According to prosecutors, Green was a family friend of the victim and began assisting with his care after he experienced cognitive decline in 2018.
Officials allege that during that period, Green gained access to the victim’s bank accounts and made changes that allowed her to withdraw funds.
Investigators said Green continued to access and embezzle funds from the accounts, including after the victim’s death, totaling more than $20,000.
Green was charged by the Michigan Department of Attorney General in December 2024.
She is scheduled to be sentenced on July 16, 2026, in Oakland County’s 6th Circuit Court.
