Former public administrator employee gets 60 days for stealing $78,000
A former employee of the Public Administrator’s office will spend the next 60 days in jail after he pleaded guilty to stealing more than $78,000 from the estates of eight dead Brooklynites the agency was administering.
Fitzroy Thompson, a 37-year-old from Park Slope, will spend 60 days in jail, which will be followed by five years of probation. Thompson must also pay back the money by the end of the probationary term, Supreme Court Justice Danny Chun ruled on Monday.
Thompson pleaded guilty to second-degree grand larceny on Jan. 9.
