Walter Moniz is a crook and dirty business man. He has people’s belongings from W&W Moving and Storage, LLC stored in the Orpheum Theater. He is not licensed by the State nor the city of New Bedford to store belongings anywhere other than 810 S. 1st st. His employees stole most of my belongings after moving my apartment.
