Since I am a lawyer, it would be unethical for me to advise you to hire someone to hunt this piece of shit down and break his kneecaps, sooooo my advice would be to contact the California Attorney General's office and try to get them to investigate. Exploitation of the elderly is a hot topic, so you might get some help there.
Not sure about CA law, but here in S. Carolina we have an Unfair Trade Practices Act that allows for attorney's fees, treble damages, and punitive damages for this sort of thing. The problem can be collecting the damages from a slippery one like you have described. You may also want to contact a consumer lawyer in Valencia to get another opinion.
I won't say what I would do if I stood in your shoes. Good luck.
