Darryl McCauley pleaded not guilty to embezzlement charges this week. McCauley is accused accused of stealing $3 million from his brother actor Dane Cook and using it to purchase four vehicles and a vacation trip across the country. 

After raiding his home, authorities were able to recover $800,000 in cash.  McCauley served as business manager for Cook’s company Great Dane Enterprises, and he was paid $12,500 a month for his services.

I know it’s terrible to steal money from your own brother, but I can somewhat understand the temptation.  If my brother was a millionaire, I might be tempted to steal money from him too.
