Since I first became involved in this case I have been attempting to take a 'baby Step' Just have someone do an HONEST intelligent complete and comprehensive investigation. I've talked to the press, and anyone who would listen and so far I have come up with a big zero.
Unfortunately, this what you have to expect. The vested interests in the cottage industry are clever, they have had a long to prepare, and most importantly they have garnered the support of the political royalty. Greylord went on for a long time before the Fed finally appeared on the scene and cracked the whip. One of the investigators told me that every judge he investigated was "dirty." Naively I challenged his statement, and he pointed out to me that in Cook County you could not be a judge unless the political people had someone on you to hold over your head. I went to school with several of the Judges and they were good friends. (several still are) Even today I cannot believe that x, y, and z would do anything wrong. I know x, y, and z like I know my wife and my children. Yet, a public official and a bank lawyer that I studied with in school each had a problem - one went to jail, and the other went into the Witness protection program.
Some of the people involved in Greylord I broken bread with and our families have socialized. Even when they admitted wrongdoing I had trouble believing it.
Corruption is a cancer that pollutes our society. No matter where you turn it is upon you. When the corrupters are strangers it is much easier to be outraged. In the elder cleansing scandal so far all are strangers and my outrage has not boundary lines.
Now the solution. The only solution is hard work and plenty of it. Unity is nice but not necessary. We are not National Socialists or Communists and therefore we do not have march in lock step. Diane Nash in discussing the Civil Rights movement and how it obtained success summed it with a phrase - you have to be willing to die for the cause. Indeed, no one has ever gotten out of this life alive and it is ironic that the most vulnerable of the combatants are those fighting to preserve the cottage industry of elder cleansing. Take any of the miscreants - what have they been teaching their children by example? There lesson is "what is mine is mine and what yours is mine" Thus,all we have to do is keep at what we have been doing - writing, speaking, and calling for an HONEST intelligent complete and comprehensive investigation. As law enforcement observes the miscreants it will do its job. Like in Greylord the Courts will do their job, and ultimately this current group of criminals will receive their just reward.
I am not fond of organized religion of any stripe or color, but, I do believe that there is a Divine power who guides the path of civilization. This Divine power has a sense of humor and is a bit of bully. In the end the bad guys fail and the good guys win. We do not always know that to be the case, but, ******.
Our country has a cash crisis. Our State has a cash crisis. Our municipal government has a cash crisis. The miscreants who prey on the elderly do not have a cash crisis. For instance, the plenary guardian in the Sykes case drilled a safety deposit box and removed over a million dollars in gold coins and never inventoried coin one. She also removed other valuables that were also not inventoried. I'll bet you a dollar to your penny that on her 2009 and other tax returns not one dime was reported as income. It is naive to think that she did not share her spoils with the two guardian ad litem and/or the judge who presides over this fiasco. I'll bet that they forgot to report the benefit on their 1040s. The United States of America and the State of Illinois should share in the booty! Reminding the Internal Revenue Service of this uncollected tax on the spoils of Elder cleansing is a laudable task. If the IRS does its job they take the profit out of elder cleansing and go a long way to solving the cash crisis that our government finds itself in.
In each of the elder cleansing cases the motive is profit! If you earn x dollars selling widgets you have to pay your income taxes on the profit. Why should Carolyn Toerpe be exempt. The misbegotten funds are earnings whether or not they are paid as campaign contributions, employment for a relative, a zoning change, or a wink at professional responsibility. THIS IS BARTER INCOME!!!
In Short - there is no short cut. bad behavior is human! Elder abuse, Financial exploitation of the elder, and involuntary assisted suicide (elder cleansing elements) are deplorable perfidious and hateful. As good people we have the obligation to root the miscrants out and turn them over to law enforcement. (18 USCA 4). Those amongst us with talent at some point in time will bring their talent to bear and a hue and cry will envelop the bad guys. Have faith and patience.

PS--from JoanneJust to add to Ken's comments about the Divine Ones. I do believe there are no coincidences, everyone who is a light entity and a good person comes with guardian angels, a chart and a plan. If your life is hard, guess what? You signed up for it. The reason? To learn more. Earth is the Harvard of the universe. If you are here you have accomplished a whole lot before you came here. This will not last and it will be over soon. Wealth, real and personal property will soon be gone. Do the best you can with what you have. The Divine Ones are NOT in any shape or form bullies. They are in fact all peace and love, but they recognize a human's spiritual need to grow, develop and learn--even against all odds. We do this to ourselves to learn as much as we can while we are here. Note you learn the most when times are the hardest. Joanne
