TULSA, Okla. (KTUL) — The Tulsa County Sheriff's Office has booked a Tulsa man into the Tulsa County Jail on two counts of financial exploitation/neglect by a caretaker.

39-year-old Kevin Sweathomas was the caretaker of an elderly, disabled family member.

Records show that instead of using the woman’s money to pay her bills, the suspect instead spent the victim’s money on his own expenses.

Evidence shows Sweathomas owes more than $64,000 to two area nursing homes.

Officers say he is being held on $5,000 bond.
