Read More![April 12-13, 2019 San Antonio Express-News coverage of Charlie Thrash's guardianship trial, where attorney Laura Cavaretta, representing Charlie's estranged grand-niece who got herself appointed as Guardian of Charlie's once-was $3.4 Million estate, has some gall, in our opinion, stating "Laura [Martinez] was trying to scare Mr. Thrash that the guardians were out to get his money," and "if our requests are not granted, Mr. Thrash will continue to be intimidated and his assets drained." Given that Laura Cavaretta and her law partners are directly responsible for the approximately $1 Million that has been removed from Charlie Thrash's estate since he was first put under guardianship on November 15, 2019 by then-Judge Tom Rickhoff, and that Laura Cavaretta and her law partners are largely responsible for the fact that Charlie's expenses have increased 270%, from $10,000/month - which was what Charlie & Laura spent before guardianship - to up to $37,000/month, now that the court has taken over Charlie's life, and thrown Laura out of it, in our opinion, Laura Cavaretta should be so deeply ashamed of herself and her law firm for their legal work against Charlie Thrash's freedom and rights, much of it to convert Charlie's assets into legal fees paid to her firm.](https://i1.wp.com/freecharliethrash.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/04/2019-04-13_SAEN_Print-version_Charlies-court-case_Cavaretta-on-asset-drain.jpg?resize=150%2C150&ssl=1)
