Sitting Judge and Three Others Charged with Scheme to Steal Hundreds of Thousands of Dollars from Vulnerable and Incapacitated Wards

Friday, January 30, 2026

For Immediate Release

U.S. Attorney's Office, Eastern District of Michigan

DETROIT - Four Detroit-area residents, including a sitting judge and a local attorney, were charged for their roles in a years-long scheme to embezzle money from incapacitated individuals, United States Attorney Jerome F. Gorgon, Jr. announced today.

Gorgon was joined in the announcement by Jennifer Runyan, Special Agent in Charge of the Federal Bureau of Investigation Detroit Field Office, and Karen Wingerd, Special Agent in Charge of the Internal Revenue Service-Criminal Investigations Detroit Field Office.


Nancy Williams, 59, Avery Bradley, 72, Andrea Bradley-Baskin, 46, and Dwight Rashad, 69, all Detroit residents, were charged via indictment with conspiracy to commit wire fraud. The indictment also charges Bradley with one count of wire fraud, Bradley, Bradley-Baskin, and Rashad with several counts of money laundering, and Bradley-Baskin with a single count of making a false statement to federal law enforcement agent.

According to the indictment, probate courts regularly appoint guardians and conservators to manage the personal and financial affairs of adults, known as wards, who have been found by the court to lack the capacity to do so themselves. Guardians and conservators are fiduciaries who are obligated to act in the best interests of their wards. The indictment alleges that Nancy Williams owned Guardian and Associates, an agency that was appointed as a fiduciary by the Wayne County Probate Court for incapacitated wards in over 1,000 cases. Avery Bradley is an attorney, who, along with his daughter (and fellow attorney) Andrea Bradley-Baskin, operated a law firm that often represented Guardian and Associates in Wayne County Probate Court and otherwise practiced regularly in that court. Bradley-Baskin is currently a district judge on Michigan’s 36th District Court. Dwight Rashad operated a series of group homes and residential facilities for elderly individuals, including wards, who needed support and care.

The indictment alleges that the four defendants conspired to systematically embezzle funds from wards, and to obtain and retain money for themselves that rightly belonged to the wards and the wards’estates. The indictment sets forth numerous examples of the co-conspirators working together to misappropriate money belonging to wards. In one instance, Bradley-Baskin is alleged to have used $70,000 in a ward’s funds to purchase an ownership stake in a local bar. In another, Bradley, Williams, and Rashad are alleged to have taken for themselves some $203,000 in funds from a ward’s legal settlement, with none of the money being used to benefit the ward. Williams is alleged to have paid Rashad rent for wards who did not live in one of Rashad’s homes. Bradley-Baskin, in yet another case, is alleged to have used money embezzled from the estate of a ward to pay a two-year lease on a new Ford Expedition for herself.

“We respect the authority that covers a black robe. This state judge and her cronies allegedly abused that high honor for personal gain by preying on the needy protected by the court. This would be a grievous abuse of our public trust,” said U.S. Attorney Gorgon.

“Regardless of a person’s position in society, no one is above the law. These four defendants allegedly conspired to steal from some of our most vulnerable citizens — looting bank accounts, exploiting legal authority, and profiting off those who relied on them for care and protection," said Jennifer Runyan, Special Agent in Charge of the FBI Detroit Field Office. "Let me be clear: if you prey on the vulnerable, we will find you and bring you to justice. Finally, I want to recognize our FBI Detroit Area Corruption Task Force, alongside our partners at the IRS Criminal Investigations Detroit Field Office, for their dedicated work on behalf of these victims, as well as the Wayne County Probate Court for bringing this matter to our attention and assisting the investigation."

“No matter who you are, or what your position is, it is entirely unacceptable to help yourself to money that is not yours. What makes these allegations so disturbing is that the victims are part of very vulnerable population and trusted the accused to act in their best interest,” said Karen Wingerd, Special Agent in Charge, Detroit Field Office, IRS Criminal Investigation. “IRS-CI is proud to work alongside our law enforcement partners to protect the financial well-being of the vulnerable and root out those who threaten their security.”

An indictment is only a charge and is not evidence of guilt. All defendants are presumed innocent until proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt in a court of law.

This case is being investigated by the Federal Bureau of Investigation, and the Internal Revenue Service-Criminal Investigations. 

The case is being prosecuted by Assistant United States Attorneys Robert A. Moran and John Neal.

MINDD'S TRIBUTE TO JANET PHELAN 


Este é o tipo de história que exige que façamos tudo o que estiver ao nosso alcance para que a Fox News e o FBI saibam que esse tipo de crime está acontecendo com americanos vulneráveis ​​em todo o país.

A história de Alicia é apenas uma entre centenas/milhares que a maioria dos americanos não consegue compreender como esses crimes horríveis estão sendo cometidos por juízes, advogados, tutores legais, até mesmo médicos e outros.

Foi Janet quem expôs tantos juízes corruptos que sistematicamente aceitavam pagamentos fraudulentos de hipotecas em troca de decisões favoráveis, pressionadas por advogados, tutores e outros indivíduos corruptos.

O maior número possível de nós deve compartilhar nossas histórias com o FBI em homenagem a todos os esforços de Janet para impedir que esses bastardos destruam tantas famílias americanas e matem nossos entes queridos.

Procuradoria dos EUA, Distrito Leste de Michigan

DETROIT - Quatro residentes da área de Detroit, incluindo uma juíza em exercício e um advogado local, foram acusados por seus papéis em um esquema de anos para desviar dinheiro de indivíduos incapacitados, anunciou hoje o Procurador dos Estados Unidos, Jerome F. Gorgon, Jr.

Gorgon foi acompanhado no anúncio por Jennifer Runyan, Agente Especial Responsável pelo Escritório de Campo de Detroit do Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), e Karen Wingerd, Agente Especial Responsável pelo Escritório de Campo de Detroit de Investigações Criminais do Internal Revenue Service (IRS).

Nancy Williams, 59, Avery Bradley, 72, Andrea Bradley-Baskin, 46, e Dwight Rashad, 69, todos residentes de Detroit, foram acusados via indiciamento por conspiração para cometer fraude eletrônica. O indiciamento também acusa Bradley de uma contagem de fraude eletrônica; Bradley, Bradley-Baskin e Rashad de várias contagens de lavagem de dinheiro; e Bradley-Baskin de uma única contagem de prestar declaração falsa a um agente federal de aplicação da lei.

De acordo com o indiciamento, tribunais de inventário e sucessões nomeiam regularmente tutores e curadores para gerir os assuntos pessoais e financeiros de adultos, conhecidos como curatelados (wards), que foram considerados pelo tribunal como sem capacidade para fazê-lo sozinhos. 

Tutores e curadores são fiduciários obrigados a agir no melhor interesse de seus curatelados.


 O indiciamento alega que Nancy Williams era proprietária da Guardian and Associates, uma agência que foi nomeada como fiduciária pelo Tribunal de Inventário do Condado de Wayne para curatelados incapacitados em mais de 1.000 casos.

 Avery Bradley é um advogado que, juntamente com sua filha (e colega advogada) Andrea Bradley-Baskin, operava um escritório de advocacia que frequentemente representava a Guardian and Associates no Tribunal de Inventário do Condado de Wayne e, de outra forma, advogava regularmente naquele tribunal. 

Bradley-Baskin é atualmente juíza distrital no 36º Tribunal Distrital de Michigan. Dwight Rashad operava uma série de casas de repouso e instalações residenciais para indivíduos idosos, incluindo curatelados, que precisavam de apoio e cuidado.

O indiciamento alega que os quatro réus conspiraram para desviar sistematicamente fundos dos curatelados e para obter e reter dinheiro para si mesmos que legitimamente pertencia aos curatelados e aos seus espólios. 

O indiciamento apresenta inúmeros exemplos dos co-conspiradores trabalhando juntos para apropriar-se indevidamente de dinheiro pertencente aos curatelados. 

Em um caso, Bradley-Baskin é supostamente acusada de ter usado US$ 70.000 de fundos de um curatelado para comprar uma participação societária em um bar local. 

Em outro, Bradley, Williams e Rashad supostamente teriam tomado para si cerca de US$ 203.000 de fundos de um acordo judicial de um curatelado, sem que nenhum dinheiro fosse usado para beneficiar o curatelado.

 Williams supostamente teria pago aluguel a Rashad por curatelados que não viviam em uma das casas de Rashad. 

Bradley-Baskin, em mais um caso, supostamente teria usado dinheiro desviado do espólio de um curatelado para pagar um contrato de aluguel (lease) de dois anos de um novo Ford Expedition para si mesma.

“Respeitamos a autoridade que cobre uma toga preta. Esta juíza estadual e seus comparsas supostamente abusaram dessa alta honra para ganho pessoal, predando os necessitados protegidos pelo tribunal. Isso seria um abuso gravíssimo de nossa confiança pública”, disse o Procurador dos EUA, Gorgon.

“Independentemente da posição de uma pessoa na sociedade, ninguém está acima da lei. Estes quatro réus supostamente conspiraram para roubar de alguns de nossos cidadãos mais vulneráveis — saqueando contas bancárias, explorando a autoridade legal e lucrando sobre aqueles que dependiam deles para cuidado e proteção", disse Jennifer Runyan, Agente Especial Responsável pelo Escritório de Campo do FBI em Detroit. 

"Deixe-me ser clara: se você predar os vulneráveis, nós o encontraremos e o levaremos à justiça. Finalmente, quero reconhecer nossa Força-Tarefa de Corrupção da Área de Detroit do FBI, ao lado de nossos parceiros no Escritório de Campo de Investigações Criminais do IRS em Detroit, pelo seu trabalho dedicado em nome dessas vítimas, bem como ao Tribunal de Inventário do Condado de Wayne por trazer este assunto à nossa atenção e auxiliar na investigação."

“Não importa quem você seja, ou qual seja sua posição, é inteiramente inaceitável servir-se de dinheiro que não é seu. O que torna essas alegações tão perturbadoras é que as vítimas fazem parte de uma população muito vulnerável e confiaram nos acusados para agir em seu melhor interesse”, disse Karen Wingerd, Agente Especial Responsável, Escritório de Campo de Detroit, Investigação Criminal do IRS. “O IRS-CI orgulha-se de trabalhar ao lado de nossos parceiros de aplicação da lei para proteger o bem-estar financeiro dos vulneráveis e erradicar aqueles que ameaçam sua segurança.”

Um indiciamento é apenas uma acusação e não é evidência de culpa.

 Todos os réus são presumidos inocentes até que se prove a culpa além de qualquer dúvida razoável em um tribunal de justiça.

Este caso está sendo investigado pelo Federal Bureau of Investigation e pelo Internal Revenue Service-Criminal Investigations.

O caso está sendo processado pelos Assistentes do Procurador dos Estados Unidos, Robert A. Moran e John Neal.
