Hacked computer. Nearly cost us thousands of dollars.

Received a pop-up notice allegedly from Apple (Apple does NOT send these) stating that my computer was hacked. The notice told me to call a rep. The rep gave his full name and false Apple ID number. (Real Apple reps don't do that). He suggested my bank account may have also been hacked. He asked me to give the toll-free bank member service number, which I did. (Golden 1 Credit Union). He said he would transfer me to a customer service rep at the bank. The person who answered was NOT a customer service rep. He told me my checking account had been hacked for more than $15,000. He said the only way to stop it was to withdraw $15,000 from my account and await further instructions. Fortunately, by that time, I got suspicious. So I visited my branch and talked to the manager. He agreed that this was a scam. I gave the names of the fraudulent agents and their phone numbers to the FTC.

GUARDIANSHIP ABUSE:
I am a 69 year old woman who looks and acts very much younger. If unlawful discrimination is abuse, then i am abused. My son is a victim of unlawful discrimination as found in a court of law. Unlawful discrimination against him is unlawful discrimination against me as ine who is associated with him.
I just started the petition: To eradicate Guardianship, a restrictive means of care that violates the U.S. Constitution, the International Human Rights Laws and the integration mandate of Title II of the "ADA". I wanted to see if you could help by adding your name.

My goal is to reach loads of signatures and I need more support. Guardianship is a CRUEL, EVIL process that in Julian Coatley and his mothers experience with it, Guardianship is NOT PROTECTION but is instead EXPLOITATION. You can read more and sign the petition here: You will also be able to listen to the podcast of a critical case of inhumanity, the "Julian Coatley Story, which can also be Googled and read online. Thanks so very much.

"Carolinians on Channel 17 news, calls Guardianship a "SICK, TWISTED, process"
I agree

The kink above in the communication tells it all. Please open the link which will also allow you to kisten in podcast to the "Julian Coatley Story".

They know to know that it is a critical act of inhumanity that seriously needs the communities to intervene in peaceful protests nationwide to lead to eradication of abuse as inn Guardianship against the elderly. There are so many organizations that claim to uphold the Civil and Human Rights of the elderly, yet they do not seem to go the extra mile in fighting for the eradication of Guardianship abuse towards them.

YesYesYes

I am truly giving all that I have mentality, physically and spiritually as I fight tirelessly against abuse towards the elderly. Guardianship abuse stories are everywhere. Carolinians on Channel 17 News here in Raleigh, NC call Guardianship a TWISTED, SICK process. The many stories of Guardianship abuse with Guardianship being a restrictive means of care in violation of the U.S. Constitution is a problem nationwide. To my knowledge and understanding, Guardianship also violates the International Human Rights Laws and rhe integration mandate of Title II of the "ADA". Again, I dedicate all of me in the fight for protection of the elderly. Please share this story as you see fit as I expose and raise awareness.

My situation concerns my 87 yr old mother who has a guardian under what I consider fraudulent circumstances. Her guardian (nephew) has abused his power and authority. Has a civic suit against me alleging all sorts of things. He was ultimately granted a preliminary injunction against me without the benefit of being heard that basically denies my mother and I access to one another. This case has been ongoing since March 28th.2022. My mother was taken from our home on May 18th 23 allegedly for her safety/ protection from me, but ultimately returned on August 31th. 23.
Present circumstances, she was taken by EMS to the emergency room on 10-10-23 and I've been banned from seeing or speaking to her, without anything warranting sure actions by the guardian.
I've made reports after reports to no avail.
My mother was diagnosed with dementia 6-30-22 and the torture/ torment she has suffered at the hands of her guardian, her son and a woman she legally placed up for adoption 66 yrs. Ago
This has been absolutely the most horrifying experience for first and foremost, my mom and myself.
I have compelling/ Conclusive evidence to support my statements.
There has been no interest in the well being/ best interest of my mother. Their only concern has been property that was gifted to me by my mother and the plaintiff, her son and the legally adopted woman have been after.
So much more to this horrific story.

To Whom It May Concern,

My name is Robert L. McDonald, and I’m writing to ask for your support in a matter that has devastated my family and compromised the dignity of my late grandmother, Yvonne J. McDonald.

Yvonne was the matriarch of our family—a woman who worked hard, raised generations, and placed her trust in a legal structure meant to protect her legacy. In her later years, following a stroke and a steady decline in cognitive and physical health, she became increasingly vulnerable. Medical records from Mercy Clinic Branson West document memory impairment, delayed speech, and emotional instability in the months leading up to December 2, 2019—the day she was taken to an attorney’s office and signed a warranty deed transferring her home out of the family trust and into the sole name of my aunt, Dorothy.

Yvonne signed as both trustee and grantor, but she did so while suffering from documented cognitive decline and without independent legal counsel. The transfer contradicted her long-standing estate plan, which named me as successor beneficiary. It also left my wife, our six children, and me homeless—displaced from the home I had spent years repairing and protecting.

I’ve been fighting to restore my grandmother’s intent and reclaim the property that was meant to shelter her descendants. I’ve gathered medical records, trust documents, and evidence of undue influence. My aunt destroyed the original wills and trust upon my grandfather's death instead of having a will reading. But as a pro se litigant navigating this crisis without financial resources, I’m asking for help—from those who believe that elder dignity and family justice are worth defending.

If your coalition offers advocacy, expert referrals, or public support for cases involving elder exploitation, I would be deeply grateful for any guidance or partnership. Yvonne’s voice was silenced by illness and manipulation. I’m doing everything I can to make sure her wishes are heard.

Thank you for your time, and for the work you do to protect our elders and their families.

With respect,
Robert L. McDonald (Robby)

Subject: VonUlrich

1514 Burke Road Baltimore Maryland 21220 – Freeze Accounts of Andrew von Ulrich – Elder Financial Exploitation investigation

History and facts – last 10 years

After my mother died – and prior to her death – for 45 years of marriage – I was essentially the only child living near them or actively in their day-to-day life. I participated in their day-to-day life (especially in navigating any legal or financial or transaction type events) – including all of their estate and financial planning. It became clear – that after years of marriage, separating assets into two buckets – his and hers from prior to marriage made no sense and they comingled all assets. Ninety percent of all assets came from my mother and her family (She had several houses – and money from her parents and an aunt). However, having been married for years and aging togethers as well as the legal documents and process required to prepared and maintain separate assets but to also provide for lifetime care for each other was no longer important. What was priority and important was care for life for both and sharing any remaining equally among 4 children – without exception even if the relationship was stressed or even estranged. I being a CPA (as was my mother), I participated in on all estate discussions and Wills and titling of assets. It was a focus and not a neglect of Regina von Ulrich or Andrew von Ulrich. They understood the importance of making sure their wishes were reflected in any documents. All Wills and all accounts were set up – and I participated in the strategy – to pass any remaining assets by way of beneficiary designation – and that remaining dollars were to be divided (I have copies) into 25% percent to each child. Much discussion happened around Christine in the early years as she was estranged from Andy and my mother. However, that became a topic that was decided about 15 or 20 years ago – the decision was --- all would be included. However, primary was care for life for both – and preservation of monies. All the trust and all the legal efforts to keep my mother’s money separate was stopped – although there are many Wills which had those conditions included. Andy and my mother committed to each other in front of me – and the attorneys (at that time) that they would never violate the joint wishes as a sole survivor. Melanie and I were always the two designated to insure this.

After my mother died and Andy was living alone – I visited regularly and had dinner – and watched (or pretended to watch and enjoy) his old movies. There were a few things that were important to him (he was a simple man of needs) – however, he knew that he needed to move to be supervised and monitored - for reasons related to age but also to a health diagnosis (to be highlighted below). I was – other than my mother – the only person who knew his health issue and prognosis (and also the cause of his death – however he was age 94 and had lived longer than the average from his cancer and the prognosis from the medical professionals).
We discussed Erickson Retirement Communities as an option – as I was a founding member of the Board of Directors for 21 years during the start-up and growth phase (built into a National Company) and we established the CCRC national community model of care and financing for seniors and a model designed for aging in place - (Continuing Care Retirement Community). I also Chaired the board of directors. However, he didn’t want to live in an old age home as he called it (BTW our communities are not old age homes and are very healthy active communities 😊). I also know things like - he had a face lift in his 60’s – again only my mother and I knew of this. He was a proud person and he wanted to live in the in-law cottage I had built for aging-in-place – which was only10 steps to my front door but independent living with safeguards and 24/7 monitoring.

Christine von Ulrich’s framing of the last 4 to 5 years as motivated by her goals – did not reflect the last 45 years or even the last 7 years. She doesn’t know the history and was not involved. She only started limited visits during the last 5 years. Although they had some prior contact over phone and internet – and an few visits by Andy to their houses to spend time – a few holidays. After a few visits – Christine talked to Andy about buying a house with (for) her and Andy to live – in Richmond VA. That was 4 or 5 years ago. Andy visited her – and came home upset – that Christine wanted him to move into a house they would purchase and she would take care of him. He wanted nothing to do with the idea – and said he wanted to stay in the in-law cottage. He was not happy at her persistence.

The Cottage is on a waterfront property with waterfront views – designed and built based on Erickson Retirement Community standards – note my son and I are both certified aging in place specialist. The Cottage was built for my mother in-law – and was designed as an aging in place cottage with a full bath and laundry and bedroom and kitchen – with all the safety features including an intercom system linked to my house. The front door is 10 steps from my front door and could be monitored 24/7. That is how I was able to find withing the day - Andy when he died. It has an emergency generator – internet – and all the features of senior living cottage – all on one level (no steps or obstacles). It has a separate HVAC system and a back-up generator for power. This was built special for aging in place seniors – and family. It is not a rental.

Andy was living in a mobile home park – double wide with my mother when she died. It was 30 minutes from my home and I was the only relative nearby. It cost him $600 a month to rent the pad (land space only) plus utilities and maintenance – he was spending more than $1,000 a month.
I was called regularly by park management if something happened. The park management called often – as Andy was often reported by neighbors for exposure or peeping Tom concerns. I would talk to Andy and he indicated he was outside peeing in the bushes. I of course told him he could not do this. Melanie living in Florida was called as well (She and I had always been the people to notify) – but all she could do was call me. Christine was not involved in his life at the time. When my mother-in-law died – Andy asked if he could move into the cottage – indicating he needed a place as he was getting older – it was also helpful to me – since we could monitor 24/7. I helped and my family helped – with selling the mobile home – and moving him. He liked the furniture my mother-in-law had – and he said he wanted the bed, living room furniture and kitchen table/chairs – including the recliner my mother-in-law had (ironically mentioned by Christine as Andy’s – of course she had no idea since she was not involved – it is soiled and trash at this point). Andy was also monitored by our neighbors – we are a waterfront community on a peninsula and at the very end of the peninsula. If he fell walking – neighbors would bring him home. They all knew him.

Christine didn’t know any of the history and definitely doesn’t know that the Cottage was built as am aging-in-place Cottage for our family (however it has a sign – and painting of a lighthouse – with the word’s – Granny’s Cottage 😊). Comments about rushing to get things removed so I can rent the apartment demonstrates her behavior of quickly removing all valuables and paperwork that contained anything that suggested she exploited Andy or any evidence of her actions. I told her no rush. We documented all phones calls – have all text and emails – and they are enlightening (especially during the first 2 weeks after he died). Melanie had no idea at that point of the changes made. And could not understand Christine’s insistence on need to quickly remove anything he had in his apartment. Of course, given the fiduciary responsibilities we all have to the estate – including Christine – simple elements such as an inventory of all assets in the apartment – jewelry, rare coin collects, silver and others – never happened. In one day – Christine came in an removed all valuables and the laptop with all his information and bank accounts – and did not remove anything that was trash. It should be noted, we have documentation of all calls – especially the 2 weeks immediately after his death – her many text asking to visit immediately to clean out his apartment – again we said no, there was no rush and we had time – plus we were going to sport events with out grandchildren. Her insistence and many texts suggest she wanted to get something out of the apartment quickly. Very odd – even Melanie said that there was no rush (until 2 weeks later when Christine told her that everything was now in only their names – changed during the last 3 years) Melanie then went “radio silent”.

Health Information and Cause of Death – known only to his doctor and myself – and the coroner.

Andy was in final stages of Malignant Neoplasm of Prostrate. Diagnosed about 15 years ago – but he is now at age 94 – and during the last 5 years – it was obvious he was slowing down significantly and impaired – all of his senses were significantly declining. Andy had a hard time hearing, his eyesight had deteriorated (he could not read without telescope lenses – and then only very slowly), he slept much of the day – and he was very slow understanding or knowing what he was being told. He spent a lot of money (which we paid on our account) playing with the TV and purchasing streaming services or movies or whatever – and even though he could not see TV well. He had an added speaker – that was so loud that we could hear from our house 😊. His walk was a shuffle and only very short shuffle steps. He cognitive understanding was slow – but he also never wanted anyone to know. When telling him something he often just said “yes” or “ok” – and I never knew if he really understood what I said.
I knew he had terminal cancer – he knew he had terminal cancer – and we all knew that when age 80 – maybe this slow cancer (not treated for age and protocol reasons 15 years ago) would give him 5 to 7 years – but he wanted to be somewhere – like this Cottage where we would monitor him 24/7. His wallet had 2 phone numbers for emergency contact – My wife and my phone number (no others). The night we found him – the police was at our home for 6 hours – and we needed his files and wallet – and the police had full access to everything as well. The last 5 to 7 years – Andy knew he was deteriorating – and the visits 3 or 4 times a year by Christine for a day would not provide her information into Andy (other than he was fragile and very slow) – but he condition and her not engaging much as he was maintaining his daily routine while she did whatever she did - allowed her to purchase a new laptop and work the entire day while Andy slept mostly or watched TV (most listened) while she sat on patio – going thru his files – and changing the banking verification numbers to her phone – or including her number as well. She had full access to all his passwords and accounts – and honestly, we all trusted her intentions – even though she was not a very social person with anyone while visiting – we knew that was just her.

The death certificate – which I have. I was managing his affairs and called the police and worked with the coroner. The police contacted his primary physician based on the records we provided that night. This was not important and Christine would not really know - she didn’t live with him nor did she have information or history. She did not know what caused his death and would never have guessed it was the cancer. She continued to ask during the 2 weeks we talked – do I know what caused his death. Without the coroner and his primary care physician – I didn’t discuss his medical history or condition with her.

Andy had all the signs of end of life and was in final stages of his malignant cancer and cause of death. In addition to not recognizing people (unless he saw them regularly and even then, it took him time to study to person), he was fatigued, maintained a routine and he had cognitive impairment. Cognitive impairment is a key factor in why older adults are targeted and why perpetrators succeed in victimizing them (most often relatives are the perpetrators – a very classic and documented statistic) . Even mild cognitive impairment (MCI) can significantly impact the capacity of older people to manage their finances and to judge whether something is a scam or a fraud. Mild cognitive impairment is an intermediate stage between the expected cognitive decline of normal aging and the more serious decline of dementia.13 Studies indicate that 22 percent of Americans over age 70 have MCI and about one third of Americans age 85 and over have Alzheimer’s disease. At age 90 to 94 – and being in the absolute final stages of cancer – Andy was a prime and easy target. However, I and Melanie knew the 45-year plan and goals of my mother and Andy (However, Melanie is now compromised – during the first 2 weeks after Andy’s death Melanie was clear on the wishes and plan as outlined for 45 years).

Will and Beneficiaries

As indicated earlier – every estate decision ever made was done with intent – and a significant amount of money was spent on legal fees – mostly to avoid this exact situation – but also to save on taxes. Their estate is not of a size that really needed much planning – however both my mother and Andy wanted to avoid conflict – how ironic this is just what they wanted to avoid. Christine during the first 2 weeks after Andy’s death said a few things that indicated she was struggling with the process and how to even tell Melanie and I of what has been changed during the last 3 years – and to somehow express it as she had no idea until now. Ironically, when she discussed it with the attorney helping with probate – she had information about the last 3 years? 🙂 I was the one that said she better get expert help with probate given the situation – and she called the local firm who helped make the changes to the Will 3 years ago – a Will of no value since all of the estate has been changed to reflect different beneficiaries – and to enrich Christine. I also recommended that his pension might have a life insurance element – and she called. From a fiduciary point of view – we want all assets accounted for. I actually think Christine and Melanie would benefit from a collective mutually friendly settlement of the estate – as we were doing for the first 2 weeks after Andy’s Death – prior to learning what Christine has been doing. However, the Will is not as important – and not material – since all assets have been removed from the estate (except maybe one bank account). It should be noted this strategy to designate as beneficiaries the heirs (all 4 children – 25% each) was planned long before Christine arrived back in Andy’s life – and was done with Andy and my mother and myself. What was changed during the last 3 years – as a fragile – late-stage cancer and 94-year-old man slept – were the beneficiaries. This now requires active forensic investigation by the Federal and State agencies – the banking regulators – the financial institutions – and honestly the involvement of national advocacy groups who are focused on a National Crisis as our population ages.

The executor has a fiduciary duty to an estate, and to its beneficiaries, when settling an estate plan. A fiduciary is someone in a position of trust and power, and the law recognizes this and so places an added burden on that person or institution to act with honesty, integrity, good faith, fairness and loyalty.
The fiduciary accepts legal responsibility for duties of care, loyalty, good faith, confidentiality, and more when serving the best interests of a beneficiary. Strict care must be taken to ensure that no conflict of interest arises to jeopardize those interests.
When administering an estate, an executor must give notice to creditors and pay the debts of the estate. The executor must also gather all assets together, prepare and file tax returns, distribute assets and close the estate. At all times, the executor must account for all assets of the estate.
Hiding and mismanaging assets, and a host of other deceptive, unfair, or negligent actions by an executor can result in litigation and could be illegal. These are crimes that federal and state regulations and various laws are designed to protest the estate and all potential beneficiaries.

We already know – fact – that assets have been removed from the estate and Andy’s legal residence – without inventory and without a valuation. Are they material in value? However, without following the process required legally in settling an estate – we don’t know for sure. I have inventory of coins – not sure it is a complete list of all the coins. However, the efforts to change beneficiaries during the last 3 years that removed two of the beneficiaries and increase the amount to 50% for both Christine and Melanie does have all the signs of Elderly Financial Abuse of:

1. A 94-year-old man in final stages of a Malignant cancer – frail and fragile – with signs of cognitive decline – significant hearing loss – and significant eyesight issues. During a 3-year period changed $500,000 in bank accounts to have Christine and Melanie be beneficiaries of entire amount – reversing 45 years of history and known intention of the deceased. There are prior estate legal documents with Register of Wills that help document – and even Melanie said she had a copy 3 weeks ago. Note: Christine told Melanie – on the phone with me – not to e-mail me what she had – email was not safe. 😊

There are list and examples of crimes published by Federal and State agencies – and this is a National Crisis.
• providing true but misleading information that influences the elder person's use or assignment of assets (Dessin, 2000);
• persuading an impaired elder person to change a will or bank accounts or insurance policy to alter who benefits from the will or policy (Central California Legal Services, 2001; Frolik, 2001; Smith, 1999);
Current Situation
During the last few weeks, Christine and Melanie have stopped all communication. Your office was investigating and just sent an email/letter. We all have a fiduciary responsibility – and as such – we have initiated and reported this situation to a number of Federal, State and Financial Authorities. One financial institution has already reached out several times. The United States Postal Service has opened a case – on Mail Fraud to investigate. They have requested that we keep all the records we have for use in their investigation. A report has been filed with the FBI – and we are waiting for triage -which might result in them referring to another Law Enforcement Agency, and The Maryland Department of Aging/Adult Protective Services also has been notified.
The urgency of removing the balance of contents is silly as they are of no value – Christine has already removed all valuables – and especially the computer laptop. I cannot release the files – but copies can be made. It is in the best interest of all concerned to be 100 transparent and to work together. We can mitigate cost of settling estate (even if we never talk again – we will be honoring the wishes of our parents and grandparents). My moral compass and North Star are to do the right thing for everyone – especially the fragile such as elderly and disabled. My goal is definitely not financial and 100% of my portion will go to legal cost or charity. For the Record: The reference to me being a millionaire and calling me a millionaire made me smile. I have only been called that once in my entire life – and that was by Christine via Melanie. Andy would never have said that or referred that – or make reference to a name “label” such as you are a millionaire. Insulting comment to me --- yes – but it does not reflect my values or my focus or who I am. That comment was from someone who does not know me – and was not said as a compliment. And if anything – Andy always bragged about my career at Kennedy Krieger Institute and my involvement at Erickson Retirement Communities. And the comment about Cristy – my deceased brother’s daughter – not being involved – that too was not Andy’s words. I would ask him about Christy – and he would say – I know Melanie talks to her and visits her – they are friends. And it was never a negative comment from Andy. Again, that was not Andy. Your investigation must have been an interview with Christine as I can hear her words in those quotes.
Proposal and next step
1. I have also been reviewing everything with two separate attorneys – and have considered engaging them – on a contingency basis.
2. The financial institutions need to continue their work – as this is serious for financial institutions – and much has been written and recent laws requiring them to take a more active role in stopping Elderly Financial Exploitation
3. The regulatory process – we have notified a few – and have a list of several others we are told to notify.
4. Advocacy groups – national – we have a list to include and have talked in the phone to 2 of them.
5. The Attorney General’s Office and state legislators – many of whom I know – need to understand how serious this national crisis has become – and if this case can be an example or help them understand the issue so as to involve the legislature – than that would be a win for me and the elderly. I am in a phase of life that impacting public policy and helping the most fragile is important to me and my last phase of career.
I know that these issues are important (I know the Elderly are fragile and at risk of abuse in so many ways. My entire life was focused on the Elderly and Disabled and most fragile of society. I know that those with disabilities and the elderly need advocates and people to look for ways to protect them from exploitation. Ironically – I never thought I would see it in my back yard. Fortunately, I personally have been blessed in life with many things – people and relationships are the most important. Blessings are not money or things – and doing the right thing ‘Always” should be our North Star.
I would hope that Christine and now Melanie would think about this – remember their duty as fiduciaries – and their legacy as well. I hope they find their North Star – and we are prepared to work with them – talk to them – and settle the estate – doing the right thing.

The Federal and State laws and regulations combined with Banking regulation and procedures - actually help those committing Elder Financial Abuse - since most are relatives - and can gain access to accounts and passwords - online changes to accounts and beneficiaries are easy. Even if the Elderly person cannot hear well or see well - and if something is required to be signed - trust of a 94 year old is easy as well. Paperless Banking also helps cover up - since no mail is received to open and see changes.

Don't trust - and always have 2 people involved - and financial institutions should not change bank accounts without notice to prior beneficiaries if the current owner is over a certain age. 94 years old is too old - statistically this person have cognitive issues.

Better oversight and regulatory control and an investigation unit that is combined efforts of State, Federal and Banking regulation. A single point that those can get help and a coordinated federal investigation - forensic in nature. Today computer trails are evidence and banks have those files and history.

YesYesYes

We are currently in process of getting the interest of Federal and State and Banking. The amount taken is $500,000 and Andrew von Ulrich is not famous - so finding help is not easy. Ideas on who to call - all financial institutions have been notified and we hope assets frozen until an investigation is complete. Jim Anders

Once an adult; twice a child.
My name is Jeanine Thomas Castle, and I have 3 separate stories in 3 separate counties in California.
1st story - Compton, Los Angeles County approximately over a 10-year period (1990's - early 2000) My Uncle, John Thomas "Papa" a widower. No children. He owned his home outright and his small pension and social security supported his simple lifestyle. Then others began to remove items from his home. When he died. Someone else owned his home. Another person told the funeral home she was his daughter. The death certificated stated this. I was named in his Will and couldn't do anything being informed after his death. I was informed of his funeral. He died by a fall in a hole at a neighbor's home. Despite several broken bones, no food in his home and his house being refinanced multiple times Adult Protective Services couldn't and didn't protect him.

2nd Story - Fresno, Fresno County 2020 - 2023. My childhood neighbor, Filiberto 'Gilbert' Olivarez began being neglected - isolation, pandemic, no longer driving in his 90's. I documented little to no food in the home. No AC in the Fresno area triple degree summer. The District's Attorney's office did agree to an investigation. By that time, he had dementia and was residing in a residential care home. Despite having given Power of Attorney to one daughter for years another was able to convince him to sign one giving her full authority over his finances and sell his home far below market value to cousins of her children's father. The investigator NEVER spoke with Filiberto's brother who lived next door or other blood relatives.

3rd Story - Richmond, Contra Costa County 2024. My 97-year-old Aunt Margaret Horsley had been living in her home for 70 years. Her 63-year-old, alcoholic son resided with her. She is a strong woman of faith had hoped he would stop the drinking and smoking. At one point in the last 10 years, she was awarded a restraining order because he hit her. She agreed to allow him to stay for a few days after the order expired and those days turned into years. Frustrated she reached out to myself and a nephew. Contra Costa APS came out met with both and weren't able to do anything. There was no working landline phone. No hot water. They heated food on an inverted heater. The front door had a damaged frame that didn't allow the door to open and close easily or lock. On 8/30/24 there was a fire and fortunately no deaths, but the home has been declared "unoccupiable" by the fire department and boarded up.

Sometimes our elderly MUST have someone just like a child does to say, NO MORE. WE are removing you for your safety and best interests - Once an adult and twice a child. I believe every person in these three stories would have been relieved to have someone, anyone but themselves step in for them. THERE was/is an element of fear in all of these stories.

I'm retired. Aside from being one of three caregivers to my 93-year-old Mom. I want to do my part to make a difference in the lives of others.

I want them to KNOW that Adult Protective Services IS able to make a difference. That something will be done just like a child has protection.

Change in the power of APS and legislation to protect the elderly.

YesYesYes

As a social worker, counselor and caregiver I know how important it is to advocate for others when they are struggling. I also know how hard and challenging it can be to on the other side of the situation and not have power to do something.

My mom was 88yrs old, very able and capable, either no life threatening medical problems.

There is no way that the extreme disturbing events of this can be exagersted. There are no words strong, powerful, deep enough to convey the depths of sick, evil, depravity that took place at times that would make the devil himself envious. And the more time goes by, the more i am recigizing the depth of impact it has all done to me that only grows worse, not better. There is one thing unquestionably, indisputably clear and certain.My beautiful most sweet, kind, gentle, loving, wonderful mom walked into Penn Medicine's West Chester Pa facility, Chester County Hospital, just about 3-months ago with nothing anywhere near life threatening, and suffered such gross neglect, malpractice, and even emotional abuse, that just about 3-months later, the last month of which she spent in excruciating extreme agony, pain and suffering, she is now dead at their hands. My beautiful, gentle & kind, most loving, caring, wonderful, greatest mom in the whole world, came home from the initially surgery seemingly fine, before beginng to complain of feeling weak and have some pain. Then when the home nurse noticed her incision was infected, and felt so strongly that this needed prompt attention that she took a picture and sent it to the Chester County surgeon urging him to address the infected incision, but he just absolutely refused and said he'd see her in a week at her next scheduled appointment. I called his office begging and pleading, but he just refused to see her. I called her family doctor, and Urgent Care, but they both told me only the surgeon can address that. Unfortunately my mom didn't make it to that appointment before collapsing on the ground in extreme pain, infection throughout her whole body. All I could do was wrap a robe around her, and call an ambulance which took her right back to Chester County where the same surgeon then admitted that yes we were right, it's infected, at this point so badly, and deeply, that he had to do another operation to cut out the infection, leaving a big hole in my mom's inner leg, and give her antibiotics and a wound vac, but he botched it again, as we later found out, when the rehab that they discharged my mom way too early into against my wishes, after a few days sent her right back by ambulance again, which is when we had her transfered to Upenn Philly, where an expert surgeon seemed upset himself that the Chester County surgeon had not immediately removed the apparent source of the infection, the artificial vein graft put in by the Chester County surgeon. Although that Upenn surgeon did remove that infected graft, and debride the incision again, by this time my mom was developing C-diff from all the antibiotics, and not being on any kind of a proper anti-bedsore mattress, nor ever once being turned or adjusted as I later found out too late they should've been doing every 2-hours, my mom, who went into Upenn Philly never having ever had a bedsore in her life, developed a bedsore that was allowed to grow into a massive, hideous, stage 4, excruciatingly painful, life threatening bedsore, which they would never mention, or change the dressing on in front of me, until I finally said hey whats behind this big bandage on my mom's back, and discovered it, and when I went to take a picture so I could compare it to later to be sure it's healing,, as I had done all along everytime they changed the dressing on her infected incision with no problem, they bizarrley freaked out, got security to escort me out of the hospital, not only robbing my poor sick mom of her constant support having been by her side helping and encouraging her all day every day for months now since this all started, but upset her so much I later found out she was throwing up all that night, and eventually confronted me outside with a whole pack of goons threatening and intimidating me off of the property, threatening to have me arrested if I even call to check on my mom's condition. I just could not believe that especially a hospital could be capable of such complete depravity, more like something from a fictional horror film than how you would think anybody with any degree of human qualities, compassion and and a conscience at all would be capable to behave, even if they were being paid, and from there it kept getting so much more and more profoundly sick and just so downright evil it was just truly very scarey. Even when I called Philadelphia Elder Care they called me right back saying the hospital says your mom is not in there, and I discovered they had actually removed my mom from thier computer system so that when anyone called the switchboard would say, we cannot put you through, there's no one here by that name. My poor sick mom inside alone and scared and me outside worried to death what is going on, how could this be happening. It was sheer horror, and in the end, they killed her. From there she went to a rehab in Exton, having walked into a West Chester facility just about a couple months prior with very non-life threatening health issues, expecting to have my mom around for many more good years, as her whole family commonly lives to 100+ years old, was lying there in a rehab bed, with a feeding tube in her stomach, a wound vac on her leg, screaming in constant severe agony from the giant 4 inch wide, down to the muscle bedsore hole in her back, looking like she belonged more in an intensuve care unit, for a couple days before being ambulanced again back to Chester County Hospital when her vital signs declined overnight, where I watched my poor mom, my most beautiful, kind, loving, most wonderful, sweet, gentle, person you could ever meet, greatest mom ever in the whole world, die and pass away. Gone forever, way too soon, in a torturous excruciating end of the greatest mom that God ever made, my mom, my world, and I can't even imagine how I'm going to even go on myself without her. No words could ever even begin to approach the sickening, disturbing imposible horror of this overall experience that I wouldn't even think would go on in some backwoods underdeveloped lawless place, let alone right here in Pennsylvania, USA.I would be compelled and obligated to every other future mother and son, to work with you, show you what pictures I did get, and cooperate fully to try to bring to light, and hopefully avoid anyone else ever again from having to go through this what killed my sweet wonderful mom, ruined my world, and if it doesn't kill me as it feels like it will, certainly will at least leave me very deeply and permanently scarred, and missing my mom. Sincerely,
Robert Snodgrass 484-252-9596

I wish I could tell my whole story on national/ international media to let everyone know that Dr Hayes, along with Penn Medicine for not care about having principles, values, doing the right thing, only money, and they are very evil to the core of thier souls, if they even have them.

Dr Hayes will go to jail for life for manslaughter, and Penn Medicine will be shut-down, or at least massively fined sending a clear message through the Healthcare industry.

YesYesYes

I would very greatly appreciate if you could help me reach as big an audience as possible on every level and type of media. I have no qualms at all about using my name and info. In fact I prefer to use my name and full contact info, as you also may please do. I will sign any type of release forms immediately for that if necessary. Please contact me with any and every person, organization that you know of who may be capable of, or be in contact with anyone else who is capable of, using the law, media, people in power, any possible thing that can raise awareness, make a difference in what is going on that this may never happen again to anyone else please.

Both of my brothers, up until the passing of my father on 4/25/24, had been estranged from my parents and me several times, including the longest and latest estrangement between 2020 - 2023. During that time, there had been volatile incidents, for example one in public and another in my parents’ home, during which my mother stayed in her room when both sons came to the house.

Only as my father was dying did they reinsert themselves into my mother’s life. I had both my parents tested at a Memory Center with a Geriatric Specialist, as well as Home Care medical reports of my mother’s cognitive decline. In fact my brother, Victor, was pressing for an aide, stating that she had “plenty of dementia” in several of his text messages that can easily be produced.

Shortly after my father’s death, my brothers made many false allegations against me in order to mislead, control, and isolate my mother. When I returned back to work and when key friends and family were no longer at her home to support her, they began to increase the frequency and intensity of their visitations. Within days after that, they then took her to a new attorney, not her longtime attorney, and in one day, the attorney prepared and had her execute a new document that named my brothers as new POAs. These false allegations have been corroborated as incorrect by the few corroborating witnesses who testified and other actual evidence. The false allegations continue to this day.

She still believes the false allegations, My brothers need to control who she sees; they cannot permit her to connect with her long-time relationships. They know that she may have periods of lucidity and remember something and that will burst that bubble.

County Courthouse Corruption:

Rule 2.11 for Judges; Rule 1.7 - 1.8 for Attorneys
Failing to Enter an Appearance
Misleading role in proceedings
Possible incident of coercion

Several judges and attorneys in this county belong to a musical group touting their legal profession as the name of their band.

Although this may appear to be a positive endeavor at accord between rivals in the courtroom, one should expect that an attorney and a judge belonging to this band would either disclose or recuse themselves if they found themselves in the same case.

One should also presume that an attorney belonging to this band would not purposely enter a case with a judge from the same band, again without disclosure (or recusal by the judge).

Such a situation of conflict of interest carries the possibilities of unethical behavior/procedural errors, biased rulings, and miscarriages of justice. This potentially can create a web of partisanship that essentially eliminates any appearance of impartiality.

Filing a Complaint with Disciplinary Boards (for Judicial and for Attorneys): no other plan of action for Conflict of Interest.
Two different Disciplinary Boards; two different responses to the same conflict of interest complaint filed.

The pledges by the Governor of Pennsylvania, and the Department on Aging to protect senior citizens will fail. There is no plan of action for Emotional Elder Abuse.

Undue Influence and Financial Exploitation are crimes that are insidious and on the rise in the elderly population.
There are some forensic psychiatrists who consult on contested Wills to a person’s testamentary capacity and undue influence (Example Dr. Bennett Blum). The death of the elderly person seems to be the only way to prove predatory manipulation rather than investigating an ongoing situation, despite witnesses, an expert report by a geriatric physician, and evidence of the predators’ history and intentions, rather than helping the victim while they are alive.

“Mental Capacity” and “Undue Influence” are separate issues; both address the issue of vulnerability (Blum).

How do you stop the cycle? The Control by Design? Financial Exploitation?

Ineptness of the Department on Aging:

The Area Agency on Aging can write a report after an incident report, but it is unclear if they have the training and the means to investigate emotional elder abuse and financial exploitation.
For example, a discrepancy between what the investigator reports the victim’s doctor stating and what the same doctor wrote about the victim’s condition in the victim’s file.
Or, a report from a call on undue influence that doesn’t mention any investigation of the allegation, or interviewing the witnesses given.

Filing for a new guardianship in order to see my mother, it has been since 6/7/24. When her neighbor tells me that she brings up my name and doesn't know why we are not speaking, it breaks my heart. aShe deserves to have dignity and the people she loves around her.
Educating others and helping others through similar circumstances, and hopefully engaging law enforcement in strategies that will help in an investigation.

YesYesYes

It is quite daunting to have called so many law offices and to hear the following: 1. Judges never get in trouble; 2. You will have to get used to it and just wait until she passes; 3. This happens all the time; 4. Your mother has to be declared incapacitated for an investigation to happen.
The information is there, but the solution is not.

My father (89 years old) was living in his own home with my mother, his wife of 62 years in Viera, FL. He & my mother have argued all their married life. Daily. Mostly nit-picking from my mom, but they had plenty of good times as well. My father has undiagnosed ADHD with diagnosed Depression & Alcohol Use Disorder. He was always a good driver, albeit a bit on the risk-taking side. My sister (16 months older than me) hated his driving. Her husband & she live in Texas. I live in Orlando, FL. Post retirement my father had little structure in his life other than playing golf a few times a week & taking walks. Arguments & disagreements became more frequent as he was home more. He was "diagnosed" with Alzheimer's dementia in 2015 based on no objective evidence by a geriatric practitioner without a mental health background.
My sister began "telling" him to stop driving 3-4 years ago. No accidents, no tickets. Just because she didn’t like his driving. In March 2022 my parents found my father's car in the garage with 2 flat tires & fluid leaks. He did not know what had happened. My sister came to visit a few days later & demanded to know what happened. My father did not know.
My sister decided it was a drinking/driving accident with no evidence. She went to his doctor (APRN) with my parents & told them he was drinking & driving. The APRN told him she was sending a license revocation to the DMV. My father was very upset. My sister took his car keys & hid them, then flew back to TX. When he became understandably upset, she returned & convinced my mother to place him in a secured memory care tricking him into going to have his arthritic foot evaluated. No talking to him about it. Nothing. This was March 2022. No guardianship.
Did he have an accident? Turned out to be a damaged strut. Whether the strut gave way due to age (they had never been replaced) or hitting a curve is unknown. But he had driven the car home from his location 1 mile away, opened the garage door, and parked in the garage. The damage was not noted until the next day, making it highly likely that he did NOT know what had happened.
I was out of state at the time & was completely left out of the situation until I returned. When I visited him in this secure facility, he was crying, very upset at being locked up, stating he was losing his mind. I began making waves & my sister filed for guardianship.

Elder Abuse - Long story short, her predatory guardianship attorney, the facility administrator, and my sister decided to trespass me from the facility throughout the 6-month pre-trial phase. My father was at the mercy of my sister who lied to him about the guardianship proceedings. He was locked up 8 months before his adjudicatory hearing, with the facility ensuring he could not leave, despite his signing a Revocation of POA in June 2022. He was denied a 2nd opinion in October 2022.
At trial in December 2022, the guardianship attorney, the facility administrator, my sister, the APRN, and the contracted psychiatrist all committed perjury influencing the judge. This was positively verified through my diligent review of medical records & emails post-trial. I did not have an attorney & am having difficulty knowing how to present the perjury to the Judge as she is clearly biased. Medical records I received post-trial reflect normal aging. MoCA assessments performed (14 over 7 years) reflect variable performance, standard for seniors in their 80’s & 90’s per the research. He has been treated for depression for well over a decade. He’s on tons of medications.

My sister was appointed guardian & refuses to listen to my father’s wishes. He BEGS to be permitted to go home & CRIES about how lonely he is. There is next to nothing to do in this place. It’s clean, pretty & boring. My sister only permits me to visit with a biased case manager (friend of the attorney) whom I have to pay $142.00 for each visit.
My Dad is dying from loneliness & depression & there is nothing I can do. It is very sad.
This town of Viera Florida has 1 GA court with 1 GA Judge, well-connected with the local GA lawyers. While this particular attorney is now being investigated by the Florida Bar, it doesn’t help my father at this point. He has been locked up for over 18 months & is not permitted to even see or visit his OWN home. Does the Judge care? No.

Florida Guardianship rules need to be changed. GA Judges should have a solid background in GA law. Private family guardians must be held accountable for their actions towards the Ward. GA Judges should automatically appoint Eldercaring Coordination for high-conflict cases. (The new GA Judge, post-trial, denied Eldercaring, silencing my father's voice). GA courts should demand hard evidence & NOT permit oral testimony as the only form of evidence provided. Family members without the benefit of an attorney should be provided a source of legal counsel. Memory care facilities should NOT be permitted the ability to Trespass a family member without evidence of disruption or criminal activity.

YesYesYes

This was a horrifying eye-opening experience. Florida Statutes ensure a Ward retains several rights such as visitation & access to the courts. This should not be an area a Guardian or a predatory Guardianship attorney can violate or distort. My father is literally dying from the intense depression & loneliness his own daughter & wife have caused him & just wants to spend the rest of his life in his own home, which he is not even permitted to visit.

My elderly mother had already made her Will out as she had a son and daughter disabled one by auto accident another by COPD and she wanted to make sure the two other adult children (I was one) that were guardians of the two disabled would make sure if anything happened to her would have the means to take care of the disabled ones. I was also POA/Patient Advocate for mother if she ever became incapacitated and other sibling POA for finances for our mother. To make a very long stiry shorter a greedy sister decided to become mothers chore person through DHS and started on a plan to put our mother under guardianship when she did not need one and had 2 sons living with her attending to some things. This sister did not get along with one of the brothers and started making false accusations of almost everybody whom she knew helped mom for many years as she was hardly ever around. We started confronting her about taking money, jewelry etc. snd she petitioned probate with slandering lies about the supportive siblings and ones mother put in charge in her end of life plans. She kidnapped mother out of her home took her to her home and isolated her away from even the disabled adult children. She recorded phone calls and monitored everything on a baby monitor in mothers room. When the court date came she had a good attorney with mothers estate and mother had court appointed attorney she did not bring mother to court as she started her on a antidepressant and started her plan to make her seem dementia wad going on. Mother had reported her to Social Security that she changed her address and bank with them without permission and mother was looking forward to tell het story to the judge. Well thst is when we realized the judge was corrupt snd along with sisters attorney in judges chamber already planned the outcome. The judge would not allow myself and other sister in charge of mothers plans. No due process was given we were not allowed to tell her mother had plans in place and did not need a guardian &/or Conservator. Whatever lies or not we do not know only that we were not able to have out day in court to speak the truth or show evidence bank records, end of life plans or anything and were treated like criminals slandered by the actually criminal petitioning the court in the first place. The worst part is our beautiful, trusting, vulnerable elderly mother was put under the racket of hospice and if you could see the picture I took of her when on rare occasion was able to pick her up to through a party for after bring with me for 2 weeks when the criminal went on vacation for het birthday the nurse could not believe she was the same person as I was not drugging her. My mother told the nurse the criminal was stealing her money, her purse and she did not even have a dollar or an ID. The nurse spoke to the criminal a year later mother was dead 58 pounds she had no heart or lung problems. Died from natural causes my ass she died from hospice cocktail caused by a greedy daughter. What I would like to see changed is no guardian petition should ever be accepted by any probate court without mediation first as that gives time fir the truth/evidence snd would have given my mother a voice or myself as Patient advocate/POA speak for her, also a judge should have to ask for these documents and put in writing why she will not honor this and lawyers should have to tell the people that a judge can void them at their own biases and there is nothing you can do about it. Put your plans on video that you do not want a professional guardian if you do not and who you want and where to find your documents or register them.

Pass Bills already written to this affect and make the judges follow the law.

It is mostly all about the money. They will still everything you worked for all your life and leave even your disabled adult children homeless.

For all these corrupt judges, lawyers, doctors, police, nurses, nursing home staff, social workers, professional or sibling guardians etc. get exposed and justice served. You could never believe or imagine the devastation it causes until it happens to you or a loved one. There is nobody immune even all the ones listed above can and do end up in this nightmare.

NoYesYes

Save the vulnerable elderly and disabled from this abuse, because thes elder abuse tasks forces can not even pass the Bills.

Who is Julian Glenn Coatley?
A nice man, a kind man, like his dad, a man of little words, who loves women and children. He cringles when children are mistreated and or when women are abused, especially those with mental disabilities. He is an African American male who sought a normal life with me, his devoted mother, a woman commended as being a loving mother, a mother of over 200% supportive of my dear son, Julian by all over the years who have known me.
I have always been commended as being a genuine good mother with whom my son shared a strong bond. We were always there for one another. To Julian, the words that I utter, "Julian, I love you and I will always stand by you, no matter what".
Julian and I were inseparable in public, always discussing our strong faith and values with others.
The community respected us for our high moral standards. Family activities, such as recreation, dining, and shopping, were integral to our relationship, but the matters of guardianship have deprived us of this.

Our most cherished moments were being dressed well and attending worship services together. That always puts a big smile on Julian's face. (exhibit, son in suit) Julian found solace in these services, which had a profoundly positive effect on his mental state.

He needs his worship services and the association with his spiritual family. We enjoyed so much together, the assemblies, conventions and other spiritual outings which included good clean fun.
Sadly, the matters of guardianship with its restrictive means of care have deprived him of this. To interrupt this does not align with his best interest.

Despite experiencing housing difficulties, my receipt of a housing voucher appeared to be a turning point for me and my dear son, Julian, however, what started with my asking for local government assistance ultimately led to a downward spiral of never ending and ongoing distressing events.

"We ALL have civil and human rights regardless color or race and all of us have rights to fair treatment"
A Press Release:
"FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE":
"African American Families Have Been Fighting For Equality In The State Of NC since the early 1800's". Discrimination is abuse. This injustice as explained below against my son is also discrimination against me as one who is associated with him.
"An elderly African American Mother and dad lives daily in turmoil as they, specifically the elderly mother. fights For her son, separated as a result of unlawful discrimination by Wake County Human Services, as found in a court of law". This elderly mother cries, "WHERE IS MY SON"?

Wrongful Guardianship, Appointment under The ARC of NC DISCRIMINATES by keeping an African American male, Julian Coatley at Risk of Abuse and Exploitation

[Raleigh, NC] - Julian Glenn Coatley, an African adult American male, a vulnerable individual, is isolated from his mother, by being held against his will by a wrongfully court-appointed guardian, with his current whereabouts now unknown.

The guardian has cited the need for him to get "used" to the relocation to a new facility under a proven negligent provider as reason for withholding his location,(pretextual)despite concerns of abuse and exploitation as confirmed by the NC "DHHS", however, evidence suggests the true reason for withholding his location is Julian's history of substantiated abuse and exploitation reports against the very facilities he's been placed in under the guardianship.

'This is a clear case of retaliation and exploitation,' said Denise, a concerned mother and advocate. 'The guardian's actions are putting Julian's safety and well-being at risk, and it's imperative that he is located and protected immediately.'

The motion filed in NC seeks to expeditiously remove the guardianship and address the alleged abuse and exploitation, however getting the hearing lags

Denise is working tirelessly to bring Julian home and raise awareness about the need for guardianship reform to eliminate guardianship abuse. Won't you please help us fight for equality for this African American family in North Carolina, a state with a history of equality against African American families. Please open this link

Who is Julian Glenn Coatley?
A nice man, a kind man, like his dad, a man of little words, who loves women and children. He cringles when children are mistreated and or when women are abused, especially those with mental disabilities. He is an African American male who sought a normal life with me, his devoted mother, a woman commended as being a loving mother, a mother of over 200% supportive of my dear son, Julian by all over the years who have known me.
I have always been commended as being a genuine good mother with whom my son shared a strong bond. We were always there for one another. To Julian, the words that I utter, "Julian, I love you and I will always stand by you, no matter what".
Julian and I were inseparable in public, always discussing our strong faith and values with others.
The community respected us for our high moral standards. Family activities, such as recreation, dining, and shopping, were integral to our relationship, but the matters of guardianship have deprived us of this.

Our most cherished moments were being dressed well and attending worship services together. That always puts a big smile on Julian's face. (exhibit, son in suit) Julian found solace in these services, which had a profoundly positive effect on his mental state.

He needs his worship services and the association with his spiritual family. We enjoyed so much together, the assemblies, conventions and other spiritual outings which included good clean fun.
Sadly, the matters of guardianship with its restrictive means of care have deprived him of this. To interrupt this does not align with his best interest.

Despite experiencing housing difficulties, my receipt of a housing voucher appeared to be a turning point for me and my dear son, Julian, however, what started with my asking for local government assistance ultimately led to a downward spiral of never ending and ongoing distressing events.

"We ALL have civil and human rights regardless color or race and all of us have rights to fair treatment"
A Press Release:
"FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE":
"African American Families Have Been Fighting For Equality In The State Of NC since the early 1800's". Discrimination is abuse. This injustice as explained below against my son is also discrimination against me as one who is associated with him.
"An elderly African American Mother and dad lives daily in turmoil as they, specifically the elderly mother. fights For her son, separated as a result of unlawful discrimination by Wake County Human Services, as found in a court of law". This elderly mother cries, "WHERE IS MY SON"?

Wrongful Guardianship, Appointment under The ARC of NC DISCRIMINATES by keeping an African American male, Julian Coatley at Risk of Abuse and Exploitation

[Raleigh, NC] - Julian Glenn Coatley, an African adult American male, a vulnerable individual, is isolated from his mother, by being held against his will by a wrongfully court-appointed guardian, with his current whereabouts now unknown.

The guardian has cited the need for him to get "used" to the relocation to a new facility under a proven negligent provider as reason for withholding his location,(pretextual)despite concerns of abuse and exploitation as confirmed by the NC "DHHS", however, evidence suggests the true reason for withholding his location is Julian's history of substantiated abuse and exploitation reports against the very facilities he's been placed in under the guardianship.

'This is a clear case of retaliation and exploitation,' said Denise, a concerned mother and advocate. 'The guardian's actions are putting Julian's safety and well-being at risk, and it's imperative that he is located and protected immediately.'

The motion filed in NC seeks to expeditiously remove the guardianship and address the alleged abuse and exploitation, however getting the hearing lags

Denise is working tirelessly to bring Julian home and raise awareness about the need for guardianship reform to eliminate guardianship abuse. Won't you please help us fight for equality for this African American family in North Carolina, a state with a history of equality against African American families. Please open this link

My Mom Charlene has mostly lived alone, with a community around her. Most of us kids live in other states far away.
She ran her own Marriage & Family counseling practice in Normal Heights, San Diego, & was active in the community.
That all changed when she had a massive stroke and was forced to retire. initially, she recovered amazingly well and returned home.

When she was diagnosed with dementia, her Daughter moved in to take care of her. As a result of her stroke, Charlene was unable to manage her own emotions, so it was extremely easy to set her off, because her mind was still sharp and she could reason things out. Emotional abuse was her daughter's weapon of choice to get back at her after any arguement.

Then Dementia set in, and Charlene's daughter began to emotionally abuse her and siphon off her money for her own ends. The rest of the family was not aware any o this was happening because Charlene would not mention it when they called. During a visit, I was able to watch Charlene do quite well on her own, displaying none of the erratic fits of rage her daughter kept telling us about. Afterwards, there were reports of Charlene being picked up by police because she was wandering the streets

Fast forward another year, and multiple abuse complaints had been filed with APS that Sheri was abusing Charlene, during this time Charlene's dementia got worse and with it, Charlene's daughter's abuse of her likewise got worse.

After Charlene went to the ER with a minor complaint, nobody could find her Daughter, who refused to answer her phone. I was called by my Aunt, who was called by the Hospital, and I flew out to find out what was going on. Her Daughter was ignoring Charlene completely during the day and complained that the stress was too much. The family had been told a lie, that Charlene's daughter had a financial power of attorney to take care of Charlene. Charlene's daughter had gotten Charlene to put her name on her bank account and had begun years of siphoning off her money for her own use. at one point, Charlene would be wandering the streets and her daughter simply did not care and did nothing to keep Charlene safe. a few more citizen complaints were filed against her for abusing Charlene, & when Police picked Charlene up off the streets, Her daughter pretended to be someone else and lied to the police officers, until the officers realized who she was and released Charlene into her custody.

None of Charlene's other family members were made aware of any of this because her daughter took their phone numbers off all her information so doctors. Police & social workers had no way to contact us. Then her daughter moved out of Charlene's home completely and abandoned Charlene with occasional home health care visits, which stopped after her daughter stopped using Charlene's money to pay them.

Charlene had long term care insurance, which paid for home health care, but at some point Home health care workers refused to enter Charlene's house due to unsanitary conditions. Charlene lived in cat feces & urine, which soaked her bed and all her furniture, drapes and walls. Charlene often wandered, penniless and destitute, because her daughter stopped providing her food, and removed Charlene's access from her own bank account. Numerous times, Charlene was picked up by neighbors from wandering in the streets hungry and confused. Her neighbors were feeding her, the local restaurant waitresses were feeding her, even the mailman confronted Charlene's daughter and her daughters only response was "I don't care." The daughter kept going into Charlene's house collecting rent from Charlene's renters and paying the bills, all while Charlene continued to live in filth. Eventually, things came to a head when Charlene was picked up yelling at cars while walking out in traffic. The EMT's refused to release her back into her house because she had no food, and the house was unlivable. Finally Charlene's assigned APS Social worker called me from Charlene's phone and let me know what was happening. My wife & I made arrangements for her home to be professionally cleaned.

HHSA refused to prosecute, refused to take her daughter, the abuser off of Charlene's trust when Charlene's faculties eroded to the point where she could not make her own decisions. APS & the state fought every effort from Charlene's family to help her. we trie our best to get someone to file charges and get Charlene's affairs back into anyone's hands other than her abuser, but her abuser remains in control of Charlene and we have sacrificed everything in the fight to protect my mom, my home is in foreclosure and & we've run out of funds.

Hope is in short supply. and we're going to be forced to return Mom back to California because her daughter has all legal control, so after we rescued Mom from the hell her daughter put her in, fairly soon Charlene is going to have to go back where nobody cares, and she will quickly die in that situation.

We don't know where to turn!

After the sudden death of my father in March 2018, my mother returned from Pennsylvania back to her primary residence in Florida. My parents also owned property in Ocean City NJ, where they resided during the summer months. Upon returning to Florida my mother redid her will and estate, as well as adding both myself and sister to both her bank accounts. Both my sister and I reside in Pennsylvania. During early 2020, she was experiencing depression and anxiety but insisted she was OK and wanted to remain in Florida. We spoke every day. She was seeing doctors in Florida and working on different medications. Shortly after the covid 19 pandemic occured my mother called me and said she was in Ocean City NJ. She told me that my sister and brother in law went down unexpectedly as a surprise to bring her up to her NJ home. A few months later she was upset that her electric bill was over 500 dollars and she told me she was calling the electric company. As my sister and her family were at the shore those months I told her that was probably the reason. She didn't want to say anything. My mother was scheduled to see a neurologist in late August. Earlier in August, my mother told me that my sister made a room for her at her house. She believed this was to make it easier for my sister to take her to the upcoming doctor appointment. I went over to see her and her room. I thought it was good for her to be around people rather than alone in Florida or New Jersey. It was the middle of covid and the only person wearing a mask was my mother in her room. When my nephew arrived he did not have a mask. Neither did my niece. My mother told me that she just stayed in her room and always wore her mask. We were both a little concerned but again she didn't want to say anything. Due to covid I was told that I could not attend the appointment only one person was allowed to go. She called me after and said the neurologist wanted some testing done, which was scheduled for late August. Although I asked my sister to please keep me informed, she did not. Most of my information was given to me by my mom. It was difficult visiting her with covid so we mostly talked on the phone all the time. After she had the testing the neurologists provided a 19 page written report, which they also went over in depth with my sister present. My mother told my sister to email me a copy of the report. She called me after the appointment and was a little upset because she couldn't drive anymore. Her diagnosis was dimentia. The report noted multiple things, one being at risk for both benevolent exploitation as well as by others. Her cognitive abilities were very impaired and she needed help in decision making. Several suggestions were made, including that she was not to be alone. It was suggested that a home care person be hired. I was told that they had it covered. However, it was evident that every time I spoke to her she was alone. My mom did not want me to say anything. Shortly after, my mom called me and said she just got back from the hospital. She fell down the steps and broke her ankle, she had to call 911 as again no one was there. She now had to have physical therapy. Then in November of 2020 she called me from the shore and said that my sister had covid so my niece took her to the shore. It was just a matter of time. I have no idea what they were doing with her at this point. I think they took her to a testing site and she was now positive also as well as my sisters husband and daughter. In December, my mother called me upset that her eyes itched and she didn't have an eye doctor in PA. Again, no one was there. I told her I would call her back and called my eye doctor's office who scheduled a tele appointment for later that day. She called me after the appointment and thanked me she really liked the doctor and he said it was common for covid to spread to the eyes. A couple days later I asked her how the drops were working and she said she didn't have them yet. I couldn't beleive it. No one was there. I told her I would go get them and leave on the step but she seemed afraid and told me no she thought someone was picking them up that day. She never wanted me to say anything. I now know why. In March 2021, she told me she was going to a new doctor in Springfield because she didn't have a family doctor here in PA. She called me after the doctor and told me her blood work was good and the doctor also gave her xanax. Knowing that medication was not recommended and specifically mentioned in the 19 page report of August 2020, I was starting to get concerned. We had plans in May if covid was less restrictive to spend some time at the shore together for my birthday. Prior to my birthday my mom asked if we could reschedule the shore but wanted me to come over on my birthday. I went to see her on May 14, 2021 that afternoon. We sat outside talking and I noticed at times she had a blank stare. Something seemed wrong. My sister came home and they were in a rush to go to the shore. My mom said things were not going well and she had 2 doctors appointment the following Monday and Tuesday. I asked her if I could take her and she said she would really like that. I hugged her and left. This was a Friday. I called her Sunday at about 10 PM, hoping it wasn't too late. She said no she was still up. Something didn't seem right and I wanted to make sure she was OK. When I asked her if I could take her to the doctor I could hear my neice in the background saying "tell her you have a ride". She told me I could take her to the next one.
Later that week she called and mentioned that my sister and brother in law were talking about buying her Florida house so she could help me. I didn't need any help and I told her I did not think it was a good idea right now. After being hung up on several times all of a sudden my calls went straight to her voicemail without ringing. My sister had her at the shore. This continued for several days and then I learned that my number was blocked from her phone. Being unable to contact her I became pretty upset. My sister then used the police to keep me from seeing her at her home and I was told that I would have to go through the court system because my sister said something to them about on going problems. Although I told the officier I was being kept from my mother who had dementia by my sister. Unsure what to do, several attorneys said that it was imperitive to contact COSA, the local agency in my area. I was a little hesitant because I didn't want to hurt my mom. I thought to myself no one can keep a person from their mom this is crazy. Then I received a notice in the mail that a PFA was denied. I couldn't believe it. Unsure of what was going on I thought I better let her attorney know in an effort to protect her estate from anything happening so I emailed the attorney informing him of her condition and mention of selling her house in which I was a 50% beneficiary. He replied asking me the names and then told me he couldn't speak to me as I was not his client. Then my phone which was on a family plan with my mom was cancelled. They had access to my phone, my mother's phone, her emails, her properties which locks were changed, and continued to isolate my mother from all communication with me. I was able to get my number back from AT T on June 18, 2021 at which time I decided to stop at both of my mothers banks to see if any changes were made. One bank told me I didn't exist and could not tell me anything else. The second bank told me that all my access was changed and I was not even authorized to make a balance inquiry, but was still on the account. He further said that if he were me he would run to a lawyer. I could not believe this was happening. At this point I did contact COSA, which was supposed to be confidential. I was told an investigation including bank accounts would be done. Then all of a sudden police were storming up my house because a call was made saying I was going to commit suicide. I told them what was going on and again was ignored. This was the first false police report. The day the investigator went to the home, the police again were called with lies about texting threats of killing myself to my mother. No such texts exist. All the while being told this is a civil matter. My friend thought I better go to the District Attorney's office so he drove me up there. The woman there was a disgrace to say the least. It was to much effort for her to write anything down let alone listen to what was happening. It was very deeming and unfriendly and this was supposed to be the person in charge of the so called "elder exploitation unit". What a sad experience. I received multiple nasty messages from my mothers phone as if it was her now accusing me of multiple criminal things and threats to file charges. I continued to receive threats from a relative in Wisconsin, which my lawyer was able to find out who the number belonged to. I noticed on facebook that every family relative disappeared, cousins I haven't talked to in years. Although, I went to the police about the false reports no one could do anything about it. What is scary is that they could actually use my sick mother to say or do anything. After following up with COSA I became very uncomfortable and hired an attorney. Til this day, my phone receives non stop messages from unknow numbers, email texts with explicite content, and all types of things. My mom was my best friend and only family I had left. When I texted my sister asking why her bank accounts were changed, they actually had her call me then took the phone and started screaming oh my god your stealing moms money. I knew now that this was real and my mother was being lied to. The worst part is nobody could help her or me. Then unsure where they had her I called to have a wellness check done. The police officier told me she was OK but never even saw her. Can you imagine. This is a person's loved one and my mother was not there she was in Florida with my sister. Knowing something didn't seem right the next day I called both New Jersey and Florida and Florida was able to confirm that she was at the Florida residence with my sisters family. That week in Florida, my sister took her to the attorney. She was actually the one who drove her there flew her there having full knowledge of the 19 page neurology report and being present at all doctors appointments knowing my mother's disease progressed, while isolating her from her other daughter, and provided a note with one sentence from a different doctor and changed everything on my mother's estate to herself and added her husband to my mothers financial power of attorney. She was now 100% beneficiary of my mothers home in Florida. She didn't stop there though. My father's pension beneficiaries were changed to her children and I was removed from my mom's 401k making my sister 100% of excess of 40,000 dollars. These changes all were made via email communications from my mother's email, which my sister had control of. It did not stop after Florida. I still am not sure about my parent's property in Ocean City. Sadly, as of today and my many attempts for justice my mother still resides with the very abusers who did this. I was attacked for contacting COSA, which I thought was confidential and treated like a criminal throughout the entire court proceeding. Every effort taken failed. No one did anything to help my mom or myself. In fact, doctors wrote letters saying that my mother said I was stealing her money. How pathetic is that. Of course, they will all be reported. Dispite the fact that a second doctor confirmed everything from the original August 2020 report my mother continues to be a victim and remains residing with the very people who did this. My mom continues to be isolated from her daughter knowing the damage caused by such isolation. She continues to be told lies about me so she will say "she doesn't want to see me" despite her progressive dimentia. So when I hear about how all this progress has been made and new task forces focusing on exploiting an elder, it makes me sick. I was forced to testify that I called COSA, which again is CONFIDENTIAL. Their own doctor who wrote a paragraph in his report of what my sister said defaming me with lies and then added his own opinion stating I sounded drunk on a phone message she played for him. This was during an evaluation in which this same doctor said my mom was fine but yet she didn't pass a single test. This is the very agency who is supposed to help my mom. My mother continues to be isolated from me. May of this year will now be 2 years. Evil does not describe what has happened. This is beyond sick and unthinkable. No amount of money can ever give me the time lost with my mother.

EVERYTHING

Be careful trust no one

How it is that a person can be prevented from seeing a parent, and for no reason at all be denied any information regarding their parent's health is unconstitutional. I would like to know how that can happen. A child should not have to pay attorney's to see their parent who they had a healthy loving relationship with. The second a person can not reach their parent something should be done immediately by law enforcement. I am sorry to say that Pennsylvania has failed my mother and myself and I live with emptiness and sadness and will probably never see my mom again. I want everyone to know what has happened to me and my mom and how every effort I took failed. I want answers myself as to how this can happen. I am not sure what my hopes are other than people who do this belong in jail. Not in civil court. There has to be a remedy of prison. I will continue to fight for my mother's justice. I want people to know the truth. Not a single agency helped. NOT ONE!!!!!! Please tell me who I can contact for help. Can congress help? Who? I would like to know.
