BEATRICE, Neb. (AP) - A judge has dismissed charges that had been filed against a southeast Nebraska woman accused of stealing nearly $45,000 from her boyfriend's mother.
Fifty-six-year-old Rosemary Sanders, of Beatrice, had been charged with theft and abuse of a vulnerable adult. The charges were dismissed on Monday by Judge Daniel Bryan Jr., who was acting on a motion by Sanders' attorney. The judge says prosecutors didn't provide enough evidence to continue their action against Sanders.
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.
Gage County Attorney Roger Harris says he expects to refile charges.
