In every State, elders and vulnerable adults are targeted by the "protection" industry for profit.   Probate courts can remove all or some of an elder's civil rights, leaving guardians and those who work with them in control the elder's life and assets.

  • Loopholes created by the law have allowed a criminal element into a system that has few protections for elders in place.
  • There is little or no monitoring in many counties of what happens to elders and their assets under guardianship.
  • There is no oversight by any entity outside of the court to ensure that it's proceedings are fair.   

For predators in the business of trafficking elders, it's all about the money.                    

  • Tonight, guest Marcia Southwick will be joining me to talk about the people who work under color of law.
  • Who are they?
  • Who do they target, and why?
  • How do they use the court system?
  • And how do they find their marks?
  • Is there any way to recognize them? And how can you avoid them?                                 Tune in for answers. Calls will be taken during the second half of the show.
