A Weatherford man who stole $400,000 from his wealthy great-grandfather in 2014 and then paid cash for an $80,000 pickup truck and luxury cars was sentenced to 12 years in prison Tuesday.

Crockett Randall, 22, pleaded guilty in April to first-degree felony theft after he stole cash from a safe that contained more than $1 million at a Waco nursing home owned by his great-grandfather, Don Spencer.

---“When Crockett was 17 years old, he was exposed to literally millions of dollars in cash stored in envelopes, each with $100,000 in them, and he took envelopes from his great-grandfather,” Goble said. “They had a ridiculous dispute, and he was young and being vindictive because he thought his great-grandfather should pay him more.”
