The on-going legal tragedy of conservatorship abuse, the criminalization of the ward to justify the legalized theft that takes place, and the author’s attempt to fight back. A Tarantino-esque tale where the protagonist has been falsely adjudicated insane, a danger to himself and society, but the only society he is truly a danger to is the dark one inside the halls of justice, where the crooks work in secret and wear black robes, demanding to be called “your Honor”. It would read like gonzo-fiction if it weren’t all true. Continue following this story without end, filled with intrigue, heartbreak, and real life drama.
An extremely important read regarding conservatorship abuse.
I commend the author for their bravery, honesty, and vulnerability.
Please do read this book, though I wish to preface that there are instances where the author discusses race (e.g., the "N" word is used [the author says for historical purposes, only] and generalizations/slurs about Greek/Romani people are used), religion, LGBTQIA+ folx (transphobia, specifically), and sexual assault that are not politically correct or otherwise edited with a 2024 lens.
My recommendation about reading this still stands when it is purely read as a book on conservatorship abuse in Tennessee, but I want the reader to be prepared for potentially activating content.
