I am not sure why they would expect him to smell anything anyway. he would have hooked up to the car from the frontend and depending on the equipment that they have, he might not have even needed to touch the car or get that close to it.
When he dropped it in the yard, he would have probably backing it into a spot and dropped it off the truck.
Much ado about nothing from the A's as usual.
He hooked up from the back. I thought the car was backed in, but it was nosed in. Here is part of his interview on hook up and smell.
GR: They reported they had a car on the side. I had the private property removal
2 sheet filled out. They signed off on it. The car itself was parked next to the
3 dumpster.
4 JW: Uh-hum (affirmative).
5 GR: Near there, nosed in.
6 JW: Right.
7 GR: Being a front wheel drive car I checked to see if it was unlocked because
8 sometimes you can put them in neutral. and move them, but it was locked.
9 JW: Right.
10 GR: So I hooked up to the rear and I had the sling dollies, which is basically the small
11 wheels with the rack so you don't have to pull on the drive axle. And I just put
12 the domes in the front, on the front wheels, because I hooked up from the rear.
13 And I towed it in. And that's it. I didn't notice anything different or anything about
14 the car. The only thing I did, I did notice that stood out in my mind was a child
15 seat in the backseat.
16 JW: Uh-hum (affirmative).
17 GR: And I thought it was irresponsible as hell to be leaving a car like that if you have
18 a child that young.
19 JW: Right.
20 GW: And that's the only thing. I didn't notice anything different
21 JW: Uh, did you notice a odor coming from the car or anything?
22 GW: No.
23 JW: Alright.
24 GW: I will, however, I will say this. I just started back here, I think it was on the back
25 side of a cold, and ..
1 JW: Oh, so you couldn't smell anything?
2 GW: E ... even if I, if it was something I probably wouldn't have noticed it.
