Pruitt says five counts of exploitation of the elderly were filed Wednesday in Oklahoma and Cleveland counties against 32-year-old Brian Howell Thornburg. Prosecutors allege that Thornburg, operating under the company name Nationwide Tree Service, targeted elderly residents in Norman, Moore and Del City. Victims report that after making an initial payment for tree services, Thornburg claimed the tree was diseased and needed to be removed for an additional payment. Victims' family members say the trees were not diseased as Thornburg claimed. In one case, Thornburg returned to an elderly woman's home numerous times for a total payment of nearly $11,000. Online court records do not indicate whether Thornburg has an attorney.
