Fire Captains Accused of Exploiting Elderly Woman | Sacramento Kings News

Two Sacramento Fire Department captains are under investigation for allegedly exploiting a vulnerable elderly woman by buying her home—then reselling it for a massive profit—while using city resources and skipping permits. The woman, Christie Evangelista, received only $21,000 from the sale, despite the property flipping for $460,000. Her son says she was suffering from dementia and was misled, even losing personal items like his father’s ashes. Though the investigation found their actions constituted fraud and abuse, both captains remain on the force—Mora still a captain, Muraki demoted and suspended. The real estate agent involved denies wrongdoing, calling the deal fair. This case exposes a shocking breach of public trust, fueled by authority and greed.
