Asking Eric: How am I the ‘bad guy’ after family stole $100,000 and rings from my mother?
More than $100,000 was embezzled by the grandson during the mother's terminal illness, prompting a guardian ad-litem to manage her finances until her death.
- A state-appointed guardian ad-litem took over the mother's finances immediately after the family found the mother's grandson allegedly embezzled more than $100,000.
- The mother insisted on staying at home with paid care, was terminally ill, and due to macular degeneration, Mom's grandson was added as a signer and volunteered to stay, gaining financial access.
- Lydia, caregiver hired for more than 25 years, said she "accidentally" took the mother's rings to a pawn shop for appraisal and then mailed them back.
- Six months later, the mother passed away quietly at home, and R. Eric Thomas advised the letter-writer that the relationship isn't working and it sounds like it's time to separate.
- The syndicated column by R. Eric Thomas framed the case for readers, with the letter-writer reporting betrayal and 'no contact' as the girlfriend defers decisions to her 50-year-old son.
