The two companies that were once again recommended for the contract, but which nevertheless expressed serious concerns with police department’s process in recommending towers were All Ways Towing & Transport and Central Towing & Transport.

The company that came in and was recommended to take Walt White’s spot was Jack James Tow.

Alain Morec, who cut his teeth at All Ways, is the manager at Jack James.

Several folks said Morec told them Jack James was getting the Fremont Police Department contract, but the only one who put it in writing were the the top brass at Pro Star Towing, which also competed for the towing contract. The city hired an investigator to look into the allegation. It was “he said/she said,” and the investigator never asked the police any questions.

The tow truck operator who rented a room to a now retired traffic officer is Quinn P. of Central Towing. I forget how to spell his last name. It rhymes with mining. The cop who rented the room was Quinn’s friend, Chris Guckert. They said they disclosed the arrangement to Guckert’s superiors, and that it was approved.

Three of the four officers inspecting the tow truck companies last year were friends of Morec. The cop that went to his baby shower (according to Morec) and made more than a dozen cell phone calls to Morec (according to city records) in the first part of last year was Officer John Rosette.

It’s not classified information, is it?

Knowing the names of the outfits involved, enables me to make an informed decision the next time I need a tow.

thanks.

Euphxenos, next time someone blocks your driveway and you can’t get your car to the street, tell the PD that when you call. It becomes a safety issue and they should respond. If they don’t, ask what recourse you have. People can park on the street anytime, but they cannot block access by parking in your driveway. They deserve to be towed.
