LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WDRB) -- Indiana State Police said a man stole nearly $1 million from his grandmother while she lived in an assisted living facility in southern Indiana.
In a news release Thursday, ISP said Eric Dyer, a 54-year-old man from Batesburg, South Carolina, was named power of attorney over his grandmother in 2021 as she lives in a facility in Madison, Indiana. In May 2024, a bank reported "suspicious transactions" to police.
A review of bank records between 2022-24 showed Dyer withdrew nearly $1 million from his grandmother's bank accounts for his personal use and was also behind in paying her balance at the assisted living facility.
ISP arrested Dyer on Thursday at a hotel in Madison. He's charged with theft, money laundering, corrupt business influence, neglect of a dependent and elder abuse.
