Robin Joy Vale, 35, was charged in June by summons in Olmsted County District Court with three counts of exploiting a vulnerable adult.
The woman had a checking and savings account, with deposits made from her benefits and pension.
On Aug. 1, the woman was admitted to a Grand Meadow nursing home, the report says; Vale completed and signed the admission forms. She made one $550 payment on Dec. 11, despite the woman's alleged need for clothing and personal items.
A review of the bank statements from July through December 2013 revealed $8,978.12 in deposits from the alleged victim's benefits and pension. The statements indicate $8,022 in cash withdrawals and $1,148.71 in debit purchases.
The nursing home bills, addressed to Vale, went unpaid, the report says, and accrued a balance due of $7,610 by the December statement.
According to the criminal complaint, Vale said Kwik Trip expenditures on the bank account were for gas for driving to the nursing home to visit the woman, but surveillance video showed the transactions included food, fuel, tobacco and DVDs.

ReplyDeleteShe did exactky what her grandmother asked her to do! Her grandmother purchased these kind of things and wanted to, long before she needed nursing home care. Fact.
