IT'S PATRICIA "CORNWELL", NOT PATRICIA "CORNPONE": A $50.9 MILLION VERDICT!

A Boston, Massachusetts federal jury has awarded best-selling crime novelist Patricia Cornwell a $50,900,000 civil verdict against her long-time financial managers (Anchin, Block & Anchin) for financial mismanagement and financial negligence.

That's a lot of cornpone (cornbread)!

The high-rolling and high-libing Cornwell is best-known for her plot-twisting Kay Scarpetta crime novels.

Cornwell had sued Anchin, Block & Anchin and its former principal, Evan H. Snapper, for allegedly mishandling some &89,000,000 of her money, failing to account for expenses, and for personally benefitting (self-dealing) from her finances over the past four years.

The financial management firm, which was $40,000 per month to oversee author Cornwell's finances, blamed her own "extravagance", including her use of private planes, et al.
