The woman was given access to a debit card in March of 2015, to pay for ongoing medical bills for her terminally ill brother.

The man discovered the woman had withdrawn $68,529 from his account after checking over bank statements and identifying a number of discrepancies.

Police were notified, and the woman was charged on Saturday with dishonestly obtaining a financial advantage by deception.
