Palm Coast Man Arrested for Faking His Mother's Signature on Checks After Her Death and Stealing $9,000

Last Oct. 24, Janet Sterry died at a hospital in Palm Coast. She was 76. Last week, her 56-year-old son, Thomas Frazzetto of White Star Drive in Palm Coast, was arrested on a felony charge of grand theft and a felony charge of fraud. He’d faked his late mother’s signature on a series of checks in November and made a half dozen electronic transfers out of her bank account in October and November, allegedly stealing some $9,000 before family members got an alert from the bank: someone was attempting to cash a $51,200 check.
