The Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) has barred Jo Ellen Fisher of Gallipolis, Ohio, a former Raymond James Financial Services Inc. financial advisor, for allegedly stealing more than $924,000 in cash and securities from a 95 year-old client's trust account. Allegedly, Fisher transferred the stolen funds into her own daughter's brokerage account. Jo Ellen Fisher then allegedly used the funds for her own personal use.
