"Trick or Treat"

The police may not do anything, the district attorney may not do anything, the court may not do anything and all those elected to be public servants and to work for the better good for all of civil society may not do anything but...

One thing is certain one day all of your sorry asses will belong to me... for eternity!

CSUF Hosts Violence Prevention Conference

Students and faculty gathered in the Titan Student Union at Cal State Fullerton Saturday to attend the 13th annual Violence Prevention Conference that reported on trends in elder abuse.

This year’s conference, titled Voices of the Victims: Abuse Across the Lifespan, featured a host of speakers that included Orange County Superior Court Judge Nancy Wieben Stock, community educator Robert Diaz, and authors Julia Chadwell and Alyce La Violette, who have both written about domestic violence.

Also included this year was a panel on elder abuse, which included experts Cristi Dugger of Human Options, Joyce Riley from Orange County Adult Protective Services, Erin Tinoco of the Anaheim City Attorney’s Department and detective Cherie Hill of the Anaheim Police Department.

The panel pointed out that although elder abuse may not be as well known of an issue as other types of domestic abuse, it is still very prevalent.

“This is a huge problem. They just did a study and they found that every year, one in ten seniors about 65 or older are victims of abuse,” Dugger said.

Dugger also said that in cases of people with dementia, the study showed that one in every two suffered abuse.

It was mentioned that a majority of elder abuse comes from within the family, meaning that more batterers are typically members of the victim’s family...

"My Hope Is Built"

ELDER ABUSE EXPOSED DOT COM

Retired Los Angeles Police Department Captain Glenn R. Ackerman Says Probate Judges Failed to Protect Abused, Elderly Mother

I discovered that my then-82-year-old mother’s life savings—about $150,000—had been stolen by a relative. My mother, Jonnye Ketchum, was left penniless, except for a $900 per month pension; she was fortunate in that her home, in Camarillo, California, was fully paid for.

I immediately filed an elder abuse crime report with the Camarillo station of the Ventura County Sheriff’s Office, naming the relative, whom I shall call the “perp” for brevity, as the suspect. The detective assigned to the case had never before handled an elder abuse case and literally had no idea how to proceed. As I was one of the founders of the Los Angeles Police Department’s Elder Abuse Unit and a former commanding officer of the Financial Crimes Division, of which the Elder Abuse Unit is a part, I was able to bring in two expert detectives from that unit to assist in the investigation.

Their tests and interviews of Mrs. Ketchum revealed that she was suffering from significant mental impairment and that the perp had obtained her savings through an ongoing pattern of threats and browbeating; even as the investigation was being conducted, there was evidence that the perp was helping herself to the bulk of Mrs. Ketchum’s pension. The perp admitted to receiving large sums of money from Mrs. Ketchum, but characterized these takings as freely proffered “gifts” and “loans.”

When the case was submitted to the Ventura County District Attorney’s Office for filing, it was summarily rejected on the basis of a seemingly willful failure to understand the fundamental elder abuse concepts of diminished capacity and undue influence. In effect, Mrs. Ketchum was deemed competent to divest herself of every asset and die in the gutter.

She Says I'm Not The Same

My wife claims that I'm not the same as I was before the elder abuse, financial elder abuse that was visited upon my grandparents before their deaths.

How on earth could anyone be the same after trusted family members dog out one's parents and the entire family?

I understand that Doris is upset because she is being referred to as "Doris Fuller Stewart," her married name in court papers.

I just don't understand why she would be upset about such a trivial matter...

It's the name she had Citibank put on the check when she and her partner in crime, Robert Fuller, stole Daddy's MONEY!

Who says crime doesn't pay?

Alan Jackson, L.A. County D.A. Candidate, Generous Donor is a Felon

"Victorino Noval and his family are enthusiastic supporters of Alan Jackson's bid to become Los Angeles County's next district attorney.

The self-styled philanthropist has given $3,000, the legal maximum, to Jackson's election campaign. His three adult sons have donated thousands of dollars, with one son giving $100,000 to the California Republican Party a day before the party spent nearly $80,000 on voter mailers championing the prosecutor.

Posted on a Facebook page for Noval's foundation are photographs of a fundraiser Noval says he held for Jackson at his Beverly Hills mansion earlier this year, with guests mingling as a mariachi band played.

The photos of a beaming Jackson standing with Noval capture what would be an ordinary scene of a donor hobnobbing with a district attorney candidate except for one issue:  Noval is a felon."

Seniors Raise Voices about "Elder Abuse"

Danvers seniors raise voices about "Elder Abuse"

"A group of 12 senior actors have been gathering at the Danvers Council on Aging for rehearsals of their upcoming play, “Breaking the Silence: Voices of Hope.” As they read through the script, the words they speak reflect a heartbreaking reality since the play is based on actual stories of elder abuse and neglect. But the takeaway message of the play is one about hope."

16 FREEZE YOUR FATHER'S ASSETS AT CITIBANK HAD BEEN 
17 UNSUCCESSFUL, DIDN'T YOU?

NOT ON JULY 1ST. WE -- AT FIRST, DADDY TOLD US 

23 TO GO GET HIS MONEY OUT THE BANK. 

24 AND WE WENT OVER TO THE BANK, THEY WOULDN'T GIVE 
25 IT TO US. SO THE BANK BRANCH MANAGER SAID THEY WERE WAITING 
26 FOR THIS FREEZE, AND THEN THAT DIDN'T HAPPEN. THREE OR FOUR 
27 DAYS PASSED BY. SO FINALLY DADDY SAID, PUT ME IN THE CAR 

28 AND TAKE ME TO THE BANK. AND THAT'S WHAT WE DID. 

11 

1 Q AND THAT OCCURRED ON JULY 1ST OF 2009? 

2 A I'M NOT SURE EXACTLY WHAT DATE IT WAS.

(A DISCUSSION WAS HELD IN OPEN COURT, 
WHICH WAS NOT REPORTED.) 

THE COURT: GO AHEAD. 

BY MR. LAK 

Q AND HOW OFTEN DID KAISER EMPLOYEES VISIT YOUR 

FATHER IN YOUR HOME? 

A ABOUT EVERY OTHER DAY UNLESS SOMETHING HAPPENED, 

AND WE WOULD CALL THEM AND THEY WOULD COME OUT, LIKE, ON AN 
EMERGENCY VISIT. 

Q AND WHAT WOULD THEY DO WHEN THEY GOT TO YOUR 

HOUSE? 

A WELL, IT DEPENDS ON WHO CAME. ENEDENA, SHE'S 

HISPANIC. I THINK IT'S E-N-E-D-E-N-A, BUT I'M NOT SURE. 
BUT SHE WOULD COME AND BATHE DADDY. AND THEN THE NURSE, 

NURSE WOULD COME OUT AND, YOU KNOW, TAKE HIS BLOOD PRESSURE 
AND MAKE SURE HE HAD HIS MEDICINE AND TAKE HIS PULSE, AND 
STUFF. 

Q WERE THERE ANY OTHER PROFESSIONALS OR SOCIAL 

29 

1 WORKERS COMING TO THE HOUSE TO VISIT YOUR FATHER? 

2 A YES. 

3 Q WHO WERE THOSE? 

4 A HOLD ON, LET ME THINK. IT WAS ONE -- I CAN'T 

5 PRONOUNCE HER LAST NAME. I THINK HER FIRST NAME MIGHT HAVE 
6 BEEN SHELBY, BUT THE LAST NAME WAS THIS (INDICATING) LONG. 

7 AND THEN IT WAS A GRETCHEN, SHE WAS A SOCIAL 

8 WORKER. GRETCHEN I WANT TO SAY PHILLIPS, BUT THAT MIGHT NOT 
9 BE IT. I KNOW IT WAS GRETCHEN. AND TERESA WAS A NURSE THAT 

10 CAME OUT. AND THEN NELSON, MARIE NELSON, SHE WAS A NURSE. 

11 Q SO IS IT SAFE TO SAY THAT A NUMBER OF PEOPLE 

12 FROM, KAISER PEOPLE WERE VISITING YOUR FATHER, AS YOU 

13 STATED, ALMOST EVERY OTHER DAY? 

14 A YES. THEY CAME ABOUT THREE DAYS A WEEK. THE 

15 DOCTOR CAME OUT, TOO. 

16 Q ALL RIGHT. 

17 DID YOUR FATHER EVER GO TO THE LAW OFFICES OF 

18 DANIEL LAK, PHYSICALLY, IN IRVINE? 

19 A NO. 

20 Q AND WHEN THE TRUST WAS SIGNED JULY 23RD, WHO WAS 

21 PRESENT? 

22 A IT WAS YOU, MS. FIONA, THE OTHER LADY, I DON'T 

23 REMEMBER HER NAME -- MICHELLE, RANDY, ROBERT, MS. EVA AND 

24 DEON DARRION. NOT DEON, DARRION. 

25 Q AND WHEN THE TRUST WAS SIGNED, WERE YOU IN THE 

26 SAME ROOM WATCHING IT BEING SIGNED? 

27 A I WAS, ACTUALLY, GIVING THE BABY SOME LITTLE 

28 STICKY CANDIES, LIKE GUMMY BEARS. 

30 

1 Q SO YOU WERE NOT PHYSICALLY PRESENT WHEN THE 

2 TRUST WAS SIGNED? 

3 A I WAS IN THE HOUSE, BUT I WASN'T SITTING AT THE 

4 TABLE WITH YOU GUYS. 

5 Q DO YOU KNOW, FROM THE BEST OF YOUR RECOLLECTION, 

6 WHO WAS THERE AT THE TABLE WITH YOUR FATHER? 

7 A YOU, MS. FIONA, ROBERT WAS SITTING NEXT TO DADDY 

8 AND -- I DON'T KNOW IF RANDY WAS IN THERE OR NOT. I CAN'T 

9 REMEMBER THAT. 

10 Q AND WHO IS MS. FIONA? 

11 A THE NOTARY, SHE'S A NOTARY. I STARTED TO SAY 

12 COURT REPORTER, BUT SHE'S A NOTARY PUBLIC. 

13 Q WERE YOU AWARE THAT YOUR FATHER CANCELED THE 

14 DURABLE POWER OF ATTORNEY PREVIOUSLY AUTHORIZING 

15 SHIRLEY CAROL RITCHEY? 

16 A YES. 

17 Q WHEN DID YOU FIRST BECOME AWARE OF THAT? 

18 A MAYBE THE DAY WE WENT TO THE BANK OR THE DAY 

19 BEFORE, I'M NOT SURE. I DON'T REMEMBER EXACTLY. 

20 Q DO YOU KNOW WHY YOUR FATHER WOULD HAVE CANCELED 

21 THE POWER OF ATTORNEY? 

22 A NO, I DON'T. 

23 Q DID YOU EVER ASK HIM ABOUT THAT? 

24 A NO. 

25 Q AND WHY DID YOU NOT ASK HIM ABOUT THAT? 

26 A I DON'T LIKE TO ASK PEOPLE PERSONAL QUESTIONS. 

27 MR. LAK: NO FURTHER QUESTIONS, YOUR HONOR.
