Involuntary Redistribution of Assets (IRA)

SAN DIEGO DA PROSECUTES ONE CASE AND IGNORES THE NEXT?

WHY DOES THE SAN DIEGO DA PROSECUTE ONE CASE AND NOT THE OTHER?

A twenty year old man entered the home of a 76 year old woman who left him in to use her telephone.  He attacked her, choked her and badly injured her.  He then abducted her in her car and further assaulted her.The police were called and the DA. Deputy DA Paul Greenwood prosecuted the 20 year old  for attempted murder, torture and kidnapping and faced charges of life in prison.  















Just months before...A man in his 80's (OUR DAD)was the victim of financial elder abuse by four individuals...his daughters discovered this and called the Sheriff and Adult Protective Services.  Instead of the assistance they asked for, he was placed in a conservatorship as a ward of the Public Guardian despite estate plans and irrevocable trust, POAs.   He was put into Merrill Gardens Assisted Living facility and told it was a temporary hotel while his house was being fixed up. The Public Guardian got him to sign a Petition saying he wanted to be a ward of the county with the Public Guardian as conservator. (It took at least four documented trips to his room before they got him to sign.)  

One night, he was found on the floor at 3:00 AM bloody, bruised, black eyes and what the caregiver described as bruises across his neck that look like someone tried to strangle him. Public Guardian knew about it and knew about the following 11 times in less than 9 months that he was found in the same condition.  The last time killed him. The Public Guardian  knew about the theft of over $300,000 and how he had been found repeatedly and taken to ER. 

Nothing was done about it...the daughters called the Sheriff...The DA did nothing

WHY DOES THE DA ACT ON THE FIRST CASE AND DO NOTHING ON THE SECOND CASE?  

BECAUSE THE SECOND VICTIM WAS A WARD OF THE SAN DIEGO PUBLIC GUARDIAN IN A CONSERVATORSHIP...   HE WAS A CASH COW...HANDS OFF...NO ONE QUESTIONS THE PUBLIC GUARDIAN...

The San Diego Public Guardian, with the help of Adult Protective Services hunt for elderly citizens with money to force into conservatorships (guardianships) as wards of the Public Guardian...then they drain, rather than conserve the elderly person's estate...billing for their "services" and allowing attorneys and even elder abusers to do the same.  The District Attorney looks the other way...everyone looks the other way...and if there is a family member or friend or neighbor who sees these crimes and tries to help the elderly person- to stop this abuse...to free them from the greedy hands of these so called "protective" government agencies, they quickly get rid of them by any means possible.  This happens in San Diego and other cities in California and in other states.  It is well documented, but gets little attention...

From Houston Texas to San Diego California...and around the country, elderly citizens with money are being railroaded into guardianships and conservatorships by for profit  guardians and in San Diego, by the Public Guardian!!!  

PUBLIC GUARDIAN'S DOG EATS GUARDIANSHIP RECORDS...BURP

WE ARE STILL WAITING  FOR THE SAN DIEGO PUBLIC GUARDIAN ELLEN SCHMEDING TO GIVE US ALL OF OUR DAD'S PERSONAL AND FINANCIAL RECORDS...AND IF THE COUNTY DOG ATE THEM...THEN PUMP HIS STOMACH.  

The  laws require the Public Guardian acting as Conservator of the Estate of an elderly ward to release all records in their possession from before, during and after the conservatorship has ended.  We have requested them over and over and Public Guardian Ellen Schmeding can't seem to find them.    Public Guardian could not find or allow access to any receipts or records that would back up the fraudulent Final Accounting submitted to the court without us being present or even having our objections considered.  Public Guardian lied to the Judge and told him we had no objections and no interest in the matter of the Final Accounting, when in fact they had a copy served on them.  A copy was filed with the court but we learned much later it was misfiled in another case file.  Our Dad's Irrevocable B Trust and his named Successor Trustees, his two daughters was never considered by the court because the Public Guardian's County Counsel Attorney George Seikaly lied to the Judge and told him there was no trust.  The copy of the Trust filed with the county when the Trust was created strangely disappeared.  Documents disappearing  all over the place when the Adult Protective Services and Public Guardian and others target an elderly San Diego County resident...a cash cow that needs their "protection".

GREATEST GENERATION ASSETS LOOTED-LOU ANN ANDERSON

EXCELLENT...EXCELLENT....EXCELLENT...

Where the looters and the poachers stalk prey–Lou Ann Anderson

https://personalliberty.com/where-the-looters-and-the-poachers-stalk-prey/

Posted on October 16, 2015 by US~Observer Staff

“The ‘Greatest Generation’ is the greatest generation to exploit.” This quote by Chayo Reyes, a retired Los Angeles Police Department specialist in elder fraud, from a DVD titled “Saving Our Parents” appropriately depicts increasing, yet often unreported, activities targeting today’s elderly and their families.

The assets of older Americans are being looted via actions in which probate instruments such as powers of attorney, wills, trusts or guardianships are used to gain control of property. These actions evolve into an involuntary redistribution of assets (IRA) as ultimate financial resource distribution becomes contrary to the asset owner’s intentions.

Family members are sometimes IRA perpetrators, but non-family individuals can come into an older person’s life with equally damaging results. It can be a premeditated effort or an “opportunity knocks” act. And don’t ever think the elderly don’t exploit each other! A senior woman with no money, an inflated sense of entitlement and a life expectancy of another 10 years or more can easily become a financial predator. The exploited elderly person may not understand (or live to see) the actual IRA action. Instead, honest and responsible people in the target’s life may be left to deal with the aftermath and even become secondary targets — especially if they are heirs/beneficiaries for whom assets are rightfully designated and/or are obstacles to an IRA practitioner’s ultimate success.

Expensive, prolonged legal entanglements as well as intimidation and harassment are common tools used to pressure heirs/beneficiaries to cede rights of inheritance if outright looting is not easily accomplishable.

Because the pool of those willing to exploit the elderly is endless, it is important to be aware of places and venues where today’s predators search for potential victims. The list might be surprising, but remember: The guise of community respectability, professional credibility, even enhanced morality or religiosity can be important entry points into the life of a predator’s next mark. With that, here is a list of where the looters and the poachers stalk prey:

• Senior centers
• Government-sponsored lectures (especially through departments/agencies specializing in eldercare, aging)
• Civic groups (Kiwanis, Rotary, etc.)
• Churches, synagogues
• Retirement communities, homeowners’ associations
• Support groups (church-sponsored and otherwise)
• Medical facilities, nursing homes, assisted living facilities
• Estate planning seminars, sales presentations (beware “free food” ploys)
• Consultations with “professionals” (lawyers, caregivers, accountants, social workers, etc.)
• Any places that cater to an older clientele (gyms, dance clubs, libraries, restaurants, etc.)

Anecdotal evidence tells of probate judges attending meetings at senior centers and other community venues ostensibly providing seniors with “prepare now for future needs” information. A forum apparently frequented by individuals with Connecticut probate experience depicts a system in which public officials troll for prospective cases to meet the challenge of operating in a state with numerous probate courts constantly vying for justification of their court’s existence. And though Connecticut residents may experience more visible aggression in these pursuits, similar reports are heard across the country.

Meetings sponsored by anyone — government agencies, churches, civic groups, support groups, whomever — can be beneficial for those looking to poach property of the unsuspecting. An IRA practitioner might be the featured speaker or he/she might be in the audience looking to “befriend” unsuspecting marks. Gatherings put on by seemingly respectable organizations can be viewed as safe havens fostering greater trust and openness to those with whom personal contact is made — a point well known to poachers on the prowl. Support groups can be especially rich in potential targets as the group’s commonality (grief, caregivers, divorce, etc.) may increase their emotionalism and vulnerability — another point not lost on IRA stalkers.

A 2005 Los Angeles Times series titled “Guardians for profit” reported:

Conservators find clients by sponsoring breakfasts at senior centers and networking at legal luncheons. Nursing homes call when residents become too addled to pay the rent, wanting a conservator to write checks for them. Hospitals call when patients have outlasted their insurance, hoping that a conservator will move them somewhere else.

Conservators, also known as guardians, use probate procedures to gain control over an individual’s personal liberty and property. Though the Times articles focus on California, these cases are not uncommon elsewhere.

Stories regarding IRA cases within Florida’s probate system were detailed by the St. Petersburg Times in a 1994 Pulitzer prize-winning series called “Final Indignities.” And though published 21 years ago, the same stories are heard today — from Florida and almost every other state.

IRA predators are a fact of today’s life. Due to the wealth transfer getting ready to occur in the next 15 or so years, IRA actions will likely skyrocket. People think proper estate planning will protect them — wrong! People think they don’t have enough assets to be a target — wrong!!

There is no inoculation from the threat of IRA. There is no avoidance of being a potential target. This information is not offered as a broad-based indictment of all organizations and entities, but awareness should exist on the part of those hosting and attending community events. Knowledge of today’s predatory landscape and recognition of the places haunted by asset looters and property poachers will provide an upper hand. And as forewarned is forearmed, stay alert!
