Stan denied the accusations, going as far as saying that he wished everyone “abused” him like his daughter did. In another instance, Stan filed a case against Joan's former business associate Jerry Olivarez, accusing him of manipulating his decision regarding handing over the power of attorney. Stan told the media that Jerry wanted him to transfer the power of attorney to him and sign a fake charity cheque of $300,000. Stan also accused one of Joan's friends, Keya Morgan, of trying to seclude him from his friends and family members. In the last days of his life, he revealed that he had to ward off multiple people who were trying to attach themselves to his fortune ever since his wife passed away. He added that the only person he trusted was Joan, and therefore, he had passed the authority of his financial affairs to her.
