ORLANDO-U.S. Bankruptcy Court Trustee Bill Cuthill Jr. has filed a civil suit in Nassau against mystery man Gregg A. White, alleging he was one of the early owners of the defunct Evergreen Security Ltd. whose principals are accused of fleecing 2,203 American and foreign investors out of a total $214 million over a 10-year period.
