Another bombshell indictment has ripped the mask off America’s so-called “justice system,” and this time the rot allegedly runs straight through the black robe.
Federal prosecutors have charged four Detroit-area insiders, including a sitting Michigan judge, in what authorities describe as a years-long scheme to loot incapacitated individuals and their estates, stealing hundreds of thousands of dollars from people the court was supposed to protect.
According to the U.S. Department of Justice, the defendants are:
- Nancy Williams, 59
- Attorney Avery Bradley, 72
- Judge Andrea Bradley-Baskin, 46
- Dwight Rashad, 69
Bradley-Baskin is the daughter of Avery Bradley and currently serves as a judge on Michigan’s 36th District Court.
All four were charged by federal indictment with conspiracy to commit wire fraud. Prosecutors also charged Bradley with wire fraud, Bradley, Bradley-Baskin, and Rashad with multiple counts of money laundering, and Bradley-Baskin with making a false statement to federal investigators.
