Happy New Year!

You know, obviously knowing what happened there makes it difficult to come back.

In that he was involved somewhat.

I'm not saying he...

was without blame in any of this.

But certainly the lion's share of blame and the actual act itself of taking my father's life, I don't think rests on Leo's shoulders.

I think that she's the one with means, motive, and opportunity to have done this.

She got so greedy and so sure of herself that she was taking just immense sums of money.

And I think my father had finally gotten wise to it.

I think that he was finally fed up with being played for the fool.

She was telling my father, oh, they got a mortgage, they got all this, they got this.

And I remember my father's comment was, they couldn't have a mortgage, they don't have two nickels to rub together.

We had gone to the online property appraiser, which is all public record, and we typed in the addresses.

And sure enough, they were in her children's name with no mortgage and free and clear titles.

And we showed my dad that.

Yes.

And then that's when he says, I have business to take care of at home.

Never told me anything.

He refused to hire a forensic accountant.

He said, I'm not throwing good money after bad.
