Parents property road illegally blocked by Federal Agency. Father proved this to the County who ordered gate removed but the County Attorney refuses to take action he was lawfully ordered to by commission.

Theres no feasible way to keep this in the family and him out of jail.. theres no way hes going to be able to pay you back that amount of money in a reasonable time.

Given how quickly he blew through almost 200k I don't even think you would see a penny back, as much as he promises and pleads for you to not go to the police.

Your best bet to see any of that money again is hire a lawyer with the remaining, I'm sure someone will be chomping at the bit to get your case, with the information provided I couldnt see a reason why you would lose in front of a judge. I even would think you could sue your bank for the money.. there should be some kind of security feature for over the phone transactions ESPECIALLY of that much, that's just ridiculous on their part.

Get a lawyer and stop talking to your family, and your bank. (For the time being)

I can't imagine how much it might hurt for you to have to take them to court, but I feel like it might be the best option for you in the long run.

I'm also sorry for the loss of your parents.
