Ex-Lawyer Pleads Guilty to Theft

A former Monroe attorney accused of stealing thousand of dollars from his clients has pleaded guilty in state court.

Seventy-2-year-old entered his plea on six counts of theft in excess of $500.

Jerry Cathey claimed Grenrood had his father's life insurance checks, designated for children and grandchildren, made out to the himself and transferred about $32,000 in the father's checking account to his own trust account.

Grenrood's sentencing date is scheduled for May 24.
