Linda Kincaid presented two posters at the 2013 American Public Health Association conference in Boston. The posters focused on elder abuse by Public Guardians and private conservators.
She writes that she left her safety consultant career after her mother was taken from her home, isolated, and imprisoned by an abusive conservator. “Law enforcement, government agencies, and the court failed to protect the victim’s rights. The District Attorney said the situation was ‘nothing out of the ordinary.’ Many other families tell similar stories of loved ones taken from their homes, imprisoned and isolated, and estates rapidly depleted.”
Kincaid is now a full-time advocate for civil rights of the elderly and disabled.
