1. “[Defendant] came to me and said, “Let’s” — There was something that needed to be done or he wanted done on the home, and the credit cards were to their maximum limit, and we did not have the funds to do whichever, I can’t remember specifically, and he told me to borrow the money from R&D Plastics. And when I questioned him how, he said, “Well, just go upstairs and take the stamp out of Mom’s drawer and just stamp the check and put it into Technicraft.””
