Woman Accused of Stealing $250,000+ From 93-Year-Old Father

A Douglas County woman is accused of stealing a $250,000 from her 93-year-old father.

Authorities say 62-year-old Vicky Jo Adams was arrested on one count of theft and one count of exploitation of an older person, both category “B” felonies.

A criminal complaint says Adams was designated as the caregiver of her father John Lindblade and his estate.

It also says as a caregiver, she was entrusted with funds for the limited purpose of providing for her father’s care. However, she allegedly subsequently converted her father’s funds for her own personal use.

The complaint says the crimes were committed between April and December, 2017.

The State of Nevada v. Adams criminal complaint represents the sixth elder exploitation criminally charged by the Office of the Nevada Attorney General.

He was 93 and she was so impatient she couldn't wait for his natural demise and her inheritance? It's sickening

Her father (my father) passed away April 7, 2018. She wanted furlough to attend our father's services...her request denied!

Her father, my dad, died April 7, 2018. She was denied furlough to attend our dad's services. Vicky Jo Adams allowed our dad to sit for hours in his own feces, used lies and intimidation to convince my dad that we were the "trouble-makers". I don't understand why there are no Elder Abuse/ Neglect charges?

We are sorry to hear of the passing of your Dad, Jeanie.

I would suggest you consider joining an affiliate of NASGA's which concentrates on raising awareness of elder abuse of all kinds. It's called The Earn Project: http://www.theearnproject.org/

You can't help your Dad, but you can help others. And helping others helps you too.

She wasn't denied furlough..it was approved. Per Gloria Teunisse, her brother, Ed Lindblade had the restraining order lifted so that she could attend the service on Friday, April 20, 2018. Her public defender was calling numerous family members to arrange transportation for her. She didn't go because she didn't have a ride there. Her furlough hours were to be from 11:00 to 5:00.

She doesn't tell the whole story..only what she wants people to know to make herself look good. She is anything but, over 50 years old and expected her parents (now deceased) to take care of her and bail her out whenever she got in trouble! She is disgusting.

Michael is right. She is a POS.

jeanie Lindblade said...

what is disgusting is NOT attending your own parents funeral services. Guess what OUF stans for!? Did you ever find Meekus Mile? Did you have fun tying your sister to a tree when she was five?

Michael Lindblade said...

What is disgusting is that we weren't told about either service until the last minute..we were told not to argue or discuss any other matter.The three of you..you know which three claimed that I had no contact with them in over 10 years. Your mother and father contacted me on several occasions to talk about what you guys had done. They were tired of it. All you guys did was live off of them. How many bail bonds did they get for you and only you? How many times did your mother pay to get your record expunged? All dad did was complain to me that your son wasn't a true Lindblade..you had his last name changed. Oh..when was the last time any of you three went to the cemetery? Obviously never..because if you guys had..you guys should have noticed that the information for my father was wrong on the headstone! That being the dob and dod were wrong. It's sad, especially when your brother lives 45-60 minutes away from the cemetery. Don't even bother trying to get it fixed. I have already taken care of it.

Michael Lindblade said...

Jeanie, you know what else is sad..you talk about me not going to the funerals..you and your son didn't go to the cemetery for your mother's funeral..you only went to the service at the mortuary. Then you and your son left. That's being real supportive to dad..not! The three of you treated Vicky like crap and wouldn't help her. At least I can say that we work for what we have and didn't live off of them. You guys don't know what it is to work.

I was there when Dad called you to inform you your Mother had passed away. Joyce said you were in the shower. I watched Dad sit by the phone and waited for your phone call...THAT NEVER CAME. As far as the headstone on Dad's grave is concerned it is accurate. You may want to check your records more closely. I visit Dad and Mom at least three times a year...not too mention Dad's brothers Frank and Albert who are also buried there.

Also who do you think planned Mom's funeral service. I wasn't there for the internment because I had to be at Carson Valley Inn to set up for her Memorial.

As far as jobs are concerned we all have jobs...the only sibling I know not doing her job is Vicky. Maybe you two can take her in in December 2023!

This will be my final comment...You showed up to Douglas County Court house wearing shorts and flip flops. You wanted Vicky Jo Adams to continue providing care for your father when you saw the WElls Fargo Bank statements...78 times she abandoned our father to go to Bodines Casino to steal his money. Surveillance tapes do not lie...WE SAW Vicky (the high-roller) on those tapes cashing checks up to $3700 at a time. She abandoned your father and forced him to lay in his adult diaper filled with feces and urine numerous occassions. On November 20, 2018 she went to Bodine's 4 times and stole more than $16000; then she had the nerve to go back the next day for more!! That is disgusting and you are delusional. You are supposed to be an Eagle Scout with morals and values...
Hey, remember the "booger on the wall mystery" in your bathroom?
How 'bout putting an ALPHA BETA bag over your little sister's head and tying her to a tree?
Remember when you used to tell us, "GO TELL THAT MOP IN THE BLUE FIREBIRD I'M NOT HOME".
I am glad Vicky's got your support...she is going to need it when she is released from prison.

jeanie Lindblade said...

Your posts read like a comic book...FICTION! Vicky is going to need your support when she is released in 2023!

jeanie Lindblade said...

The venom and hatred you have for our family, Joyce It’s so obvious you two know nothing! Since you and Vicky were so close...why didn’t you help her and give her support. Because you were not welcome in their house! Speaking of houses, you were given a beautiful home and you let your dogs ruin it. Then you ransacked before you left. Mom took pictures of the damage you caused.As far as Jack is concerned...he obviously meant more to dad and mom than you two! Vicky is a liar. Cheat. And thief! She owes the trust money and will be responsible for reimbursing the trust. She will need your support in 2023.

Jeanie, this is a site for elder abuse..not your personal drama.
Refer to Lindblade vs Dyer 322F3d.1178 9th Circuit Court of Appeals 2003. YOU committed perjury to get a loan for money while you had signed a promissory note between you and your parents that you didn't have recorded..this came out when Tom divorced you. You cost your parents a lot of money to get that house back. That was when it was put in the trust due to your dishonesty and lack of morals. Your mother and father called me while I was at work and told me all about it. They were going to have you prosecuted but they told me that they were too ashamed and embarrassed by what you had done. You bag on Vicky..at least she admits what she did and is paying for it. You are and always will be in denial. Like Claremont Police department advised us..look at the premise reports..DENY and DEFLECT. You are the one who is delusional.

As far as that house in Covina, my husband, kids and myself were told on more than one occasion that it was ours to do what we wanted. We made it beautiful when we put a lot of money into it..ie..block walls, interior upgrades, etc. We were lied to and you know it. Your parents threatened us and that is why we left. Get over it..you are like the bad dream that never goes away.

HEY BIG 🤬 RED, LET US PRAY....PROVERB 20:20-21
and I quote, "If someone curses their father or mother, their lamp will be snuffed out in pitch darkness." And continues with, "An inheritance claimed too soon will not be blessed at the end." 😇

So it looks like Mom and Dad got the last laugh!
"Hogan" is green with envy🤢.

Hey MOP...In California, for a plaintiff to be entitled to damages, the defendant must have acted with a degree of legal fault. The level of fault required in California will differ depending on whether the plaintiff was a public or private figure. If the plaintiff is a private individual, it is only necessary that the plaintiff establish that the defendant was negligent in making the defamatory statement.

You are only hurting yourself...and going to get yourself deeper in debt!!!

Hey MOP,
Be prepared to be served a lawsuit for libel...

We just received notice that PAROLE was DENIED for NDOC OFFENDER #1206742, Vicky Jo Adams. She is a fool...thinking she could fool the educated and experienced Nevada Parole Board Commissioners. She showed no remorse and continued to lie about what she did with the more than $264,000 she stole in less than nine months from our father. SHE LIED and PAROLE DENIED!
