Three months after suspect's death, robbery questions linger




By Jim Hannah, jhannah@enquirer.com
The Cincinnati Enquirer

        It's been more than three months since William M. “Bill” Gregory died in a fiery wreck, but the fallout continues from the bank robbery spree federal authorities accused him of orchestrating.

        A major Tristate bank is suing Bill Gregory's widow to recoup money it claims her husband stole. Bill Gregory's younger brother has pleaded guilty and has yet to be sentenced for his role.

        And there are questions surrounding the crash that killed Mr. Gregory.

        In a lawsuit filed May 13 in Hamilton County Common Pleas Court, Fifth Third Bank charges that Sherry L. Gregory gave her husband and his brother, Michael Ray Gregory, security information that allowed them to rob three branches. The suit alleges that she provided angles of security cameras and locations of cash drawers and tellers.

        Bank officials say the suit is an attempt to recover about $100,000 stolen from at least three branches. The suit does not say when she was employed by Fifth Third Bank, and company officials didn't return phone calls seeking comment.

        She has not been charged in connection with the robberies. Mrs. Gregory and her lawyer could not be reached for comment Tuesday.

        Michael Gregory is scheduled to be sentenced before U.S. District Judge Sandra Beckwith on Sept. 20 in Cincinnati. The Fairfield man, who was 47 at the time of his arrest, pleaded guilty to his role in eight bank robberies as part of a plea deal reached with federal authorities. He could face up to 25 years in federal prison.

        Highland Heights police said they probably will never have a definitive answer to what caused the 1996 Jeep Grand Cherokee that Bill Gregory was driving on May 29 to crash into a cement abutment on Interstate 275 in Northern Kentucky. He was awaiting trial on eight charges.
