True Crime: The Court of Public Opinion - The Twisting a Mother’s Will - Ofstad v. Sarconi 

In Ofstad v. Sarconi, a court case in Colorado, Anna Sarconi's will was contested by her granddaughter, who alleged undue influence by Anna’s son, William Sarconi. The court scrutinized whether William, who arranged the will’s execution while Anna was hospitalized and in a weakened mental state, acted with undue influence to alter her estate distribution. 

The case highlights the complexities of inheritance law and the importance of preserving a testator's true intentions when they may be vulnerable to manipulation.
