Attorney Defies Subpoena in Alleged “Murder for Money” Scheme

  By

Attorney Defies Subpoena in Alleged “Murder for Money” Scheme From Elderabusehelp.org A San Bernardino County attorney has defied a court issued subpoena mandating that he turn over bank records which would allegedly implicate him in a “murder-for-money scheme.” The account in question belonged to a conservatee and was subsequently taken over by the attorney’s client, conservator Melodie Scott. Attorney J. David Horspool has consistently denied knowledge of any Bank of America account pertinent to Amalie M. Phelan. However, records already obtained show that Horspool and Scott drilled the safety deposit box held in Amalie Phelan’s name at the very Bank of America branch location where the account was situated, calling into question his profession of ignorance. According to Janet Phelan, Horspool and Scott withheld from the court all records pertaining to this account and also withheld information about two Bank of America VISA cards and used these to pay off Judith Phelan, Amalie’s eldest daughter, who then allegedly withheld Amalie’s necessary cardiac medicine in an effort to kill her in 2002.

[They ranged in age from 13-year-old Sebastian Mayorga to 87-year-old Leland Lee.] GOOD NEWS: No permanent conservator for Lee Peters was appointed on June 15. This was a victory, as it was widely expected that the temporary conservator would win permanent status that day. Another victory was that visitation was extended from one hour to two hours per day. This allows time for a more leisurely interaction with Lee. BAD NEWS: On the negative side, Lee Peters is still being held captive where she does not want to be. She is becoming less ambulatory and is losing mental focus. WHAT HAPPENED IN COURT: On June 15, a hearing was held in Los Angeles Superior Court in the matter of the proposed Conservatorship of the Person and Estate of Lee Peters. The afternoon began with a real-life courtroom drama, as the attorney for Lee’s son and longtime caregiver, Casey Peters, asked to approach the bench. After 10-15 minutes of quiet consultation, the judge announced that the attorney was dismissed from the case and that Casey and Marilyn Peters would have to represent themselves In Pro Per. The judge struck a plethora of paperwork that had been compiled and filed by Marilyn and Casey, but let it be known that the evidence could be reintroduced. Casey Peters made an opening statement some 40 minutes long, reviewing the chain of events that… Read More
