NEW ORLEANS (WVUE) – The Louisiana Department of Insurance says fraud, such as car crash schemes, drives up insurance costs for everyone.
Prosecuting U.S. Attorney Michael Simpson said the case is about more than the claims that Motta and Giles are convicted of fraudulently filing with insurance companies.
“One thing I want to make eminently clear: insurance fraud is not a victimless crime,” Simpson said. “It is a crime that destroys businesses, impacts lives, and disrupts our society.”
