My case for clear elder abuse, in my opinion, of former Piero’s Restaurant owner Freddie Glusman, who is currently 88 years old, relates to Vickie Dehart’s knowledge of, relationship with, and indeed friendship with Freddie Glusman.
Dehart put together a $1.5 million loan to Piero restaurant’s longtime general manager, Evan Glusman, son of the owner and founder, Freddie. I find it hard to believe that Dehart did not have full knowledge that Evan was not the owner, only the general manager; Freddie was the owner. The $1.5 million loan went through Dehart’s Diamonds NV Management, LLC; Dehart is the sole officer for diamonds NV Management, LLC listed on the Nevada Secretary of State’s portal for business registrations.
Evan is reportedly being investigated by authorities for “… taking out an unauthorized loan against [Piero’s] and then threatening a shooting,” according to documents the 8 News Now Investigators obtained. (Please see: Las Vegas restaurateur, son of Piero’s founder, accused of loan fraud, shooting threat). We’ll see how far that goes and how long that investigation drags out, if it even is ongoing at all.
I wonder, did Vickie talk this over with her longtime friend and once-First Assistant US Attorney for the District of Nevada Sigal Chattah? Maybe the mess Vickie might have gotten herself into related to this loan (she clearly knew who owned Piero’s at the time and that he was an elderly senior citizen) was passed over for prosecution at the time by one of the top law enforcement officers in the State of Nevada, Sigal Chattah?
There clearly was a push by the DOJ to look into elder abuse crimes not even a year ago (See: DOJ Press release on 2025 World Elder Abuse Awareness Day). Vickie, you’ve knew for a fact for years, as we can clearly see in these photos from the Piero’s anniversary celebration in 2022 — four years ago — that Freddie was the founder and owner of Pieros. You appeared in the pictures with him, the now 88-year-old owner.
But yet, you still gave a $1.5 million loan to his son, Evan, knowing that he was not the owner and founder; Freddie was. Then there was the subsequent fire bombing (a couple of nefarious dude’s lit an improvised explosive device at the door of Piero’s on November 13, 2025). Sigal Chattah, at the time of that bombing event, was the Acting US Attorney for the District of Nevada. She even came to Piero’s in person to watch the unfolding investigation at the scene.

Chattah is not uninformed. She knows what’s going on regarding the Glusmans, Piero’s, and Tony D’Anna and Vickie Dehart and the $1.5 million loan. She knows what happened, but yet she turns a blind eye.
This is elder abuse. You’re aware of it, former acting US Attorney Chattah. You’re friends with everyone involved. You knew who owned it.
Ms. Chattah, why would you not investigate why this loan was given, whether or not there was prosecutable fraud and/or elder abuse associated with it? In my opinion, this is a classic case of elder abuse. So, where do you stand on this, Sigal? And where do you stand on this, Vickie?
No better time to investigate than when there still are fresh tracks to follow, so to speak. Wouldn’t you agree?
