"Torrance P.D. elder abuse detective and presented him with all the information and documents I had. We had a meeting that lasted over two hours. He was chomping at the bit to get this case and even called the sheriff's dept. They told him it was their investigation and he backed off."
Well, if the Sheriff's dept is not investigating it anymore, you may want to call the Torrance PD detective you talked with before and see if he would investigate it now. But I would still go see someone in the LA DA's office.
I thought you might be interested in posts 92 and on, by "dorrie". She seems to be Rami's niece, and has posted a plethera of background information regarding Rami and his horrible situation.
I forgot to mention to you that my sister and I put a large binder together with a chronological summary and index. In the binder are copies of all documents I discovered that show what Robin has done. I showed this to Torr. P.D. detective. He indicated that he had never seen anything so thorough. I think that's why he was anxious to get this case. I wish I could show you what we have, it reads like a movie.
More facts about this case:
During her deposition, Robin admitted taking a $70.000. wire transfer that came from Puerto Rico to Rami knowing it didn't belong to her, she had it transferred to a joint account and then she transferred to her separate account. She said she spent it. She admitted to taking his cadillac, which she had no legal claim to. It has not been found as of this date and is in the system as a stolen vehicle. It was during her deposition that she refused to answer questions that would have implicated her further in improper transfers of property and physical abuse of Rami. That's when she withdrew her petition for permanent conservatorship and requested Stubbs be appointed. She accused me and my family of unduly influencing Rami. Rami also told our family and friends that he found Robin in a compromising situation in his home with an attorney who had been representing Rami in another matter. Rami told us Robin made him go outside in the yard and not come in the house until she came for him. He said he got hot and tried to go in the house and found the door locked. He went in the back door and made the discovery. He remembered the month this happened. The attorney contacted me and said he had never even been to my uncle's home. I obtained a copy of his billing records, which were fairly detailed, showing on two occasions he billed a total of 8.5 hours for "meetings" at Rami's home, the same month my uncle said he found them together. Judge Kalin found that Rami was suffering from delusions and that there was no proof of that claim since Robin and this attorney both denied the allegation.
The judge accused my family of unduly influencing my uncle. Rami made these claims and they were part of court documents before we obtained the billing records confirming what Rami said.
I hope you are all able to read my postings. I'm sorry they are so long, but there is still so much info I want to get out there regarding the physical, mental and financial abuse she inflicted on my uncle.
I hope the Torrance PD will investigate, but I really think you should talk to the LA County DA, especially since you have such good documentation. They have a special unit to investigate such things, as I mentioned it earlier.
I think you would have a better chance with a criminal investigation, than in civil court.
Look at poor Terri Schiavo -- she had all the public attention, and the judge was able to kill her anyway.
I was just wondering if you had contacted the Empire Journal? (www.theempirejournal.com) They seem to keep track of and report on judicial tyranny issues. I've read about Scott Thomas in Florida at FR and at their site. I don't know how much they can do, but they will get the info out there once they've investigated. Terrisfight.org would probably like to help, too. That way, anyone who was involved with Terri and who doesn't want her death to be in vain, would help in some way, I'm sure.
I will try to contact them.
Judge Stoever was the first judge who heard my uncle's case. Three months after I was appointed temp. conservator and after many objections by Robin, there was a hearing on my temp. appointment. Judge Stoever had just a sampling of Robin's conduct and after receiving evidence, including a video tape transcript of Rami's depo, made a finding that Rami had the capacity to make an intelligent preference as to who he wanted to act as his conservator and that his choice was not the product of undue influence or fraud. He made these findings eight months before trial and after giving Rami two court appointed attorneys. These attorneys made recommendations to the court after lengthy investigations and interviews with Rami.
Judge Joseph Kalin made findings at trial that were not before him. The only issue was who should be conservator. Kalin went further by finding that Rami lacked the capacity to form an intelligent preference as to who he wanted as his conservator. Kalin had no power to make that finding, it had already been made by Judge Stoever. But Kalin had no problem accepting Rami's CONSENT to the conservatorship. How can Rami have capacity to consent but lack capacity to say who he wants?????
Judge Aviva Bob received Rami's case for post trial issues the first week she was transferred to the probate court, with no prior experience in probate. She listened to the "big firm", Holland & Knight and to the "professional" conservator, Dan Stubbs.
I'd take this more seriously if you didn't compare it to Schiavo which has NOTHING to do with this. Not even close.
A disabled person whose spouse makes all decisions for him and has her own agenda, think again, sounds familiar to me.
No one can see him or even talk to him on the phone
please keep us posted.
Super thanks for caring!
I am just his friend, who promised to do whatever it took to free him from this situation - that is before his conservator kidnapped him and gave him back to the wife he wants rid of.
Yesterday his court appointed attorney (the new guy) finally called me back. It is my opinion that after talking to him, he is not for what is best for our friend. He had the nerve to ask me why Rami's previous attorney had filed all these motions about civil rights.
Duh! Rami has no civil rights left. I bet Rami is crying in his pillow. He has not been allowed to see anyone who cares about him since 1/8/05.
According to what his new attorney told me, he has not spent a lot of time with him, but takes credence in what he is told by the (corrupt) conservator, shrink (hired by wife and conservator).
We will save Rami from these corrupt people. How can you help us?
Thanks!
Hildy,
You have obviously not taken a look at the court filings. Legally it is the same as Schiavo. In this case we are simply pre-nursing home - it is getting close. Where have you been?

Do we wait until someone is so debilitated as to need a feeding tube to trash them?
This wife has continually threatened him with institutionalization. Then there is death.
Hildy,
get a life.
Rami's sister and her children could not financially gain from his conservatorship. In fact, it cost all of them many thousands of dollars trying to protect him and his estate (for his children). If you know how they could have financially gained, please tell me. Now it may cost Alice's daughter and her husband their livelihood for standing up for their uncle for his children. Severe bar complaints have been filed against them by Rami's wonderful wife (barf). Now they had to spend thousands to defend that.
Rami went to his sister Alice and asked for help. I don't think Alice thought of the kids during that time - he was seriously ill. From the lab tests taken at that time that Rami showed me, he was days away from death. He told me he told Alice's family to hide him from everyone. I don't think anyone thought about his kids at that moment in time.
The night the conservator removed Rami from his sister's house I was called. I went there. We called the cops. His sister and her kids and his brother Nelson were beside themselves wondering what to do. When the chaos subsided a bit, I asked if anyone had called his kids. His sister said, "oh, my God the kids, yes, what do we tell them?" Alice got her address book and gave me the number of his daughter. Everybody was crying and very afraid. I dialed the # on my cell phone, not having aclue what to say. I don't remember what I said beyond tell your brother.
Odd intro to my friend's daughter.
Browneyes you have a distorted view about what is going on.
Later
Hildy
You do not understand this case
Legally it is identical to Schiavo, which is why we are so afraid the supposed wife will be able to have him locked up and killed.
Get a life.
We had one article in the Empire Journal. I hope they do more. Their investigative reporting is great!
Rami, we are all pulling for you!
BUMP
Browneyes
You only have part of the story.
And the part you have has distorted how you think about it.
