LOWELL (CBS) — Former Massachusetts State Rep. David Nangle has admitted to illegally using campaign funds to pay for his personal expenses. The 60-year-old Democrat from Lowell who was arrested last February changed his plea to “guilty” on Wednesday. Prosecutors said Nangle defrauded a bank to get loans to purchase his home and repay personal debts. Nangle allegedly used campaign funds to pay for thousands of dollars in Lowell Golf Club dues, rental cars to drive to casinos, flowers for his girlfriend and restaurant bills.

He isn’t the only blue liner set to miss time, with Kevan Miller dealing with some lingering soreness to his surgically repaired knee. The veteran D-man will miss some time as the Bruins manage that soreness. READ MORE: Former State Rep.

Netflix’s ‘I Care a Lot’ should worry you
A stranger knocks on the door. The older woman who answers the door is informed that the visitor is now her legal guardian and will make all decisions for her. Within days, the older woman has been placed in a nursing home and her home sold so that the stranger may profit. It’s a perfect opening for a psychological thriller. In fact, it is the opening for Netflix’s new featured movie “ I Care a Lot ,” starring Rosamund Pike as Marla, a ruthlessly ambitious woman who has made a business out of exploiting older adults. Her method: petitioning a local court to appoint her as emergency guardian for older adults whom she alleges cannot make decisions for themselves.
