DETROIT (WWJ) – The attorney for a local priest accused of stealing money meant for the poor says his client is embarrassed by the accusations.
A not guilty plea was entered on behalf of 57-year-old Father Timothy Kane of Detroit — and for his co-defendant, 34-year-old Dorreca Brewer of Jackson — at an arraignment Wednesday.
The pair was arraigned side-by-side via video on several charges for allegedly stealing thousands of dollars from the Detroit Archdiocese Angel Fund.
Prosecutors allege the pair scoured for needy families to apply for the money, and then took a large chunk of cash for themselves.
