Past driving experience reporting help
Hello everyone first of all, yes I am an idiot. I worked for a "business" consisting of 2 trucks. All work was done on paper logs and cash payments to me. I was on a intermodal dedicated route (2) different ports. The man who owned the company to my knowledge went under right after I left. I LOVED my job but left finally because of repeated check shortages and fuel card didn't work half the time no reimbursement for diesel.
My problem lies with we did not separate on good terms he repeatedly accused me of stealing diesel (for what exactly he could never say) despite me providing receipts with details i even would get the cashier to give name and sign receipts so he could verify that it was a legit purchase only for fuel. Would call me while driving and threatening to whith hold pay because I do not use my phone while driving, I called him back every time I stopped and he would not have any reason he needed me to talk ie. No emergency just wanted to make conversation, this man would not meet face to face unless he had his loaded postal with him. For context I am 5'3" tall female him 5'11"? Man.
I finally just walked away from him and all the money he owed me in April of 2017 when he stole all my receipts logs and load sheets out of the truck while parked. I haven't been on the road since.
How do I report this experience to prospective companies exactly? I don't know his phone number as the one I had doesn't work his shop and building are gone from where I met him and maintained his truck. I doubt he wouldn't lie to new jobs but there would be no way could he ever backup his claims. Am I just out of trucking forever or what should I do?

"I say apply for jobs, give the dates you worked for him along with the address and phone numbers you have and tell them that he went out of business. I would leave all the drama and accusations out of the story."
Thank you that is exactly what I needed.
