Interview with Staff two (S2) who was reportedly present during the interaction with R1 and S1 denied S1 yelling at R1 and denied S1 threatening to call the police.

Although the allegation may have happened or is valid, there is no preponderance of evidence to prove the alleged violation did or did not occur, therefore the allegation is unsubstantiated. An exit interview was conducted, and a copy of this report was provided to Executive Director Bowie.
