Donald George Polikowsky, 64, entered a plea of guilty Thursday in Olmsted County District Court to one count of financial exploitation of a vulnerable adult. He had been facing four counts of the crime for allegedly taking money from his mother’s accounts after she was diagnosed with dementia in 2009.
The specific crime to which Polikowsky is admitting is that between Feb. 17 and Feb. 22, 2012, he wrote two checks from a joint checking account with his mother. Authorities say those checks for a combined $30,400 were issued to Polikowsky and his son, 31-year-old Jason Polikowsky.
Donald Polikowsky is set to be sentenced on June 21.
Jason and his wife, 39-year-old Jessica Polikowsky, are charged with 14 counts each of financial exploitation of a vulnerable adult for allegedly taking hundreds of thousands of dollars from his grandmother’s accounts. They have pleaded not guilty and are due to stand trial on June 27.
