about the exam, it's got exam
dates, tells you exactly what's going to be on the exam,
what you need to study, the book that you would need to
purchase if you are going to be a P.I., where the exam

Work cards. Another top button on our website
is going to be when someone wants to apply. Here you
find all the printable documents, the fingerprint
locations, the application itself, and you want to print
it out and bring it into the office. At the moment, you
are only able to apply in our offices. But we've just
finalized our work card application online. And this is
a kind of an example of what it will look like.
So this is the work card application. It has a
landing page. And what it tells you right here off the
bat is you have to complete the entire application from
start to finish and pay. You can't save and come back
to it. The work card application's only about six or
seven pages, so it shouldn't -- it's nothing that you
would need, like a license application, where you're
talking 20, 30 pages. It tells you the fees right at
the top, tells you what you're going to need before you
start the application, what you'll need to turn in,
either now or later, for it to be completed. And once
you read this, continue to the application.
Our application is much more user-friendly. It
goes tab by tab. Fill everything out. And when you get
to the bottom, click submit. And you're able to pay
online. Now, expedite fee, you weren't able to pay that

expedite fee online before, you had to come into our
office. We're now allowing you to pay expedite.
What expedite means -- if you pay the regular
fee, it takes about one to two weeks currently to get a
work card. If you pay the expedite fee, it takes about
two business days to be able to rush it now, if it had
come into our office now, as far as a website account.
It's going to make it a little bit more user-friendly.
This would be the work card process. It also
explains reasons the license would be denied and some
employment restrictions that our work cards have on
them.
The CFI tab is right now fairly minimal. The
goal with this is CFIs, Certified Firearms Instructors,
are able to input all their firearms information on our
website instead of having to drop off and mail their
information to us, which will help with the process
turnaround time. Pretty standard forms, has any form
that you may need would be here. Instead of going to
each individual tab, basically, the forms, all of our
forms will be listed here.
Our contact information. Our hours of
operation. We are closed for lunch every day 12:00 to
1:00. We do take credit cards in our office now. We
just still don't deal with cash.

And our online portal. This online portal is
where, when you are a license holder, where you would go
to adjust your roster, check to see if you have a fine
issued to you, how you could pay it, renew your license,
add or take away any of your -- update your contact
information, add a branch location, add an individual
sheet from your company that may not be a corporate
officer, but you want to add Mary as your person who
wants to update your roster, you can add it and do all
of it in your online portal.
Here are some instructions on how to create an
account, manage your roster, and renew your license.
When you click on the portal, what it will look like, or
this is what it looks like.
Every single new license holder, regardless if
you are on our old system or you're becoming licensed
today, you must request access to our site. None of
your old information from the old site transferred over
to the new site. Passwords aren't effective, so we
can't transfer passwords from one site to another. So
you are requesting to request access to our site. So
you would come on here and request access. What we're
looking for mainly is your email, first and last name,
date of birth, and social.
That's how it links everything, first name,

last name, date of birth, and social. And we're going
by what's on your state ID, because that's how we --
that's how we input you in our system. So if you go by
Bob, and your name's Robert, you need to go with that,
or it won't link your account, kind of a tip there,
because that's creating a little bit of problem. If you
have a hyphenated last name, and you only go by Jones,
but you're Jones, hyphen, Smith, you need to put
everything that's on that. Whatever you need with your
fingerprints is how we have you in the system, which is
how you would input it on this as well.
Once you log in and create an account, it takes
about 10 to 15 minutes. You'll get an email sent to
you. That email, you click on it, and then you're able
to access our account. That 10 or 15 minutes is what
it's doing is it's looking for you, gathering if you
have a license, a work card, if you have been denied.
What it's doing, it's creating one account, and then you
can log into one site and keep all of your stuff on one
site.
Many of our licensees have relogged in during
their renewal process. This online portal is not for
work card holders. It's only for license holders. If
you're a license holder and you have a work card, you'll
see your work card on there. But this is not for

And other than that, I'll leave it there, if
you have any questions, from the Board.

you would, Lori.

or follow-up?

I started with this since it went into effect.
And with very little help, had some help Kevin, but very
little, it was very easy to handle as a licensee. I
think, it's a great improvement by everybody that's
involved in it.
That's all I had.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: Board Member Colbert?

you. Because, number one, I think, the old website,
wasn't it pilb.org or something like that? Now it's
consistent with all the state websites. I think, that's
great. It's, what, pilb.nv.gov, right?
MS. IRIZARRY: Yes, correct.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: That's great. And, I
think, it looks very user-friendly. It looks very
user-friendly. So, good job.
And how are we doing now, are we caught up on
all the renewals and everything else?
MS. IRIZARRY: Yes. So there's no more, caught
up right now. We are focusing on our work cards, apply

online. And then, from there, we're going to let
licensing apply. We're just doing one thing at a time
instead of kind of jumping in all at once.
And then the next step is we are planning, as
soon as the new year starts, we are going to email our
license holders, letting them know the training
sessions, so we can go more in-depth of here's what it
will look like, kind of a how-to, and just giving
instructions. Because in that, I would train them on
how to use it, them and their staff, whenever they want
to come in to train, use our system.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: All right. I think, it
looks great, much, much, much better than the old site.
It's improved.

we will not be making a decision on item 13 at this

to get a private investigation license is to be able to
access the public records in your state.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: Very good.
Do we have any questions from the Board?
BOARD MEMBER FLYNN: No, sir.
BOARD MEMBER NIXON: No, sir.
BOARD MEMBER GRONAUER: I have no questions.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: Do we have a motion?
Or excuse me. Do we have any public comment?

actually wanted to thank Shelly and Gisela, because they
were amazing during this process. Your state is very
responsive to the needs of the licensees, yeah.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: Thank you. Thank you
very much. We like to hear the good side. Thank you.
Okay. I'll accept a motion, then.

currently operate and have a private investigator
license out of California. And I have a couple of
clients that are moving into Nevada, and I would like to

It doesn't look as such. Was this the one that
someone had a question about the use of the term
security --
MS. HOLDRIDGE: That's correct.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: -- in your name?
MS. HOLDRIDGE: Yes, that's correct.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: Inasmuch as you do
investigations but not necessarily security?
MS. HOLDRIDGE: Yes, we do no security. The
name Brand Security is in reference to Brand Detection.
The Brand name is trademarked as copyright.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: Kevin, or the
investigator, did we have any questions as far as this
one?
MR. INGRAM: No, we did not. I reached out to
Ms. Holdridge to ask about the name. And when she
explained it that it's, you know, the brand protection
security, but it's actually they're doing
investigations, we just felt we needed to put that into
your background reports, so that the Board would
understand why the name said security as opposed to
investigations.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: And now it's on record

for the record. So if you wouldn't mind reading all of
that into the record.

Good morning.

BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: First, identify
yourself, please. Explain your background and what your
intentions are.
MS. MEREDITH: Okay. My name's Amanda
Meredith. I have been with AccuSearch, Inc., here in
Nevada since the company started in 2011 here. We
perform primarily private public records research. And
we also have access to the statewide CNC program. So
for that, we're required to have our license through the
Board here.
As the team lead and manager for our office
here in Nevada, I am the responsible party for decisions
and actions taken here. So I'd like to obtain the
license so that my license reflects that status.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: Very good.
Do we have any questions from the Board? Board
Member Flynn?
BOARD MEMBER FLYNN: None.

1677. This is subject to all statutory and regulatory

BOARD MEMBER FLYNN: Come on up.
MR. CAPONE: Good morning. Marcus Capone here
for representing Onyxcts.

MR. CAPONE: Yes, of course. I'm Marcus
Capone. I come from a special operations background.
And I started a company two years ago with several
partners. We went through a recent acquisition by a
larger defense contractor, and now we've changed the
name to Onyxcts, and we're building out their commercial
security division.
And we have potential opportunity in projects
in the state of Nevada and why we're applying for this
license.

spend some time in Nevada, it's "Neh-VAD-ah," not
"Neh-VAW-dah."
MR. CAPONE: Nevada.

to get clients.

to move forward with everything else.

have an office in Nevada until you have under contract?
MR. CAPONE: We would like to see if we're
going to, if we're able to move forward with anything.

to, you know --

presently and already am a Nevada's licensee. I have a
P.I. license and recently took the test and passed for
the private patrolman's license. I'm the qualifying
agent for, with the Nevada P.I. license for another
corporation.
And this would be for a different company,
under the private patrolman license for -- and the name
is deceiving. It was just -- it's going to be changed,
and we'll file something. This was just something that
it never got to be changed in the process. So it's
going to be something more security sounding. But it's

security and patrol. And I'm going to be the qualifying
agent.
So I'm here representing them, but it's going
to be here in this state, and they will be providing
security services and patrol services for people that
they know. And I would be supervising, I guess, in the
qualifying agent capacity.

Flynn?

question, just I'll put it to our counsel. I'm not sure
that we can, if it's something on the agenda that's
under one name, and she wants it approved under a
different name. That's the way I understood it, that
they're going to operate under a different name.
MR. INGRAM: Well, what we would have to do in
that case would be, when you approve it under this name,
they would have to establish themself in the state with
this name. And once they do a corporate name change,

MR. WICKERHAM: My background is a Marine Corps
veteran, and for 10 years, and I've been in the security
since 2007. I also qualified as a license holder for a
CFI. And we plan on doing a dba to Nevada Protective
Services, once we've been granted.
And our company is just mainly to provide the
service to community's businesses and individuals for
any sort of executive protection, personal protection,
and standard security.

transitioned into the private security industry
approximately 20 years ago.
I am the owner of CDA Incorporated. We are a

I am a graduate of the United States Naval Academy,
former naval aviator, a veteran of the first Persian
Gulf War. And for about the last 20 years, I've been in
several key risk management, leadership and security
positions, including vice president in the office of
global security at a large international bank.
Currently, I'm the executive vice president at
Beau Dietl & Associates, Beau Security Investigations,
based in New York. We're applying for a license here in
Nevada primarily because we have a large client who's
made a significant investment here, an existing client
here in Las Vegas, and they've requested we provide
security services for them going forward as they build
out on their investment. And that's why I'm here today.

Corporation out of New York. The company was originally
started by some New York cops and is currently run by
several different people that are both current and
retired law enforcement. They pride themselves in
hiring higher-end security, paying the higher-end wages
in order to keep that, retain their security personnel.
And I think that this is an awesome opportunity
for both me and the people that we potentially will
employ in the state of Nevada, as they do take good care
of their employees and their customers.

approximately 18 and a half years. I was involved in a

with my lights and sirens. During that pursuit, a
person pulled in front of me, and I was involved in an
accident. No one, luckily, no one was injured in that
accident.
But due to the fact that I had had current
dealings with the current sheriff, Chuck Allen, who's
not decided to retain office, he terminated me for the
pursuit. Which it's still in arbitration. But it was
just an unfortunate chain of events in light of that,
so.

compliance with all the requirements for a Code 3?
MR. YONKER: Yes, lights, sirens.
BOARD MEMBER COLBERT: M-hm (affirmative). All

question. You know, just a few, couple months ago, you
filed for bankruptcy?

BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: Could you please
explain that.
MR. YONKER: So when I lost my job, my wife
talked me into cashing out all of our savings and our
retirement, and in order to make the family feel more
comfortable, make her feel more comfortable with that,

that I unexpectedly lost my job. So when I did that,
she took all that money and then asked for a divorce.
So, unfortunately, due to that, and the fact that I've
been, you know, obviously trying to find good
employment, I have been unable to pay my bills as I
would like to. So it was kind of a forced situation,
and it was a last-ditch effort.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: What's the status of
that now?
MR. YONKER: It's still in litigation. But I'm
not sure exactly what's going on with it in the future.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: And your partners in
the LLC are aware of all of this and your financial
history?
MR. YONKER: And they're not, they're not

stable.

MR. YONKER: They have a great record, and

Davis (phonetic spelling), was licensed in Nevada, but
Mr. Yonker stated he only worked in California for him.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: Okay. Thank you.
Any other questions from the Board?
BOARD MEMBER GRONAUER: Yeah, Gronauer. I just
have, because this one case is going on, and it's
still -- the court date's not till 12-18. And 12-18 of
'18, that just a few days from now. But I have a
problem when we don't have everything settled, you know,
we have where it's going, what's going to happen with
it. So that's a problem with me. I'll have a difficult
time of approving it.
BOARD MEMBER FLYNN: Ray Flynn. I've got a
question, also.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: Okay. Go ahead.
BOARD MEMBER FLYNN: For the investigator.
MS. DONALD: M-hm (affirmative).
BOARD MEMBER FLYNN: Did we get any information
from Washoe County itself, on their version of the
events that led to the termination of employment?
MS. DONALD: I did not.
BOARD MEMBER FLYNN: Okay. Did we ask?
MS. DONALD: No.
BOARD MEMBER FLYNN: Okay. Yeah, my concern is

the length of employment and the fact that he was
terminated. I always feel more comfortable when I hear
both sides of the story. So for me to go forward on
this, I'd like our investigator to reach out to Washoe
County and find out some more about this incident.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: Any other comments or
questions?
Is there any public comment?
MR. INGRAM: None in the south.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: So. Well, first off,
let me ask. Do we have a motion?
Mr. Yonker, I think, there's a little
reluctance on behalf of the Board to move forward with
some unanswered questions.
And if we have a motion, I guess, my sense is,
for your motion, it would be to deny at this point, was
the consensus on the Board. I can wait for that motion.
But the other piece of it would be to table this until
our next meeting and have the investigator go back and
get a little bit more information for the Board.
Is that kind of the sense of the Board?
BOARD MEMBER COLBERT: Yes.
BOARD MEMBER FLYNN: Yeah, Mr. Chair, but as in
past practice, the applicant would have to agree to
postpone. If the applicant doesn't want to postpone,

then we go ahead and vote. And then, based on the
outcome, he could wait up to another year.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: Yeah, Kevin, is it a
year that they have to wait for reapplication?
MR. INGRAM: Traditionally, that's what the
Board has --
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: On up for a license. I
know, on a work permit, it's set in NAC that there's --
you have to wait a year. But I'm not sure what, how
that reads for a license.
MR. INGRAM: Right, it does not state that for
the license. However, traditionally, the Board has
followed the same parameters.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: Okay.
MR. INGRAM: However, if he requested to
postpone, we could agendize him for the next Board
meeting.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: Counsel, we could even
make, have a motion to delay this till the next Board
meeting, correct? I think, we've done that.
MS. BORDELOVE: I think, you may have done that
before. I mean, because we have it on the agenda here,
I'd be more comfortable if the applicant was in
agreement. If he really wants a decision today, I would
probably recommend the Board to make one. But, I think,

MR. YONKER: I'm okay with postponing this.
BOARD MEMBER FLYNN: Okay.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: Then --
MS. BORDELOVE: I don't think, you don't need a
motion to postpone. If he's agreeing to postpone, you
can. But I don't believe you necessarily need a motion
to table it, since you're not making a decision on it at
this time.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: Okay. So I'd let the
record should reflect that Mr. Yonker has indicated that
he's willing to wait, to delay the decision until the
next Board meeting.
And, I guess, then, the direction to staff
would be to follow up on some of the questions that the
Board has directed at them.
Is the Board comfortable with that?
BOARD MEMBER COLBERT: Yes.
BOARD MEMBER GRONAUER: Yes.
BOARD MEMBER NIXON: Yes.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: Okay. Mr. Yonker, I
think, that's the direction we will go.
MR. YONKER: All right. I was just confused.
I thought she talked to them. I would like, I'd just
like to state that I've been open and honest about

on that.
MR. YONKER: Okay.

MS. DONALD: It's been verified. There was no
question that he worked there. But they don't give out
information, you know, general information like that,
so. Everything, he has been open is honest. And, you
know, we've done what we can for the background. But I
wasn't able to obtain any information from his employer.
BOARD MEMBER FLYNN: When they --
MS. DONALD: And, you know, basic, basic, you
know, verification of hours.
BOARD MEMBER FLYNN: Ray Flynn, just to
comment, because I'm unsure of the process. Does the
applicant sign a release for information? Because
departments will not release that kind of information
without being provided a release.

BOARD MEMBER FLYNN: Right. But we're asking
for more.
MS. DONALD: Right, I understand.
BOARD MEMBER FLYNN: Okay.
MR. INGRAM: Mr. Chair, what we can do, in an
investigation of this type, you know, employers are more
reluctant, even with a release, to release that kind of
information. But we do have the ability to subpoena
those records. And, therefore, we'll follow through on
it and make sure we obtain all the necessary information
that the Board's requesting.
BOARD MEMBER GRONAUER: Gronauer. If you
don't -- it might be possible Mr. Yonker could go get
that information himself, with their letterhead and that
information, without the possibility of subpoenas and
all. But if we could do that in a timely manner, then
we won't have to go through the subpoena process, and it
just becomes a big, big mess that we don't need.
But, Mr. Yonker, I think, you can go, on your
own, and request that information, get it from their
letterhead from somebody in charge.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: I think, Mr. Yonker, I
think, you can work with out -- with the investigator

on to item number 28, William R. Thomas.

BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: Good morning. Good
morning. Could you please identify yourself, give us
your background, and then talk a little bit about the
company.
MR. THOMAS: Yes, sir. My name is William R.
Thomas, no kin to the company. I've been doing security
over 10 years. We have, currently have two properties
out here in Nevada. We are located in 34 states. The
chairman of the board for the company, Carl Thomas, is a
retired sheriff of Dallas County, started the company in
1981.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: All right. Do we have
any questions from the Board? Board Member Colbert?

or two here.

issues going on there, can you give me some

MR. THOMAS: Yes, sir. I am currently working
on trying to get all of those taken care of, repaired,
and trying to get my credit built back up. You know, my
salary that I receive every week pretty much goes to
doing that.
BOARD MEMBER COLBERT: What's the status with
the small claims judgment from North Carolina?
MR. THOMAS: The small claims judgment -- yes,
sir. The small claims judgment, that occurred well over
10 years ago. I had called and spoke with them, and
they had informed me they couldn't send me anything
because it has been deleted from their system, so no
longer, it no longer exists.
BOARD MEMBER COLBERT: Okay. Did you make any
payments at all on that claim?
MR. THOMAS: No, sir.
BOARD MEMBER COLBERT: Okay.
MR. THOMAS: The reason being is I was a
foreign contractor at the time. The person that had
sued me for that was a friend of mine. He was a
building contractor. He got sued for building the house
that he had built wrongly. Part of it was my mistake
for not having him sign a waiver when I put the flooring

in for him, because he was a friend. And that was a

BOARD MEMBER COLBERT: What created the issue
here with these items all going into collection, that
are currently in collection?
MR. THOMAS: Just basically not making enough
money to be able to keep up on everything, trying to
keep up on everything.
BOARD MEMBER COLBERT: And I notice that there
was also a number of other items going back a little
ways that are also charged off. Is that all part of
this financial problem, or what?
MR. THOMAS: No, sir. No. Those, that was,
basically, meeting the wrong woman. She had charged me
with quite a few charges. I entailed, had her charged
with obstruction of justice.

ex-wives. And then one was an ex-girlfriend. Just
issues. I was actually going through the police academy
back in 2013, graduated the police academy. But before
that, the women, it was just stupid moves on my part.

North Carolina. And you pay to go through the academy.

explain. You're not with anyplace for any length of
time. Two months, three months, six months, four
months. Do you want to explain that?
MR. THOMAS: The longest time I spent was with
Acme Security. I was a supervisor with them. Almost
all the companies I've worked for out here, I didn't
like them. I don't like the way they train their
employees. I don't like the way they handle their
employees. I don't like the way they handle payroll.

motion. I move that William R. Thomas be granted an

individual private patrol license, that his individual
license be placed in abeyance so that he may become the
qualifying agent for Thomas Protective Services, license
number 1309, subject to all statutory and regulatory
requirements.
There's been a motion. Is there a second?
The motion dies for lack of a second. And do I
have an alternate motion?
BOARD MEMBER FLYNN: Ray Flynn. I'll make a
motion for denial. And the main reason is I know I
asked questions related to his multiple shortness of
employments, but mainly the financial situation.
I don't want to speak for Board Member
Gronauer, but I'd be more comfortable if the owner of
the company was here, too. But because of the -- give
him some time to get his financial situation in order,
I'm going to make a recommendation to deny.
BOARD MEMBER NIXON: I second.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: We have a motion by
Board Member Flynn for denial, a second by Board Member
Nixon. Discussion on the motion?
BOARD MEMBER COLBERT: I also concur with that
same belief.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: Okay. I, too, am going
to support the motion.

Any additional comment by any Board member?
And, again, I guess, I'm going to -- so, for
the record, the reason I'm supporting the denial is we
have significant financial issues involved. And I can't
really weigh the criminal activity, the criminal
arrests, because all of them have either been expunged
or, you know, in other words, they're arrests, they're
not convictions. And so, therefore, that doesn't carry
any weight in my mind.
But, I think, the final aspect to be a
qualifying agent -- and it's all recency, too. It's
not, it's not something that waits in the long path. So
I'm going to support the motion based on that.
So that said, all in favor of the motion,
signify by saying "aye."
(Board members said "aye.")
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: Opposed to the motion?
Mr. Thomas, I think, there's some other routes
that you can go, if you want to continue pursuing this,
to be a qualifying agent for this company. One is
demonstrating some, you know -- well, there's some
routes that you have, I think, you can look at with the
company and maybe work out some arrangements with them.
So with that said, your application has been
denied.

them for 10 years. I manage the process serving
department as well as the office. We handle process
service for local attorneys, in Clark County also,
statewide and nationwide. We handle runner service,
deliveries to and from court.
And I am applying for my process server's
license to be put in abeyance today.

does not indicate placing her process server license in
abeyance. Can that be --

at her request?
MS. BORDELOVE: I think, we've had this one
come up before. I don't think it requires a Board
action to put the license in abeyance.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: Perfect.
MS. BORDELOVE: She can simply request that of
Director Ingram.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: Okay.
MS. BORDELOVE: So, I think, just make your
motion regarding her individual license. And then she
can take the abeyance, she can do that with staff.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: And then, but in
order -- the purpose for putting it in abeyance would be
she would become qualifying agent. That would require

MR. BAECHLER: Nice to meet you all in perfect,

BOARD MEMBER GRONAUER: Or perfect.
MR. BAECHLER: Or purpose, yes, right.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: Did I pronounce your

MR. BAECHLER: It's "Bak-lor."
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: "Bak-lor." Okay.
Sorry. Please, identify yourself, which you have, but
give us a little bit of your background and what, how
you're going to proceed and what's the plan.
MR. BAECHLER: Sure. My name is Jeremiah
Baechler. I've been involved in the investigative
process service for 19 years. My family has been
involved in this business for 30 years this year. I
primarily specialize in surveillance, difficult process
service, also doing interviews, background checks.
That's a brief synopsis of some of my
investigative process service and experience.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: Okay. Do we have any
questions from the Board? Board Member Gronauer?

BOARD MEMBER GRONAUER: Are you planning to
have an office in Nevada?
MR. BAECHLER: If it's meant to be, hopefully,
at some point. But immediately, not at the moment. My
main purpose in seeking the license is to be aboveboard,
legal. And particularly, if I need to come into the
state on a surveillance or a process service, I can do
so legally, which I've never done previously.
BOARD MEMBER GRONAUER: That is a good point
there.
MR. BAECHLER: Okay. No unlicensed activity
here.
BOARD MEMBER GRONAUER: No, I understand.
Okay. Thank you.
MR. BAECHLER: Yeah.

BOARD MEMBER COLBERT: Yes.
Sir, could you give me a little more
clarification on your 2018 bankruptcy?
MR. BAECHLER: Yes. Unfortunately, I had to
file bankruptcy. I exhausted all other options. The
situation mainly being is, is that -- and one of my main
sources of investigative work previously has been as a
subcontractor with my father's company. I have also
independently had my own investigative company up until
this year. And so the investigative work, as a
subcontract I was receiving from my father's company,
was slowing down. Which at the time, wasn't quite sure,
but my father ended up having terminal cancer.
And so, in conjunction with that at the time, I
also sought to take loans to compensate my loss of
income. And, two, I even sought to do some work as a
driver for Uber and Lyft, which, so I could have
flexibility to also be able to service my investigative
clients.
All those things combined, unfortunately, was
not adequate. And so, kind of also feeling like I was
at the end of my options with that, I had to reluctantly
file bankruptcy. I really wish I did not have to do
that. Shortly after that time, my father passed with
terminal cancer, third round of cancer.

Since then, at this time, my income and
business has done much better, which, unfortunately, is,
I want to say, as a result of so, I mean, I mean, one
way or the other. I inherited my father's business, a
large client base, and have done significantly better
financially since that time.
Also, during that time last year, my brother
was also -- my brother is fully disabled, so needing
family assistance. He is also now on a kidney
transplant list.
So these are some of the circumstances,
unfortunately, that led to filing bankruptcy.
BOARD MEMBER COLBERT: Thank you for the
clarification. Sorry for your loss.
MR. BAECHLER: Thank you.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: So are there any
follow-up questions by the Board members?
Do we have any public comment?
BOARD MEMBER GRONAUER: I just thought of one
more follow-up question, on the bankruptcy. This is
Gronauer.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: Sure.
BOARD MEMBER GRONAUER: Of course. Where is
this most recent bankruptcy now, where is that in the
courts?

MR. BAECHLER: It's done. It's finalized.
That was finished up in, I believe, February. I gave
that document back with my application and a
supplemental letter regarding that.
BOARD MEMBER GRONAUER: Well, you gave the
document on the investigator side,, but hat's a good
answer. Thank you.
MR. BAECHLER: And, too, I would just like to
add that the bankruptcy was pretty much exclusively
consumer debt. I've never had any liens, any judgments,
no tax liens. I've never been delinquent on student
loans. And last year, when I was at this point that I
had to do this, I voluntarily called my auto financer
and voluntarily surrendered the vehicle.
BOARD MEMBER GRONAUER: That's all.
MR. BAECHLER: I tried to do what I could to
make a bankruptcy as straightforward as possible, as
honorable, if there is such a thing.
BOARD MEMBER GRONAUER: Okay. Thank you.

Mr. Baechler.
Any additional follow-up questions?

investigator.

motion.
BOARD MEMBER GRONAUER: I'll make the motion.
Gronauer. I'll make a motion to approve Baechler
Investigative Services, Incorporated, for a new
corporate private investigator and process server
license. Jeremiah Baechler is applying for an
individual private investigator and process server
license. If approved, he is requesting that his
individual license be placed in abeyance so that he may
become the qualifying agent. The corporate officer to
be approved is Jeremiah Baechler. This is subject to

Gronauer, a second by Colbert. Any discussion on the
motion?
BOARD MEMBER FLYNN: Well, I just want to
comment on Mr. Baechler's honesty and forthcomingness.
And, also, I've been doing this three years, first time
I've seen letters of reference not only from your
landlord, but also your minister. So.
MR. BAECHLER: And the landlord is one of the
things I also wanted to present to the -- with my
application to the Board, back to that I've had no
delinquency. I'm sure my landlord would say rave good
things about me, hopefully.
BOARD MEMBER FLYNN: He did.
That's it.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: Any other comment from
the Board?
I'm going to support the motion. I think,
Mr. Baechler has indicated the financial issues was a
personal bankruptcy, not a corporate bankruptcy. And so
I'm going to support the motion. I think, he's done
everything he could to try to clear the issue up.
With that said, all in favor of the motion to

identify why this permit was denied.
MR. MAXWELL: Yes, sir. In June of 2010, out
of California, Ms. Fincher was arrested for possession
of a controlled substance for sale. It was at the
felony level. The disposition gives a four-month jail
term and five years probation. The arrest was disclosed
on the application and confirmed using the fingerprint
report. Ms. Fincher was not made provisional.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: Okay. Ms. Fincher,
would you please explain to us what the story is behind
all of this.
MS. FINCHER: At the time, I was a teen. And I
had just lost my father. He passed away to kidney
failure. My mother had just got sent to prison. So I
was pretty much on my own and trying to do what I can to
fend for myself.
It turned out to be a stupid mistake that,
apparently, I'm still paying for it.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: Okay. Do we have any
questions of the Board? Board Member Flynn?

fact that it didn't involve violence or a weapon.

MR. JACKSON: Good morning.
BOARD MEMBER FLYNN: Good morning to you.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: Investigator Saladino,
was this your case?
MR. SALADINO: Yes, sir. Investigator
Saladino. Mr. Jackson was denied for a 2007 felony
burglary conviction, which the applicant disclosed the
conviction, provided court docs. And he was honorably
discharged from probation in '09. It was actually
October 24th of '09.
And that's why we're here today.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: Okay. Mr. Jackson,
would you be kind enough to explain the circumstances of
all this.
MR. JACKSON: Yeah, I was -- I was -- I had
just turned 18. And I was with some peers of mine. And
we -- I was just in the wrong place at the wrong time.
And I just got -- I made a stupid mistake with the wrong
people.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: Okay. I'm going to
ask. Did you do any prison time or jail time?
MR. JACKSON: No. Yeah, I did, I had a -- I
had a -- maybe did like -- no, I didn't really do any,
any prison time, no.

MR. JACKSON: The G.I. county jail, two months.
BOARD MEMBER GRONAUER: Investigator, when --
you know, which -- you say you're here on one charge,
right? That's the one he didn't disclose?
MR. SALADINO: He disclosed the charge.
BOARD MEMBER GRONAUER: Okay.
MR. SALADINO: It was only the one. The
applicant has no other arrests.

Number 37, Cameron L. Lyles.
MR. INGRAM: He's present.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: All right.
MR. LYLES: Good morning, sir.
BOARD MEMBER FLYNN: Good morning.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: I believe, this is
Investigator Maxwell.
MR. MAXWELL: Yes, sir. In June of 2012,
Mr. Lyles was arrested in California for carrying a
concealed dirk or dagger. This was a misdemeanor
offense. And he received three years probation. The
applicant did disclose the arrest and listed the
disposition as a dismissal. The applicant was made
provisional. The fingerprint report confirmed the
arrest, which showed the disposition as a conviction.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: Mr. Lyles, could you
explain the circumstances of the arrest and the
confusion as far as determining, you indicating that it
had been dismissed.
MR. LYLES: Well, at the time, I had got
arrested for riding a minibike without a helmet, and I
had a knife I used to tune to idle on the minibike.
And I had put this, listed that I completed the
three years probation. So at the time, I asked the

person at the PILB, and she said put, if you finished
the case, then put dismiss. So, in my eyes, I believed
it was dismissed, since I finished the three years
probation. I didn't try to hide it. I just didn't word
it correctly. And for that, I apologize.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: Okay. Do we have any
questions from the Board? Board Member Nixon?
BOARD MEMBER NIXON: Have you been working?
MR. LYLES: Yes. I do light warehouse work
with Staffmark at the moment. I've been doing that for
about six months.
BOARD MEMBER NIXON: M-hm (affirmative).
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: Board Member Flynn?
BOARD MEMBER FLYNN: Yes.
Mr. Lyles, how long have you been living in
Las Vegas?
MR. LYLES: I've been out here for about a year
now.
BOARD MEMBER FLYNN: Okay. And you're in
California the whole other time?
MR. LYLES: Yes, sir.
BOARD MEMBER FLYNN: Okay. Thank you.

up?

I honestly can't remember, sir. But at the time, it had
to be around, I would say, about twenty -- 2015, I
believe.
BOARD MEMBER GRONAUER: Yeah, because I mean
arrest date, you know, and when you go to court, you
know, there's always a distance there, time and
distance. That's what I was trying to figure out.
Mr. Maxwell, is there a way to confirm that the
probation was taken care of?
MR. MAXWELL: I'd have to check when I get back
to the office, sir.
BOARD MEMBER GRONAUER: Okay. And you
understand why I want this, you get arrested one time,
and you may not go to court for two years, for certain
circumstances and all that. So. Okay. No problem.
But you -- I don't know if you said that. You're off
probation?
MR. LYLES: Yes, sir, I completed probation
years ago.

weapon. It was a weapons violation, correct?
MR. MAXWELL: Yes, sir, that's correct.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: Okay. Even though it
was a misdemeanor. Okay. That clarifies it for me.
Any other questions by the Board?
Seeing none, I would accept a motion.
BOARD MEMBER FLYNN: Ray Flynn. I'll make a
motion to grant the appeal.
I'm basing this on the fact that the California
authorities decided to charge him with a misdemeanor.
This is not a firearm. We did not have any evidence
that he's been in trouble since. And which is usually a
problem here, people don't disclose. He did disclose.
And I understand, especially coming out of the
California system, sometimes people have confusion
whether their probation just went away or it was
dismissed. It's not the first time we've heard that
from California residents.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: Okay. We have a motion
by Board Member Flynn. Do we have a second?
BOARD MEMBER NIXON: Second.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: We have a second by
Board Member Nixon. Any discussion on the motion?
Seeing none, all in favor of the motion,
signify by saying "aye."

BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: Okay.
MR. MAXWELL: All of the arrests were out of
New Jersey. November of 1997, possession of marijuana,
possession of burglary tools. The level was not known.
Disposition was 60 days suspended confinement and one
year probation.
July of '91, receiving stolen property at
felony level. The disposition was 364 days jail, two
years probation.
June 1994, receiving stolen property at felony
level. The disposition was 364 days in the Essex County
pen.
September of 1996, two counts, one a felony
burglary, one a felony theft. The dispo was 364 days
jail, three years probation.
April of '97, criminal trespass at felony
level. The disposition was aggregated sentence from
October 1999, state prison 18 months, minus 113 days for
time served. On 8-8 of '97, the probation was revoked,
and the applicant was sent to New Jersey State Prison
for four years, less 145 days for time served.
None of the arrests were disclosed, and were
found on the fingerprint report. The applicant did
disclose a 2008 arrest in South Carolina for misdemeanor
disorderly misconduct, which was dismissed. The

applicant was not made provisional.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: Thank you,
Investigator.
Mr. Moses, would you please kind of give us a
rundown of all of this. It looks to me like you had
quite a run there in the mid '90s. Can you explain what
was going on then and the reason why you did not
disclose?
MR. MOSES: I didn't -- well, I was in my 20s.
And I had a hard time in New Jersey. I was like,
basically, homeless, and I was just doing what I could
to eat back in that time. But I did let them know that
I had a felony warrant, not a warrant, but I had a
jacket.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: Okay. I'm sorry. Did
you indicate why you did not disclose?
MR. MOSES: I thought I did. I should have,
because before I got the job, they told me I might as
well just go ahead and be honest and let them know if I
was arrested or not. So that's what I did.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: Okay. All right. Any
questions from the Board? Board Member Gronauer?
BOARD MEMBER GRONAUER: Yes, sir.
When did you get out of prison?
MR. MOSES: Nineteen -- well, I was extradited.

It was real bad. I think, once I moved -- well, the
last time I went to prison there, you know, and once I
moved, I left my parole, I went to South Carolina. I
was doing better ever since. I haven't seen, I haven't
touched it. The move saved my life even though I ran
from parole.

six of the application, for more arrest history, have
you ever been convicted of a felony charge, he did
indicate yes on that. Also, he did disclose, in '07,
out of South Carolina, driving under a suspended
driver's license. And '92, simple assault out of
New Jersey.
So, yes, the applicant did disclose a few of
the arrests and did note that he was on probation and
stuff in the early '90s.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: Okay. Thank you for
clarifying that. Appreciate that.
All right. Are there any other questions from
the Board?
Seeing none, I would entertain a motion.
BOARD MEMBER COLBERT: Mr. Chair, I move that
we grant the appeal for Terry L. Moses, based upon time
and distance and the fact that he's lived in Nevada
since 1981, there's not been any issues.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: Okay. We have a motion

BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: Again, I believe, this
is Investigator Paul Maxwell.
MR. MAXWELL: Yes, sir. Mr. Stanley returned.
He was initially at the September Board, where the Board
members asked him to get court documents or police
reports and then return in December.
The initial denial was for attempting to carry
a concealed weapon, and the severity was unknown, and he
got two years probation. This was in 1993 out of Ohio.
The arrest was not disclosed. It was found through the
fingerprint report. The applicant was made provisional
as the charge was not shown on the initial background
check.
The applicant, as stated, appeared at the
September Board and did not return with documents in
December. The applicant did attempt to get court
documents and has kept in contact with me throughout
this three-month period. This office also managed to
the get court records. And it was stated that he has
applied for expungement of the offense and, but he will
not hear anything until December 19th of this year. But
he has made attempts to get paperwork to satisfy the

Board's request.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: Thank you,
Investigator.
Mr. Stanley, how do you attempt --
MR. STANLEY: Yes, sir.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: -- to carry a concealed
weapon? Can you explain that, what the circumstances
were on that? And, also, why you did not disclose.
MR. STANLEY: Basically, when it happened was
that I had an argument with my wife, my ex-wife. And
the gun was in my car. And she had called because she
was upset. And when I pulled back into the driveway,
the Maple Heights police was there, and they came and
they asked me did I threaten her or anything like that.
I said no.
The other officer went to my car, went into my
car. The gun was purchased legally. I had the receipt
and everything for it. He went in, and he said that
because I didn't have the receipt in the car, that it
was illegal.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: Okay. So if I'm clear,
he said, because you didn't have the receipt in the car,
then it was illegal; is that what you said?
MR. STANLEY: Yes.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: Okay.

MR. STANLEY: Yes.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: And why did you not
disclose?
MR. STANLEY: Because I had filed my
expungement a long time ago. It was like in two
thousand and -- I want to say 2003 when I got off
probation. And I had obtained papers and everything.
Basically, when I went to get the papers for the Board,
I spoke to the bailiff that was handling the
expungement, and he told me that I would be receiving
all this information. So what happened was that they
had them a water damage situation. Because he called
me, and he told me that I would be receiving this before
I even came to the Board meeting that I would have.
And I explained that to Mr. Maxwell to let him
know that that's what I was told, and the information
should be coming. So I disclosed that to Mr. Maxwell to
let him know that that's what, that's the only reason
why I didn't have the papers today in my hand.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: Are there any Board
questions? Board Member Flynn?
BOARD MEMBER FLYNN: I just want to be clear.
The paperwork that we wanted from the courts for him to
get, what was that going to state?
MR. MAXWELL: It was just clarifying the arrest

and the severity, and things like that, were requested

BOARD MEMBER FLYNN: Right.
MR. MAXWELL: And, also, any -- if it was
expunged or anything like that.
BOARD MEMBER FLYNN: But, for our knowledge, he
has not been in trouble since 1993?
MR. MAXWELL: No, sir.
BOARD MEMBER FLYNN: Okay. All right. Thank
you.
MR. SALADINO: Mr. Chair, Investigation
Saladino.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: Yes.
MR. SALADINO: According to the court documents
from Ohio, it was a '93 arrest. There was two years of
probation, which he did serve. And he was also
scheduled for regular drug testing, attended a county
concealed weapons program, and had to pay some court
fees.
In 2008, the applicant did apply to seal the
record. And for some reason, the courts, there's a gap
between '08 and 2018. But the water damage to Ohio was
verified. And we were able to find this on their online
system, and it shows that the expungement or the sealing
process will take place no later than December 18th, or

December 19th of this year.

complete all the requirements of probation.

Investigator.
Board Member Nixon, do you have any questions?
BOARD MEMBER NIXON: No, sir. Thank you.

you.

I'd entertain a motion.

motion that we grant his appeal. We have received
answers to our questions. We've got time and distance
of in excess of 25 years. Mr. Stanley has not been in
any trouble since then. And I appreciate his patience
and coming back.

MR. MAXWELL: Yes, sir. November of 1996, out
of Louisiana, Mr. Wells was picked up for a DWI at
misdemeanor level. The disposition states one year
unsupervised probation. This was not disclosed.
In July of 2013, again in Louisiana, operating

a vehicle while intoxicated at first degree, which is at

This arrest was disclosed on the application as a
misdemeanor, but the fingerprint report showed this as a
felony.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: Okay. Mr. Wells, would
you be kind enough to --
MR. WELLS: I have the paperwork that's showing
that I don't have a felony. I just got it the other
day.
MR. INGRAM: Mr. Wells, they're addressing you
right now.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: I'm sorry. Now,
Mr. Wells, good afternoon. Mr. Wells, would you explain
to us both of those arrests and the reason why you did
not disclose the first DUI.
MR. WELLS: Oh, it was so many years ago, I
actually didn't even remember. I was like 19.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: Okay. So the paperwork
you gave Investigator Saladino, what was that paperwork?
MR. SALADINO: The applicant stated this was
showing that the felonies were not, were not felonies.
I'm just verifying the dates on it and looking over the
paperwork right quick.

card. And you have a year. In a year, you can reapply.

felonies or weapons charges, I went ahead and denied him
for failure to disclose the arrests. Once I ran it
through SCOPE, I was able to go online and pull up the
court documents that showed the conviction and the

disposition of the five arrests.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: Thank you,
Investigator.
Mr. Esteban, is there a reason why you did not
disclose any of these?
MR. ESTEBAN: Honestly, I didn't, I wasn't so
concerned with how to disclose things. So I didn't
write on it, when I signed up for it, I didn't write on
the paperwork any of my, what I had, because I wasn't so
sure of what I had on my record.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: Do we have any
questions from the Board? Board Member Flynn?
BOARD MEMBER FLYNN: Mr. Esteban, you're saying
you don't remember an arrest from a year ago?
MR. ESTEBAN: With all -- what do you mean by
disclose?
BOARD MEMBER FLYNN: Well, disclose means you
have to tell us if you've ever been arrested or
convicted or jailed or imprisoned.
MR. ESTEBAN: Yeah. Right. No, I forgot to,
honestly.
BOARD MEMBER FLYNN: So you forgot an arrest
from a year ago for the possession of drugs --
MR. ESTEBAN: Yeah.
BOARD MEMBER FLYNN: -- in interstate commerce?

part-time jobs, as a parking lot attendant down by the
Strip. That's where I heard from the security, so I
thought it would be -- that's why I applied for it. And
I work at a Trop Stop at a car wash.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: Okay. Investigator
Gronauer?
BOARD MEMBER GRONAUER: How about Board Member?
I could be an investigator, whatever you want.
BOARD MEMBER FLYNN: He'd be a heck of an
investigator.
BOARD MEMBER GRONAUER: You can you me Mrs.
All right. Mr. Esteban, a year ago, that
arrest, what was the drugs involved?
MR. ESTEBAN: It was cocaine.
BOARD MEMBER GRONAUER: And it was a
misdemeanor?
MR. ESTEBAN: Yeah, because I was at -- it was
at the wrong -- I was at the wrong place at the wrong
time. And it was just not me involved in the situation.
There was other, other peers of mine in there.
BOARD MEMBER GRONAUER: Okay. So when you were

Colbert?

additional questions from the Board?

motion for denial for Mr. Alfredo Y. Esteban on his
appeal.

Gronauer and a second by Nixon to uphold, uphold the
appeal. Excuse me. Uphold the denial.
Any discussion on the motion?

(Board members said "aye.")

The denial was upheld by a unanimous vote.
Mr. Esteban, you can reapply in a year.

Mr. Chair, we'll be using a translator. Gisela Corral
will be translating for us.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: Okay. That sounds
fine.
This looks like Investigator Donald again.
MS. DONALD: Yes. August of 2007,
Mr. Garcia-Mendoza was convicted of a felony for one
count of DUI with priors and one count of forced assault
with a deadly weapon not a firearm. He received three
years in prison for the DUI and prior, and one year in
prison for the force.
2005, in December, he had one count of DUI.
The disposition was unknown.
July of 2004, one count of force, assault with
a deadly weapon. The disposition was unknown. Which
could possibly be related to the 2007 arrest as well.
2011, June, felony conviction for one count of
DUI with alcohol. He was sentenced to 16 months in
prison.

In May of 2001, one count of DUI. Disposition
is unknown.
And May of 1996, convicted of receiving known
stolen property. It was unclear if it was a felony or a
misdemeanor, but he was sentenced to 180 days in jail
and received three years probation.
All the arrests were out of California, and he
did not close these.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: Thank you,
Investigator.
Is it possible Mr. Garcia-Mendoza can explain
to us why none of these were disclosed, and explain the
circumstances?
(Ms. Corral interpreted for the appellant.)
MS. CORRAL: Okay. The reason why he did not
disclose any of the arrests is because he does not read
or write English. So, therefore, he brought someone
with him to fill out the application at the PILB office,
and that person did not, never asked him to list any
arrests, so he didn't.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: Okay. Are there any
question from the Board? I'll start with Board Member
Nixon.
BOARD MEMBER NIXON: No, sir.

one?

of force, assault with a deadly weapon, but not a
firearm.

apologies.
MS. CORRAL: Do you still want him to explain?

(Ms. Corral interpreted for the appellant.)
MS. CORRAL: So what year was that?
MS. DONALD: In 2007.
(Ms. Corral interpreted for the appellant.)
MS. CORRAL: Okay. So in regards to that
arrest, he was working at a "fav-ay," like a factory, he
said. And a lot of different employees used to fool
around. And one time, he was actually playing around
with another employee, and he pushed him, and the
employee actually got hurt, because he hit himself with
like a corner of one of the big machineries that they

were working on, and so he cut himself. So he got
arrested, and they said that he was using a deadly
weapon, not item firearm, but he was actually not in
possession of any knife or anything like that, any form
of deadly weapon.
BOARD MEMBER FLYNN: Okay. And how long has he
lived in Las Vegas?
(Ms. Corral interpreted for the appellant.)
MS. CORRAL: Since 2010.
BOARD MEMBER FLYNN: And what's he been doing
here the last eight years?

with that. But is that the truth?

to clarify. So, absolutely, it was, it's always been

firearm.
BOARD MEMBER GRONAUER: Okay. And, now, has he
attended any DUI classes or any kind of alcohol classes
or rehabs?
(Ms. Corral interpreted for the appellant.)
MS. CORRAL: Yes, he did attend DUI classes,
and he's been to AA --
MR. GARCIA-MENDOZA: AA.
MS. CORRAL: -- AA class. Everything was back
in California. He does have a valid driver's license
here in Nevada.

alcohol?

likes to drive his car.

of any other arrests since then?

MS. CORRAL: Because he's always worked at a
casino. Right now, he just had surgery. So every
single employment at the casino, it's kind of like a
hard kind of job for his condition right now. So he's
trying to look for something, you know, easier.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: Okay. Any other Board
questions?
Seeing none, I would accept a motion.
BOARD MEMBER FLYNN: Mr. Chair, Ray Flynn.
I'll make a motion to grant the appeal. But this is the
first one for me. Because, normally, in my record of
voting is people that don't disclose, I automatically
say no. But the fact with the language barrier, and he
brought somebody in to fill out the application for him,
and the fact that he has not been in trouble since
living in Nevada, he's got a long-term employment, and
nothing, and no arrests in Nevada, I'm going to
recommend granting his appeal.

MS. DONALD: In October of 1982, Mr. Imbriani
was convicted of a felony for aggregated assault on a
police officer. So, he was convicted. The court
provision was that he abide by the court restrictions.
He did. And, but he did not disclose the arrest. That
was his only arrest.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: Okay. So,
Mr. Imbriani, could you explain the circumstances of the
arrest and, also, why you did not disclose.
MR. IMBRIANI: Yes. Actually, I truly thought
it was dismissed. But at the time of the arrest, my
buddy got arrested for a DUI. And one of the officers
slammed his head against the top of the car. I got
upset, grabbed the officer, told him he didn't need to
slam his head. And that was it.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: Do we have any
questions from the Board? Board Member Flynn?
BOARD MEMBER FLYNN: How long have you lived in
Nevada?
MR. IMBRIANI: We have a place here and, also,
in Phoenix. So we've had a place here for four years,

then went through a divorce and had to close it down.
Changed the name to B.O.L.O. Auto Recovery. And we
opened up here four years ago and, also, in Phoenix.
BOARD MEMBER FLYNN: Okay. And you want the
work card for what?
MR. IMBRIANI: Well, I manage the employees.
And I just felt I should probably get one as well,
because all my employees have to have it, and our camera
drivers have to have it. Our office staff, I make them
get it. So I require everybody to get the card, so I
figured I should get one as well.

help from Kevin.

MR. INGRAM: Well, he's not a license holder.

to work.

MR. IMBRIANI: Since we started four years ago.
MR. INGRAM: And you never received a work card
at that time?
MR. IMBRIANI: No, because I only come up here
from time to time. Just I come up and help Stephanie,
who's my girlfriend.
MR. INGRAM: Stephanie French?
MR. IMBRIANI: Right. She -- her mom was in a
car accident, in a coma, so, for over 30 days. So I had
to start coming up here a little bit and help out.
MR. INGRAM: And you understand that you have
to have a work card before you can actually work here in
Nevada?
MR. IMBRIANI: Correct.
MR. INGRAM: And you just testified under oath
that you're working here without a work card.
MR. IMBRIANI: Well, I -- I don't go out on the
road. So I have nothing to do with it. Because the
only thing I do is payroll.

regardless of what duties or responsibilities you have.
MR. IMBRIANI: Okay. Getting it.
BOARD MEMBER FLYNN: Yeah, this would be an
easy one if you would have disclosed. You were 19, and
it was a long time ago. But I'm more concerned about --
and I'm sure staff will follow up. I'm more concerned
about the position you hold right now.
MR. IMBRIANI: Okay.
BOARD MEMBER FLYNN: And the fact that you're
not licensed. I think, that's actually something for
you to worry about now. This is minor.
MR. IMBRIANI: Okay.
BOARD MEMBER FLYNN: I'm done.
MR. INGRAM: And, for the record, in an
instance where an employee is working for a license
holder without a work card, the citation would be issued
to the qualifying agent of B.O.L.O. Recovery, which
would be Stephanie French. She will be receiving a
citation for employing someone without a work card in
Nevada. They're responsible for allowing somebody to
work without a work card.

asked how the application process would go for the work
card. I did know about her mother being in a car
accident and stuff.
So Stephanie did reach out to us, and we set
the process up with the appeal, knowing the criminal
history was there.

MR. IMBRIANI: No. I just started coming two
months ago. Because I like Phoenix. I mean I like
Vegas for the night life, you know, and going to shows.
But I have a house in Phoenix. My friends are in
Phoenix. I teach in Phoenix. So.
BOARD MEMBER GRONAUER: Thank you.
MR. IMBRIANI: You're welcome.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: Any other questions?
I didn't hear why you did not disclose. I
think, I missed it.
MR. IMBRIANI: Well, I think, they said it was
in '82. And I truly just -- I didn't, I didn't think of
anything back on '82. '82, I'd have been -- 1955, so.
You know, that's a lot of -- yeah, I'm trying.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: Okay. Thank you.
All right. Are there any other questions from
the Board?
I'll accept a motion.
BOARD MEMBER FLYNN: Ray Flynn. I'll make the
motion, based on my earlier comments, that we deny the
appeal based on disclosure. I've got no issues if he
reapplies in the time frame and discloses it.
BOARD MEMBER GRONAUER: I second.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: We have a motion by
Board Member Flynn to uphold the denial and a second by

Board Member Gronauer. Discussion on the motion?
I have a couple comments from my position.
We're talking 36 years ago. I mean this Board has not
held that if someone failed to disclose that long ago,
unless there's aggravating circumstance and more recency
of issues.
As far as the issue goes, B.O.L.O., and him
working without a permit or a work card, he applied for
a work card, and it was denied. I just think the
circumstances are such that the appeal should be upheld.
So I will be voting no on this motion.
Any other comment from the Board, discussion?
BOARD MEMBER GRONAUER: Well, you know,
Mr. Chairman, I would really understand what you're
saying there, and I understand that about the time and
distance on that. But it seems like there's a
preponderance of evidence here about other things,
including working without a work card. So that just
creates me a problem. I'm sorry. That's the way I feel
about it.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: And, you know, this is
not an argument. I understand your position.
BOARD MEMBER GRONAUER: Okay. I didn't --
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: I believe that

is trying to put forth good effort to try to meet
statutory and regulatory requirements. So, again, you
know, we can disagree on the thing.
So that. And unless there's additional
discussion, all in favor of the motion, signify by
saying "aye."
(Board members said "aye.")
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: And those opposed?
Nay.
So the motion passes four to one.
Mr. Imbriani, you may come back in a year and apply.
MR. IMBRIANI: Okay.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: But understand that if
you're working for B.O.L.O., B.O.L.O. is now subject to
information that they have employees working without
proper registration.
MR. IMBRIANI: Right. Yeah, I stay in Phoenix,
so. All right. Thanks.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: All right. We have
number 47, Markus Moore. He's up here.

appreciative that I've been given this opportunity to
appeal and speak to the Board.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: So, I believe,
Investigator Donald, you're still up.
MS. DONALD: Yep. Mr. Moore was convicted in
Utah in 2015 for possession of a weapon. He was
originally charged with a felony, but it was reduced to
a misdemeanor. He had to pay a fine, did some jail time
and probation. The applicant did disclose the arrest
and has had no other incidences.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: All right. Mr. Moore,
would you explain the circumstances.
MR. MOORE: Yes. Oddly enough, when I was
living in Utah, I was living with my ex-girlfriend at
the time. And I had just -- we were renting out a room
from her mom's house. And, well, after I paid the rent,
her and her mom got in a very big argument. She left.
But I was planning on like moving down here to Nevada at
the end of that month. And I already paid her rent, and
she talked to me, and she asked when's the soonest I can
move out. I told her I could be out by the end of the
week. That didn't work for her. So.
And she knew that my father had just bought me
a Desert Eagle .44. She called the cops and said that
she was freaking out because there's a person with a gun

in her house. And, well, it escalated from there. I
let the cops in. I showed them exactly where they could
find the weapon. It was Condition 4, which means no
magazine in the magazine well, no round in the chamber,
and the weapon's on safe. I also had a trigger lock on
it. And it was locked inside of another drawer.
So I didn't see any real problem with that.
The issue that they had, when they found it, is that
even though I was renting the room and sharing it with
another person, they did find paraphernalia in the same
room. And even though the weapon was locked away in a
locked drawer, they still considered it within the
vexus.
So since that -- they took me into jail. And
we came to a plea agreement. Since it was my first
offense, it was nonaggressive, I completely complied
with every order that the officers gave me, they were
able to drop it down to a misdemeanor, the attempted
possession by a restricted person.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: Okay. Board questions?
Board Member Colbert?
BOARD MEMBER COLBERT: No.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: Board Member Gronauer?
BOARD MEMBER GRONAUER: Yes, sir. Mr. Moore.

heard by a restricted person. What does that mean?
MR. MOORE: I think, it has something to do
with specifics within Utah law. I can't really go into
that. Your guess is as good as mine, sir. It was just
the lesser charge.
BOARD MEMBER GRONAUER: Can I ask the
investigator, do we have anything deeper on that?
MS. DONALD: That was his only arrest.
BOARD MEMBER GRONAUER: It doesn't say
restricted person or anything? Because what I consider
is a restricted person is a little different, I guess.
MS. DONALD: Exactly. But, no prior record,
other than that one arrest and conviction.
BOARD MEMBER GRONAUER: Where have you lived
prior to Utah?
MR. MOORE: I'm sorry, sir. What was that?
BOARD MEMBER GRONAUER: Where were you residing
prior to Utah?
MR. MOORE: I was in Florida. And then, before
that, I was in Idaho. And before that, I was in
California. And before that, I was in Okinawa, Japan.
And before that, Afghanistan. And before that,
California again. And then Butte, Montana. And then
Idaho.

For the applicant, in Utah, a restricted person
most commonly means, not like Nevada, means it's drug
user. So what kind of paraphernalia was in the room?
MR. MOORE: Marijuana. It was just a pipe. It
want any drugs. It was just used paraphernalia.
BOARD MEMBER FLYNN: Yeah, I know what
paraphernalia is. But if they found dope there, they
would have arrested you for dope. So that's what the
restriction, that's why you got arrested for the
restriction, my guess.

instead of a gun, but.

this is yours?

convicted in California in 2010 for a misdemeanor
possession of a switchblade. He received three years
probation and a 30-day suspended jail sentence. He
disclosed this arrest and has had no other incidences.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: Okay. Would you,
Mr. Nava, would you explain to us the circumstances of
the arrest.
MR. NAVA: Yeah. So what happened was, in
2010, I believe it was June of that year, I was on my
way home from visiting a friend's father that was
recently put in the hospital. I was pulled over by a
Temple City sheriff's unit. Upon being pulled over, I
realized that I didn't have my wallet. And my -- I list
that my truck was registered to at the time. My uncle,
also, who didn't live with me, had his forwarding
address sent there. I guess, he had a warrant for his
arrest.
And me not having my ID on me, they searched my

truck and found my work knife. Which it wasn't an
actual stiletto switchblade. It was more of a -- was
kind of like a little handle with an open end to
unfolding it. They, I guess, took me in because of that
and not having my driver's license on me. And I tried
telling them. I gave them my birthday and my social,
driver's license number and everything. They took me
in. I spent two days in their lockup and was bailed out
by my family.
The 30 days suspended jail time was actually --
I did 30 days in service. But I mean I had never heard
that term, specific, suspended jail time. But the three
years that I did, I didn't have a parole officer or
anything or a probation officer. I, three years, went
through probation, worked off on and on, different jobs.
And, I believe, I did file to have it expunged
from my record. I'm not sure if it shows that. But
that was pretty much par for the course for what
happened.

Was that, was it a spring-operated knife, or
was it just all finger-flicked open?

spring-operated. It was just -- it had a -- it was a
locking knife that had a -- like a little lever on it to
assist pulling the blade out, and then you would fold
that and you would click it till it locked.
BOARD MEMBER COLBERT: All right. And how big
was this knife?
MR. NAVA: Like about the size of my palm.
Half of it was serrated. So that's why I had it, it was
used as a tool. But they just classified it as a
switchblade when they found it.

days in jail and received three years probation. He
disclosed the arrest.

would you explain to us the circumstances of the arrest,
please.

before I reached home, I picked up a friend. And when
he got in the car -- I was dropping him off. And he hid
the gun in the car. I'm not knowing that it was in

there. When I got to the stoplight, I didn't yield all
the way, I kept going. There was a cop on my left-hand
side, I seen him. He pulled me over.
When they searched the car, the gun looked to
be like a little cap gun. So it didn't have no grip to
it or nothing. So when the cop searched it, they asked
me did I know it was in the car, and I told them no.
They took me in. When I went before the judge,
he said it was just a misdemeanor because they didn't
find it on me. I served, I was going to say 45 days.
They released me Saturday morning. And I served three
years summary probation.
I got out. After I got out, I moved out here
to Nevada, started working under a Safe Security, turned
out to be it wasn't even a real company, because he
wasn't licensed. The investigator came on the site when
I was in uniform and asked me for my paperwork. I
didn't have it, because the job that I was going to was
supposed to take care of everything and license me as a
security guard, and a work card. But it turned out that
the company was not legit. And to this day, they're
still looking for him.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: Okay. Board questions?
MR. SALADINO: Mr. Chair, Investigator
Saladino.

BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: Yes.
MR. SALADINO: When we did arrive on site,
Mr. Thomas was very cooperative. He was new to Nevada.
He didn't understand all the rules and stuff that he
needed to abide by. He was very cooperative with
helping us in regards to our investigation with the
unlicensed activity. And I told him, you know, by all
means, you should apply for a work card. There's an
appeal process.
And you know, that's why we're here today for
the appeal.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: Thank you,
Investigator.
Board questions? Board Member Flynn?
BOARD MEMBER FLYNN: Yes.
Mr. Thomas, a couple things. One, here it says
three years summary probation. So, normally,
California, summary probation means there's also other
conditions. Did you have community service?
MR. THOMAS: No, I just had to --
BOARD MEMBER FLYNN: Classes?
MR. THOMAS: No.
BOARD MEMBER FLYNN: What?
MR. THOMAS: I just had to stay out of the way
of the cops.

BOARD MEMBER FLYNN: All right. You're going
to have to explain that one to me. My math isn't that
bad. You were arrested on 12-30 of 2015.
MR. THOMAS: M-hm (affirmative).
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: I'm sure you had to go
to court, unless what it's like when it's down south in
Louisiana, where you went to court the same day. They
gave you three years summary probation.
MR. THOMAS: Yeah. That was 2018. I'm off.
BOARD MEMBER FLYNN: You will be --
MR. THOMAS: Yeah.
BOARD MEMBER FLYNN: -- in a couple weeks.
Okay. Thank you.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: Board Member, and I'll
try it again, Gronauer?
BOARD MEMBER FLYNN: That's very good.
BOARD MEMBER GRONAUER: Very good.
That's what was confusing to me, also, is the
dates. Okay. 12-30, you went to court somewhere, a
month, two months later, something like that. And then
they found you -- they convicted you. At that time, the
judge said it's not a felony, it's going to be a

it on me. I didn't even --

understand your story. Right? And I understand what
happened. But it concerns me when the probation dates
are not up yet.
MR. THOMAS: Right.
BOARD MEMBER GRONAUER: Okay. And do we have
anything that tell us about the probation date,
Mr. Saladino?
Mr. Chair, we're just looking up the probation
stuff now.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: Gotcha.
MR. SALADINO: Yeah, Mr. Chair, Investigator
Saladino. Unfortunately, the State of California, they
do not put an end date to the probation on here. It
does show that it did -- 12-30 of '15 was the date of
the arrest. But we don't have an end date for the
probation.
MR. THOMAS: Yeah, because I didn't have to
check in with nobody, so. It was just a summary

Any other questions from the Board?

I've got a question for staff or counsel.
MS. BORDELOVE: M-hm (affirmative).
BOARD MEMBER FLYNN: If we deny him, he can't
come back before us for a year, correct?
MS. BORDELOVE: That's correct.
BOARD MEMBER FLYNN: But if he agrees to
postpone to the next meeting, and then we know for a
fact that he's definitely off probation, if he agreed to
that, we could do that, correct?
MS. BORDELOVE: Correct.
BOARD MEMBER FLYNN: All right. Thank you.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: So, Mr. Thomas, what
Board Member Flynn was just saying is this. If this
Board takes action, and that action is that they affirm
the denial, in other words, they say your work card is
denied, then it's a year before you can apply for a work
card again.
But if you think that, you decide that you are
willing to wait till our March Board meeting for this
appeal to be heard again, and there's confirmation that
the probation has been fulfilled, we can get some
verification from the court, that may drive a different

years. We've never granted an appeal of anybody on
probation. We've never granted anything to anybody on
probation. And you're really close to getting off. So
that's why we're trying to find something, that you go
to the next meeting, you'll be off probation. If you
haven't been in trouble, it'll work out for you for the
better. I can't speak for my colleagues. But I'm
not -- I can't in good conscience give somebody without
this information.
MR. SALADINO: Mr. Chair, we had the wrong
county. L.A. County in California doesn't allow for
searches. But Pomona, we were able to pull up 11-24 of
'17 was the end date for the probation.
BOARD MEMBER FLYNN: Oh, that's even better.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: 11-24 of '17. Okay.
So that, Mr. Thomas, tells us that you're off probation.

make the motion that we grant the application's appeal,

been in any other trouble, he's got a job, and his
honesty in the application process and before the Board.

BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: Investigator Donald.
MS. DONALD: Ms. Wilson was convicted for a
felony burglary out of California in 2008. She was
sentenced to jail time, 365 days, minus 54 days for
credit for time served. She received 36 months formal
probation, fines and restitution. The applicant did
disclose the arrest.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: Okay. Ms. Wilson,
would you explain the circumstances of the arrest.
MS. WILSON: Yes. I was at home, and my
friends came over and asked me could I do something for
them. So we all went outside, and they asked me could I
watch across the street, like sit in the house, but
watch them across the street as they enter a home, and
lie still.
And they got caught two weeks later. I got
caught three months later, because they told them that I
was part of, you know, watching the house. And if so,
if I was to fight it, I was going to get six, six years.
And they said if I just plead guilty, I'd just get a
year. So I just took the deal, because I was 18, and I
didn't know really how to be smart.

the fines and restitution?

Her probation is finished. She had it for 36 months.
So.

question. What was stolen?

drinks. Like they didn't steal any electrics. They
just stole dumb stuff. Because we were 17 and 18. And
it was little stuff. It wasn't TVs or something like
that.

18-year-old?

of them.

charged with the crime. The other two was minors, so it
was dismissed for them.

could you explain to us the arrests and particularly why
you did not disclose.

explain to us what this series of arrests are.

you where? '94, I think, I had Santa Barbara and L.A.
County. No, I think, '94 is Santa Barbara. Is that
correct?

story.

exactly sure what you're looking at.

circumstances of that. All we show is California. So
it's kind of tough for us to -- you take us through the
roadmap.
MS. HESTER: Well, back then, I think, that was
Santa Barbara County. It was a -- it should have been a
burglary from a mall. We had a young lady, friends of
mine knew a young lady who'd shoplift or boost, and he
paid her cash for the clothes. And then the young lady
got caught. And she told them that she was stealing the
clothes for us. And they took us unsuccessfully back

I received -- I think, I did a couple of days
and received a couple of years probation. I eventually
got it expunged. So I'm thinking that's what you guys
are looking at from '94.

explains '94. What about '97 and then 2000?
MS. HESTER: '97, gosh, I'm trying to
remember. '97.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: It said something about
conspiracy to commit a crime, possession of cocaine.
MS. HESTER: Oh, that was L.A, L.A. County,
correct? I had a possession of sales charge from
Los Angeles. I was dealing with a gentleman. We were
downtown Los Angeles. I had on his jacket at the time.
And when the police came, I remembered that he had some
stuff in his jacket pocket. And I got caught with that
stuff. I tried to throw it, but the officer found it.

about -- we have the petty theft in 2001. We have

theft is what I was thinking of in Santa Barbara. I'm

from the Board? Board Member Flynn?
BOARD MEMBER FLYNN: Yeah, I've got a couple.
Let's talk about your most recent one, so you
don't have to try to remember back years ago. Driving
on a suspended license, DUI, last year.
MS. HESTER: Last year? My DUI should have
been 2010.
BOARD MEMBER FLYNN: Right. But it says you
were driving on a suspended license.
MS. HESTER: Oh, that, yes, that was unpaid
fines, actually, going back and forth to work still.
I've always lived one place and commuted to another
place. So I was driving without my license due to
unpaid tickets. But I do currently -- I've taken care
of all that stuff and had my license back for over a
year.
BOARD MEMBER FLYNN: How long have you been
living in Nevada?
MS. HESTER: A few months.
BOARD MEMBER FLYNN: Okay. Are you employed
currently?
MS. HESTER: Yes. I work for Amazon. And
prior to that, I was always employed. I was doing home

healthcare for elderly people for the last few years
before moving here.
BOARD MEMBER FLYNN: Okay. So you -- I want to
understand. You said that you did disclose all these?
MS. HESTER: To my knowledge, yes. I wrote a
few things on my paperwork. I told them about it. They
said that they had would come up. When they denied the
card, and I asked the gentleman about it, he said that
my -- I said this should have been expunged. But he
said they were still coming up as a felony and that I
could seal it.
BOARD MEMBER FLYNN: All right. Mr. Chair,
could I address the investigator?
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: Actually, I was going
to ask the investigator to come up to the microphone,
because he has an explanation on the disclosure.
BOARD MEMBER FLYNN: Yeah, and I also wanted to
ask him. There's -- on the paperwork here, it also says
that she made a false statement as a matter of fact,
besides the failure to disclose. So I'd like him to
cover both of those issues.
MR. MAHAN: Well, for clarity, she did disclose
four arrests. However, they did not coincide with
actual arrests. She listed, in 2010, a drunk driving
arrest; in 2003, a petty theft arrest. In 2013 to '16,

she wasn't sure. She wrote a traffic violation and
cited she was not arrested.
And then there was no action taken on a fraud
in 2005. The fraud was for welfare scams, and she was
ultimately convicted for that. She was arrested in 2000
on the other charges not listed. And in 2017, she did
not list that, either.
So it was a mishmash of dates that she tried to
put together that did not coincide with her actual
criminal history.
MS. HESTER: I didn't have it in front of me,
and I told the gentleman I wasn't definite on the dates,
so he told me to just do the best that I could.
BOARD MEMBER FLYNN: Okay. And then what about
the false statement of material fact?
MR. MAHAN: That was involved. She gave, she
had two accounts of that, with providing false
information to law enforcement officers at the time of
arrest.
BOARD MEMBER FLYNN: Oh, okay. That's not a
false statement type. It says here false statement of
material fact on the application. It's checked. Maybe
you didn't check it. But it's coming up on mine that it
was checked.
MR. MAHAN: Oh, I see.

have one DUI, and that was from 2010, and everything was
completed with that. They wouldn't have given -- I
haven't had to do any other.

MS. HESTER: That, definitely I was pulled
over, actually while I was on my way to work. That's
how I initiated getting my license fixed and all that
stuff, because the officer did take me in and cited me
and released me with court dates. And I just made dates
for all of my stuff, to take care of everything and to
receive my license back. So those are my -- that was
the traffic information, but I wasn't sure on the dates.
I didn't have it in front of me.
BOARD MEMBER NIXON: How much jail time did you
do altogether, with all these?
MS. HESTER: I haven't even, never done a year.
I haven't even ever done six months. It was always
spaced out a couple days here and there. I have proof
of two expungements that should exist; but, I guess,
they're not showing up.

before, it wasn't -- before that, I had tickets for
driving without my license, but it wasn't from like
drinking or nothing like that. It was just unpaid
tickets that I couldn't afford to pay at the time, that
had actually suspended my license in the first place.
BOARD MEMBER COLBERT: Okay. Thank you.

have a DUI from 2017.
BOARD MEMBER FLYNN: Okay. What I hear, that
you were arrested in 2017.
MS. HESTER: For driving without my license,
right.
BOARD MEMBER FLYNN: Driving on a suspended
license.
MS. HESTER: Yes.
BOARD MEMBER FLYNN: Let me finish. That is
why I'm supporting this motion. You've been here most
of the morning. We look at time and distance and what
people have done. It's barely been a little over a
year. And that's besides the fact of your failure to
disclose some of these. It doesn't mean you can't come
back in a year.
And another thing that you need to be aware of
is you are violation of the law right now. The State of
Nevada requires you to get a Nevada driver's license
within 45 days of residency.
MS. HESTER: Well, I wasn't a permanent
resident.
BOARD MEMBER FLYNN: Okay. We're not -- just
you're living here. You're getting a paycheck.
You're -- correct?

BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: Yes. All right. We
have a motion and a second. Is there any further
discussion?
Just from my perspective, I'm going to support
the motion to recency and the confusion on
nondisclosure. I think, disclosure is very important,
particularly not necessarily of just arrests, but also
convictions. And so I think that is impacting my
decision. So I will support the motion.
All in favor of the motion, signify by saying
"aye."

come back in a year and apply again.

what we have?
MR. MAHAN: Mr. Roe has a substantial criminal
history he failed to disclose. The charges he failed to
disclose include indecent exposures on multiple

accounts, harassing and intimidating phone calls of a
sexual nature, and attempted arson and criminal
mischief.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: And how far back do
these go?
MR. MAHAN: Quite a ways back. 1982, I
believe, was his first harassment by communication
charge.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: And then the most
recent?
MR. MAHAN: His most recent was two thousand --
looks like 1995.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: 1995.
MR. MAHAN: I think, there were some other ones
after that, but. 2006, fleeing to elude a police
officer, that was his most recent.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: Okay. Mr. Roe, would
you please explain what all of this is about.
MR. ROE: Well, I know, when I was living in
Pittsburgh, of course, I get -- I get nervous, you know,
when I see police officers around. And that's all. I
just don't know what to say, you know.

you disclose any of these arrests?

Why didn't you tell about the arrests?
MR. ROE: I thought, because it was -- when
they said on the application that have you ever been
arrested after a certain amount of time, I said no.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: Okay.
MS. SWANSON: Can I say something first?
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: Yes. Would you
identify yourself, please.
MS. SWANSON: Yes. My name is Susan Swanson.
I am his cousin. He's lived here in Nevada for eight
months. He's been working for me at Broadway West. He
has been a model citizen. He has a letter here from his
brother, who is a major in the Air Force. He's from a
military family. He's very disciplined. He didn't
remember it. Age 16, has had open-heart surgery. For
lack of blood going to his brain, he didn't understand
some of the things that were being brought up.

BOARD MEMBER FLYNN: For the investigator, you
made mention his last arrest was 2006?
MR. MAHAN: Yes, sir.
BOARD MEMBER FLYNN: I don't have that. I
don't have that on the paperwork here. What do you know
about it, what can you tell me?
MR. MAHAN: Well, that was my failure to put
that on the denial report. But it was 2006 out of LVSCA
"can-pita," fleeing to elude a police officer. And the
outcome was unknown at that time, but he was arrested.
MR. ROE: I don't know what LVSC means.
MR. MAHAN: Pittsburg, like it was out of
Pittsburg.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: It was out of
Pittsburg.
BOARD MEMBER FLYNN: Oh, it was out of
Pittsburg.
BOARD MEMBER GRONAUER: That's part of their

some serious charges in your life. And I know you know
that. I don't mean to put you on the spot. But if
you've been sitting here most of the morning, then you
know how this Board feels about failure to disclose.

paperwork that you'd had these arrests?
MR. ROE: Because I thought that they were --
because they were so far back. I thought it really
didn't matter and, you know.

further.

was October 4, 2016, which resulted in arrest warrants
being issued. He was also arrested for felony drug
possession, which was later reduced in severity.
He currently -- well, scratch that. He doesn't
have any active warrants at this time. But he did not
disclose any of these on his PILB application.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: Mr. Scott, could you
explain the arrests and why you did not disclose.
MR. SCOTT: The first arrest was a crime of
opportunity. Somebody asked if I could make some money
doing that.
The assault and battery charge, there was a
gentleman, tried to take my dog. We had altercation
about it. He ended up calling the police, and I didn't,
because he didn't get my dog. And the police said
because he called and I didn't, in the court proceeding,
they told me it was just easier to plead out. It was a
misdemeanor. It wasn't a felony.
And the reason I didn't write either one of
those on the paper was this is my second attempt at
coming to the group. I put it down on the first
application. And that's where they told me to reapply.
Once it was finalized, the finalization for the battery
was a week after the initial review board. And they
told me they couldn't issue it to me at that time

because the case was still open.
Now that it's closed, I reapplied. I didn't
think -- they asked me if I had been arrested on
anything new. I didn't put down anything, because the
previous application, it was already on it. And I did
submit that I did have a traffic ticket. But, no,
nothing new, nothing current as far as being arrested.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: So if I'm to understand
correctly, you're saying that the reason you didn't put
them down on this is because you had already disclosed
them previously?
MR. SCOTT: I put them down on the first
application. Yes.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: Okay. Board questions.
Board Member Colbert?
BOARD MEMBER COLBERT: Yes.
So you had listed the September 2018 warrant
out of Vegas there, on your other one?
MR. SCOTT: No, I didn't know about it. I was
informed about it and went and got it taken care of for
the review today. That warrant was for a traffic
citation from a 2007 that I was unaware of.
BOARD MEMBER FLYNN: So you weren't arrested
for the warrant?
MR. SCOTT: No, I wasn't arrested.

MR. SCOTT: Yes.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: Yeah, I seem to
remember. Okay.
Any other questions?
BOARD MEMBER COLBERT: Yes.
So do you currently have proof of insurance for
your vehicle?
MR. SCOTT: No, I'm without a vehicle right
now, and license. I have no job, so. Well, I'm working

with this gentlemen last and what we asked.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: It was at our last
meeting.
MR. SCOTT: At the previous reversal, last
year.
BOARD MEMBER FLYNN: So it was three months
ago?
MS. IRIZARRY: No.
MR. SCOTT: No. Last year. It was a year ago.
BOARD MEMBER FLYNN: It was a year ago.
MR. SCOTT: Yes.
BOARD MEMBER FLYNN: And what did we ask?
MS. IRIZARRY: He's here to reapply. I'm not
sure exactly what they asked for.
MR. SCOTT: You asked me to --

staff doesn't remember, what do you remember?

would be denied because the case was still open. The
court date for the case was a week after the review
board's date, and it was still open.
BOARD MEMBER FLYNN: I do remember that. Okay.
I'm good.
MR. SCOTT: Open.
BOARD MEMBER FLYNN: I remember. Thank you.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: Yes, me, too.

while to get there, but I'm clear.

Member Nixon, do you have any questions?

for.

was --

don't have to worry about car insurance. Do you have a
driver's license?
MR. SCOTT: Not a -- Maryland one, I had a
Maryland license, but I had to turn it in for a Nevada
ID.
BOARD MEMBER GRONAUER: You had to turn it in?
MR. SCOTT: Yes.
BOARD MEMBER GRONAUER: Okay. So you have no
license now?
MR. SCOTT: No, no driver's license, but I have
a Nevada ID.
BOARD MEMBER GRONAUER: Okay. And why do you
want this work card?
MR. SCOTT: I've been doing security for most
of my life. Aside from that, I do professional mixed
martial arts. It goes hand-in-hand with my profession,
or my hopeful profession of being in property
management. I'm in school for it now. And so I'm not
cut out for telemarketing, anything of that sort. I've
been forced to kind of pick up to make ends meet.
Security works for me.

BOARD MEMBER GRONAUER: Okay. Where do you --
how long have you been in Nevada?
MR. SCOTT: 2005, 2006. I left for a period,
for about two years. I have children, took them back
east to see my family. But now we're back out here as
far as 2010. So.
BOARD MEMBER GRONAUER: All right. I'm fine.
Thank you.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: Okay. Any other Board
questions?
All right. Then, I'd accept a motion.
BOARD MEMBER FLYNN: Ray Flynn. I'll move to
grant the appeal. I do remember this case. He
satisfied the issue on the other warrant. He went right
down when he found out. And it was a -- the current
warrant was for display of a bogus license plate. I
think, Board Member Gronauer verified he's not driving.
We don't have to worry about that issue anymore.
And I believe, I mean he did disclose these on
the first app. And I believed his explanation that he
felt that he didn't need to do it, since we already had
the paperwork.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: Okay. We have a motion

MR. SALADINO: Investigator Saladino.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: Okay. Investigator
Saladino.
MR. SALADINO: The applicant was denied for a
2003 felony possession of marijuana out of Texas, where
he received six years in prison. He did disclose, and
was advised of the appeal process at the time of the
application.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: Okay. All right.
Sir, could you express the arrest. And would you also
explain how many years you did in prison.
MR. BOOTH: Well, the arrest was I was caught
with the marijuana, so I did sign the deal. I did admit
that I was wrong. And I was on the I-10 on the way to
Atlanta. I'm from California. Young and dumb, thinking
that was the best way to making money. But I haven't
been in trouble since then, and I've been working ever
since then.

I did five and a half years on the six-year
prison sentence. And I did five more, I did a half,
like six months on parole. Which I'd never been in
Texas before, but they made me stay there to finish my
parole. So, you know. They let me go. I was living in
motels and everything, just to keep my parole. But I
did complete my parole and everything.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: Okay.
MR. BOOTH: It was just a young and dumb
mistake. So that's what it was. I was a very young,
stupid dude, made a lot of young mistakes. But I
haven't been in trouble since then.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: Thank you.
Board questions? Board Member Gronauer?
BOARD MEMBER GRONAUER: Yes, sir.
How long have you been a resident of Nevada?
MR. BOOTH: Sir, I've been a resident this time
right here, about nine months, eight months, sir, eight
or nine months, close to that.
BOARD MEMBER GRONAUER: Are you working now?
MR. BOOTH: Yes, sir, two jobs. I work for the
Aztec Casino. And right now, I'm doing the warehouse
work right now for Culvert.

was, when I got out, it was legal, so I was mad, too.
But being that I had something, you know, my prior
record was so bad, I went ahead and signed it and took
it. But it was 55 pounds of weed that would get me
$6,000.

your name's on this one, too.
MR. SALADINO: Yes, sir. Mr. Divetro was asked
to come back after the September Board meeting, with the
Henderson police report from the incident from his
conviction of burglary and impersonating a peace
officer.
According to the Henderson Police Department,
the applicant entered Sunset Spa, the Sunset Spa with
the intent of committing a crime of impersonating a

peace officer. The intention was shown. There were a
series of similar events at other locations. The
applicant did, in fact, show a badge, identify himself
as a police officer, placed down the police scanner, and
gave every indication that he was a police officer.
Due to the fact that the applicant did tell the
victim that they were under arrest and unlawfully
detained -- unlawfully detained her against her will,
the applicant was also charged with second degree
kidnapping.
The applicant was convicted of burglary and
impersonating a peace officer.
That was at the request of the Board that we
gather the police report from Henderson. There was
three other events that had tooken place in Henderson,
that once the Sunset Spa came forward, Henderson, you
know, kind of gathered that that was the MO, and those
other events have been closed out.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: Okay. Mr. Divetro,
would you refresh our memory on your account of the
events.
MR. DIVETRO: I had no, I had no connection
with those other. There was three different incidents
that happened. There was a couple of other gentlemen
impersonating a peace officer with a -- with a loaded

weapon. But I wasn't in connection with that.
But I do, I have nothing to deny. I was, I was
guilty of -- I entered the spa not with the intent to
commit a crime. But I was propositioned. And I got --
I was under a lot of distress, under a lot of
medication.
And there's no excuse for what I did. It
doesn't matter how it happened. I fixed it, went to a
detox program. Two days in the detox program, I had a
grand mal seizure, split my head open. I completed a
program.
Since then, I haven't been in any trouble. Way
out of character. It was an unfortunate incident. And
I don't expect anybody to understand about what
happened. But there is the medical report saying what
happened to me, as far as the medication. So I'm not
making any excuses. I'm just stating the facts. And I
have nothing to deny. Just I apologize for what
happened. Never, it was way out of character.

report is significantly different than how you

BOARD MEMBER FLYNN: Okay. What I'm just
saying is that the police version of the report, as well
as what you ended up pleading guilty to, is
significantly different than what you told us here. And
I asked for that report. I would give you the benefit
of the doubt. So. And we also have a -- you know, a
recency.
So I appreciate your coming back. And I
appreciate you trying. So we'll see what happens this
morning. Or this afternoon. It's been a long day.
I'm done.

additional questions from the Board?
Seeing none, I'd accept a motion.
MR. DIVETRO: Could I say something else?

is asking if he may say something.

turn my life around. And I haven't had a problem since.

back here, because I -- you told me to come back in a
year. I didn't come back in a year. So I came back.
Then they told me to come -- there was too much in
recency. So I came back again. And now, and they told
me to come back again, and now I'm back again.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: Okay. I just have a
question. When did you complete your probation?
MR. DIVETRO: It's kind of a blur, I mean.
MR. INGRAM: Investigator Saladino is checking
that for you, sir.

the probationary was discharged on 8-26 of '16.

application.

motion to uphold the denial. Do I have a second?

problem than what we had earlier. So that's why my
motion is as it is.
That's all. Thank you.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: Thank you,
Mr. Gronauer.
I'm going to support the motion. I think, I
still think the recency. I think, the explanation. I
think, the -- a variety of things. So that.
So, with that said, all in favor of the motion,
signify by saying "aye."
(Board members said "aye.")

Mr. Divetro, the denial has been upheld.
Again, you have the opportunity to come back in a year.

MR. SALADINO: Yes, sir.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: All right.
MR. SALADINO: The applicant was denied for a
1996 theft charge that started off as a felony burglary,
reduced to theft. There was a 1997 burglary. Another
theft in '97. A felony robbery in '04, where they
received, where the applicant received 87 days in jail
and three years of probation, along with a fine.
The applicant had been previously denied and is
coming back again to -- you know, a year later. We do
have 1203.4 paperwork now for the dismissal of the
felony robbery. And that was all provided on this
go-round with the application.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: What I see in front of
me reflects that she did not disclose any of these in
this application?
MS. GARRETT: No.
BOARD MEMBER NIXON: That's not for --
MR. SALADINO: On the notes there, it says she

Nunzio.
MR. GUADAGNI: Sure. Nunzio means messenger.
MR. INGRAM: Mr. Chairman, if I may, Nunzio had
approached me in the hallway to let me know that if
everybody could speak up a little bit during his inquiry
here, he would appreciate it. He is a little hard of
hearing.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: Okay. Good. We'll do
that.
Investigator Saladino, is this yours, also?
MR. SALADINO: Yes, sir. The applicant was
denied for a 1997 conspiracy to possess a controlled
substance, meth, which was a felony. Also, a
falsification of a firearm form, which is -- it was also
in 1987.
The applicant listed both felony convictions.

The firearms, falsification of the firearm form ran
concurrent with the possession charge. The applicant
was released from parole on 5-10 of '92. And he did
disclose it. And those were the only arrests on his
history.
I also received a letter from one our
licensees, George B. Barros, license number 2358, that,
you know, speaks to his character, on how he's known him
for years. He did have the, you know, mishap early on,
in ninety -- in '87. And there's been no other
situation or arrest with law enforcement moving forward.
He also, Mr. Barros also stated, if he was approved for
his registered work card, he would have a job for him,
with no concerns whatsoever.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: Thank you,
Investigator.
Mr. Guadagni, could you please explain the
circumstances of the arrest?

arrest?

to be somebody. I got with a bodyguard to an Italian
mob guy in San Diego. And then I was his bodyguard.
And I got caught. There was a big investigation on him.
I didn't even know. If I did, I wouldn't have joined
them.
BOARD MEMBER FLYNN: Okay.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: Okay. Thank you.
MR. GUADAGNI: And I made a mistake. But I
did -- may I say something, please?
I did help the judge, who he used to be the
prosecutor, settle the case that he had. He asked me
for help, and I had it, I helped him when I was out.
When I was done with parole, I was running a
single-resident occupancy hotel. And one of my tenants
was -- he wanted her to come in with him. She was
scared. She didn't want to go anywhere. Because the
guy was a gang member. So I told him I would bring her
to court. And I did it, I brought her to court, safely,
and brought her home. She testified and everything.
And he told me, "Whenever you need anything,
let me now. I owe you. You did help, a great job."
And he told me, "Why, why did you do that? You know
you're an ex-con." I said, "You know what, I want to
turn my life over."

MR. GUADAGNI: I'm trying to prove myself.
Like San Diego, I was doing security there. I had a
guard card there, in San Diego. And other things out
here, it's much better, more money. And me and the
mother of my children were not getting along. So I had
placed them. I needed to move, couldn't pay rent there.
Rent's so high. So I moved out here.

BOARD MEMBER FLYNN: All right. How are you
today?
MS. KEARNEY: Fine.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: Investigator Saladino,
I have your name on this one, too.
MR. SALADINO: Yes, sir. According to his
SCOPE, our local SCOPE, for the background, the
applicant is a seven-time convicted felon. He has been
arrested 17 times in Nevada, along with 10 citations for
possession, trespassing and failing to register with the
county as a felon.
Now that we have the fingerprint report, most
of the convictions -- the one in '92, out of Florida,
received a year and a half. The grand theft, another
year and a half. They weren't really high prison
sentences. But they were felonies nonetheless.
His last arrest was in 1996, here in Las Vegas,
for possession of drug paraphernalia, which it looks
like the courts threw out, as it was denied.
Other than that, he's been -- you know, no
run-ins with law enforcement.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: The report I'm looking
at shows a 2001 arrest.
MR. SALADINO: Oh, I'm sorry. Out of Michigan,

MR. SALADINO: There was a '99 possession of
cocaine. 2001, larceny, out of Michigan as well.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: Okay. All right. Very
good. Thank you, Investigator.
Mr. Kearney, would you explain your arrests,
arrest history, and.
MR. KEARNEY: Mr. Chairman and Board, a long
story short, I was an extremely heavy crack-addicted
person. I was the person you saw right there on Owens
in Las Vegas. I had no sense of direction. I was just,
basically, lost in drugs.
It took prison, homelessness and God to bring
me where I am today. My last conviction was two years,
scared me to death. I got out of prison. I went to the
V.A. Which I'm honorably discharged. They put me in an
extensive program for four years, four long years. It
was the best thing that ever happened in my life. I've
never looked back since.
I've been married for 26 years. My wife and I
raised 16 children, who've never been in trouble. And
I'm proud of that. That's all I have.
I've been working in other states in security,
because no one would give me a job here in Nevada. This

wife and I are afraid of -- and just I can't continue to
sleep in the car and send my money home. It's just not
a life.
So I'm asking you, Mr. Chairman and the Board,
to allow me to work as a non-armed guard at minimum
wage. Thank you.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: Thank you, Mr. Kearney.
Would your wife like to say anything, or?
MRS. KEARNEY: Yes. I just want to say he's
been very productive and supportive of our kids and
family, and did just recently raise like three
grandchildren. And he really has turned his life around
tremendously. And I'm very proud of him.

MR. SALADINO: Yes, sir. The applicant was
denied for a 1994 concealed weapon violation, which was
a misdemeanor, out of California, where he received
three years of probation and 31 days in jail. The
applicant did not disclose this misdemeanor conviction.
It was found on the fingerprint report.
There was also a 1989 theft of personal
property, which was a misdemeanor, in California as
well, where he received one year probation, one day in
jail, and a fine.

Mr. Perez, would you explain why you didn't
disclose. Number one, explain the arrests. And, number
two, why you did not disclose.
MR. PEREZ: I didn't disclose it because
actually I didn't even remember that being on my record,
as far as when I got in trouble with that concealed
weapon.
And as far as the concealed weapon, I had an
issue with my dad. And I forgot that the gun was in the
car. And I got pulled over, and they found it and
stuff. And I wouldn't have got a ticket if it was
showing. I only got a ticket because it was inside the
door panel, the pocket of the door panel and stuff, so
they considered it a concealed weapon, because they
couldn't see it right off the bat.
And as far as the theft, that I can remember,
it was a box of condoms that I took from a Long's drug
store. Basically, that was it on that one. And I got
caught with the condoms.

time?
MR. PEREZ: I did some jail time, yeah, I did.
It was pretty much the 30 days that he's talking about.
But, again, it was a long time ago. I just don't
remember being in jail that long.
BOARD MEMBER COLBERT: Were you arrested on
both of them, or do you know? I mean did you do jail
time for each charge?
MR. PEREZ: For the gun charge, they did take
me into custody. But they let me go with a citation.
And as far as the other one, they did take me into
custody. So it's one day on each one of them. But when
I went to court, they gave me the 30 days.
BOARD MEMBER COLBERT: And did they confiscate
the gun?

MR. SALADINO: Yes, sir. The applicant was
denied for a 2009 possession of a firearm, which was a
misdemeanor out of California. The applicant did
receive one year probation and was told to stay out of
trouble for four months. He did disclose this
conviction. And the one-year probation and four months
was verified on the fingerprint report.
At the time of the denial, I was awaiting the
fingerprint report. Since getting it, it does show the
one-year probation, four months stay out of trouble.
And, again, this was disclosed. That was the only
arrest on the applicant's arrest history, and that was
the 2009.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: Thank you,
Investigator. And the denial was based on the firearm
violation?
MR. SALADINO: Correct.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: Thank you.
All right. Mr. Powns, would you explain the
arrest and the circumstances around it.
MR. POWNS: At the time, I was 19 years old,
fresh out of high school. I graduated at 17. My son
got incarcerated -- not incarcerated. Sorry about that.
My son got taken by the Department of Social Services,
so I was going through a hard time. I was a single

father, and he was three years old.
It was a lot of partying. I guess, I was one
of the only ones with no record. I got stuck with it.
And just by getting out, trying to gain custody of my
son, I jumped on my first few and didn't know the
system. So there was no probation. I didn't have to
check in with anybody.
I stuck with school. A lot of sweatshops. I
moved me and my mother to Nevada a year and a half ago.
I worked at Walmart last year out here.
I'm just trying to better myself to show my
three sons now. I have two sons that were born in
Nevada, that I just had last year and this year. I'm
just trying to be a better man in life now, you know,
being married. I really got to look at things, I guess,
so. I'm just changing me. It was so long ago, I'm
surprised I still remember it, so.
Other than that, it was one young mistake. And
I grew up in Watts, so, worst area you can find in L.A.
So not my fault, but my apologies.
That's about it.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: Board questions? Board
Member Nixon?
BOARD MEMBER NIXON: No, sir.

with that, I'll go with that one.
MR. SALADINO: Mr. Chairman, Investigator
Saladino again.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: Thank you.
MR. SALADINO: The applicant was denied for a
1999 possession of a concealed weapon. It was a
misdemeanor. He did pay a fine for it. Or was supposed
to pay a fine for it. The second charge that you see
there, September 27th of the '98, that possession charge
was the same one. The first one had gone to a warrant,
and then he had to do the 60 days in jail. The
applicant did list this on his application. And that's
why we're here today.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: All right. Thank you,
Investigator.

Mr. Williams, will you explain the arrest, and.
MR. WILLIAMS: At the time -- and I also want
to say, you said '99. It was '96.
MR. SALADINO: I'm sorry. '96.
MR. WILLIAMS: Right. I was young, misled, no
direction. And I don't know what to say other than I
got to take responsibility for it, you know. I'm not
that person anymore. I tried to stay out of trouble as
much as I can.
Since then, I've been a single father for seven
years. I've watched three children graduate high
school. And my son is now in Jamestown, North Dakota,
on a football scholarship, and he just got honorable
mention for the GPAC division for wide receiver this
year.
So the person you see on paper and the person
you see now are two separate people. And I've learned.
And I've moved on. And I'm trying to find some kind of
work that works with me. You know, I did construction
and demolition and stuff like that. It's too bad for my
knees now, you know. I'm old, so. So, you know. I got
to need something that's more accommodating for me.
And, I think, the security position would help me out in
a big way.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: Okay. Thank you.

Investigator Saladino again.
The applicant was denied for a 2004 bank fraud,
which was a felony. The applicant did report it on his
application at the time he filled out his application.
At the time the denial went through, I did not have the
fingerprint reports. But now I have the fingerprint

report. And the applicant received 36 months of
probation, had to pay a restitution of $9,750.35. And
there was a $100 assessment for the court fees and
whatnot attached to it as well. Everything has been
completed for the courts.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: Okay. Mr. Yates, could
you explain what the circumstances were.
MR. YATES: Yes, sir. Unfortunately, it's the
case made here today about being young and dumb. At the
time, my mother's household was under foreclosure. She
was on a third mortgage. And I couldn't think of any
other way to get the money, a regular job. So I was
just being young and stupid in trying to help her, yeah.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: So how did you get the
money?
MR. YATES: How did I get the money? I got
police. No, I didn't get the money. My older brother,
he actually stepped in. And to this day, he still owns
the house.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: Okay. Questions from
the Board. Board Member Flynn?
BOARD MEMBER FLYNN: None.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: Board member Gronauer?
BOARD MEMBER GRONAUER: Yeah, I'm a little bit

The answer, wait a minute, you had to pay back $9,000.
MR. YATES: Oh that. Right after that -- it's
funny, it takes you getting in trouble to actually do
the right thing. For me, the right, that I started
working at Circuit City. And I got a second job. I was
Dave Chapelle's bodyguard for Chapelle Season 2.
BOARD MEMBER GRONAUER: Thank you. I'm good.

Colbert?
BOARD MEMBER COLBERT: No.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: I must have missed

MR. YATES: It was check fraud. It was check
fraud. So I gave someone a fake check, and they went
into a bank and they deposited it. They got to court,
well, the bank teller got to court, and she told on the
guy, and the guy told on me.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: Okay. That clears it
up for me.
BOARD MEMBER COLBERT: Yeah.
BOARD CHAIRMAN NADEAU: Was it a one-time
occurrence, or was there a series of checks?
MR. YATES: Of course, one time. No, one time.
