NFL star Terrell Owens is accusing a former employee of stealing $27,000 from him to pay the man’s rent at a Buckhead apartment complex.

According to the AJC, Antonio Edwards, 35, is accused of using Owens’ Bank of America account to pay his $2,100 a month rent at the upscale Post Alexander apartments from November 2009 through November 2010.

Edwards shared the luxury apartment with Anthony Watson, 34, but according to the complex management, only Edwards’ name was on the lease. He paid the rent online using a portal set up by Post Properties for accepting rent payments from residents. The portal sends out an email to confirm each time a rental payment is made online.

Post Properties management provided Atlanta police with copies of the email confirmations, plus bank records from Bank of America. Owens confirmed Edwards is a former employee but he doesn’t know how Edwards got access to his bank account.

Post Properties reimbursed Owens’ $27,000 by law.

Here’s the question: didn’t Terrell notice that $2,100 was leaving his bank account every month for 12 whole months? And if he doesn’t worry himself with such trivial things as checking his account because he’s busy updating his Twitter page, shouldn’t his accountant have noticed the discrepancies?

According to the AJC, Fulton County Magistrate Judge Kimberly Warden issued 13 arrest warrants charging Edwards with 13 felony counts of theft by conversion.

A WSB TV reporter located Edwards at a Mableton address. But when he knocked on the door, no one answered.
