Over the objection of the prosecution, a man and his mother pleaded guilty Monday to bilking a Palm Springs couple out of nearly $1 million in a plea deal that allows them to avoid jail time for elder abuse.
Mary Agnes Stewart, 65, and Joseph Stewart Cunningham, 47, were each charged with 19 counts of theft of more than $400 from an elder, 19 counts of diversion of more than $1,000 in contract funds and 18 sentence-enhancing allegations that they caused more than $200,000 in property damage.
