Gray, 43, was slapped with several charges including, exploitation and intimidation of an elderly person, false imprisonment, criminal damage to property in the second degree, and theft, the newspaper reported.
If proven guilty, Gray might face up to 20 years in prison for the top charge of felony elder exploitation.
