I am sorry to hear about the passing of your husband. I don't know how old you are but I'm guessing that you are also probably in your elder years. The first thing to do is not worry. I don't think anyone wants to hang on their wall that they convicted an older woman for what looks like fraud.

You may want to call up your state bar association and perhaps there might be an attorney who will help you pro bono. It doesn't seem like a very difficult issue. Listening to them will not hurt you. Speaking is something you need to be more careful of. The first step is to find out what they want.

It is probably very clear to them that you are a victim of fraud - after all, why are you the one living with your dog in a trailer? So don't worry and just be careful with what you say and perhaps you can explain to them how you feel about talking to them.
