    I spoke to the manager of the Barea KY Walmart. Walmart DID hire the parking enforcement company. What few people understand is that the parking enforcement company (PEC) is supposed to attempt to wake the driver. After that, and assuming that the truck is empty (abandoned, parked without permission) then they are supposed to boot the vehicle. PEC is not making an attempt to wake anyone. They very lightly tap on the window. Next, they apply a windshield boot then they BEAT on the truck , wake the driver and demand $500 within 1 hour. The police know this and they do not hold the PEC accountable. It is BS and it needs to stop. A look into what is really going on almost always shows some crooked crap. It is not Walmart's intention that sleeping drivers be booted and extorted but it is what is happening.
