Former Taylor Farms Exec Accused of $32M Theft | Orlando News

A former Taylor Farms exec, Brian Thure, is accused of stealing over $32 million over 14 years by faking vendor bills and hiring ghost employees—complete with a personal chef, driver, trainer, and aquarium caretaker. His wife, Julie, allegedly helped for 13 years, and accomplices including James McPherson and MTS Building and Electrical allegedly assisted in laundering the cash. The scheme was exposed after an IRS audit, and Thure reportedly confessed to fraud in a recorded call, even bragging about his lavish lifestyle—gambling, women, and all—while pressuring staff to stay silent.
