Lillian King Sues Convicted Niece

The Pacific Grove woman sentenced to a year in jail for stealing about $1 million in gold and silver coins and antiques from her 99-year-old great aunt has been sued by the co-conservators of the elderly woman’s estate, who are seeking to reclaim the property.

The civil lawsuit contends Hurley’s actions amounted to despicable conduct that subjected King to a cruel and unjust hardship in conscious disregard of her rights.

Hurley was released from jail in February, less than her one-year sentence, because she was given credit for good behavior and for time already served in jail since her arrest
