Guardianship Injustice
By Andrew Chadwick

It has been a long battle to get attention and justice for many of our senior citizens, who have been abused and cheated of their live savings; in the name of “…..looking after the well-being of the aged”.
The same laws, that were enacted to safeguard our seniors, have been misused by Guardianship Boards and some court systems.
There are a number of great sites on the net, highlighting the outrageous treatment of those elderly. A few good sites on this issue:
The above list is not exhaustive. There are a lot of elderly who have been abused by the system, but do not have friends or relatives who can highlight their cases.
Elder advocates for those who have been abused by the guardianship system, are often accused of “hidden agenda”.
At the moment, it seems that guardianship abuse is confined to the USA. This is far from the truth. I have received a huge amount of documents from someone in Tasmania, Australia, regarding a couple of cases that are unjust and authorities over there, just did not respond to enquiries posted by concerned friends and relatives.
No one, it seems, want to expose the alleged injustice done to 2 elderly ladies. I will attempt to expose these 2 cases soon. What I gathered from documents provided by a tireless friend of the ladies in question; disturb me greatly. I believe, anyone who is mindful of human rights and care of the elderly, would want to know why these 2 cases in Australia, did not get the deserved attention of authorities and the media.
