A nursing home nurse has pleaded guilty on four counts of theft. The nurse stole a credit card from a patient charging over $5,000 to the card. The money was used to withdraw money from ATM machines as well as purchase clothing and food from restaurants.
The patient died shortly after the theft occurred. She was bedridden and 78 years old. The attorney prosecuting the case had this to say, “Anytime you have someone taking advantage of such a vulnerable population, it needs to be dealt with very seriously.” For more, read the story.
