MOBILE, Ala. (AP) - A former Mobile lawyer is accused of
stealing $90,000 from the estate of a client's husband and spending
part of the money on a diamond ring.
Mobile County assistant district attorney Geoffrey Alexander
says 49-year-old J. Gullatte Hunter III was arrested Thursday and
charged with first-degree theft of property.
The Press-Register reports that a woman named Opal Price hired
Hunter to represent her in settling the estate of her husband, Jack
Price Sr.
Alexander says Hunter told Price that $90,000 from the sale of a
house would be divided between her and her husband's children from
a previous marriage. Alexander says Hunter deposited the $90,000
into a personal bank account and had the bank issue a check for
$38,000 to a jewelry store.
