A Polk County attorney is accused of stealing millions of dollars while draining people's life savings, including his own, to gamble at the Seminole Hard Rock Casino in Tampa. Jason Penrod, 47, is the owner of Family Elder Law Firm in Lake Wales. He was arrested on Wednesday evening as an investigation is underway into him allegedly stealing more than $1.7 million from the trust of a Polk County resident who has since passed. In that case, Penrod is accused of diverting the money from his client's trust into his personal bank account. He then wired that money to the Hard Rock over the course of three months to gamble. The money came from David Anderson, who established the trust in 2014 and listed his adult children as the sole beneficiaries of his estate. He died in October 2021.
