Suffolk attorney E. Grier Ferguson under criminal investigation

E. Grier Ferguson, Esquire, allegedly being investigated for various criminal offences 



E. Grier Ferguson is the brother of re-elected Suffolk Commonwealth Attorney C. "Phil" Ferguson and the father of Alexander "Lex" Ferguson.

Sources with the Suffolk City Police Department stated that criminal complaints have been filed against E. Grier Ferguson's allegedly stealing more than $8000. 

The alleged stolen money is said to entangle the law firm of Ferguson, Rawls & Raines P.C. because the stolen money was moved from a Farmers Bank Jones Estate bank account to the law firm's escrow account and commingled with other client's funds.

According to the unnamed source: 

E. Grier Ferguson allegedly received the stolen money from filing a fraudulent 2014 personal tax return for Suffolk City Judge William Wellington Jones after Judge Jones died. The theft of over $8000 was from the Estate of Judge William Wellington Jones & the beneficiary Mary Margaret Jones.

  • In the fall of 2016, E. Grier Ferguson filed a fraudulent 2014 personal tax return for Judge William Wellington Jones who had died on January 25, 2015.
  • On or about October 11, 2016, Ferguson allegedly deposited the personal tax refund check for more than $8000 and to the Farmers Bank Jones Estate bank account.
  • After October 11, 2016, Ferguson transferred Jones Estate funds from the Farmers Bank Jones Estate bank account to a Ferguson, Rawls & Raines PC escrow account.
  • By March 31, 2017, the balance in the Farmers Bank Jones Estate account was less than $3000.
  • By June 30, 2017, all of the $8000 had been allegedly stolen.

Concerns of a "cover up" have been stated by Suffolk City employees who requested anonymity, because E. Grier Ferguson's brother C. Phillips Ferguson is the Suffolk Commonwealths Attorney and they think that Suffolk's "good old boy" network is trying to cover up any investigations of E. Grier Ferguson, Esquire.
