Comedian Dane Cook’s half-brother is in even more trouble. The troublesome relative is facing 20 more counts of larceny in connection to allegations he embezzled more than $11 million Cook.
Darryl McCauley worked as the funnyman’s business manager for almost five years and was arrested in Massachusetts in December. He was accused of stealing from Cook’s fortune and forging a $3 million check to himself.
He has pleaded not guilty to eight counts of larceny, forgery and larceny by continuous scheme and is currently being held behind bars as he awaits a pre-trial hearing.
Now, an indictment for 20 charges going back to 2004 have been revealed.
Back in April, Cook commented on the case, calling it a “terrible betrayal”.
“I worked with my only half-brother for several years. (I) woke up one day and a lot of stuff was missing. There is a good chunk of money that is certainly not accounted for… Hopefully justice will be served and I can move on with my life,” he said.
