Dane Cook's Brother Held On $1M Bail For Stealing

WOBURN, Mass. — The half brother of Dane Cook has been ordered held on $1 million bail on charges alleging he stole millions of dollars from the comedian.

Darryl McCauley pleaded not guilty to eight counts of larceny over $250, forgery and larceny by continuous scheme. Prosecutors said at Thursday's arraignment in Middlesex Superior Court that more charges are expected.

Prosecutors say the 43-year-old McCauley stole the money while being paid $12,500 a month to act as business manager for Cook's company, Great Dane Enterprises.

Defense attorney Robert Goldstein said McCauley denies taking any money without his brother's consent. Goldstein, who asked for $100,000 bail, said Thursday that McCauley and Cook were "virtual partners" who together built Cook's career.

A pretrial conference is set for April 16.

Can SOMEONE please explain to me why ANYONE thinks Dane Cook is funny? I've had HEMORRHOIDS that I've found more amusing than him.

Anyway they can accidentally put Dane in jail just for being lame.

Good thing it is ok to steal jokes or Dane Cook would be in real trouble.

Dane Cook should be held on $1million bail for subjecting us to his god-awful comedic stylings.
