The Ventura County District Attorney’s office recently arraigned the owners, along with the company’s secretary, on five felony counts of insurance premium fraud and two counts of conspiracy to commit insurance fraud. According to authorities, the three lied to their insurer to save an estimated $500,000, making it appear their employees were more experienced than they actually were. The three pleaded not guilty to all charges. Each defendant faces 12 years in state prison due to the fraud officials said. (workersxzcompxzkit)
Authorities said the defendants were also charged with a special enhancement for causing losses of more than $100,000. Under California’s “freeze and seize” law, the district attorney’s office froze $1.5 million of the defendants’ assets to preserve money for restitution and fines.
