A 55-year-old Italian caregiver is being investigated on charges of having deceived and robbed an over-80 year old she was caring for in Monza , exploiting his emotional fragility.

Following an investigation by the Monza Flying Squad, the woman suffered the seizure of around 139 thousand euros ordered by the Monza Court.

According to what emerged from the police investigations, after being hired in 2019, the woman convinced the elderly man to open a joint bank account , into which 115 thousand euros were paid, proceeds from the sale of an apartment, which the 55-year-old stole with cash withdrawals, wire transfers and checks. The woman then, under a pretext, had the elderly man deliver a check for 50 thousand euros , as well as a ring with an emerald and one with a diamond.

Over time, he withdrew around 49 thousand euros from the 80-year-old's ATM. Finally he hid jewels and precious stones in a briefcase and stole the furs and clothes that belonged to the old man's dead wife.

When he realized he had been robbed, the pensioner went alone to the Monza Public Prosecutor's Office to formalize the complaint.

The caregiver must answer for circumvention of an incompetent person , undue use of credit or debit cards and theft , hypotheses of crime aggravated by the impaired defense given the age of the victim, by the seriousness of the damage caused and by the abuse of domestic relations.
