Two years ago The Steve Harvey Morning Show co-host Shirley Strawberry's husband, Ernesto Williams, was arrested on fraud charges [click here if you missed that].
The Fulton County District Attorney's office calls Ernesto a con artist who used Shirley's fame to lure new victims...

“He’s been conning people since 2009 to 2022,” Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis said.
DA Willis spoke exclusively with Channel 2 Action News about the grand jury’s decision to indict Williams under the Georgia Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organization Act.
“He would pretend to be a legitimate businessman, but he was stealing from people, in United States currency, vehicles, and really just talking advantage of people,” Willis said.
The 39-count indictment claims Earnest fraudulently married popular radio personality Shirley Strawberry. Strawberry is a co-host on the renowned “Steve Harvey Morning Show.”
“To create this impression of some level of success and used that to scam other people,” said Deputy District Attorney Will Wooten.
Documents claim he knowingly went into the fraudulent marriage.
“We believe she met a man, fell in love and married him and the truth is at the time he was already married to someone else,” said Willis.
Attorneys allege Williams used the marriage with Strawberry to gain access to victims. And over the course of 12 years, documents suggest Williams scammed at least 25 victims out of more than $750,000.
On allegations, he allegedly stole personal vehicles, motorcycles, coach buses, and other various properties by issuing back checks or simply not returning the items.
“He would pretend to be a legitimate businessman, but he was stealing from people,” Wooten said.
His co-conspirator, Ericka King, is also listed in the indictment on allegations she falsely represented Williams in court hearings, pretending to be an attorney.
“Earnest Williams often created this impression of a close relationship or a romantic relationship with many of these victims, used those relationships to take money, vehicles, vehicle trailers, RV’s and other property from them,” Wooten said.
The district attorney says the majority of the victims are women and believes there are more victims out there.

I don't care about this woman's decision to marry a con man. That's her problem to bare.
I'm more concerned how FW fumbled the case with her relationship with another attorney that helped derail her case against Trump. F'k him after the case is over. That's what she needs to be concerned about.
I know she didn't break any laws, but you can't allow work relationships give the sneaky low-down dawgs to come for you about anything. The NY district attorneys didn't allow it, that's why Dump didn't have anything on the Black attorneys. The case was successful.
The "hood" was created by this government. Welfare was to compensate for ...too much to go into. Lack of jobs etc. Govt in general is not your friend. That includes Mr. Trump. Trump don't care about you. But I do understand why the frustrated look to him w hope. Sad state of affairs.
👀👀
Shari it's interesting that you are trying to figure out who I am as a person by what I wrote. You couldn't be more wrong if your shoes were on the other foot. But nice try.
You can't read into what I wrote because your blinded by your own ignorance.
Vote for him, I don't care. But in the meantime, go sit on a sharp object and have a nice day. Bloop
@ 2:07 PM… How was the case successful? It’s not stopping Trump from running & he’s still gonna win the election. It was a BS case way past the statute of limitations. It just gave Trump more votes & fired up the base!
Fanni Willis is a buss down! She got a lot of nerve speaking on anybody.
Trump ain't winning shiiid but a one way ticket to hell when he finally departs this earth.😂😂😂
