(Rochester, MN)  —  A Wisconsin woman is facing charges after Rochester authorities say she stole nearly 57-thousand dollars from her elderly mother.  Monica Zanon was in court Thursday in Winona County accused of felony financial exploitation of a vulnerable adult, theft by false representation, and theft by swindle charges.  Prosecutors say Zanon allegedly took her mother, who has dementia, to the bank in Winona in September 2021.  Zanon had herself added to her mother’s account and withdrew nearly 56-thousand dollars, allegedly telling officials the money would go into a joint account at another bank.  Charges say Zanon later spent 50-thousand on her mortgage and put the rest into a new account in her name only.  Records show the victim’s son has power of attorney over her accounts.
