Fraudulent horse swaps run by Franklin swindler exposed
A Suffolk Franklin area swindler known as Parker operated a string of dishonest horse trades from Petersburg to Courtland, selling horses he did not own and taking payments before skipping town. Victims and investigators traced losses across towns, with Parker allegedly intending more sales before capture. The case spurred legal action by William Pierce's heirs and related depositions in circuit court.
