Corrupt attorneys Mark S. Gray and Peter Eliopoulos, conspiring with Kevin Hembrick of Philadelphia, were busted in an elaborate scam to steal a Harlem brownstone from Jewish homeowner:"Henry Rothenberg".

NYC DOI investigators say Gray, Eliopoulos and Hembrick filed a phony Last Will and Testament alleging that Jacqueline Hembrick, 84, was the heir to the Estate of Helen Gomillion. Kevin Hembrick fraudulently acted as the Executor of the estate, according to court documents.

According to the NYC Department of Finance, "Henry Rothenberg" through a trust is the trustee/owner of the property.

Neighbors next to the brownstone say that Jacqueline Hembrick never lived in the property. Allegedly, she lives in a nursing home for the aged in Philadelphia. Kevin Hembrick, neighbors say, is a squattter that broke into the vacant property last August.

Gray and Eliopoulos have been paying Hembrick to live in the property until their fraudulent filings in Surrogates court could transfer the deed to them, before the legitimate owners, who are Jewish, could find out.

Gray, Eliopoulos and Hembrick were caught when they served court papers on a wrong address on West 145th Street, which belonged to Mr. Yisrael. Yisrael called the police when Gray's process servers/enforcers banged on his door.

Even after their scam was discovered, the brazen fraudsters were still trying to defraud Surrogates court by trying to argue a bogus case before the Honorable Nora Anderson, a prominent Surrogates court judge.

The Surrogates court chief clerk says that the case, if fraudulent, will be dismissed.

Gray and Eliopoulos have allegedly stolen many Harlem brownstones using the same Surrogates court scam. They prey on vacant property owned by Jewish families and in particular, elderly black property owners who do not understand the legal documents that they are signing.

"These corrupt lawyers are criminals!" says a longtime elderly resident on Convent Avenue. "They need to be disbarred or put in jail!"

The NYPD, NYC DOI, and the ADL are investigating fraudsters Gray, Eliopoulos and Hembrick.

Hembrick is allegedly a notorious drug dealer from Philadelphia.

According to the NYC Bar Association, Gray and Eliopoulos' felonious actions may subject them to civil and criminal penalties, which may lead to their disbarment.

Neither Gray, Eliopoulos nor Hembrick could be reached for comment.
