SoFlo: WANNABE TV JUDGE
ACCUSED of Exploiting Elderly Woman -

Broward Circuit Judge Larry Seidlin who presided over the nationally-televised proceedings of the Anna Nicole Smith case has been accused of exploiting his elderly neighbor who has transferred thousands of dollars in real estate and other financial assets over to him and his family.

Seidlin is reportedly poised to abandon Florida soon in order to participate in a Los Angeles-based TV show deal thousands of miles away on the West Coast, leaving it unclear who is responsible for the 81-year-old woman, which could require the intervention of the Office of Public Guardian on behalf of the senior citizen's best interests.

Meanwhile, a request has been initiated for Gov Crist to appoint an outside agency to investigate Seidlin.
