Sister-In-Law Accused Of Stealing From Dane Cook

WOBURN (AP) ― Dane Cook's sister-in-law has pleaded not guilty to charges that she helped her husband steal millions of dollars from the comedian.

Erika McCauley was arraigned Thursday and ordered held on $1 million cash bail.

Darryl McCauley, Cook's half brother and McCauley's husband, pleaded not guilty in March to larceny and forgery.

Authorities say state police recently found more than $700,000 hidden in the McCauleys' homes in Wilmington and York Beach, Maine. State police found nearly $900,000 in cash in December.

Prosecutors say Darryl McCauley stole the money while he was business manager for Cook's company, Great Dane Enterprises. His attorney has said he denies taking money without his brother's consent.

Erika McCauley's attorney, Martin Weinberg, said, "she's vigorously contending her innocence."
