We understand there have been allegations that we destroyed a camper that did not belong to us.
The facts are simple. We have owned that camper since 2020 and have documentation supporting our ownership. On June 23, 2026, a title application was filed by Mr. Reynolds fraudulently using paperwork from an individual who had sold the camper 15 years earlier and no longer owned it. The Michigan Secretary of State opened a fraud investigation, and as of 9:56 a.m. on June 25, 2026, the camper has been restored to our name where it rightfully belongs.
Mr. Reynolds still owes us a significant amount of money on the vehicle he is currently driving, so we understand emotions may be running high. However, facts and documentation matter.
There were no pets inside the camper when it was dismantled. The abandoned animals found on the property were safely turned over to the Kalkaska County Sheriff's Department, unharmed. No one was inside the camper, and no one was injured. If anyone has doubts, they are welcome to request the public records through the FOIA process.

In some people's story, we're the villain. In others, we're the ones who stepped up to help. We'll let the facts speak for themselves.
