Attorney General Josh Kaul announced that Terry Lynn Culver, 64, of Oshkosh, has been convicted of eight class H felonies in relation to the theft of over $426,000 from a 92-year-old resident of a nursing home. The charges are the result of a joint elder abuse and tax fraud investigation by the Wisconsin Department of Justice (DOJ) and Wisconsin Department of Revenue (DOR). According to the criminal complaint, Culver acted as power of attorney for the victim. After the victim moved into a nursing home, Culver removed over $426,000 from the victim’s bank accounts and spent the money on home improvements and vehicles and at bars, restaurants, and casinos as far off as Las Vegas, Nevada. The complaint also alleges that Culver filed false and fraudulent tax returns with the Department of Revenue for five years.
