But you know, I'd just like to 32 00:01:41,520 --> 00:01:43,319 Speaker 3: acknowledge the girls did a great job life night. They 33 00:01:43,319 --> 00:01:44,880 Speaker 3: did exactly what they needed to do. You know, the 34 00:01:45,200 --> 00:01:47,320 Speaker 3: money and the stock and the damage, that's all stuff 35 00:01:47,319 --> 00:01:47,800 Speaker 3: we can fix. 36 00:01:47,920 --> 00:01:52,360 Speaker 1: But yeah, making sure that they're safe and that they 37 00:01:52,400 --> 00:01:55,480 Speaker 1: are okay is is the main thing, and they would 38 00:01:55,480 --> 00:01:58,800 Speaker 1: have been pretty terrified. I'd suspect watching that vision, mate, 39 00:01:58,800 --> 00:01:59,240 Speaker 1: I've had a. 40 00:01:59,240 --> 00:01:59,720 Speaker 2: Look at it. 41 00:01:59,720 --> 00:02:05,520 Speaker 1: It's you know, when when the vehicle basically goes through 42 00:02:05,520 --> 00:02:09,000 Speaker 1: those roller doors, you see the damage to the stock, 43 00:02:09,080 --> 00:02:14,080 Speaker 1: and then you see people just helping themselves. 44 00:02:12,520 --> 00:02:15,080 Speaker 3: Like cut up in pubs for twenty five years up 45 00:02:15,120 --> 00:02:17,080 Speaker 3: in Darwin, and then this is and we've we've had 46 00:02:17,080 --> 00:02:18,799 Speaker 3: our own leon and I've had our own business for 47 00:02:18,840 --> 00:02:21,919 Speaker 3: you know, sixteen years, different businesses.

And you've seen the footage. A 52 00:02:35,240 --> 00:02:38,040 Speaker 3: lot of them weren't wearing masks, they weren't wearing gloves, 53 00:02:38,040 --> 00:02:41,840 Speaker 3: they weren't wearing shoes. They don't they don't care. There's 54 00:02:41,919 --> 00:02:44,799 Speaker 3: there's no consequences. They obviously they just don't care. We've 55 00:02:44,880 --> 00:02:47,560 Speaker 3: got plenty of fingerprints with one of them caught himself 56 00:02:47,600 --> 00:02:50,400 Speaker 3: quite badly on the roller door, and I hope it hurts, 57 00:02:51,480 --> 00:02:53,240 Speaker 3: but you know, we've got plenty of d NAM, we've 58 00:02:53,280 --> 00:02:55,600 Speaker 3: got plenty of camera footage, and the place were fantastic 59 00:02:55,639 --> 00:02:58,160 Speaker 3: at place were here within a couple probably fifteen twenty 60 00:02:58,160 --> 00:03:02,040 Speaker 3: minutes of recall than one of our managers's done. YALTI 61 00:03:02,120 --> 00:03:05,560 Speaker 3: isier contaminants. I wasn't far behind them. So the police 62 00:03:05,600 --> 00:03:08,160 Speaker 3: were fantastic forensics for right quickly. You know, we both 63 00:03:08,160 --> 00:03:09,720 Speaker 3: four o'clock that they've done a lot of work and 64 00:03:09,760 --> 00:03:12,200 Speaker 3: we're able to tidy outfit. As you can see.

Yeah, 84 00:04:18,640 --> 00:04:20,520 Speaker 3: ninety's the start for our face. 85 00:04:22,240 --> 00:04:26,680 Speaker 1: Oh mate, I'm bloody heartbroken listening to this morning. 86 00:04:27,360 --> 00:04:31,800 Speaker 3: I know I told you about crocodile, I know, and. 87 00:04:31,720 --> 00:04:33,760 Speaker 1: You know what, I think everybody's going to be pretty 88 00:04:33,760 --> 00:04:36,720 Speaker 1: heartbroken listening to this because you've actually made it really. 89 00:04:37,960 --> 00:04:40,440 Speaker 2: Very a very personal. 90 00:04:40,040 --> 00:04:42,359 Speaker 1: Story for everybody in the sense that your daughter's in 91 00:04:42,400 --> 00:04:46,040 Speaker 1: there then in that room, and the other female staff 92 00:04:46,080 --> 00:04:49,600 Speaker 1: member in the office locked in there while this is 93 00:04:49,640 --> 00:04:53,479 Speaker 1: all happening.

It's got 115 00:05:51,279 --> 00:05:54,359 Speaker 1: everything to do with the lawlessness that we're seeing on 116 00:05:54,400 --> 00:05:56,720 Speaker 1: the streets, you know, and the fact that you've got 117 00:05:56,760 --> 00:06:00,920 Speaker 1: people breaking in and just helping themselves is disgusting. 118 00:06:01,480 --> 00:06:04,360 Speaker 3: It's disgusting.
