More details to this question:
My brother took elderly alcoholic father to open a TOD account. My dad was arrested a few hours later for driving while intoxicated on his way home. I even have a letter he wrote in his journal that says he had been drinking since 9am that morning he opened the TOD account. My dad would have reeked of booze and the bank let him put 85,000 in an account payable to my brother. Can I hold them responsible?

You could report the issue to Adult Protective Services. They have a hotline to call and a link for you to make a report online as well: https://www.dfps.state.tx.us/Contact_Us/report_abuse.asp
Also, you could contact the probate court in the county where you father lives and ask them to open an investigation to determine whether you father needs a guardianship so that someone will be appointed to be guardian of his person and estate.
