Cesar Ulloa, a former employee at the upscale Calabasas Silverado Senior Living Center, is in trial this week. The Los Angeles District Attorney's office charged Ulloa with seven counts of elder abuse and one count of torture for abusing and mistreating the center's elderly patients.
Elder abuse is a "wobbler" which means that the prosecutor has the discretion to charge the offense as a misdemeanor or a felony.

There are many forms of elder abuse and it's happening every day to our parents, grandparents and even some children. It is happening by employees, judges, attorneys, court appointed guardians and fiduciaries. It's time for all who know of this abuse to stand up and be a voice.
If these allegations are correct, I hope Cesar Ulloa never sees daylight.
Punish to the max!
There's some pretty sick stuff that happens to residents of nursing homes.
