Maricopa County prosecutors say 69-year-old Rodney Matheson also was
sentenced Friday to seven years of supervised probation after serving
his prison term.
Matheson was disbarred in September 2013 and arrested by Gilbert police in February 2014.
He pleaded guilty to one count of theft and one count of fraudulent schemes.
Matheson originally was charged with two counts of fraudulent schemes
and two counts of theft with investigators accusing him of
misappropriating as much as $6 million.
Prosecutors accused Matheson of orchestrating a shell game by taking
money from two estates to satisfy a court order for payment of $800,000
to the Mayo Clinic, the major beneficiary of a third estate.

$6 million? Wow - it's amazing that someone could steal that much and I wonder how he got caught.
I am glad every time one of these thieves is held accountable!
Just a drop in the bucket of the fraudulent guardianship mafia in Arizona.
