#Lisa Siegal

5/8/24.

Living Clipboards are a Dunedin/Wellington New Zealand group comprising members from The 3Ds and Look Blue Go Purple (Denise Roughan), Mark Williams (MarineVille) and Jim Abbott (Ghost Club). They really do sound like a sum of their previous bands and then some. At times I can also hear Hamish Kilgour/The Great Unwashed.

Which is interesting since I also saw that Paul Kean posted a song from The Archers - one of his many side projects. This side project consisted of Hamish and Lisa Siegal (Mad Scene) and Kaye Woodward and Paul Kean (The Bats, Minisnap). There is only a single track currently available, but Paul promises to keep cleaning up the songs which were were recorded "one cold winter".

Living Clipboards was mastered by Tex Houston and is available from Burning Log, a label based in Wellington, New Zealand.

loled to myself this morning at how everyone on earth makes priscilla out to be a vicious heartless golddigger and decided to do 1 second of research into the matter to conclude that as expected, the internet is hysterical and off base. to me, she seems like she’s just out there trying to do her best and handle her enormous life.

disclosure: i did this for my own knowledge because i was curious. i’m not out here trying to engage trolls or tell anyone what to think.

read that she was really hesitant abt priscilla but ultimately thought coppola did enough research and made it “spot on”. she cried when she saw the film. she elaborated by saying that when you live with someone so famous during a crucial part of their life you go through many ups and downs and experience their struggles and fears alongside them. also that all of her/their privacy is hard to give up and hard to share so she doesn’t want to give out too much because she wants some of it for herself - that’s theirs and theirs alone. which, ultimately leads someone with common sense to believe (who didn’t already assume) that the elvis & me novel (and priscilla) are just the most dramatic snippets of their relationship (without lots of context).

she also went on to say that she vowed not to remarry as long as elvis was alive because she didn’t think he could handle it - and not only did she not, but she also kept that promise long after his death. saying she never wanted to remarry after him, that no one “could ever match him”.

i also knew next to nothing about lisa marie and the drama surrounding the estate and/or their relationship - but again, one quick search and applying my years of doing estate work as a paralegal makes it clear that priscilla was challenging the validity of a purported amendment made in 2016 which removed her (and barry siegal) as co-trustees (and instituted lisa’s children instead) to the graceland trust. which fine, lisa probably did want that, but it was stated that in the amendment, lisa’s signature was not her “usual signature”, her name was misspelled, and the amendment was never given to priscilla during lisa’s lifetime which was an expressed term of the trust. it was also never witnessed or notarized. so, given that, questioning its legitimacy is an entirely expected thing to do. it’s hardly insidious 😂. especially during such an emotionally difficult time. a contract is a contract. even if lisa did want to change the doc without priscilla knowing, she was legally required to give it to her and she didn’t. also, a settlement of 1 mil plus a graceland burial is hardly “gouging” of her daughter/granddaughter’s money. graceland is worth what? 718 million? and ppl complain about priscilla getting some money after keeping elvis’ legacy alive and graceland relevant for the past 50 yrs? lordy. not only that but the attorney for riley even stated at the proceeding’s conclusion that everyone is unified and happy and ready to move forward.

but funny how the narrative of “evil priscilla sues her granddaughter” became so popular. this instance is the most uneventful, run of the mill thing lol. obviously we don’t know the absolute truth or facts of the situation (and i did not look up the proceedings), but if a document isn’t witnessed and notarized it’s always ground for suspicion. also, if someone’s signature isn’t their usual signature, it arises the question of coercion or signing not in your right mind. so, like i said, entirely expected and nbd.

priscilla is also human and fallible, so i’m sure she’s made mistakes, bad business dealings or even acted recklessly or spitefully over the course of her lifetime, but she continually speaks to how much she loved/loves elvis, lisa and the family legacy. she clearly still burns a candle for elvis and does her best to keep things moving forward and alive and relevant. i don’t blame her for wanting to make sure things are secure and in order as she gets older.

i also know practically nothing about lisa, but it seems like she was troubled (?) to some extent (she reminds me of britney spears a little in that way), so i’m sure some of priscilla’s “controlling and hovering” over her life was misconstrued protectiveness and burden-bearing. i’m sure mistakes were made, but i highly doubt she was the manipulative vulture ppl make her out to be. (it’s like the britney situation - everyone advocated for her “freedom” when in reality she’s clearly ill and her state rn is pretty questionable imo).

i also don’t blame priscilla for not having issue with priscilla being made. it’s controversial but it’s 2023 and she probably figured it was timely and likely to get good reception. she’s surely had an incredibly difficult life, and wanting some of her truth (the ugly truth) to also be known and added to the legacy must be validating. because elvis was a flawed person, a product of his time, and likely very cruel at times.

anyway those are my two cents and i think the internet is a plague. not looking to engage stans or fact police, just wanted to get my thoughts out there. not tagging.

The Lincoln’s lawyer Season 2 - Part. 1 : Quotes

“- When that guy got shot, I thought it would be a disaster, but it turned out to be a gold mine. There is no such thing as bad publicity.” (Lorna - Episode 1)

“- You gotta strike while the iron’s hot. (Mickey) - Maybe. But in my experience, fame is like crack.” (Izzy - Episode 1)

“- I’m sorry. There. Send. Done.” (Episode 1)

“Well, it is LA. This city’s always been in love with whatever’s next.” (Mickey - Episode 1)

“So I’m thinking misdemeanor trespass, time served, plus my client would generously agree to pay for the window. Or you can roll the dice at trial, but then the story would be that someone’s drugging people, and the DA’s too busy going after innocent victims to do anything about it.” (Mickey - Episode 1)

“I went to see Bob. Tried to see whether I could get another one of my cases back. He offered me second chair as a courtesy. Felt more like a “fuck you”, but who’s counting?” (Maggie - Episode 1)

“He’s got the magic bullet in his hands. He knows who the real killer is, and he can’t use it. Yeah, but there are exceptions to confidentiality, right? This new client is a dangerous killer. (Mickey) - So? For defense attorneys, that’s half their clientele.” (Legal Siegal - Episode 2)

“- The more you live in someone’s shadow, kid, the longer it takes to cast your own.” (Legal Siegal - Episode 2)

“You wanna stay in jail? (Mickey) - No. (Glory Days) - Okay. Then help me help you, Glory.” (Mickey - Episode 2)

“- There’s nothing complicated about it. It’s just money. You gotta get to your dinner service, and I’m in the middle of something, too, so you got my number if something comes up. (Mickey) - Yeah, well, don’t tempt me. I might use it.” (Episode 2)

“- But the key to all of it is maintaining the confidentiality. You can’t tell anybody what you’re doing beforehand, especially not the police. You just point them in the right direction and get out of the way. Well, as long as the hypothetical lawyer crosses all his Ts, what’s the hypothetical client gonna do about it?” (Legal Siegal - Episode 2)

“- How was I supposed to know you couldn’t help yourself from going after the last person who could identify you? (Mickey) - You set me up. (Russell) - No, Russell. You set yourself up. You have one big disadvantage. You’re insane. It makes you very predictable. So, I’m sorry, but you’re gonna have to find yourself another lawyer. Oh, and Russell, just so you know, I have clients in every prison in California. Very loyal clients. If anything were to happen to my family, I’d make sure a few of them pay you a visit.” (Mickey - Episode 2)

“He was right, you know, when he told me an innocent man is the worst kind of client there is.” (Mickey) - He was half right. Not if you win.” (Legal Siegal - Episode 2)

“- Dan Daly. He’s got a full calendar, but I don’t know. I could make a call. (Mickey) - You’d do that for me? Well, look at that. Lawyers are good for something, after all. (...) Christmas is over, Counselor. And I ain’t Santa.” (The police inspector - Episode 3)

“- You’ll have to get the rest the old-fashioned way. Shouldn’t be long. They’re expediting the arraignment.” (Episode 3)

“- You believe me, right? (Lisa) Lisa, I’m your attorney right now. I’ll tell you what I tell every client. It doesn’t matter what I think. It’s irrelevant. (Mickey) - Fuck, Mickey. Are you serious? (Lisa) - Don’t talk to anyone. That means in the jail phone too. Calls are recorded. Just say, “I’m innocent of the charges, and on the advice of my attorney, I can’t talk about my case.” (Mickey - Episode 3)

“- Oh my God ! Please tell me you’r not taking the case. You two have seen each other naked. Conflict of interest much? Hello? (Lorna) - As long as our intimate relationship stays in the past, there’s not conflict. (Mickey) - Been there, done that. But this is a whole new lever of messy. (Lorna) - It’s not ideal, but this is a high-profile case, Lorna. I have to entertain it.” (Mickey - Episode 3)

“- I don’t know what you’re talking about, but I do know your guy was guilty. - That’s not the point. (Mickey) - I’m sorry, that is exactly the point.  - I defended my client and got him a not-guilty verdict. Last time I checked, that’s the job.” (Mickey - Episode 3)

“- You know, you choose high-profile clients for a reason. You love all eyes being trained on you and only you.” (Episode 3)

“- Where did you get the money, Henry? (Mickey) - You have no idea how lucrative podcasts can be, do you? (Henry) - I know a con man when I see one.” (Mickey - Episode 3)

“- You said barely. Feels to me like you’re hiding something.” (Episode 3)

“- You think this is gonna work? It’s the appearance of impropriety.” (Episode 3)

“- You know, you still haven’t said if you believe I’m innocent. (Lisa) - Lisa, I... Come on. I told you it doesn’t matter what I believe. My job is to get you a not-guilty verdict, no matter what. It’s subjective, granted, but I get feelings about people.” (Mickey - Episode 4)

“- You know this, Mickey. And I just have a feeling that there’s something off about Lisa. (Lorna) - You don’t think that might be your bias coming out? Luckily, your feelings are not admissible in court, Lorna. (Mickey) - What are you saying? (Lorna) - I’m not saying. I’m asking. (Mickey - Episode 4)

“- Conceptual, but still art.” (Mickey - Episode 4)

“- I’m not an art critic, Angelica. I’m your lawyer.” (Mickey - Episode 4)

“- I don’t know. I’ll try to sell it.” (Episode 4)

“- My advice would be that you do because it’s one time and one time only.” (Episode 4)

“- You have until tomorrow, then it’s off the table. If the justice system were that simple, innocent people would never be accused. Your trial is a gamble.” (Mickey - Episode 4)

“- For a lawyer, a good suit is like a coat of armor, and Gustavo makes the best armor in town.” (Mickey - Episode 5)

“- But what if it helps? Makes people have empathy for her. “Whoever controls the media controls the mind.”” (Izzy - Episode 5)

“- You engineered this to make her show her cards. You can’t complain now because you don’t like your hand.” (The Judge - Episode 5)

“- How can you defend me if you think I’m guilty? The jury’s gonna see it on you just like I do. (Lisa) - I defend clients accused of crimes all the time, guilty or innocent. It doesn’t matter. I do everything in my power to win. (Mickey) - So now I’m just a client to you. (Lisa) - That’s not what I meant. (Mickey - Episode 5)

Books, Books, Books! (aka, mid-year book freakout)

I normally only post my 5-star list to facebook and I might also do that here, but I wanted to do something extra. 

I don’t want to say how many books I’ve read so far this year because it’s frankly a little embarrassing because the number is so high.

Here we go!

best book you’ve read so far? Ship of Theseus by Doug Dorst. It’s literally indescribable.

best sequel you’ve read so far? We Free the Stars by Hafsah Faizal

new releases you want to read? Tokyo Dreaming by Emiko Jean, The Hacienda by Isabel Canas (which I just got notified came in on hold), Siren Queen by Nghi Vo, Queerly Beloved by Susie Dumond, Improbable Magic for Cynical Witches by Kate Scelsa, Remarkably Bright Creatures by Shelby Van Pelt, The Change by Kirsten Miller, This is Not the Real World by Anna Carey, Out of the Blue by Jason June, Yerba Buena by Nina LaCour, Counterfeit by Kirsten Chen, A Little Bit Country by Brian Kennedy, and The Key to Deceit by Ashley Weaver

 most anticipated to still be released in 2022? Babel by R.F. Kuang, The Ballad of Never After by Stephanie Garber, Foul Lady Fortune by Chloe Gong, Bloodmarked by Tracey Deonn, and The Shattered City by Lisa Maxwell

biggest disappointment? Hotel Magnifique by Emily Taylor. I heard it was so good and it’s a beautiful book, just poorly written

biggest surprise? Macbeth by Jo Nesbo. I finally finished the Hogarth Shakespeare series, and a lot of them were mediocre, but I was really impressed with this one.

new favorite author? Amanda Bestor-Siegal (The Caretakers)

new fictional crush? Claire from Delilah Green Doesn’t Care

new favorite character? Rene Delacroix from Sailing By Orion’s Star by Katie Crabb

a book that made you cry? The House in the Cerulean Sea by TJ Klune

a book that made you happy? Count Your Lucky Stars by Alexandria Bellefleur

most beautiful book you’ve bought? Either Fairyopolis (found for $3 while thrifting) or the MinaLima Harry Potters

what do you want to read before 2022 ends? Too many books to list! Everything on my Goodreads list that hasn’t come out yet, and everything on my almost 300 book Google doc TBR

Edvard Munch’s “The Scream,” from 1893, is one of the world’s most famous paintings, but for years art historians have mostly ignored a tiny inscription, written in pencil, at the upper left corner of its frame, reading: “Could only have been painted by a madman.”

“It’s been examined now very carefully, letter by letter, and word by word, and it’s identical in every way to Munch’s handwriting,” said Mai Britt Guleng, the museum’s curator of old masters and modern paintings, who was in charge of the research. “So there is no more doubt.”

Munch painted four versions of “The Scream” from 1893 to 1910, depicting a skeletal figure on a bridge holding his face while screaming in agony. The first version, painted in tempera on panel with pastels, is the one owned by the National Museum, and is the only one that bears this inscription.

In his diary, Munch wrote that the painting was inspired by “a gust of melancholy.” It has become a symbol of existential angst and called the Mona Lisa of modern art [...].

Munch probably wrote the sentence on his painting in 1895, according to Guleng, after his exhibition of new work at the Blomqvist gallery in Oslo. During a debate about the exhibition at the University of Oslo’s Students Association one night, a medical student, Johan Scharffenberg said the artwork gave him reason to question the artist’s mental state, calling Munch abnormal and a “madman.” Munch was deeply hurt, said Jacobsen, and wrote about it even decades later.

Guleng believes the inscription is written with irony and reflects both pain at being attacked and fear of being regarded as mentally ill. “By writing this inscription in the clouds, he took possession, in a way, or he took control of how he was to be perceived and understood,” she said.

Healthy Boston Woman is Medically Kidnapped and Forced onto Pysch Drugs Resulting in her Death

by Health Impact News/MedicalKidnap.com Staff

Another Boston area woman's life has been cut short after elder “protective” services and guardians became involved. The story of Alice Julian's medical kidnapping is shocking and horrifying in that it shows the almost omnipotent power of the state to override the decisions made by a citizen in preparation for their latter years.

Alice Julian had a strong will to live. She was described as an “exceptionally healthy” 89 year old woman before being seized and drugged against her will. Her daughter Pamela Julian fought valiantly to save her life, but the strength of a group of Guardians, lawyers, and Jewish Family and Children's Services proved to be too great a hurdle to overcome.

She died on the morning of January 9, 2018. This was 4 days after the death of Beverley Finnegan.

Pamela Julian told Health Impact News that she learned that people in guardianships have no rights, and that once they are in that system:

There's no way out.

Jewish Family and Children's Services was involved with Beverley's medical kidnapping as well as that of Marvin Siegal and Mary Frank, all of whose stories we have covered at Health Impact News.

See:

Beverley Finnegan – Medical Murder? Massachusetts Woman Medically Kidnapped from Her Home Dies After Being Denied Medical Intervention

Marvin Siegal – Medical Murder? Massachusetts Woman Medically Kidnapped from Her Home Dies After Being Denied Medical Intervention

Mary Frank – Public Warning: Boston is a Cesspool of Adult Medical Kidnappings

Alice Julian worked as a legal secretary until she was 70 years old. She knew her way around legal procedures. Like attorney Marvin Siegal, Mrs. Julian sought to have legal protections in place to ensure that her wishes would be followed. She appointed her daughter Pamela as her health care proxy, but her wishes were overridden by the state once Elder Services became involved.

Mrs. Julian's story is recounted in The Boston Broadside by Lisa Siegel Belanger, Esq. She writes:

In actuality, the initial triggering factor leading to Alice Julian's death is the involvement of elder “protective” services in August of 2017-which occurred because certain disgruntled adult children made a false report of abuse to Central Elder Services against the sibling who Alice Julian had appointed in writing to be her health care proxy which was witnessed by a registered nurse.

Belanger says that “this scenario is overwhelmingly common place” throughout the United States. In this respect, it is not unlike cases involving Child Protective Services, where government agents are brought into families because of the complaints of a disgruntled relative or neighbor. Such a complaint can have drastic consequences for individual autonomy and can destroy lives, as appears to be the case here.

Alice Julian declined rapidly after Elder Services got involved. This photo was taken shortly before her death in January 2018. Photo supplied by family.

Forced onto Drugs Against Her Will

The Boston Broadside article continues:

Specific to Alice Julian, Central Elder Services through its private counsel, Mary Kate Connolly, of O'Sullivan & Connolly, facilitated the court appointment of Attorney David Schwartz of Jewish Family & Children's Service as guardian and conservator over Alice Julian.

As standard operating procedure, Attorneys Mary Kate Connolly and David Schwartz forced 89-year-old Alice Julian against her will into a nursing home, while also obtaining a court-order forcing Alice Julian to be drugged with antipsychotics.

Also as a matter of routine, they used a purported diagnosis of dementia as the pretext for obtaining court-ordered antipsychotics.

Like so many other elders forced under court-ordered guardianships, 89-year-old Alice Julian had no prior history or diagnosis of dementia-it was only when Attorney Mary Kate Connolly became involved in her role with Central Elder Services that such purported diagnosis arose. And like so many other elders, attorneys for elder protective services and court-appointed guardians had Alice Julian sign advance directives pertaining to end-of life decisions. [Emphasis added by Health Impact News.]

It appears that Alice Julian had been forced to take antipsychotics starting around October of 2017.

Alice Julian was devastated about her captivity. Photo taken from a video interview with her attorney.

Attorneys Involved with Other Medical Kidnap Cases

Attorney Mary Kate Connolly was involved with another Boston medical kidnap case, that of Mary Frank, who is currently being held captive at the Reservoir Rehabilitation Center in Marlborough, Massachusetts. Mary Frank was seized after allegedly refusing to commit fraud by signing that home health nurses spent significantly more time at her house than they did.

Pamela Julian told Health Impact News that Ms. Connolly never spoke with her or interviewed her, even though her mother had appointed her as her chosen health care proxy.

Connolly reportedly helped to bring in attorney David Schwartz in the role of Alice Julian's guardian.

Attorney David Schwartz represents Jewish Family and Children's Services, and in that role, he has now been involved in 3 out of the 4 Boston area elder medical kidnapping cases that we have covered.

He was the guardian and conservator for Alice Julian.

Schwartz was one of the attorneys involved in advocating for the euthanasia of Beverley Finnegan. See link.

He is responsible for writing a letter and filing a motion to keep a journalist away from Mary Frank. See link.

Lonnie Brennan, editor of The Boston Broadside, was invited by Ms. Frank to the nursing home where she is being held so that he could publish her harrowing tale of medical kidnapping. Schwartz has reportedly violated Mary Frank's right to have visitors of her choosing.

Is the attorney for Jewish and Family Services attempting to silence the voice of one speaking up for her life against the injustices committed to her under the color of law?

Guardians Place Her in Hospice for Pneumonia, Withhold Medical Treatment

Belanger continues the story in The Boston Broadside:

Up until December of 2017, Alice Julian was an exceptionally healthy person at 89-years-old. She did not have any terminal illness prior to developing pneumonia sometime around New Years-after months of court-ordered forced use of antipsychotics.

Through court statements made to Justice Gaziano of the Supreme Judicial Court on January 8, 2018, counsel of record for Alice Julian-Attorney Frank J. Teague-outright expressed that Jewish Family & Children's Service had placed Alice Julian into hospice care for pneumonia instead of providing treatment.

He indicated that she had been given 2-3 dosages of antibiotics, but was stopped based on the claim that the antibiotics were not working; that she was overtly being deprived of IV fluids & nutrition; and that she was being given morphine. Attorney Teague explicitly stated that Alice Julian was being given morphine based on two reasons: back pain and to help slow down her breathing.

Egregiously, the April 2017 advance directives explicitly states that Alice Julian wanted IV fluids.

Even after she was in the nursing home, Ms. Julian was able to articulate her wishes. They were ignored. Photo taken from a video interview with her attorney.

While Alice Julian's daughter, Pamela, had fervently sought an emergency hearing before Judge Gaziano to obtain court orders to give Alice Julian IV fluids, nutrition and to treat for her pneumonia because her mother wanted to live, Judge Gaziano took it under advisement, evidently deciding he needed to sleep on the decision.

Less than twelve hours after the teleconferenced hearing, around 4:30 a.m., Alice Julian died at the hands of these court officials. One would think that a judge would err on the side of caution and have ordered her to receive life-sustaining treatment when contemplating such an urgent and immediate matter.

As in the case of Beverley Finnegan, medical treatment was withheld.

More horrifying is the fact that nutrition and fluids were withheld from Alice Julian. Much like the infamous Terri Schiavo story, Mrs. Julian's death was hastened by dehydration and starvation, a death that is reported to be exceptionally cruel and painful. This kind of death is not a case of “mercifully” allowing someone to die in peace, as some of the arguments for euthanasia go.

Attorney Requests Criminal Investigation

After Beverley Finnegan and Alice Julian died, attorney Lisa Belanger requested that the Medical Examiner's office perform autopsies and obtain toxicology reports “to show what chemicals, medicines were in their bodies upon death.”

That request was never honored.

Lawyers and guardians denied Beverley Finnegan the life-saving treatment her sister wanted her to have. The guardianship cost her life. Photo source.

She also contacted the office of Massachusetts Attorney General Maura Healey to request a criminal investigation into their deaths. Because their deaths were allegedly hastened, Belanger emphatically insists that crimes were committed. Euthanasia is illegal under Massachusetts law. Lisa Belanger wrote to the AG's office:

To reiterate this is a criminal investigation being sought–NOT civil. [Emphasis hers]

In her article in The Boston Broadside, Lisa Belanger took issue with the fact that life-sustaining treatment and simple IV fluids were withheld from Alice Julian:

If that does not show solid evidence that Alice Julian's death was hastened, then nothing does. Yet, Alicia Perez and Dean Mazzone of the AG's Office-specifically and adamantly informed me that the AG's Office does not handle this type of criminal matter.

Yep, you read that correctly-feel free to read that sentence again. But hold on to your seats, because I emailed AG Healey specifically addressing this proclaimed patently absurd notion. I emphasized to AG Healey that after 21 years of practicing law-especially criminal law-that I know which way is up; particularly, given the plain language of the controlling statute that expressly states that the AG's Office has direct power to handle reported crimes of hastened death of elders.

How Do Guardians Have Such Control?

Another Boston Broadside piece, written by David Arnold, addresses what the paper calls “the horrors of guardianship” in which the probate court has “absolute power” over lives:

The “judge” has sole control of guardianship:

The judge appoints the attorney for the incapacitated person.

The judge appoints the guardian/conservator who manages the person's affairs.

The judge appoints the GAL (guardian ad litem) who investigates the facts of the case.

The judge decides the case without the right to a jury trial.

The judge is responsible for accountability of the GAL and guardian/conservator.

The judge gives immunity to the GAL and the guardian/conservator as agents of the court. Judges have judicial immunity and extend that immunity to those they appoint. The constitution does not give anyone immunity. The court has given itself immunity. The combination of absolute power and immunity has set up a system of legalized crime where GALs and guardians can commit crimes with impunity.

How Many More Will Suffer?

Less than a year ago, Health Impact News reported the story of the medical kidnapping and essential imprisonment of Marvin Siegal, father of Lisa Belanger. Recently, we reported Mary Frank's story. Beverley Finnegan and Alice Julian died within days of each other in January. Mr. Siegal and Ms. Frank are still held in captivity.

All were in the Boston area when they lost their freedom at the hands of Elder Protective Services under the care of state-appointed, taxpayer-funded guardians. Jewish Family and Children's Services have been involved with each of their lives.

How many more senior citizens will lose their family relationships, their freedom, their health, and their lives under such a system? When will the attorneys, GALs, and social workers be held accountable?

Marvin Siegel (surrounded by family) and Mary Frank are still wards of the state, isolated from people who care about them, who still fight for them. (Siegel photo provided by family. Frank photo source.)

What Can You Do to Help?

The main office number for Massachusetts Governor Charlie Baker is 617 725 4005. He may be contacted here. He is also on Twitter.

Massachusetts State Auditor Suzanne Bump has been asked to conduct an audit of court appointed guardians and conservators, but she has reportedly declined. Her office recently conducted an audit of CPS and found many issues that need to be addressed.

See:

Massachusetts State Auditor Finds Widespread Rape and Sexual Abuse in Foster Care but DCF Officials Won't Report It

What would her office find if she audited Adult Protective Services? Would she be able to track the corruption that is surely present?

Auditor Suzanne Bump may be reached at 617 727 2075, or contacted here. She is also on Facebook and Twitter.

Maura Healey is the Massachusetts State Attorney General, tasked with “combating fraud and corruption” and “investigating and prosecuting crime,” according to the website.

Healey's office number is 617 727 8400. AG Maura Healey is also on Facebook.

Jewish Family and Children's Services, the common denominator in each of these cases, may be reached at 781 647 5327. They are also on Facebook and Twitter.
