    OMG my head is spinning I agree with Anon I hope the Feds go looking into probate court estates and conservatorship cases one Judge Randy Kennedy king of the pile of $. And while the Feds are in town they need to do some serious reading in the Robert Thurman conservatorship case, involving land deal development and so much more.
