Linda Kincaid will be co-hosting this show.
Our guest tonight is Diane Wilson, daughter of Dorothy Wilson. Jim Fargiano will also be joining the show.
Dorothy Wilson died of loneliness and despair after being put under a guardianship and isolated by a predator guardian. Once inside Bristal Assisted Living, Dororthy's estate was billed $53,000 for one month. Then on to Meadowbrook where she was isolated from family and friends. Next came Maria Regina Nursing home after Dorothy had an unnecessary surgery.
During these events, Dorothy Wilson's home was mortgaged, her personal possessions given away to those who cooperated with the predator, her car included. Abuse was documented, as well as the failure of the predator to provide required financial reporting documentation to the probate court.
All of this was reported to the New York State Judicial Commission, a commission which did absolutely nothing to protect the life of Dorothy Wilson.

I am listening to it now. It's a great show!
ReplyDeleteReading these abuses and expolitation stores of elderly victims, is a disgrace for the American Judiciary. I am not saying this lightly, but it shows a complete disregard for the life or welfare of those who were the backbone of America in their younger years, and are now being exploited for their assets to pay for their own care. eb
ReplyDeleteGreat show, Marti and Linda. :)
ReplyDeleteWe're experiencing the same thing in Cook County, IL..
Something that may be helpful, if victims created blogs with info on how to report this abuse in their counties.
