Mother-daughter duo conned elderly man out of money, car, police say

Franks
El Segundo police searched Friday for half of a mother-daughter duo that allegedly conned a 90-year-old man into giving them thousands of dollars in cash and expensive items, including a Mercedes-Benz.

Authorities arrested suspect Debby Frank, 52, last week at her tarot card reading business in Harbor City. Her 29-year-old daughter, Rosa, remained at large.

The elder Frank has been named as a suspect in similar schemes in San Diego County, said Det. Eric Atkinson. But in the El Segundo case, the mother and daughter are accused of exploiting a senior citizen during a two-week period for about $20,000 in cash alone.
