Crime author’s ex-manager denies stealing money

The former finance manager for crime novelist Patricia ­Cornwell sharply denied complaints of negligence in federal court Tuesday, insisting that he did not benefit “in any way” from handling Cornwell’s fortune.

“I did not steal any money from anyone,” testified Evan Snapper, a former principal at Anchin, Block & Anchin, an account­ing firm in New York that managed Cornwell’s ­finances. “The money was there.”
