Lorenzen Wright’s Ex-Wife Spent $1 Million Insurance Payout In 10 Months

Many people including the police believe Sherra Robinson Wright was somehow involved in her ex-Husband’s former NBA player Lorenzen Wright’s death. If she was trying to get people to believe she wasn’t, her actions after receiving Wright’s $1 million life insurance payout isn’t helping.

Via Commericial Appeal reports:

Her spending was brisk and prodigious — $32,000 for a Cadillac Escalade; $26,000 for a Lexus; $69,000 on an assortment of furniture; $11,750 for a trip to New York; $339,000 to buy and improve a new house; $7,100 for a deposit on a swimming pool; $5,000 for lawn equipment; $277 for dinner and a movie; $34,000 on lawyers.

All within 10 months.

But what angers one family member is that Sherra Robinson Wright, ex-wife of the late NBA player Lorenzen Wright, spent the money from life insurance proceeds a judge said was to support the couple’s six children.

In all, Sherra Wright received a little more than $1 million in life insurance proceeds 14 months after Lorenzen Wright’s still-unsolved 2010 murder. By last September — ten months later — she’d spent $973,000.

That spending, reflected in a recently filed report in Shelby County Circuit Court, has touched off legal battles in two courtrooms for control of what’s left in the estate of the Memphis basketball legend who earned more than $55 million over 14 seasons in the NBA yet died facing a severely restricted income and mounting debt.

“She had no authority to spend that money like that,” said Ruby Wharton, Herb Wright’s attorney. The generally reserved Wharton said she won’t litigate the case in the newspaper but when a reporter called last week she noted the report on Sherra Wright’s spending — a “bombshell,” Wharton called it — triggered prompt action.

Living the good life off of her kids’ money. It would be interesting to see her in 5 more years now that the cash flow is cut off. The police may want to take a deeper look into the life of Ms. Sherra Robinson Wright and her suspect azz ways…
