Hopkinsville Police say from December 22nd to July 2nd 59-year-old Ann Medina took over $30,000 from a woman that was keeping it in a shoe box while making excuses to not take her to the bank to deposit the money. Medina had been the caregiver for the woman for 5 years.

Medina was arrested Tuesday and charged with theft by unlawful taking.
