A Clarskville caregiver who allegedly stole over $100,000 from her elderly client has been charged with neglect and identity theft. According to the TBI, caretaker Kathey Nance, age 67, drove her client to the bank and assisted her in withdrawing large sums of money that Nance then took possession of, and sent to another account through a Bitcoin ATM. The money withdrawals occurred from March 2021 through February 2022 and totaled approximately $116,000. The investigation revealed that Nance continued to take her client to the bank for withdrawals despite the daughter’s request that she stop doing so.

Nance has been charged with one count of Caregiver Neglect Elderly Adult and one count of Identity Theft – Obtain, Possess, Buy or Use Personal ID of Another. She was booked into the Montgomery County Jail on a $25,000 bond. (Photo courtesy TBI)
