Take a look outside today – the Sun is out, the weather is mild, the air is fresh, and it is great to be alive.  It is even a quiet news day!    However, the media is up and at them pouring vitriol and irrelevancy into the atmosphere.
The real news of the day is obscured by nonsense such as the recount, who President elect Trump is going to appoint for his personal dog=catcher and who Senator **** objects to him because of his stand on *****.   However, lets look at two fact situations:
Fact situation 1.   An attorney, is involved in a company that supplies Hospice services to the dying.   He has a company, and is…

From Ken Ditkowsky;
This morning as I took my morning bicycle ride I looked at the beauty that surrounded me and crisp fresh air and was struck with the thought – IT IS GREAT TO BE ALIVE.     Now that I am retired, I do not have to give a damn!   Unfortunately I do!
It did occur to me after I send out my e-mail decrying the fact that here in Illinois it is ethically challenged to report criminal behavior by judges, lawyers, political officials, judicial officials and others who owe US fidelity, honesty, and integrity.  My e-mail goes on to complain that people who breach their fiduciary relationships and the public trust are held in very high regard by the Illinois Supreme Court and our Illinois public official.
A watchdog of the public morals actually barred an Icon of the Civil Rights movement from a public accommodation…

All JoAnne Denison and I asked for was an HONEST INVESTIGATION  of a guardianship that was so flawed the flaws stuck out as sore thumbs.   The flaws were:  1) the Sheriff denied serving summons; 2) the jurisdictional criteria of notice to near relatives was ignored, 3) there was no hearing to determine either incompetency of the degree of incompetency, and 4) there were two guardian ad litem, the petition was improper, and the Judge admitted in her evidence deposition at page 91 that regardless of the evidence she would find the need of a guardianship.  (You cannot make this stuff up!)
 
The victim died and about 3 million dollars including a million dollars in gold coins disappeared!   Jerome…

Yesterday I received an e-mail from my daughter which I forwarded by e-mail to everyone in sight.    (Analysis of the election continues, noting that many candidates did well by simply challenging the establishment).
What is so wrong with the establishment?     Why is “establishment” such a dirty word?      The e-mail that I forwarded points out in simple words of one syllable the answer.      Political correctness.     It is now politically correct to abuse, exploit, and dehumanize the elderly and disabled, however, it is not politically correct to talk about it.
 
When Diane Nash, an icon of the Civil Rights movement sought to obtain the public accommodation of attending one of the kangaroo hearings involving the demonization of Attorney JoAnne Denison, she was barred from the hearing.    How was this act of racial discrimination rationalized?     It was not – the agent of the…

Illinois hides abuse and neglect of adults with disabilities

Barbara Chyette holds up a picture of her late brother, Loren Braun, a group home resident who choked to death during a supervised outing. (John J. Kim / Chicago Tribune)
By Michael J. Berens and Patricia Callahan
The house had no address; the dead man had no name.
Illinois officials blacked out those details from their investigative report. Nobody else was supposed to learn the man’s identity or the location of the state-funded facility where his body was found.
The investigation was closed as it began, with no public disclosure, and the report was filed away, one of thousands that portray a hidden world of misery and harm.
No one would know that Thomas Powers died at 3300 Essington Road in unincorporated Joliet, in a group home managed for adults with developmental…

The effort that has been expended to avoid an HONEST INVESTIGATION of the systematic isolation, abuse and exploitation of the elderly by officials of the justice system using the guardianship ploy is remarketable.    Jerome Larkin has spend hundreds of thousands of State of Illinois funds in his efforts to protect the health care frauds committed by corrupt judicial officials and their cohorts, and across the USA the toll adds up.
This afternoon I ran across the following article, to wit:
John Mininno ferrets out shady activity by looking for patterns in vast troves of data.

After years of going to the blogs, media and social media, I just heard from Candice Schwager that Earnestine is finally free to go home and live where she wants!

I am so happy for them both.

I am hoping to get a full report from Doug Franks, but for all of you praying for her release from forced placement in a nursing home, and restrictions on visitation by Doug, your and our prayers have been answered.

The following video was taken at a dog park where Ernestine is obviously enjoying a freedom she did not have for the prior years under guardianship in a nursing home.

Subject: Time for Jerome Larkin to either fish or cut bait
Date: Nov 14, 2016 3:19 PM
During the last Presidential campaign the two candidates for President concentrated on demonizing their opponents.   Each portrayed their opponent in the most derogatory manner possible.   Some of the comments were fair, others were unfair, and still others were downright improper.    Unfortunately, this Presidential campaign was and is not the only forum in which such obscenity occurs.
Just so that we cannot be properly accused of similar conduct, I think we ought to offer Jerome Larkin a public opportunity to explain the Lanre Amu case wherein we have accused him of gross racial discrimination and in particular obtaining the suspension of Amu for practicing law while black.    At the very same time, we would like an explanation as to how it happened that Diane Nash was barred from the JoAnne…
