For years I have seen this false report show up when my name is googled. The truth is that Edward K. Sutton, Jr ("Jr") and several of his drug abusing cronies were taking advantage of his parents. The City of Montclair Code Enforcement made the parents move out of there home because the conditions were so deplorable. The parents were told by the city that if the house and property again became so cluttered, (20+ cats in a large cage, multiple dogs in and out of the house, broken down cars in the yards and driveway, hoarding, etc.) the city would pay to have the clean-up done and put a lien against the home.
The Montclair Police Department made several raids and arrested Jr and his friends for possession and sale of illegal substances. The house was welll known for the illegal activities.
The family contacted me to become the Conservator of both parents. They were unable to say no to their son and his friends. At the time I assumed the court apponted position Jr had taken out over 24 credit cards in his father's name. There are still collection agencies chasing Jr for repayment. The parents were using all of their monthly retirement funds and dipping into savings each month to support Jr, his girlfriend and others. None of these people were employed. Jr took his 80+ year old father when he went to buy and sell drugs.
It is unfortunate that Jr's parents felt that he was somehow disabled and enabled his irresponsible behavior. The father constantly wrote letters claiming that the convictions were always someone else's fault, that his son was framed, that there was a conspiracy against his son, including the police, the courts, the government and others.
All of my actions were approved by the Superior Court for the County of San Bernardino including how the parents finances were handled, bills paid, my billings and accountings. The records with the police department and Code Enforcement will substantiate Jr's actions. The Conservatorship file is public record and outlines the abuse perpetrated by Jr and his friends on his parents. Jr's criminal record is also open to the public from minor traffic violations through drug convictions and conviction for child abuse.
It is easy to anonymously slander someone on the internet and not have to back up your claims.

We recently went through something much similar. Can't say a whole lot here, as we also have ongoing issues, very similar, but the way the cops treated you is very wrong, and just becasue they're in the high desert, they think they can get away with it, because people are afraid to complain, and all the judges and lawyers trade favors to those with the most $. We were even told (by a sneering cop) not to drive down dark streets, alone!? We have an attorney helping, and are gathering testimonies from others who have been abused by the law in the high desert. If what you say is true, we need to talk! We are not permitted to post e-mail addresses or our name here, which we would be afraid to do anyway, but we could help each other, so we need to get in touch somehow.

THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR LISTENING TO ME .I THINK THIS IS SOME KIND OF PROBATE SCAM.

From your post it is hard to ascertain this person's relationship to yourself and your parents. Are they elderly and is he some kind of a caretaker for them? How is it he is involved in their/your life? In what manner did he get access to their bank account and your bank account AND your vehicles? Did he somehow get the vehicle titles changed from your names into his (and how did he do so - does he somehow have a power of attorney relationship?). If he is truly abusing what ever POA relationship he may have, get as many facts as you can together and take them to the police or a qualified attorney who deals with such matters as elder abuse. Is there really a restraining order agaisnt you keeping you away from your parent's house? Did you do something to cause that to be put in place? A few more facts would be helpful.
