People did not listen to anything I said
We made several compassionate representations about this Pinot but the authorities did not listen to us at all, which is what saddens us the most. The officers raided my house and said you are a drug dealer. I sat outside my house for four-five hours. Authorities searched my house for peanuts and raccoons, found the raccoons and squirrels, captured them, and euthanized them.
