A Hagerstown man has been given 7 1/2 years in prison for bilking an elderly Boonsboro man out of more than a quarter-million dollars.
Forty-year-old Daniel Meldron was sentenced for obtaining the property of a vulnerable adult with dementia. The victim had given Meldron power of attorney.
Meldron also must make restitution of about $279,00 he drained from one of the victim's accounts.

Celebrate this one!
Now we're talking - jail time AND resitution. The best recipe for justice!
Our justice system is so screwed up! Just where is this thief going to come up with 1/4 mil for restitution? What happens when he can't? Hope after his two yr. sentence he spends the rest of his life doing mandatory service work for nursing facilities such as laundry, bed pans, pulling weeds in flower beds with a tracking devise on his ankle so he can be located at all times. This crap goes on every day with no protection to the elderly. Guardians from our legal system do it too onlt they have court protection! "Vengence is mine says the Lord"
