I too was hauling trailers for Horizon transport that were labeled fema campers but they were not. While taking a shower one night in the driver breakroom at horizon, the night guard said that while working at a private party at marion shrocks house he heard marion bragging about ripping off the government through fema contracts by back charging fema to move new units to dealers during and after the disaster, he said fema had no way of knowing and paid for all unit transort from his terminal no matter its destination and horizon transport pocketed the dealer transport fee that also were paid by dealers to transport their new inventoryâ€¦â€¦.big time doulble dipping, the guard heard him say he took them for $60 million.

I have seen these FEMA trailers in Hope. There are acres and acres of nothing but….almost as far as the eye can see. I did a little research because I was thinking about purchasing one for my daughter to stay in while in college. Many of these trailers have levels of formaldehyde, some levels toxic. There is no way I would purchase one and put my child in it.

I still don’t get why folks living in these trailers don’t move to some other part of the country, get jobs and start over. I’ve very sorry you lost your home however Americans lose homes every day to other things like foreclosure and aren’t given trailers to live in. They forclose, rent and start over.

The article said that FEMA had to donate them to federal, state or local governments before putting them up for sale. I work for a state government and would like to know how to get some of these trailers for use as health care facilities.

We just returned from Louisiana and the Mississippi Gulfcoast. I think that people should see for themselves the devastation. Recovery isn’t happening fast enough. I thought we’d never reach a point where we didn’t see the skeleton of someone’s house or business and clusters of white trailers. Americans simply did not get the full picture of Katrina’s wrath from what was reported in the media. If the folks in New Orleans and Mssissippi feel forgotten, I wouldn’t blame them. We don’t hear much about Katrina anymore. Yet many places look as though Katrina happened just yesterday.

We would like to buy one of these trailers, ours is still falling apart from the hurricanines that passed this area in 2004. We have spent over 20 thousand, new roof, ect. Our floors are still caving in, the walls are caving in, our electricity does not work as it does before.

The sad thing about all this is that FEMA was known as a model gov’t. agency during the Clinton years. Bushco. turned in into a patronage perq for political hacks, just like the CPA in IRAQ. Many are now saying New Orleans will never recover.

So far, Bush’s stupidity and incompetence have managed to destroy one country, one major American city, and one country’s reputation. He really out to be impeached, if only as a precaution before he can wreck anything else.

Has anyone heard wether or not Horizon Transport in Wakarusa,IN has been investigated for fema camper fraud, I was a driver of many of their fema campers and I hauled campers all over this country that were labeled fema camper on the bill of laden but yet they really were not fema campers……..far from it…it seems fema paid good money to dealers for their inventory, and paid to move those campers down the road to where they were needed, and then fema without knowing paid to move replacements of dealer inventories from the factories in Indiana to the dealer lots where fema name was removed from such campers and then sold to the public……also can you believe the dealer invoice was more than triple the factory invoice that I carried with those campers. Horizon transport has a dispatcher named Dan who told me during a smoke break out behind the office all about the doulble dipping scheme Marion Shrock cooked up to make a financial killing last year after katrina….Marion learned he could do this after the previous hurricane season where he noticed fema did not pay any attention to this…..I was just curious if anyone has any knowledge of horizon being investigated of this….I reported it to many government sources while it was happening but no one ever contacted me to testify…amongst those sources were senators, attorney general gonzales, and governor jeb bush who just had his associate call and tell me there was nothing they could do about this.
