CT Confidential: Ethics Judge Faces Charges

A probate judge who provides training to other judges on ethics, Bryan F. Meccariello, now faces misconduct charges arising from his approval to change the will of a woman without bothering to tell the man who was due to inherit much of her estate.

This is the same probate system that tells you that all my complaints about probate misconduct are the rants of an extremist. One of their own ethics "experts" has been nabbed abusing the system. In this case, Meccariello approved the change in a will at a hearing nobody was informed of.

CT is extremely lucky to have an investigative reporter like Rick Green who is courageous enough to expose the corruption in the courts in his state. Most of the press choses to close their eyes to the wrongdoing of lawyers and judges. Keep up the good work Rick and if the people in CT are bothered by your "extremeist rants" we New Yorkers need and welcome your help;

I recognized the phrasing of Rick Green, too. He's one of our heros!

Hold on, Annie McKenna, are you trying to get Rick Green to move to your state? Because if you are, there's going to be a tug of war from other states to get him!

Thank you Rick Green, for all you've done to shine a bright light on guardianship abuse and corruption.

I hope judge Meccariello is disbarred. He should be. Purposeful violations of basic due process should carry a stiff penalty.

Perhaps an investigation of the contributions to Meccariello's campaign would be revealing?
