Joel Greenberg, wife finalize divorce as ex-Seminole tax collector awaits sentencing

ORLANDO, Fla. — Joel Greenberg and his estranged wife, Abby Greenberg, are now officially divorced after a circuit judge on Monday finalized the couple’s break up, according to court documents obtained by the Orlando Sentinel.

The pair separated just over a year ago when the former Seminole County tax collector was last arrested on March 2, 2021. He was charged with 33 federal crimes and eventually pleaded guilty to six felonies — including sex trafficking of a child, identity theft, stalking, wire fraud, creating fake driver’s licenses and conspiracy to bribe a public official.

Because Joel Greenberg is currently incarcerated at the Orange County Jail awaiting sentencing — and he likely faces several years in federal prison — Circuit Judge Christopher Sprysenski said the former tax collector will not be required to pay child support for the couple’s two young children until he “has the financial ability,” according to his order.
