In 2004, Polk took out a 30-year, 6.375 percent mortgage for $45,620 with a Countrywide Home Loan office in Cuyahoga Falls, Ohio. The same day, she also took out an $11,380 line of credit.

Over the next couple of years, Polk missed payments on the 101-year-old home that she and her late husband purchased in 1970. In 2007, Fannie Mae assumed the mortgage and later filed for foreclosure.
If they bought the house in 1970, the mortgage was probably paid off.
Now in 2004, they gave a then 86 year old woman, $45k plus an $11k line of credit, but she couldn't make the payments?
Something stinks... where'd the money go?
