Estate Trustee Convicted of Stealing $178.000

MADISON County – A west Tennessee man has been convicted of taking $178,000 from a trust account and using some of it to pay for baseball fantasy camp.

42-year-old Brian Black was found guilty of embezzlement. Black faces up to 90 years in prison at sentencing Sept. 18.

Black had been appointed a trustee for the Oleen H. Fewell estate.

Prosecutors said the fund was set up for Fewells daughter. However, Black took funds for his personal use, writing more than $70,000 in checks to himself.

According to prosecutors, Black spent almost $6,000 to attend the St. Louis Cardinals fantasy camp in Florida. He also used more than $12,000 to buy items for his home in Dyersburg.

Black was the former 911 director for Crockett County.
