Join Lisa Belanger and Marcia Southwick as they give their thoughts on the Britany Spears case an the changing of the proverbial guard. Her father might be stepping down, but all this means is a new conservator will be taking his place. One more likely to know how to navigate the corrupt probate system. Why didn’t this new attorney petition to end the conservatorship? Has he called for an audit of her estate? Who will be allowed to continue siphoning money from the estates and why? So many questions, so few honest answers.
Spoiler Alert: “Dad” isn’t stepping down! HE has filed an objection. After all, how will he maintain his lifestyle if he is no longer able to access her funds?
We will also be covering the ongoing Netflix debacle. Why did they pull the Dirty Money episode, Guardians Inc? What happened to the lawsuits?

I have been asked once again to repost this article I originally wrote in 2011. Here we are ten years later and nothing has changed except for the fact that the corruption is so rampant, so obvious that as a country we are foundering on the edge of collapse due in large part to nothing more than the judicial system itself is a publicly recognized criminal racket.
_______________________________________________
The routine exclusion of evidence, the statements by more than one judge to the effect that the law is what they say it is, and, that in their court they don’t want to hear about your rights, should have us all demanding an investigation.
_________________________________________________
Since posting my article on the current condition of our judicial system, I have received numerous emails and phone calls from individuals across the country. Based on these continuing communications I have concluded that the average citizen is in far more danger stepping into a court room of any kind, than from any commonly recognized criminal activity on the street. At least with a street criminal you stand a chance of defending yourself.
Many of the people who contacted me spoke of going so far as to meet with the FBI in the hopes of getting an investigation launched into the criminal conduct of not only judges, but also of state agency actors who, acting under the auspices of their offices repeatedly violated not only the law but the civil and lawful rights of individuals. Many of these actors believe they are immune from prosecution due to the office they hold. While the office itself may be immune, the individual occupying it can be held personally liable under a constitutional tort. This can be intentional or negligent. These tort claims hold the official directly and personally responsible for their actions; which is exactly why “tort reform” is high on the agenda of things to get done, in the District of Criminals. http://www.law.harvard.edu/students/orgs/crcl/vol38_2/park.pdf
In absolutely every case, without exception, of those who approached the FBI in their respective states, a stock answer was delivered to those hopeful for some kind of help from this agency. That answer is: More
In January, 2019, Shelley Thomson was abducted from her home in New Braunfels, Texas under color of law. She was falsely accused of being “incapacitated” and assigned to Texas Health and Human Services (HHSC) as her guardian. She was moved to a nursing home, and her house and other possessions sold to cover guardian and nursing home expenses, as well as legal costs to keep her “incarcerated.” Her human and legal rights have been abrogated, and she undergoes daily abuse, including malnutrition, isolation, denial of exercise, involuntary or hidden drugging, neglect, and a long list of other abuses. Shelley is a scientist, articulate, has career ambitions, and advocates for herself daily against all odds in a corrupt probate system.
Shelley’s attorney, Phil Ross, has volunteered to liberate her because he believes a grave injustice has been committed. After 2 years, about 300 legal filings and appeals, he recently filed several motions, including permission for Shelley to have access to what little cash is left in her account so she can continue to defend herself; preventing the state of Texas from using that money for prepaid funeral expenses; asking for damages for using the funeral gambit as a form of illegal retaliation against Shelley and Phil; asking the court for a fair mental examination; moving the jurisdiction to a fairer state probate court; requesting a jury trial; and restoring Shelley’s capacity so she can be released from guardianship.
A court hearing on these motions is scheduled for Thursday June 3 at 9:00 am CDT, New Braunfels, Texas time. Zoom Link: https://txcourts.zoom.us/j/5022885368
This hearing is open to the public, and we invite all to attend. Irrespective of the ruling, during the hearing (but most likely after the hearing after the judge leaves the courtroom), there will be an opportunity to comment and present evidence, and this will go into the record.

Join us this evening as various individuals protesting the horrendous “guardianship” racket in Australia. The trustee’s in Australia are openly hunting elderly victims who can be abducted, isolated and robbed blind all under tribunal protection. A recent protest against the elder racketeering has elicited various threats against the protestors, and several calls were made to shut them down. The protest was under permit and was peaceful.
Guardianship in its current state is a global racket. The elderly who should be cared for are instead viewed as prey and are subject to having their lives ended prematurely.
Australia rivals only the U.S. in its insidious treatment of the elderly. Other countries are following suit and also hunting and targeting the elderly who are marked for eradication. Globally, the elderly are considered a waste population and Australia and the U.S. are leading the way in the culling of those 60 and older.
Join Coz and Marti tonight as they host Liz Rizzo,
Liz Rizzo was Rusty Warren’s companion. Rusty is a well known comedian from the 60’s. She had 7 gold albums from that period. Her cutting edge humor was signified in her popular routine, “Knockers Up!”. At 91, Rusty has fallen prey to guardianship trafficking. Abducted and held captive by her abductors, she is told Liz doesn’t want to see her or talk to her. This is trauma based bonding by the book. Isolated, terrified and suffering from the onset of dementia, everything is being done to dehumanize Rusty and frighten her.
“Rusty was my partner over 35 years, we built a life together. We have a Trust to protect our assets and she put her wishes in writing. Judge Lee in Tucson disregarded the Trust, taunted me about being gay and said I was not credible. I was legally Trustee of the Estate but they challenged it.”
As so many others have discovered, pre existing legal instruments are quickly discarded to allow the predators access to any assets. This was never about Rusty or her well-being. It was only about gaining access to her jointly held estate and stealing as much of it as possible. To do that, Rusty had to be taken prisoner and deprived of her legal capacity.
Please join us as we cover this case which exposes more of the hunting of the elderly for profit.
“In politics, nothing happens by accident. If it happens, you can bet it was planned that way.”

ON APRIL 15, 2020, Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer issued “Executive Order 2020-50“, under the terms of which people infected with respiratory illnesses declared to be ‘COVID-19’ (C19) were transferred from hospitals into nursing homes across the state. Those nursing homes, of course, were filled with residents especially vulnerable to fatal outcomes from exposure to such dangers due to age and co-morbidities typical to the elderly.
The transfers were engineered despite the fact that normal overall hospital capacity was never “overwhelmed” by C19 cases. What’s more, dedicated field hospital facilities had been built (at enormous expense) to provide enormous additional capacity where the infected seniors could be cared for properly while being prudently isolated.
No credible reason of need existed for the transfer of the infected people into nursing homes like an army of Typhoid Marys. Nonetheless, that’s what happened.
In fact, that percentage may be even higher. Serious questions remain as to the possible low-balling of that nursing home fatality figure due to quirky rules about how designated nursing home residents outside of the facilities for some reason after becoming infected (such as hospitalization) are accounted for by the state, and because of Whitmer’s unexplained intransigence on the release of data.
SO WHY DID WHITMER ISSUE (and renew in mid-May) an order which caused pre-mature deaths to so many Michigan citizens? Well, in light of Whitmer’s steady refusal to talk about the matter, scorn of all related FOIA requests from any quarter, being shielded from investigation by her partisan comrade Attorney General Dana Nessel, and her having paid hush-money to her former Director of Public Health upon his departure from office not long ago, I can’t answer that question definitively.
But I can throw out some facts and do some spitballing…
On Monday night, 5 April 2021, Marti Oakley and John Leckrone will be discussing how attorney’s and guardians have been using the maritime admiralty constructive contract and racketeering fraud kangaroo courts to steal property and assets owned by victims of their criminal actions. John will explain what parens patriae is and how it is exercised for the benefit of those in control over the population. Slavery is still alive and well in the United States and until people get to the root of the problem this issue will continue unimpeded.
The intentional failure of probate tribunals to recognize a victims legal capacity, legal agency and legal status has allowed the racket to run wide open. While both state and federal governments turn a blind eye and a deaf ear to what is happening to our elderly and others, families are tormented, disinherited and deprived of their loved one.
The show begins at 8 p.m. Eastern Time, 7 p.m. Central, 6 p.m. Mountain and 5 p.m. Pacific
Let me ask you: Have you heard even one attorney or probate hearing examiner ever refer to the right and preservation of legal capacity for any of the elderly men or women who are targeted, kidnapped and imprisoned in the guardianship racket? Have you heard any probate examiner say they will consider the least restrictive alternative structure for protecting the lives of those targeted for estate theft and exploitation, and then actually follow through with that? No? There is a reason for that. The probate examiner, ministerial clerk, or magistrate is involved heavily in the guardianship racket.
All the while, our elected officials feign disbelief, claim they had no idea what was happening, insist it must be an isolated situation, that no one told them this was happening, and then claim they will look into it and get back to you. They won’t and they don’t. They all know to a greater degree than you or I do exactly what is happening and yet sit silently doing nothing to prevent and stop this system of human trafficking altogether.
“Legal capacity is a human right, “a social and legal status accorded independent of a person’s particular capabilities. Whether an individual has the cognitive ability to understand and appreciate consequences of her decisions—the traditional threshold of the common law—is simply not determinative of whether she has legal capacity. Even if she does not possess those decision-making abilities, she cannot be stripped of her legal capacity.” [1]
In probate tribunals, the living, breathing, man or woman suffers a civil death. These victims are summarily stripped of their identity. Effectively commodified, they lose all rights including, where they choose to live, what medical treatments they do or do not, want. They lose the right to freely associate with family and friends and are stored in a warehouse called a “nursing” home. Most are not allowed phones or any other means of outside contact. Although statutes in every state claim that isolation should be a last resort, in virtually every case it is the first action taken by the predator guardian. And no one says a word about this!
In addition to the loss of legal capacity the victim has also lost the right to and recognition of, “legal agency”. Once in grip of the probate tribunal and their associated lawyers and professional predatory guardians, the loss of legal capacity is complete. They lose all rights to access and control their own assets and may not enter into contracts of any kind or make any decisions regarding their own assets and property.
A number of human rights theorists further break down legal capacity into two parts: “legal status,” which is the ability to hold rights that the state must recognize, and “legal agency,” which is the ability to have one’s decisions recognized by the law. Both of these rights are summarily dismissed and rendered moot in the human trafficking system of guardianship
It just gets worse
So why are they using the term “best interests” and using that as a means and a reason to discard pre-standing legal instruments to determine what the victim intended or wanted? And why are probate examiners allowed to discard these legal instruments that state specifically what the victim would want if these situations occurred? Why aren’t they using a best interpretation of the will and preferences? Why? Because its difficult to steal an estate if you are forced to consider what the victim wanted as opposed to what the guardians want.
Yet everyday across the country, individuals are never informed that they have a right to their legal capacity. Using contrived incapacitation or mental competency as a metric to deprive individuals of their rights to make their own decisions and to be recognized as a living, breathing man or woman, the right to legal capacity is summarily disregarded. This is a major deprivation of rights under US Code 242. [2] It is also a declaration of civil death. You don’t exist. You died, but just haven’t stopped breathing yet.
Here in the US, probate tribunals were established specifically to avoid the constitution and any rights associated with that document. These are not courts of law. These are specially designed tribunals created to allow the unfettered theft of estates and ordinary assets by operating outside of the common law and any rights you thought you had. You have no rights, no protection from these predators and can be subject to probate facilitated kidnapping and imprisonment whenever one of these predators decides you have something they want. Its a system set up for easy pickings for the professional predators, and few, if any, penalties for them.
The activity of professional predatory guardians goes unchecked by the tribunal.
These tribunals were created supposedly because common law, civil and criminal courts, were overloaded with cases so a tertiary system (the tribunal system) had to be created to relieve the stress on actual courts of law. But who in their right mind sets up an alternative tribunal system and then fails to adequately fund it to allow for oversight?
Hearings are held many times without notice to the victim. Many elderly, if they are even allowed to attend hearings, do so without an attorney. There is no due process afforded in these tribunals, no right to defend yourself, no right to present evidence contradicting the charges against you by immoral attorneys and their predator friends, the guardians.
If they are allowed to attend, and, if they have their own attorney familiar to them, that person will be dismissed by the examiner. Then an attorney will be appointed for them that can be depended upon not to interfer with what has been agreed to before your appearance in the tribunal so that the theft of the estate can begin, unimpeded. The tribunal will many times fire a family attorney and appoint one who can be depended upon not to interfer with the plans already agreed to by the tribunal and the predatory guardians and their attorneys. The fix is in. No one is allowed to intervene who is not part of the criminal racket that is now fully operational.
If all else fails, the victim will be subjected to massive doses of pyschotropic drugs rendering them not only dysfunctional, but appearing to be delirious. Nothing is off limits when these predators decide that the victims’ assets should belong to them. In this condition they are summarily judged to be “incapacitated” or “incompetent”. Everyone in that tribunal knows exactly what is going on, including the victim.
It is seldom, if ever, that a victim of this predatory system is able to challenge the predator in the legal system. Isolated, traumatized, and many times chemically restrained to keep them subdued, victims are unable to assert their legal capacity and demand to be set free. This is no accident.
The elderly are being hunted by predators who do not care what happens to them. Isolated from family, friends and even religious connections, they are sequestered away from everyone. Isolated, traumatized and reduced to a commodity to be exploited and abused, they begin to wither, eventually succumbing to a miserable death at the hands of unspeakable monsters.
Guardians, attorneys and probate examiners: These are the predators among us who prey on other human beings.

Join Coz and Marti as Peggy Dupree returns with a huge report! Get your pen and paper ready, because you will want to take notes!
We will be going over Resolution Bill 103 presented by the Bar Association to congress. While many advocates and activists have strongly pushed for supported decision making, the BAR has has co-opted the idea and is recommending it be passed. But nowhere in the BAR resolution are close friends and family members suggested as possible supportive decision makers. In fact, the BAR has recommended only “professionals” be allowed to act in this capacity. Same game, same players. The assault on the elderly moves on with lawyers and predatory guardians feeding on the elderly for profit.
With billions being stolen annually from the elderly under these horrific guardianships, and more than 1.5 million now suffering under extreme hardship as a result, state and federal politicians have sat silent…except when the BAR shows up making demands. With supported decision making widely encouraged by prominent activists and organizations, and the cultural explosion that occurred behind the airing of the Netflix film about guardianship, they had to move fast to maintain control over this honey pot of free money!

Calls for more aggressive prosecution and the acceleration of federal reform
March 3, 2021 – Flagler County, FL – The number one Netflix movie this past week was I Care a Lot and its star Rosamund Pike just won a Golden Globe. The fictional film exposes exploitative aspects of the guardianship industry which may give you chills, but the real-life case of Dr. Lillie Sykes White is worse. Her family and other advocates have launched a petition for the U.S. Department of Justice and Senate Special Committee on Aging to investigate this predatory industry, aggressively prosecute and accelerate reform at the federal level. The petition and a video statement by Dr. White’s sister and only living sibling, Janie Sykes-Kennedy, as well as Dr. White herself, can be viewed at: https://www.change.org/StopPredatoryGuardianships
“I grew up under Jim Crow laws and the unjustness in this guardianship system reminds me of that,” said 85-year-old Sykes-Kennedy. “Families don’t stand a chance when the court itself is facilitating the exploitation and appeals are based on false statements in court records,” she added.
After spending eight years in a fraudulent guardianship in Florida and over four years isolated from loved ones, former Montgomery County Maryland school supervisor Dr. White died alone on December 30, 2020 of COVID-19. Her abduction and forced isolation by the court-appointed guardian and attorney ad litem silenced her voice, facilitated constructive fraud and put her in harm’s way. No official helped despite substantiated violations of Florida statutes by court agents.
“I’d like to go to the judge and talk with the judge and let him know my circumstances, and I can do it better than anybody else,” Dr. White said one month before she was abducted. “Nobody else can do it like I can do it because you see I’m a victim of it,” she added.

REF:My wonderful father George Dahmer back in Feb-2008 had dementia. He ran away from home. He was baker acted to a hospital for meds he was on. Then he was put in a nursing home for 120 days for evaluation for meds. He could walk, talk, and feed himself when he entered the nursing home. After 63 days he was transferred to another nursing home- my father couldn’t walk, talk, or feed himself. It was Devastating. More
Join Coz & Marti tonight as they examine the inner workings of advocacy and activism. Guardianship, just as family court issues, the toxic environment of CPS, and other core issues in the public domain is rife with glory hogs, wannabe celebrity’s and other characters whose only real interest is in the promotion of them selves. The result is chaos as self promoters insert themselves into issues where they are neither wanted or needed. Join us as we discuss the effects of this interference in ongoing cases and how this affects the families involved. Learn the difference between those who blithely throw around the word “WE”, and those who actually work with others towards a goal.
You most likely have encountered one of these people. They call your phone incessantly for days on end demanding you communicate with them, because only they can help you. They email you numerous times a day and leave multiple texts on your phone. Why won’t you talk to them? They want all your contacts, especially political connections and the most prized connection of all!~~ MEDIA! Lord how they love the camera! Or to see their name in print.
PS: Yes we know we are going to be attacked for even daring to broach this subject.
Join us Wednesday with our guest Maryann Hastings who will share the story of the murder of her Mom, JoyceAnn Hastings, 87 years old who passed at the careless hands of hospice on December 18, 2018. JoyceAnn was not terminal or dying when she was signed up for hospice.
Maryann had worked as a social worker for years and been in the medical field and knew something was wrong but was still was powerless to save her Mom. Her story is so familiar to all of us who have lost a loved one in the hospice arena. There was no discharge plan, plan of action or vitals taken when JoyceAnn was released from the hospital with high blood pressure to return home. Of course a comfort kit was taken to the house because we all know everyone needs the same medicine regardless of their illness, age or circumstances! It is so wrong and such a heinous crime that is under the radar – until now where we are speaking up and out.
The intent of this show is to warn people of the dangers and the reality of hospice and their term “compassionate care” is a lie in most all cases. It is stealth euthanasia. Our elderly and disabled are being culled because it’s cheaper to euthanize that treat. Who will stand up for our people as they are thrown away like yesterday’s garbage leaving families devastated? No one! So this is why we have to warn others and stand strong together. Do not be a victim to their cruelty of writing your loved one’s last chapter of their life. They deserve to write their own chapter.
You have the right to question doctors decisions, refuse drugs, be a part of “the plan” and/or refuse hospice altogether. Never accept what you are being told without verifying.
If you have a story to share about a loved one taken before their time, contact me at marshajoiner2018@gmail.com . You will need verifiable data.
Luanne Flemming host of “Hidden Truth Revealed” will be co-hosting and will be joined by Phil Ross, attorney for Shelley Thomson. Shelley will also be calling in so that we can hear from her personally.
Shelley Thomson is in a New Braunfels, Texas nursing home (Colonial Manor). She does not belong there and is desperate to be liberated.
Under the guise of guardianship, Texas Health and Human Services Commission took her computer, all her money and assets – and (HHSC) used her disability as an excuse to abduct her, steal her house, her cat, and move her into an abusive nursing home. Her guardian has threatened her with violence. Shelley is held prisoner with no right to leave her room, no visitors, and no exercise.
Shelley Thomson was labeled as incapacitated falsely and maliciously by the state of Texas. State guardianship fraud is a national scandal. Under the guise of protection, states target victims for their money, and treat them worse than prisoners. Shelley’s guardian has threatened her with violence and she has been drugged against her will.
If Shelley cannot pick her own psychiatrist, the court will assign their own, and they will choose the cheapest expert to rubber stamp a denial of capacity once again.

Betrayed by hospice with Marsha Joiner – Wednesday, June 24, 2020
#34 Guest Ron Panzer founder of Hospice Patients Alliance
Typically we discuss hospice issues and the fact that our loved ones are being euthanized daily under the guise of compassionate hospice care. That is still occurring but now; our loved ones are being further taken advantage of with covid19 virus and the callousness of the medical profession!
Ron Panzer brought light to stealth euthanasia when he exposed the truth about what hospice was doing to people under the guise of compassionate care. It was far from compassionate and was premeditated murder with the use of opioids and antianxiety medications which caused terminal sedation until they died a horrible death from starvation and dehydration. He founded Hospice Patients Alliance whose mission is to promote end-of-life care that relieves suffering while allowing a natural death in its own timing and not hastening death.
He has stayed focused on this as well as recently the effects of COVID19 and all of the fictitious data we are hearing every day! Please join us to hear the truth about what is going on with data to support what he is saying and how our loved ones are still being targeted.
Thank you for joining us tonight for this very informative show.

Friends remembered Wilma Williams as fiercely independent, but a stroke left her in a wheelchair and reliant on hearing aides as large as headphones the day her attorney arrived with a plan to divvy up her $1.7 million estate.
The 93-year-old military widow with no children had nieces and nephews, but Bob Machen personally drafted a will that made himself her primary beneficiary and his son — a man she had never met — a possible heir as well.
Machen said the will represented the wishes of a woman who was like a sister to him and who he helped for years. He claims he watched as she affixed a scribbled signature to the document in a Fairfax County rehabilitation center on July 31, 2018.
Williams died 10 days later, and her relatives said they were stunned to eventually learn that Machen was poised to reap a $1.5 million windfall while they would receive modest bequests. They couldn’t believe the will truly represented Williams’s desires and decided to challenge it in court.
They say the case is a particularly brazen example of the financial exploitation of the elderly, a problem that is rapidly increasing as the senior population grows. The number of people aged 65 and older is projected to double between 2018 and 2060, according to government figures. Various estimates put their losses from fraud between $2.9 billion and a staggering $36.5 billion each year.

Justice for Margaret Cook
Margaret Cook is an elderly, disabled Massachusetts woman whose property, civil liberties, life savings, and right to the pursuit of happiness as an American citizen have all been taken away.
She is currently held against her will at Medway Manor nursing home, in Massachusetts, despite an independent psych exam which stated that she was competent enough to live at home, with in-home care, as she has desperately asked. She has been stopped from going to her home, even for a Christmas, Thanksgiving or birthday visit, for a year and a half.
See her video statement if you have access to: vimeo.com/395830770
Imagine if you were removed from your home, told you could never return, and held against your will while your property, and every penny from your bank accounts is taken away.
Imagine that your bills and your taxes are up to date. Imagine that you have had no criminal record in your entire life.
Something like this could only happen in some far away country, a place without respect for human rights and freedoms, right?
You would be wrong. There is a woman named Margaret Cook who would like you to know that this tragedy could happen to anyone. She is in the state of Massachusetts, in the United States. More
We have two guests this evening. Our friends in Australia return to follow up on past broadcasts and the events that have resulted from speaking out.
Mr. D, who reported on the abuses at a nursing home supposedly established to serve those of the Jewish faith, is facing charges for revealing publicly what is transpiring in these gulags for the aged. Mr. D is facing charges for making supposed “anti-semetic remarks” to a man who is Catholic. Mr. D is himself, Jewish. This has all the markings of a concocted excuse to target, intimidate and threaten him. This is so ludicrous that I cannot believe it is actually taking place, but it is.

Mia returns to talk about dementia, What are the signs? What can you do? Are dementia-like symptoms the result of psychotropic drugging meant to cause the victim to appear to be suffering from dementia, when actually they are not? We know these deadly drugs are widely used here in the US as chemical restraints, and produce dementia like symptoms. Apparently, Australia has followed suit.
In Minnesota, clearly “protective services” is actually for profit “human trafficking services” for ALL VULNERABLE ADULTS AND CHILDREN! THIS MUST STOP!

“The scapegoating of the elderly amounts to a form of gerontophobia, which dehumanises the old. Unfortunately, this unflattering representation of the elderly has become normalised to the point that many old people feel culturally isolated and constantly devalued. In my own research of the process of ageing I was struck by the profound sense of alienation and estrangement that many of my elderly respondents communicated to me. In particular they expressed a deep sense of cultural distance from the young.”
In their wisdom, 30 experts – from prestigious universities like Harvard, MIT, Stanford, Cambridge Imperial and UCL – have decided that ageing is no longer a normal feature of life. They want the World Health Organization to classify ageing as a disease. This diseasing of old age represents another blow to the moral status of the elderly.
The experts claim that the transformation of ageing from being a natural part of the cycle of life into a protracted phase of illness will ensure that the medical treatment that the elderly receive will improve. No doubt these medics actually believe that they have the best interest of the elderly at heart. But by rebranding the process of ageing as a form of illness these experts unwittingly contribute to the weakening of the moral status of the old and contribute to the ongoing erosion of the authority of adulthood.
Being old is already considered to be an unattractive and undesirable stage of life. The call to diagnose ageing as a form of illness will merely enhance its negative image.
A $22 million civil RICO case from Cleveland, Ohio has survived another procedural hurdle and appears headed to trial in Cuyahoga county court.
RICO stands for Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organization. It was passed by congress and signed into law by President Nixon 50 years ago, in 1970. Originally designed to combat organized crime, the laws’ application has expanded to include any group profiting from an illegal activity.
Macomb County Probate Judge Sandra Harrison ordered the release of Fred Smith, who lives in Bruce Township, but with a stern warning that if he doesn’t account for the missing funds, he will find himself back behind bars.
A Utica man has been confined to the Macomb County Jail for over three weeks and will spend at least two more weeks there for failing to account for millions of dollars spent from his mother’s trust fund that he controlled.
Two former clients of disbarred Hendersonville attorney Andy Allman may finally get their day in civil court after a special judge recently denied a motion to dismiss the cases.
Linda Cela of Clarksville and Erbit Navarro-Teran of Lebanon both filed complaints in Sumner County General Sessions Court against Allman nearly three years ago.
Investigators say Traci Hudson stole more than $500,000 from a man she had guardianship over.
For the latter part of his life, Maurice Myers lived on his own in a small home south of Sarasota.
Then, in March 2017, when he was 92, Myers was hospitalized twice with numerous health complications. He was released to a rehabilitation facility, then moved to a senior care home in Pinellas Park. There, he’d be closer to his daughter, who oversaw his affairs.
The case highlights the unexpected downsides of court-appointed adult guardianships, which are designed to help the old and the infirm manage their lives but are under fire nationwide amid allegations of neglect, abuse and financial exploitation. Those problems haven’t escaped the watchful eye of Congress, as evidenced by the recent introduction of HR 4174 to enact protections against elder abuse and neglect under guardianship.
When families seek judicial intervention, they have no clue of the web of judicial abuse, deception and theft of the family’s assets that will soon ensnare them.
One typical scenario, which compels a family to seek judicial help, is an elderly family member is being held hostage while his/her assets are drained. The family does not foresee that the abuse of the hostage taker is about to be replaced by the abuse by the probate court. The various mechanisms employed by the court are limited only by the ingenuity of the judges, but certain patterns are often seen.
As explained previously Financial Rape: Business as Usual in LA County Probate Court, Judge Lippitt forces the elder person to mediation where the person is subjected to fraud, coercion and exhaustion. All the elder has to do to gain her freedom from the seemingly endless mediation is sign whatever documents the coven of evil shoves in front of her.
As Judge Paul Suzuki explained, all that matters is that she signed the settlement agreement. The Mozer v Augustine supports Judge Suzuki. It does not matter if the elder is comatose during the mediation, all that counts is that somehow the elder’s signature appears. How it got there is irrelevant and no amount of fraud, threats, lies, etc. may ever be introduced into court to show that the elder was financially raped. (Mozer cites: Evid. Code, § 1119 (a)-(c) mediation communications are confidential. “Sign this or never see you son again” – not admissible under Mozer)
As legislation is being passed and proposed in several states, allowing those deemed to be mentally ill or suffering from dementia to be starved to death, we see Australia following suit and targeting their elderly also. Simply arranging for a diagnosis of dementia regardless if it is a legitimate diagnosis, can facilitate the kidnapping, isolation and theft of estates. Now with this handy option available to starve them to death as the estate is being plundered by professional predators, this global harvesting of the elderly for profit is in high gear.
Lawyers along with doctors and government agencies are gaming the system, and are allowed to take over elderly individuals lives and affairs. Protected by probate tribunals and government, massive profits are gained by preying on a vulnerable sector of the population. If in fact, these individuals are compromised, wouldn’t the moral thing to do be to secure their rights and protections? Instead, the governments and their predatory tribunals treat them as if they were nothing and violate even their most basic rights.
For the third year, Del. Mark Levine, D-Alexandria, proposed a bill intended to strengthen family members’ and loved ones’ rights to visit adults who are under legal guardianship. After spending a year working with numerous stakeholder groups to refine the bill into something everyone agreed upon, he was surprised when a lawyer from the Virginia Bar Association stood in opposition during the bill’s subcommittee hearing.
Levine’s first attempt at the bill was inspired by a constituent, Mike Jacobs, who came to Levine with a story about how he had been unfairly banned from seeing his longtime partner, Jane Lopez, who had Alzheimer’s disease, by an attorney serving as Lopez’s legal guardian, Levine said.
Shannon Laymon-Pecoraro, an elder attorney representing the Wills, Estates and Trusts Section of the state bar, objected to several parts of the bill. Among them is a provision that would place greater emphasis on the guardian ad litem determining whether any conflicts of interest exist among the parties in the guardianship case. A guardian ad litem is an attorney appointed by the court to investigate a guardianship case and represent the allegedly incapacitated person’s best interests.
