BEATRICE, Neb. (AP) - A 56-year-old southeast Nebraska woman has been accused of stealing nearly $45,000 from her boyfriend's mother.
The Beatrice Daily Sun reports that Rosemary Sanders is charged with felony theft and abuse of a vulnerable adult. Sanders' attorney didn't immediately return an Associated Press call on Wednesday, seeking comment on the charges.
According to an arrest warrant affidavit, Sanders was the woman's caregiver and was given access to her bank account to help her pay bills. The affidavit says Sanders wrote checks to herself and used other checks for personal use. The woman told police that she didn't approve any of the checks, other than one for a $400 loan to Sanders, who is from Cortland.
Sanders' next court hearing is scheduled for March 3.
