An Oakley woman pleaded not guilty today to charges she stole more than $15,000 from a 93-year-old Rossmoor woman for whom she was employed to provide at-home care.
Teresa Bryant, 49, is charged with elder financial abuse by a caretaker, a penalty punishable by up to four years in prison, said Jason Peck, prosecutor for the Contra Costa County District Attorney's elder abuse unit.
Bryant was arrested Aug. 20 after her employer's bank became suspicious about checks that had been deposited and contacted police.
