NEW YORK, Oct 8 (Reuters) - The 85-year-old son of the late New York City philanthropist and socialite Brooke Astor was convicted on Thursday of looting his mother’s estate while she was suffering from Alzheimer’s disease.
Anthony Marshall, Astor’s only son, was charged in 2007 with grand larceny, criminal possession of stolen property and falsifying business reports tied to his handling of his mother’s fortune, estimated to be worth around $200 million.
