TS Radio Network: Liz Rizzo and the tragic case of Rusty Warren

 Please join us this evening as Liz Rizzo reports on the aftermath of Rusty Warren's passing. 

Rusty Warren was a well known comedian from the 60’s. She had 7 gold albums from that period. Her cutting edge humor was signified in her popular routine, “Knockers Up!”. At 91, Rusty had fallen prey to guardianship trafficking. Abducted and held captive, she was told Liz didn't want to see her or talk to her. This is trauma based bonding by the book. Isolated, terrified and suffering from the onset of dementia, Rusty recently passed away, alone except for her captors.

“Rusty was my partner over 35 years, we built a life together. We have a Trust to protect our assets and she put her wishes in writing. Judge Lee in Tucson disregarded the Trust, taunted me about being gay and said I was not credible. I was legally Trustee of the Estate but they challenged it.”

As so many others have discovered, pre existing legal instruments are quickly discarded to allow the predators access to any assets. This was never about Rusty or her well-being. It was only about gaining access to her jointly held estate and stealing as much of it as possible. To do that, Rusty had to be taken prisoner and deprived of her legal capacity.
