In the civil
suit against bank teller and presumably
murdered Charles Parker, all other defendants involved deny in the
responses they have filed in the Superior Court of Walton County that they
breached their fiduciary duty involving a poultry business Parker headed.
Charles
Parker, CEO of Parker’s Poultry Farms, Inc., disappeared on the afternoon of Jan. 15, and his body was
discovered Feb. 20 in in a well in Oglethorpe County with multiple gunshot
wounds.
Investors in
Parker’s company, Parker’s Poultry Farms, Inc., Kathy Scruggs, Timothy Scruggs,
Annette Chase, Nicole Freeman and Nicky Freeman, all claim that fraud was
involved with the $500,000 they claimed to invest in the company, and are asking the court to protect this claim.
According to
court records, secretary of Parker Poultry Farms, Inc., and wife of Charles
Parker, Kenisha Parker, said that she thought that the $500,000 was not an
investment but a gift. Still, Parker believes that CFO Victor Blockum embezzled
funds.
Victor
Blockum, 450 Burkland Drive, in defense of the accusation of
embezzling funds from the plaintiffs, denies that he has tried to obtain $500,000 in funds in a Bank of
American account in the name of the poultry company.
Although Bank
of America admits that fraud did occur, in their response to the plaintiffs'
accusations, they still claim innocence with any breach of fiduciary duty
being done by a third party.
