My husband has recently passed away with no will. He was diagnosed with stage 4 lung cancer with Mets to brain, bone and other organs in March of 2018. In June he had brain surgery, in July he also had brain surgery... he was in and out of the hospital multiple times in 2018 for various things. Pulmonary embolism, collapsed lung, complications due to chemo ect. My husband was a self employed Locksmith for over 20 years before he became sick...he didn’t have a brick and mortar, he was mobile only, so his work van was his “shop” he became unable to drive so his brother and himself went on calls together and his brother drove the workvan. The workvan broke down and we didn’t have the money to repair it due to him not making a whole lot of money so he and his brother just used the brother’s car to do calls. Then a month later the brother goes out and buys a van at his own expense, telling my husband “oh, when your gone, I’m gonna do locksmithing myself. At this point everything we owned that was previously on my husband’s van, was now on the brothers van so they could do work. A couple weeks later my husband was hospitalized and was on multiple pain meds, Ativan ect. His brother came to the hospital with papers he had drawn up stating that all of the equipment and my husband’s business was to be given to him for the purchase price of 3.00! Yes..... three dollars. He had a nurse witness it, and my 19 year old daughter was there by herself, and he threatened her into signing the papers. As soon as my husband got out of the hospital he told his brother he wanted all his stuff back and he didn’t want anything to do with him ever again.... well the brother refused and my husband passed away Jan 21st 2019 and his brother still has all of my husband’s things. My husband and I were married for 30 years......isn’t what the brother did theft by deception?
