Admissions in pleadings filed shows that in the Sophie Recihert estate, the OPG (Office of Public Guardian) of Cook County is not paying the mortgage for a very valuable piece of income property (bar and 5 apartments), despite receiving rents.  This is a clear violation of the mortgage terms on the property, but instead, the OPG is using rental income to pay their tied in care givers an astounding $8k to $9k per month, when DIL Barbara Monaghan did the same job AND managed the Clark Street Wrigleyville property for $2400 per month.  DIL Barbara always paid the mortgage on time.

Apparently Nevada has similar problems, but their guardianship problems are hitting the major media and then seniors are getting help from some of the court corruption.

Please view these short videos on two similar cases:
