The door was damaged prior to Ryan finishing it off. The damage; 4 bolts that cost $40, the other $431 was for labor, which was conveniently provided by the Genesee County Highway Dept.. I don't know how long it takes to replace 4 bolts on a cell door, but if it was 1 guy for 10 hours, he was making $43 an hour.. I hope they saved the video, cause I smell cooked books. Offering a false instrument for filing is a serious charge.
