Man admits stealing from grandparents

WHITE PLAINS, N.Y. (AP) -- A disbarred Westchester County lawyer has admitted in court that he stole $310,000 from his grandparents.

Chase Caro of White Plains pleaded guilty Monday to grand larceny and has been sentenced to 2½ to 7½ years in prison.

A spokesman for Westchester District Attorney Janet DiFiore says the 49-year-old Caro admitted stealing money meant for his grandparents' trust fund.

Caro already had pleaded guilty to another theft of more than $470,000 from another elderly client. He was sentenced to 2 to 6 years on that count. The sentences will run at the same time.

Caro is the son of Robert Caro, the Pulitzer Prize-winning biographer of Robert Moses and Lyndon Johnson.
