An elderly woman\u2019s caretaker allegedly withdrew more than $50,000 from her accounts over many months to fund repeated bingo sessions at nearby machines.<\/p>\n

The victim, who was 81 years old, hired the 42-year-old woman Sinora John to manage her daily needs after suffering a broken femur and other fractures in April 2025 that left her bedridden, reports<\/a> Post Guam.<\/p>\n

The pair formed a close bond during the arrangement, which allowed the caretaker to obtain debit card information and make repeated unauthorized cash withdrawals, sometimes reaching $900 in a single day at ATMs.<\/p>\n

The victim uncovered the activity on August 15th after retrieving mail for the first time in over a year.<\/p>\n

Upon confrontation, the caretaker admitted taking the funds, apologized, and proposed repayment through installments while telling police she knew the PIN and used the card without permission for personal expenses.<\/p>\n

\u201cAfter checking with her bank, however, the victim discovered that over time those unauthorized transactions exceeded $50,000. Sinora was confronted by the victim again, and again she admitted to taking the funds for her personal use and begged the victim not to contact the police\u2026<\/em><\/p>\n

She admitted to withdrawing upwards of $900 per day, mostly to play bingo. In her written statement, she confessed to stealing about $50,000.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

Bank records later showed total losses of $50,366.89 across the period.<\/p>\n

In addition to charges of elder financial exploitation, a crime that can carry a sentence of up to 20 years under a law enacted in 2019, John is also facing allegations of identity theft and fraudulent credit card use. Prosecutors have further filed two special allegations seeking enhanced penalties based on the victim\u2019s vulnerability.<\/p>\n

The caretaker has no prior criminal history and was released on a $10,000 personal recognizance bond.<\/p>\n

Conviction on all counts plus special allegations for targeting a vulnerable victim could result in 45 to 85 years behind bars.<\/p>\n
