It would seem then, that the Trust for the girls was for the purpose of seeing them be able to be raised, without financial hardship, to the person who had complete custody of them.Since Mark had always been the stay-at-home dad, that money would be his and as the trustee, he would have complete control of it all.
Now, the custody battle between the families means that Teresa's brother, Patrick has control of the money for as long as Sievers cannot handle that business from jail. Were Bonnie, by some chance, gain custody, I'm sure Patrick would send Bonnie money for the girls. Under any circumstance, that money is theirs.
Now, it seems to me to be more likely that Mimi will be granted custody. Patrick will disburse funds for her to help support the girls.
3 million should be enough to see them through college, unless some "random" custodian got greedy. The girls would be supporting BS as well as themselves. :moo:
So, this case needs to see Sievers totally out of the financial loop. He seems pretty sure that he will be acquitted. Perhaps he thinks he's Casey Anthony!
I hope the hearing today ends the issue for once and for all. Sievers' meddling in the trust will be more difficult if Mimi has custody.
I'm just waiting for the hearing today to see if CWW agrees to testify. If forced to, I'm betting all we hear from him is a statement about his 5th Amendment rights.
