A Dubuque man who pled guilty to misappropriating over $225-thousand dollars from his dying mother’s financial accounts while serving as the Power of Attorney has been sentenced.
Yesterday 56-year old Kenneth Dean was handed a suspended 5 year prison sentence and order to serve 5 years of probation.
Dean was arrested by Dubuque police in April 2023 and charged with dependent adult abuse by financial exploitation.
Dean was accused of misappropriating funds from October 2021 to the time of his mother’s death in June of 2022, during which time she was reportedly having cognitive issues.
