NORWICH – Two brothers appeared in Chenango County Court on Monday, the men are both charged with grand and petit larceny in separate cases. One appeared for his sentencing, as his sibling came before the court in an initial appearance.

Coy Biviano and Anthony Biviano, were both charged with a felony level crimes in separate cases. One pleaded guilty to drug and theft related crimes Monday, and the other appeared for his arraignment.

Coy Biviano, 30, of Norwich was facing criminal charges from two separate cases. He pleaded guilty to fourth-degree grand larceny in one case after admitting he stole a credit card on July 18, and spent about $610 on it.

He also plead guilty to third-degree criminal sale of a controlled substance. In that case Coy Biviano admitted to selling cocaine and heroin last year in the City of Norwich.

After making the plea he told the court drug-related issues motivated his crimes and were the "root of evil in his life," he said.

“I’ve been dealing with these demons for 15 years,” he said. “I went straight from pills to heroin, and I’ve been made to feel shame by the ones closest to me.”

Coy Biviano said his family didn’t trust him because he stole to fuel his addiction and finding treatment had been incredibly difficult.

He said his addiction caused him to commit crimes and he wanted to receive help.
