Since they aren't walking door-to-door at this time, the Warwick Beacon has extended an invitation to the Warwick mayoral candidates to introduce themselves to the voters in a 5 to 6 minute video. Democratic candidate Carel Callahan Bainum is featured in this video.

The projo article is confusing. It doesn't say who accused her of that ("elder predator").

I just read the article. Its apparent from the article what this lady did. Here is a quote from the article:
"Bainum, whose phone number at Sunnyside Drive was disconnected, could not be reached for comment. She has been the subject of much litigation in Rhode Island courts."
"That case involved Bainum’s relationship with Michael Koczan, a World War II Army Air Corps veteran who died in 2013 at age 96. Bainum was visiting Koczan in the center’s secure dementia ward on Oct. 16, 2009, when a Coventry officer asked her to leave at the center’s request. She was told, too, that Koczan’s daughter was seeking to halt all Bainum’s visits to her father.
Bainum continued to visit Koczan, wearing the wig. Staff eventually recognized her, leading Coventry police to charge her with willful trespass."
need any more? I dont.

Superior Court Judge Jeffrey Lanphear in 2008 barred Bainum from contacting Baligian and ordered her not to spend or transfer any assets outside of her normal personal expenses until the civil-fraud case was resolved. He found that Bainum had “hoodwinked” Baligian, who died in July 2008 at 98, into signing the new loan documents.
As the case moved forward, Bainum failed to appear for court dates and depositions

It seems the dog lady has her own express lane in the court system...Must be desperate for a job, so she thinks she is qualified to be a politician? Following her logic the ward 6 council woman should run for Governor.
