Dianne Feinstein’s daughter claims her mom is an elder abuse victim, per report.

Katherine Feinstein Alleges Elder Abuse Against ‌Her Mother, Sen. ⁢Dianne Feinstein

In ‍a recent court filing, Katherine Feinstein, the daughter of Democratic Sen. Dianne Feinstein‍ of California, made a shocking claim that her mother is a victim of⁤ elder ⁤abuse.

Katherine alleges that the co-trustees ⁤of a trust associated with⁤ the late Richard Blum, the senator’s husband, have failed to fund a trust⁢ created‌ by him. Richard⁣ Blum, a wealthy businessman, passed away last February, leaving behind an estimated ⁤$1 ⁤billion.

According to SF Gate, Katherine, who recently‍ surrendered a partial power of attorney to her mother, went to court on⁢ Aug. 8 to accuse Michael Klein, ​Marc Scholvinck, and Verett Mims of financial elder abuse. She ⁣claims that they have purposely ‍withheld regular payments from the fund, hoping that​ most of it will ⁢eventually go to Blum’s children.

Katherine ⁤Feinstein ​has asked the ‍court to suspend Klein, Scholvinck, ⁢and Mims from managing⁣ the account. However, an attorney for‌ Klein and Scholvinck disputes these allegations, stating that the trustees have acted ethically and appropriately at all times.

These allegations of elder abuse come at a‍ time when ‌Sen. Feinstein ‍is facing calls to step down ‍from​ her ‌seat due to concerns about ⁣her health and ability to represent her ​constituents. Despite being the country’s longest-serving senator at 90 years ⁤old, Feinstein has vowed to finish her term but will not seek re-election‍ next fall.

Lawmakers from both parties, including Reps. Alexandria​ Ocasio-Cortez, Rashida Tlaib, and Ro Khanna, have‍ called on Feinstein​ to⁢ retire immediately, citing ​her age and health as reasons for her to step down.

It remains to be seen how this elder abuse allegation will impact Sen. Feinstein’s ⁢political ⁣career and whether any further⁤ legal action will be taken.
