NEW YORK (AP) -- Authorities in New York are looking for a woman accused of marrying a brain-damaged man and ingratiating herself with a demented 89-year-old to take more than $60,000.
A judge issued an arrest warrant for 27-year-old Cher Thompson after she balked at a court appearance Thursday and disappeared without going before the judge. The court date had been postponed after she collapsed in a courthouse hallway Tuesday.
Her lawyer didn't return a call Thursday. No telephone number for her could be found.
Thompson was out on $15,000 bail after her October arrest on charges including grand larceny.
A court complaint says she took $60,000 from the 89-year-old man's bank accounts last summer, after helping herself to the accounts of the brain-injured 63-year-old she married in 2008.
