FL-AG v. Bitting

Kimberly Bitting allegedly defrauded a Florida senior out of $350,000. According to the Leesburg Police Department investigation, Bitting obtained power of attorney over a neighbor and then unlawfully used the authority to issue checks from the victim’s accounts to Bitting’s account. Bitting also issued checks to accounts belonging to co-defendants Lara Larsen and Ashton Silvis. Bitting falsely framed the checks to Silvis and Larsen as payments for caregiving and other work not performed. Additionally, Bitting purchased two parcels of land using the victim’s funds.
