The power of attorney is paying 80 thousand dollars to two men to take care of them. The wife can do some things but needs help, she informed her sisterof 85 that she hadn't hada bath or shower for a month and a half. She was to ashamed to ask for help. He pays the men with cash some no one can check where the money has got. They just sold 250 thousand dollars of land yesterday without her knowing about it..He is keeping her in the dark.

IF the Attorney if Fact (a POA is the document, not the person) has misused their authority, the courts can revoke the POA and the Attorney in Fact could be liable to the couple. As someone else said, running out of money does not necessarily mean there has been mismanagement.

Can you show that it went to things not in the interest of the couple? Just because they had millions doesn't mean it hasn't been spent on things like health care, nursing care, etc. Also add in debts the couple had, taxes, etc and it's easy to see where it could go. I point this out because if you just are making accusations without knowing what it's been spent on you may get sued yourself.

You must be able to prove it. Any paper work,copies of checks,witnesses ect. Talk to the people let them know what you think is going on. Will they listen to you? Do they have any family? Possibally get in touch with elder affairs in your town. Do they have a Doctor or social worker anyone that helps them.

you can report that to elder abuse and they will take care of that. go on line and look up elder abuse and they have an 800 number you can call and you don't have to give your name. they will check into it so nothing else happens.
