Politician Most Likely to Sell Grandma to the Highest Bidder
Critic’s choice: Tarrant County Judge Steve King

Tarrant County Judge Pat Ferchill isn’t the only jurist abusing his position to suck elderly and disable people into a legal system that strips their rights while emptying their bank accounts. Tarrant County boasts two elected judges –– Ferchill and King –– who hear guardianship cases on a regular basis and seem overly eager to put people (and their money) under guardianship. They do this under the guise of protecting the seniors, but many of those seniors say what they most need protection from is the court.

  2. My father was put under a guardianship by Judge King. LOL, they put his assets under a trust and said they wouldn't handle anything under a million. The family doesn't get any say so about his care. He is put in a facility far away from family. What can be done? No attorneys in Tarrant County will touch it!
