I keep remembering his wierdness with the text messages and brother you posted about. the "beach incident" and several other abusive episodes he's put you through.
then he makes an entrance, pleads his case and when you see him doing something so obviously sneaky with whatever contraband...he blatantly pees on your leg and tells you "it's raining".
don't believe a word he says unless it's in writing and the check is good.
