The county's chief probate judge has issued an order that investigators revisit the home of the in-laws of county Prosecutor David Leyton after an elder abuse program official claimed she wasn't allowed to visit recently.Judge Jennie E. Barkey issued the order Tuesday after Diane Nims, executive director of the county's Elder Abuse and Exploitation Prevention program, said in a letter to the court that Leyton's 82-year-old mother-in-law rejected a scheduled visit.
Barkey ordered that the elder abuse program conduct a home visit and geriatric assessment of the couple during a visit today instead.
Leyton's in-laws are at the center of legal fight in which his wife and two other siblings are opposing petitions for guardianship and conservatorship requested by another sibling.

You see: It can happen to anyone!
I think the world has forgotten these are people not widgets.
"Do un to others as you want done to you"
The Mother rejected the visit so the Judge sends the troops in?
I think that's wrong. Anyone should have the right to say, "Not today."
This case smells of DHS flexing their muscles. I hope I'm wrong.
Right on, Thelma!
I am sure the Leyton family is feeling a lot like guardianship victims families during this.
SET DOWN AT THE TABLE AND WORK THIS OUT, LEYTON FAMILY.
DON'T GIVE THE GOVERNMENT A CHANCE TO GET IN YOUR LIFE.
