Episode Details

A 90-year-old woman lost nearly $7,000 to a romance scam after being promised marriage and a home—only to face eviction. Her family intervened, and the Macomb County Elder Justice Alliance stepped in, uniting law enforcement, prosecutors, legal aid, and advocates to protect seniors from exploitation. Many abusers are trusted acquaintances, and cases often go unreported—making this network vital. With community education and coordinated support, Nancy found safety, moved in with family, and regained independence. Her story highlights the urgency of elder justice and the power of community action. If you suspect abuse, reach out to Adult Protective Services, law enforcement, or a trusted loved one—early intervention saves lives.
