Injustice

| October 21, 2013 12:18 PM

What would you do if this happened to you? What greed, jealousy, hate and injustice can do to you.

An elderly man suffered a stroke, and because of this has many problems. He has a friend who took care of him, so he gave his friend his personal belongings.

His sister from Nevada and her son and wife from Washington state came for a visit. While visiting, they had the sheriff come with orders from the Adult Protective Service come and pick up this man and commit him to a Mineral County nursing home. Trying to prove his incompetent for his actions.

His mule, J.D., which he has had for 20 years, had leg problems. He carried food and water to him twice a day and cleaned up after him.

While in the nursing home, the mule was put down and buried without his knowledge. The rest of his animals were hauled off. We don’t know their fate.

The man who was caring for the elderly man is forbidden to see or talk to him.

Where are our Constitutional rights and our freedom?
