A nurse accused of stealing more than
$22,000 from a Doylestown Township Altzheimer’s Disease patient has
been ordered to stand trial in Bucks County Court.
Magisterial District Judge Philip Daly ruled
that the prosecution has enough evidence to try 46-year-old Donna Hammerstone
for felony theft by deception and other offenses. Authorities say the Bedminster woman used the
man’s credit cards and checking account without his permission to buy a heating
system for her home, fine china, jewelry, computers, a trip to an Atlantic City casino and
more.
