Connecticut Woman Charged With Ripping Off Her 89-Year Old Mother Of Home, Cash

In Ansonia, Connecticut, WTNH-TV Channel 8 reports:

• An Ansonia woman was arrested [last week] for allegedly violating the court-ordered fiduciary duties for her 89-year-old mother. Donna D. Kingston, 61, allegedly withdrew more than $72,000 by closing a CD account and withdrawing funds from her mother's bank account in May and June 2007. Less than $4,500 was left in the bank account, the warrant states.

• In May 2008, Ms. Kingston quit-claimed full ownership of her mother's Ansonia home to herself. Although the deed allowed the mother life use of the property, she has repeatedly demanded the return of her home and assets without result. Kingston was charged with three counts of larceny.
