David Angell's Cape Code Properties

Below are links to zip files containing screen captures of property, mortgage, estate tax and power of attorney documents related to David Angell's three properties on Cape Cod. This is not to say that Angell held title on three separate properties concurrently. Rather, they represent an ascending scale of size and value, bought and sold over a period of 16 years, in keeping with the growth in Angell's net worth, which amounted to $55 million at the time of his alleged death. These documents are available to the public through the Barnstable Country Registry of Deeds website.

*_{The couple's mortgage on this property was approved 12/88 but I have yet to confirm the actual date of purchase.}

*_{As mentioned in an earlier post, the sale date of this property directly contradicts evidence given at a hijack lawsuit brought by 'the Angell estate'. Lawyers acting on behalf of the estate claimed that the couple had sold this property and were residents of Providence, Rhode Island at the time of their alleged deaths. The claims made by the estate's legal team also directly contradict most of the memorials and biographies to be found on the web, the vast majority of which place David and Lynn Angell at their home on Cape Code during the summer of 2001.}

149 Hardings Lane Realty Trust

149 Hardings Lane (the property that was under construction at the time of the couple's alleged deaths) was acquired by a trust, specifically the "149 Hardings Lane Realty Trust", of which Perry Oretzky was trustee. Below is a link to a zip file containing screen captures of the Trust's ten-page Declaration of Trust, which is interesting for what it doesn't tell us as much as what it does.

What's intriguing here is that although the document specifically refers to a Schedule of Beneficiaries appended to the Declaration itself, the Schedule can NOT be found on the Barnstable Register of Deeds website. The Declaration does not name the beneficiaries but refers to them as follows:

"The beneficiaries named in said initial Schedule of Beneficiaries are husband and wife..." --(page 4, section 3.6)

"The beneficiaries under the initial Schedule of Beneficiaries are residents of California at the date of this instrument..." --(page 6, section 3.7)

Needless to say, if we could lay our hands on a copy of this Schedule then we'd have absolutely no reason to indulge in wild speculation of the "Oretzky-is-also-a-married-resident-of-California" type...

Power of Attorney

David and Lynn Angell appear to have granted Perry Oretzky Power of Attorney in April 1992. David and Lynn Angell's signatures appear on all relevant documents prior to this date, whereas from this point onwards all their real estate deals were handled and signed by Perry Oretzky.

David and Lynn Angell: Their Final Domicile Pt3

This article was originally posted on Let's Roll and follows on from my earlier post on the same topic, which can be found @ http://firemansams.blogspot.com/2010/11/david-and-lynn-angell-their-final.html. The original version of this article can be found @ http://letsrollforums.com/showpost.php?p=191640&postcount=74

Following on from my last post about the hijack lawsuit brought by David Angell's relatives, here's more damning evidence against the arguments made in this case as regards the couple's domicile at the time of their deaths. To recap, the lawyers argued that the couple had sold their home in California AND their existing property on Cape Cod.

"The couple had sold their long-held summer home on Cape Cod, and their new Cape Cod vacation home was still under construction, the plaintiffs’ lawyers said."

However, property deeds available on the Barnstable County Registry of Deeds website indicate that the couple's property on Cape Cod, 21 Shattuck Lane, Chatham was not sold until after their alleged deaths. This property was sold in March 2002 by Perry Oretzky, acting in his capacity as executor of the couple's wills.

So, on the one hand we have David's brother, Kenneth Angell, telling us that David and Lynn had hosted a family wedding at their home on Cape Cod just prior to 9/11, and on the other we have the same Kenneth Angell involved in a lawsuit alleging that the couple had sold their Cape Cod home and were residing in a non-existent property on a non-existent street in Providence, Rhode Island!

Is there anything to this beyond the rather obvious money-grubbing, given that there was a strong financial incentive for 'proving' that the couple were residents of Rhode Island, rather than California or Massachusetts? The projo.com article has this to say:

"Under California and Massachusetts law, “recovery is largely limited to economic loss to dependants” and Angell had no children. Under Rhode Island law, damages would be calculated by projecting Angell’s lifetime earnings, minus lifetime expenses, defense lawyers said."

One can only wonder at the standard of 'evidence' accepted by the court in question, given that the below documents were not exactly difficult to come by and demonstrate that there is something very, very wrong here.
