Human Trafficking & Guardianship Abuse
TS Radio with guest Sara Harvey/Guardianship abuse - Apr 18,2012
Sara Harvey returns to TS Radio to discuss the ongoing abuse of her husband Gary Harvey, as the result of a home accident 5 years ago. Gary has been held as a virtual prisoner while the hospital, attorneys, judges and predatory guardian avail them selves of more than 950,000 per year in bloated hospital and doctor charges. In addition, they have seized all of Garys Social Security checks and his VA pension. The hospital via its attorneys and the probate court, all of which are linked by the same law firm, have fought Sara Harvey and prevented her from obtaining a second opinion for her husband or from transporting him to another facility where he might recieve better care and an unbiased medical opinion on his current state of health. This could happen to any one of us, especially if you have assets.

TS Radio: Linda Kincaid/ Guardianship Abuse in California - Jun 11,2012
Linda Kincaid joins the show to talk of two cases of elder abuse in California, one involving her mother. Bio Linda Kincaid has a Master of Public Health from UC Berkeley. She has been an occupational safety consultant in Silicon Valley since 1990. Linda became an elder advocate after her mother (Carol Hahn) was abducted in 2010, then imprisoned and isolated from loved ones for 15 months. Linda's mom is now allowed visitors, but an abusive conservator still denies needed medical care. Since 2010, Linda has learned that elder abuse of the type experienced by her mom is alarmingly common. As well as advocating for her mom, Linda is also advocating for a San Jose victim of a very similar situation. The Santa Clara Public Guardian has isolated Gisela (Giselle) Riordan for over two years. As of today, Gisela is not allowed visitors, phone calls, or mail. Linda will discuss the parallels between these two cases. Linda's mom is the victim of an abusive private conservator. Gisela is a victim of an abusive public guardian. In each case, a residential care facility for the elderly is enforcing unlawful isolation ordered by the abusive conservator. As time allows, Linda will also address probate laws in California that give the Public Guardian unconstitutional power over conservatees and establish a financial conflict of interest.

Elder Abuse & Isolaton of Gisela Riordan in San Jose - Aug 15,2012
Linda Kincaid updates us on the condition of Gisela Riordan who is still being held isolation in violation of California laws prohibiting isolation of the elderly. Gisela Riordan, 84, is wrongfully imprisoned and unlawfully isolated at Villa Fontana, a residential care facility at 5555 Prospect Road in San Jose. 408-255-5555 For over two years, Gisela has been denied her right to visitation and phone calls. Convicted felons are guaranteed the right to visit with friends and family. Those felons are allowed phone calls and mail. But Gisela, who has committed no crime, is denied those basic comforts. Gisela faces each day believing she has been forgotten and abandoned. When I briefly gained access to Gisela in April 2012, she told me she prays every night for God to take her. She was painfully lonely, sobbing and clutching my arm, begging me not to forget her. Gisela made me promise to come see her again. Villa Fontana has prevented my keeping that promise.

Cash cows: The Targeting of disabled adults - Aug 20,2012
The elderly with assets are not the only targets of predatory guardians and corrupt probate courts. The targeting of disabled adults is also a growing problem. These individuals can be worth huge amounts of cash once inside the system. Dr. Robert Fettgather has fought a seven year battle over his adult son, David. According to the courts, Dr. Fettgather is a "legal stranger" to his son and has been denied contact with him since his kidnapping and imprisonment in Alta Regional Center. BIO: Dr Robert Fettgather- mental health professional since 1976, psychiatric technician, learning disabilities specialist, clinical psychologist. Advocate And Activist: vulnerable populations have been increasingly marginalized, objectified, used as sources of profit and power, then released over the edges of society. Systemic failure of government, non profit and profit organizations to assist vulnerable persons is pervasive.
