Calif. seems to lead prosecuting ethical misconduct as the felony it is.
ReplyDeleteIn our case, it's WFBank. State agencies allow the abuse. Try and file criminal charges against a court officer, executor or trustee and see where it gets you.
Nevada Dept of Aging Services, Washoe cty. DA & State Bar refused investigation when complaints filed. To quote:” its nothing out of the ordinary”.
Family Courts sets up various parties to exploit senior deaths, taking advantage with the dissolving and breakup of families. It’s quite an industry, court officers feeding income to state officials with a few select others thrown in.
Unethical behavior is a principal reason the ‘tali-ban & Al-Qaida’ denounce western society. Ethical conduct is mostly scrutinized in hi-public officials & ignored for the bureaucratic morass.
Whether or not she forged checks should be an easy thing to determine.
ReplyDeleteAnd if she did (which she probably did), then why did she plead not guilty?
I think if a person pleads not guilty and there is a mountain of evidence against him/her (like this case), an extra year in jail should be added to the sentence for lying to the court.
I am steaming once again.
ReplyDeleteDaisy Lee Joubert is a caregiver alright, caring for herself first.
This is the tip of the iceburg.
If we could only go back to old time real justice, that would be a real warning deterrent to others to proceed with caution: BEWARE.
If a thief found guilty of crimes had their hands removed; the stealing and fraud would stop, permanently yes?
Unethical behavior doesn't shock people anymore. It's everywhere we turn.
ReplyDeleteNontheless, it's sickening and it's very scary.
Another case of preying on the helpless.
ReplyDeleteShe should be locked up and the key thrown away.
How can anyone use the word - trust?
ReplyDeleteTrust does not exist - how sad.
