What happens

Last Will and Embezzlement is a 2012 documentary film about elder financial abuse, directed by Deborah Louise Robinson and written and produced by Robinson and Pamela S.K. Glasner. The film is narrated by Artie Pasquale, who played Burt Gervasi on The Sopranos. The film features an "impassioned" Mickey Rooney describing the financial abuse he endured at the hands of a family member. Rooney had testified before the United States Senate Special Committee on Aging in 2011 about the years of financial abuse he says he suffered from a relative. He also filed for a restraining order against a stepson. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
