Attorneys say Donald Cesare lost more than $15,000 at casinos in 2007, a debt that prompted him to rob an Erie bank in November. During the robbery, Cesare pointed a loaded handgun at a teller and made off with more than $6,000. Cesare pleaded guilty to the charges in January. Cesare's attorneys say the elderly man has battled a gambling addiction for at least six years. Currently, Cesare is enrolled in a religious-based rehabilitation program.
