Family Fleecing

In fact, when my brother and sister were fleecing me with our mother's VERY small estate (1995-2001)- my brother's wife Sheila approached me. My brother always sends another to speak to me as the corrupt do. Sheila told me that I needed to compromise. I told her that compromising how much I would allow my sister and brother to steal from me was not going to happen. I had the numbers and the documentation for equitable distribution. They did it anyway and brought those that I loved into the fold to alienate me. My then husband was taking it all in. He did the same when I filed for divorce in 2005. Except he used our children to break me while fleecing me for all he could. Absolute terror to see him succeeding, with the support of my brother  (George Allen- VP of Beeline Cable, Skowhegan Maine).

My brother George had managed to get my Mom to sign the Bayside, Maine family cottage over to him in 1978, a year after our Dad died in NJ. George was 18, I was 17.  I wouldn't find out that I was kicked out of my beloved Bayside until years later through Janel. Although it was wrong, I knew it was my Mother's choice to do what she pleased. Janel let me stay in her cottage (Sunny Side) when I came up for vacation. I was working full time since I was 17, beginning as a shipping clerk in a man packed muffler warehouse, Midas International. Until Mom died in 1995. Then Janel thought I'd let her rob Mom's estate because she let me stay at Sunny Side. Janel was heavily in debt with 3 homes going into foreclosure. Eddie was clueless, Janel was very shrewd when sober. The night my Mom died haunts me. Mom had come home a weeks stay in the hospital. Her health was frail. Emphysema for many years, at 76 her time was limited. Janel had been in Bayside and I took care of Mom. We agreed that Janel would take over when Janel got back (Janel lived 45 minutes away from Mom. I lived 1/2 mile away- same hometown) and I would take my 8 month old daughter to Janel's cottage in Bayside for a few weeks.

The night Mom came home from the hospital, Janel was there. I was at my home, all packed up and ready to leave for Bayside that next morning at 4 am. Around midnight, Janel calls me and tells me to come to Mom's house immediately. I ask why? She won't say. She tells me to come NOW. Mom's house has 4 levels- bedrooms are on the top 2. Janel is in the kitchen and tells me to go up to Mom's bedroom. I go alone and Mom is laying there in a stroke state. Eyes open, head moving back and forth. Jesus Christ, Janel hadn't even called 911. I call from Mom's bedside and never leave her until as the paramedics begin losing her and pounding on her. They ask me which hospital I want to take her to. I tell them she has a  DNR living will. They want it. I yell to Janel- it was on the kitchen table. I give it to them, they stop resuscitation and I watched Mom die.

Janel never came up to the bedroom the entire time. After they left, I stayed with Mom, said my goodbyes and put her teeth back in. I was in shock. I went down stairs and Janel was popping pills and calling everyone under the moon at 2 am to tell them Mom died. It was surreal. The coroner's came to take Mom. I brought them to the bedroom but did not want to see them Mom put in the bag. I went down stairs. I remembered that Mom had kept all her valuable jewelry hidden in the garbage can next to her bed where the coroner's were. I told Janel that I had to go up and get the jewelry in case it was stolen. Janel said no, she already had it all in her bag.... I still went up to make sure they treated Mom with care.

It didn't hit me until the next day that Janel had never been in the room since I had arrived. Then it started hitting me hard. She didn't call 911, she was setting me up in case there was suspicion. There is no other reason for her to have had the jewelry while Mom was still alive. Her behaviors were even more evident. A close family friend knew it too. I told my brothers and they refused to act. George pitted me against Janel and played both sides until he got his share. Then he threw me to the curb. And did it again when Janel died. And did it again when I filed for divorce. And did it again when I moved to Belfast. And did it again when our brother Donald died in 9/4/2014.

My sister had died in 2002 and George fleeced her summer house in Bayside, Maine. My sister's husband, Eddie, gave my brother the antiques that Eddie carried out from Mom's house during the wake. Bags and bags, right in front of me, my 2 brothers and friends. My sister had stayed in Mom's house for 3 days after death, pillaging. JaneI spoke up and my brother's kept quiet. They did not want to challenge our sister and George me up to do it when he left NJ. All Mom's expensive antique jewelry that my sister had stolen the night Mom died, was given to Sheila by Eddie when my sister died. I did not know that, Eddie told me in 2003 and George went ballistic. He actually demanded that I get out of the house, witnessed by Eddie and Sheila. The jig was up. Sheila and George have never accounted for the fleecing. Keep it. Stay away from me. As they taint my children with their unethical behaviors with my ex in Bayside.

George had been alienating me from our family since we were kids but I didn't gel until that night. It was calculating behavior disorders and calculating.  Ditto my sister, my ex, Belfast City Manager Joe Sloscum, City Planner Wayne Marshall, City Attorney Bill Kelly, City Council Mike Heil Hurley... many from neighboring Bayside (Northport). You can spot the corrupted minds in an instant with a challenge of truth.
