00:00:56,040 --> 00:00:58,480
Speaker 1: to have your guards up because folks is always trying

23
00:00:58,480 --> 00:01:00,400
Speaker 1: to get over. And that's exactly what happened with Justin

24
00:01:00,480 --> 00:01:03,360
Speaker 1: Ray Donaldson. See he is now in jail with scam

25
00:01:03,440 --> 00:01:06,120
Speaker 1: and senior citizens. The man befriended a seventy three year

26
00:01:06,120 --> 00:01:09,200
Speaker 1: old woman diabolical. This woman probably wanted the friends so

27
00:01:09,280 --> 00:01:12,200
Speaker 1: bad because all her other friends probably dead, so he

28
00:01:12,319 --> 00:01:14,960
Speaker 1: established a relationship. Nothing in freaky, Okay. He wasn't into

29
00:01:15,240 --> 00:01:17,640
Speaker 1: you know, ja rentifolio. I think that's what they call it,

30
00:01:17,680 --> 00:01:20,760
Speaker 1: ja rentifolio. That's an attraction to elderly ass Okay, he

31
00:01:20,800 --> 00:01:23,120
Speaker 1: wasn't into that. His role was similar to that of

32
00:01:23,160 --> 00:01:25,800
Speaker 1: a grandson. And this woman's husband died, so he was

33
00:01:25,800 --> 00:01:27,800
Speaker 1: in a she was in a very vulnerable state, and

34
00:01:28,280 --> 00:01:30,440
Speaker 1: Justin saw the opening and slit in for this camp.

35
00:01:30,560 --> 00:01:31,920
Speaker 1: Let's go to NBC News for the report.

36
00:01:31,959 --> 00:01:34,480
Speaker 3: Police and Anderson County man is under arrest after your

37
00:01:34,480 --> 00:01:37,720
Speaker 3: deputy said he was. He scammed a recent widow into

38
00:01:37,800 --> 00:01:41,119
Speaker 3: believing she had dementia. Deputy say, thirty five year old

39
00:01:41,200 --> 00:01:45,440
Speaker 3: Justin Donaldson established a grandson like relationship with a seventy

40
00:01:45,440 --> 00:01:49,320
Speaker 3: three year old woman at a senior living facility. According

41
00:01:49,360 --> 00:01:53,120
Speaker 3: to deputies, after the woman's husband died, Donaldson convinced her

42
00:01:53,160 --> 00:01:56,880
Speaker 3: to make him her power of attorney. Official say, the

43
00:01:56,920 --> 00:02:00,400
Speaker 3: woman reported fraud this month. Donaldson is char Chards with

44
00:02:00,520 --> 00:02:01,560
Speaker 3: breach of trust.

45
00:02:02,160 --> 00:02:08,400
Speaker 1: Now, I'm not sure how dementia works. Okay, I'm not

46
00:02:08,440 --> 00:02:10,480
Speaker 1: sure how dementia works in any way, shape or form.

47
00:02:10,840 --> 00:02:13,520
Speaker 1: I have no idea of people with dementia, even though

48
00:02:13,520 --> 00:02:15,320
Speaker 1: they got dementia. So I don't even know how you

49
00:02:15,360 --> 00:02:18,639
Speaker 1: can be convinced that you have dementia. Now, what I

50
00:02:18,680 --> 00:02:20,959
Speaker 1: don't understand is this woman has daughters. According to the

51
00:02:21,000 --> 00:02:23,560
Speaker 1: news report, Okay, who are her power of attorneys? If

52
00:02:23,560 --> 00:02:26,400
Speaker 1: this elderly woman went and told people, hey, I want

53
00:02:26,400 --> 00:02:29,400
Speaker 1: to remove my daughter's power of attorney over her affairs,

54
00:02:29,600 --> 00:02:33,000
Speaker 1: wouldn't somebody call the daughters. Then the daughters can intervene

55
00:02:33,040 --> 00:02:35,120
Speaker 1: and say, who the hell is justin Ray Donaldson? They

56
00:02:35,240 --> 00:02:37,760
Speaker 1: just going to allow this man to come in have

57
00:02:37,880 --> 00:02:41,000
Speaker 1: her remove her daughter's's power of attorney, and he's just

58
00:02:41,200 --> 00:02:43,880
Speaker 1: easily able to secure the woman's trust and access to

59
00:02:43,919 --> 00:02:46,440
Speaker 1: her bank accounts. I don't get it. He instructed her

60
00:02:46,440 --> 00:02:48,880
Speaker 1: to take out a home equity loan for home repairs,

61
00:02:48,919 --> 00:02:51,760
Speaker 1: but instead went out and bought a twenty fifteen Chevy

62
00:02:51,760 --> 00:02:54,600
Speaker 1: tie hole for himself. Now, I know dementia causes a

63
00:02:54,639 --> 00:02:58,000
Speaker 1: decline in someone's mental abilities, but this woman was able

64
00:02:58,040 --> 00:03:01,200
Speaker 1: to understand everything Justin rad Donisan was telling her to do.

65
00:03:01,480 --> 00:03:03,880
Speaker 1: She had enough cognitive abilities to know to take her

66
00:03:04,000 --> 00:03:06,560
Speaker 1: daughters off the power of attorney. She had enough cognitive

67
00:03:06,560 --> 00:03:08,960
Speaker 1: abilities to put everything in this man's name, but she

68
00:03:09,000 --> 00:03:12,440
Speaker 1: didn't understand that she was getting scammed. Once again, I

69
00:03:12,440 --> 00:03:14,400
Speaker 1: don't know anything about dementia. Of course I have had

70
00:03:14,400 --> 00:03:16,200
Speaker 1: people in my family who have had it, but hey,

71
00:03:16,240 --> 00:03:18,400
Speaker 1: do they know they got it? And can somebody just

72
00:03:18,800 --> 00:03:22,680
Speaker 1: diagnose and convince you that you have it? Because that's

73
00:03:22,680 --> 00:03:24,600
Speaker 1: what happened in this case. I guess now that I

74
00:03:24,600 --> 00:03:27,440
Speaker 1: think about it. If someone is telling me I got

75
00:03:27,440 --> 00:03:29,880
Speaker 1: dementia and I can't remember ever having dementia, and maybe

76
00:03:29,880 --> 00:03:32,120
Speaker 1: I did forget that I got dementia, I don't know.

77
00:03:32,240 --> 00:03:34,280
Speaker 1: I just know it's a special place reserved in hell

78
00:03:34,520 --> 00:03:36,680
Speaker 1: for someone like Justin Ray Donaldson. I don't know why

79
00:03:36,720 --> 00:03:39,720
Speaker 1: we take advantage of elderly people. That's like taking advantage

80
00:03:39,720 --> 00:03:43,240
Speaker 1: of kids. Okay, we act like we don't have grandparents, Okay,

81
00:03:43,240 --> 00:03:46,040
Speaker 1: great grandparents old to parents. Hell, we act like we

82
00:03:46,240 --> 00:03:49,119
Speaker 1: not gonna be old one day. Respect your eldest. Okay,

83
00:03:49,240 --> 00:03:51,160
Speaker 1: learn from the people who walk the path before you

84
00:03:51,400 --> 00:03:54,559
Speaker 1: respect them, because someday, sooner than you could ever imagine,

85
00:03:54,760 --> 00:03:57,320
Speaker 1: you're going to be an elder. Two, if you're blessed,

86
00:03:57,920 --> 00:04:00,320
Speaker 1: please let me memind give Justin Ray Donaldson big as

Speaker 1: Are you dumb? How do you convince somebody they got dementia?

90
00:04:08,800 --> 00:04:09,440
Speaker 1: That's crazy.

91
00:04:09,640 --> 00:04:10,040
Speaker 2: I don't know.

92
00:04:10,920 --> 00:04:11,520
Speaker 1: That's crazy.

93
00:04:11,600 --> 00:04:15,080
Speaker 2: My grandmother be trying to convince us she ain't got it,

94
00:04:15,720 --> 00:04:15,960
Speaker 2: you know.

00:04:16,880 --> 00:04:18,040
Speaker 1: So she's aware she has it.

96
00:04:19,800 --> 00:04:22,120
Speaker 3: She has to mention some people.

97
00:04:22,200 --> 00:04:24,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, definitely, people definitely know what they got. What you mean,

98
00:04:25,080 --> 00:04:26,839
Speaker 2: I don't know about the all timers people, but yeah,

99
00:04:26,920 --> 00:04:29,280
Speaker 2: my grandmother know she got dementia because giz mother didn't

100
00:04:29,720 --> 00:04:31,919
Speaker 2: had times that she got it, but she definitely got it.

101
00:04:32,560 --> 00:04:34,480
Speaker 1: His mother didn't. She didn't know. She had no clue.

102
00:04:34,520 --> 00:04:36,480
Speaker 2: Like she was, everything was regular, So if there was

103
00:04:36,480 --> 00:04:37,360
Speaker 2: a story, she'd tell a.

104
00:04:37,279 --> 00:04:39,479
Speaker 1: Story over and over and over again, and she thought

105
00:04:39,600 --> 00:04:41,560
Speaker 1: she was telling it for the first time. She had

106
00:04:41,600 --> 00:04:42,920
Speaker 1: no clue. Yeah, that's how it goes.

Speaker 2: She didn't remember, Well, my grandmother is going to get
