According to the criminal complaint filed in Le Sueur County, Tiegs is accused of depositing over $1,600 of the victim's money in his own banking account and taking roughly $4,500 of social security benefits over nine months.
The victim lives in a nursing facility and suffers from dementia.
Reportedly that nursing home has not been paid and there's a $23,000 bill for the victim's care.
Tiegs is due back in court June 18.

It's just another reason to stay away from nursing homes.
Don't know what the relationship was, but doubt he will have the money for restitution, so goombye, Russell!
