On That’s Amaury’s News and Commentary podcast:

#1 Recently former San Francisco Giant first baseman and Hall of Famer Orlando Cepeda has been marred in a legal battle with his daughter in law Camille Cepeda who says she should be the authorized conservator of Cepeda’s financial and medical affairs.

#2 Camille who is married to Cepeda’s son Ali and Ali’s brother support Camille’s attempt to win conservatorship because they claim that Cepeda no longer can care for himself, a petition says Cepeda has dementia. Ali’s two other brothers stand with Cepeda.

#3 The petition goes onto to say that Cepeda no longer is able to provide for his personal needs and needs help with food, clothing, shelter, physical health and is at risk to be influenced.

#4 Cepeda’s attorney responded to Camille’s petition saying he was able to make his own decisions medically, physically. That his lawyer continued saying that Cepeda had a recent psychiatric evaluation twice the last one May 21st and that it was concluded that the former Giant-Cardinal slugger can make medical choices and financial decisions on his own.

#5 The timing of Camille’s request for conservatorship is under suspicion according to Cepeda and that Cepeda says there are “numerous shocking, unauthorized charges” made by Camille on Cepeda’s financial accounts, including luxury items from Louis Vutton, Nordstrom, wine club memberships and car rental payments all totaling $15,000 just for the month of December.
