Misappropriation [Embezzlement] of Estate Assets - $107,692.30

SUPERIOR COURT OF THE STATE CALIFORNIA FOR THE COUNTY OF LOS ANGELES

In Re the Estate of EDWINA FULLER CASE NO. BP 135381


It is alleged that $107,692.30 was misappropriated from the Estate of Edwina J. Fuller by Steven A. Fuller with the assistance of Atty. Teddie J. Randall.

Edwina J. Fuller passed away on 02 June 2012, her conservatorship ended upon her death and thus became "the Estate of Edwina J. Fuller" and subject to California Probate Code.

$107,692.30 was paid to the Estate of Edwina J. Fuller on 29 September 2014 by Atty. Tala R. Davis in her capacity as Successor Trustee of the Thelsey L. Fuller Trust and from the Estate of Thelsey L. Fuller [LASC Case# BP 122 665] by Comerica Bank check #000250402 to Mr. Steven A. Fuller. 

No accounting has been made to the court in regards to the $107,692.30 received by Mr. Steven A. Fuller in connection with the court cases:

LASC Case# BP 099 211 Fuller, Edwina - Conservatorship 

LASC Case# BP 135 381 Fuller, Edwina - Decedent

But, instead those monies have been excluded from any accounting filed by Atty. Teddie J. Randall and his client Mr. Steven A. Fuller with the court in regards to the Estate of Edwina J. Fuller and or the cases cited above.



That these monies were taken without being reported to the court, without the consent of the court and without the oversight of the court constitutes fraud and financial elder abuse against the beneficiaries of the Estate of Edwina J. Fuller.

Shirley Ritchey, daughter
Sandra Arnold, daughter
Robert Fuller, son
Doris Fuller, daughter

That those monies have been embezzled and fraudulently converted is a violation of statutory law.

It is further alleged that Steven A. Fuller owes each beneficiary $21,538.46, their portion of the $107,692.30 paid to the Estate of Edwina J. Fuller by the Estate of Thelsey L. Fuller. That California Probate Law should have been applied by the court before any monies were distributed or confiscated by Steven A. Fuller and or any of his attorneys.

FIRST AND FINAL ACCOUNT AND REPORT OF ADMINISTRATOR; PETITION FOR APPROVAL OF DISBURSEMENTS; PETITION FOR STATUTORY FEES AND COMMISSIONS; FOR EXTRAORDINARY FEES; AND FOR FINAL DISTRIBUTION [PROBATE CODE 10900-1100, 10954] 

Set for hearing 16 June 2015, 8:30 AM, Department 5, The Honorable Maria E. Stratton

"MATTER CONTINUED" - THE SAVAGING OF ELDER'S ASSETS

An appeal by the defendants is still pending, therefore the Trust asset(s) should not have been sold or placed on the market in the first place.

Instead of the home in Compton being sold for $100,000.00 below fair market value, okay $50,000.00 below fair market value for the sake of argument… The proceeds from the collection of rent could have gone toward paying the attorney fees accumulated by Steven A. Fuller in the legal pursuit suit against his father.

Not only that but, Steven could have made an agreement with the Successor Trustee and could have borrowed against the Trust asset er, Edwina’s portion [50% of the asset] being that the real estate was free and clear.  Rented the property at fair market value and repaid the loan in order to pay the attorneys.

The Trust real estate asset in Inglewood is exclusively the property of the Trust, thus all of the beneficiaries of the Trust.

Hm?

Now, the Successor Trustee and his attorney quit after a complaint was filed against them with the Bar. Which is why Steven is running around like a chicken with his head cut off looking for another flunky to be put in as Successor Trustee in order to complete his sinister designs on the selling of the Trust assets against everyone's wishes and before the appeal is heard.

Enter -- B241450
http://appellatecases.courtinfo.ca.gov/search.cfm?dist=2

The Successor Trustee was doing the bidding of Steven A. Fuller. The Trust and how it could benefit ALL of the Trust beneficiaries was never his concern.

Yep, and the defendant's appeal is still pending before the appeals court... they were granted all Trust assets but, lost at trial. The only thing they admit is their debt to the estate of Edwina Fuller - $107,692.30.

Selling of the Trust asset below fair market value is considered financial elder abuse by Adult Protective Services, three of the Trust beneficiaries are over 70-years-old.

That said, consider that the attorneys representing either side during the PC 850 had every opportunity over 15 months to place Mr. Thelsey Leo Fuller, who's assets are the center of these various court cases, on the witness stand.

The plaintiff did not place Mr. Thelsey Leo Fuller on the witness stand.

The defendants did not place Mr. Thelsey Leo Fuller on the witness stand.

We believe that had Thelsey been placed on the witness stand he would have had the opportunity to express what he wanted.

It is fairly obvious as to why Mr. Thelsey Leo Fuller was not placed on the witness stand by either party during the PC 850 trial to determine ownership of the Inglewood property.

More likely than not, Steven would have been disinherited and Thelsey would have stated that his assets were to be divided equally amongst his other children.

“THIS AIN’T NO GAME SHOW!”

California to Take a Tougher Stance on Financial Elder Abuse

October 6, 2013, 08:00:00AM. By Heidi Turner

Share on facebookShare on twitterShare on emailShare on printMore Sharing Services10

San Diego, CA: California is expected to pass three bills that will take a tougher stance on financial elder abuse than existing laws currently do. Those laws, which deal with elderly financial abuse, would not only update the definition of undue influence as it relates to elder abuse, but would also require notary publics to report suspected elder abuse.

According to Fox 5 San Diego (9/30/13), California Governor Jerry Brown has until October 12 to either sign or veto the proposed bills, which are designed to hold people more accountable for elder financial fraud. Among them are Assembly Bill 477, which would require notaries to notify authorities if they suspect elderly financial abuse is occurring, and Assembly Bill 140, which updates the definition of undue influence related to financial abuse.

In August 2013, Brown signed into law Assembly Bill 381, which allows the courts to award attorney’s costs and fees in situations where seniors are financially abused by people who have power of attorney.

The bills are likely welcome news for people concerned about how California’s seniors are treated, but it may come too late for some. In fact, regulators in California are accused of ignoring complaints of elder abuse. According to a report by the Center for Investigative Reporting (9/9/13; found online at cironline.org) in 2009, the California Department of Public Health told investigators to dismiss approximately 1,000 complaints of elder abuse and theft. This means almost 1,000 cases of elderly financial, physical and sexual abuse have been closed without a proper investigation, according to the Center for Investigative Reporting.

Much financial elder abuse is committed by trusted family members and associates, who are given power of attorney and have control of the senior’s money. Because financial elder abuse is often perpetrated by a family member, many seniors do not report it. Even if they do, because of their age, there is a chance they will have passed away before ever being compensated for their losses.

Elder Medi-Cal Fraud?

Isolate your victim from all other family members other than yourself.

Set up your victim's Trust with the assistance of a shyster to benefit you, the abusers.

Obtain Power of Attorney over all of your victim's affairs.

Hide real estate transactions, slander real estate titles.

Take out a reverse mortgage on your own home and then have your victim gift it back to you a few months later.

Empty all of your victims bank accounts, search their home too.

Lie, obstruct, abuse, commit fraud and undue influence.

Place your 92-year-old victim in an undisclosed convalescent hospital against their will, and sign them up for Medi-Cal when you know damn well that your victim has medical insurance.

The hospital then charges Medi-Cal for services and once your victim dies in said undisclosed convalescent hospital the state goes after your deceased victim's spouse's estate for repayment of Medi-Cal expenses via a Creditor's Claim once your victim's spouse dies.

Refuse to repay your victim's estate in excess of $235,000.00 as order by the Court, take over your victim's real estate and go laughing all the way to the bank because you know that you will never be prosecuted for criminal elder abuse, theft and fraud!

Cop, Wife Charged in Financial Elder Abuse - UPDATE

 

A former Pinole police commander and his wife have been charged with defrauding an 82-year-old Pleasanton woman by placing her entire estate into a trust they controlled, authorities said Friday.

Matthew Messier, 36, of Pleasanton is accused of using his position as a commander at the Pinole Police Department to gain the trust of his neighbor, Jean Phyllis Jones, who is described in court records as having "diminished mental capacity" and an inability to make financial decisions.

Messier, an 11-year veteran who was second-in-command in Pinole before he resigned on Oct. 23, was arrested at his home Thursday and is facing a host of felony charges. His wife, Elizabeth Regalado, 30, is being sought on a conspiracy charge.

Pleasanton police were alerted to possible elder abuse by the Alameda County Adult Protective Services agency, which checks into the well-being of disabled adults.

The criminal complaint filed by prosecutors says the couple took advantage of Jones, who lives three doors away, starting in January.

This goes to show that it depends entirely where one commits their crimes against elders, I'm damn glad these two had their sorry asses arrested by the authorities.

Robert and Doris Fuller are still at large, not one single agency has moved to bring charges against them. 

I believe their crimes are much more sinister, however, they committed their crimes in Los Angeles County. - BAM

Aunt Annie Retired From The Rock Hill Police Department

I sure wish Robert, Doris and Daniel pulled their elder abuse, financial elder abuse, fraud and undue influence in South Carolina they would all be in jail.

Selective Prosecution by California Attorney General

4 arrested in alleged scheme that targeted elderly

The Associated Press
Published: Friday, Sep. 21, 2012 - 4:02 pm

SACRAMENTO, Calif. -- Authorities have arrested four California residents for allegedly running a Ponzi scheme that defrauded dozens of investors out of $2.3 million from 2003 to 2011.

Attorney General Kamala Harris said Friday that the four suspects were charged with 66 felony counts of elder abuse, securities fraud and conspiracy.

Officials say husband and wife Philip and Ellen Lester, both 65, were arrested Thursday in Riverside County. Susan Laferte and Jonathan Blinder, both 58, were taken into custody Thursday in Nevada County.

My experience with the California Attorney General's office under Brown and now Harris has been that prosecuting elder abuse is not their top priority.  The same can be said for just about any government agency charged with protecting our elders and bringing those to justice that bring mental, physical and financial abuse to bear on our elders.
