Health Aide Accused of Theft

A Torring­ton woman hired as a home health aide for a Goshen senior with Alzheimer’s told police she spent thousands of her client’s dollars on tattoos, drugs and gambling.

Police arrested Audrey Cur­tis, 39, at her 256 Riverside Ave. home Wednesday and held her on $5,000 bond on a charge of first-degree larceny, the latest in a string of charges filed by lo­cal police in recent years.

Curtis was previously charged in March with stealing more than $35,000 from the es­tate of a man with whom she had a relationship. Drug charges are also pending, along with charges of first-degree burglary, violation of a protec­tive order, criminal mischief and forgery, all charges leveled by Torrington police in the last year.

To date, Curtis has pleaded not guilty to all charges. She was held overnight, unable to post the $5,000 bond.

  1. Put her on psychotropic drugs, set her up in a hammock (like Cocoon)
    and taxpayers won't have to pay so much for jailing and future care.

  2. Tatoos, drugs and gambling...well, that's not going to do Audrey Curtis much good in jail, will it?

  3. Coward -- she should at least have the decency to stand there and admit what she did and take her punishment.
