Former Nevada Guardian Patience Bristol Released, DA Drops 19 of 20 Felony Charges

On the day before Las Vegas' giant New Years Eve celebration, a quiet hearing took place in Clark County District Court, and a confessed exploiter of the elderly/vulnerable was set free on drastically reduced charges.

Serving over 120 days on five counts of exploiting; eight counts of burglary in the first degree; three counts of obtaining money, property, or labor under false pretense; and four counts of embezzlement against old/vulnerable persons, Patience Bristol was allowed to ring in the New Year as a free woman.
We have to assume that the other 19 charges dropped were in exchange for something. But what exactly was that something? And no one expects Bristol to serve more time based on just one charge.

Her release is either very good, or very bad news for the elderly/vulnerable. Either she ratted on her former employer and mentor Jared Shafer, or the FIX is in!

I can't help but believe Bristol's arrest in November may have been a decoy to distract from much longer term crimes against the elderly committed by her mentor Shafer. If so, its possible that the DA is in cahoots with Shafer, and a deal was cut with Bristol to plead to the one and only charge, pay restitution (probably paid by Shafer), and be sentenced to time served with a plum job waiting for her with one of Shafer's cronies when the story is no longer relevant, and the heat is off.

Or, if I'm wrong, Wolfson got a full confession from Bristol, and based on that information is actively pursuing Shafer on much more serious charges.  Either way, the truth should be known by April 28, 2014, when Patience Bristol is sentenced - unless the U.S. Department of Justice steps in and takes this clear cut RICO case to a higher level as should have happened long ago.  In the meantime, elderly/vulnerable people in Southern Nevada continue to be drained of their life savings by a group of politically connected vultures and grave robbers using the power of the Clark County Family Court to disguise their heinous acts.

Did you see the picture of Patience Bristol when she was arrested? A totally different look!

So who does Bristol know to reduce all those charges to a slap on the wrist?

It sure appears the fix is in. I hope we find out differently.

This is beyond a disgrace. Every single person that had anything to do with freeing Patience and dropping all of the charges should be totally ashamed of themselves. Is every single politician and judicial member corrupt in the state of Nevada?
