Where is the 'South Beach Tow' cast now?

'South Beach Tow' is a docudrama, produced by Jennifer Lopez, that follows the exploits of a family-run towing company in Miami's South Beach. The show was broadcast on tru TV for 4 seasons, from July 20, 2011, to December 10, 2014. The plot ended dramatically in the last episode, 'Checkmate', which was broadcast on December 3, 2014. A week later, on December 10, a special episode 'Bernice's Top 20' ended the series after 87 episodes. After that, the show became uncertain, leading many to believe it had been canceled. According to reports, truTV never formally declared it was canceled but finally removed it from the program schedule. Despite the show being largely fictional, Tremont Towing and South Beach Towing are actual towing businesses located in Miami Beach and Gladeview, respectively. 'South Beach Tow' has featured numerous iconic characters over the course of its four seasons, such as Dave Kosgrove, Lakatriona Brunson, and Robert Ashenoff Jr. Where are they now?
