Abuse by Caretaker Charges Filed Against Oklahoma Woman

A former activities director at a local assisted living center was charged with felony abuse Wednesday in district court.

Stacy Michelle Brown, 40, Chickasha faced the abuse by caretaker charge for knowingly committing financial neglect involving a disabled, elderly man during about a 18-month timeframe, according to information from the district attorney’s office.

Court documents show that Brown called local police in December 2010 asking if a report had been filed about her involvement in financial exploitation. The acts were committed during the time she was a caretaker, on or between Aug. 1, 2009, and Jan. 1, 2011.

Brown admitted to Chickasha Police Officer G.G. Music Jr. that she took about $4,550 from the 87-year-old disabled veteran, records show. Music reported in documents that Brown said she had also planned on personally changing the victim’s POA (Power of Attorney) and nominating herself. She had also planned on splitting his estate proceeds with a business woman in town.
