Complaint Review: Fernando Castillo

My son had loaned his beloved clarinets, valued at over $5,000 to a supposed friend, Fernando Castillo. He kept hesitating to return the clarinets when my son asked him to. After two weeks, Fernando calls my son to say that the clarinets were stolen from his car. We kept asking him to file a police report with the Monrovia police where his car was supposedly broken into.

Whenever the police tried to contact him to interview him about the stolen items, he totally evaded them. Later, I heard he bought a car. He works at the 24 hr fitness in Pasadena.

Whenever I called over there, his fellow employees would make excuses for him. He never answered my calls. He never offered to compensate for the clarinets or even said he was sorry.
