Clay County woman accused of draining $100K from disabled person in her care

A Clay County woman is accused of taking more than $100,000 from a disabled adult whose finances she was temporarily responsible for managing, according to the Clay County Sheriff’s Office.

Inez Sullivan was arrested after an investigation by the sheriff’s Guardianship Task Force.

Detectives were told Aug. 17 that the victim’s funds were gone. The victim had multiple health conditions and was unable to manage their own assets, the Sheriff’s Office said.

After the victim’s rights were restored, investigators said they discovered they could not access their money.

Investigators said Sullivan transferred money from the victim’s account to her own account for more than seven years. She also allegedly wrote checks to herself and used the victim’s debit card.
