北卡罗来纳州女子谎报肇事逃逸骗保6673美元被捕:面临保险欺诈重罪指控

北卡罗来纳州保险厅10月23日通报,Wendell居民Lashonda Renee Brown被捕,被控保险欺诈与以虚假借口获取财物两项重罪,另被控提交虚假报警一项轻罪。保险厅刑事调查处特工指控,Brown向Peak Property and Casualty保险公司与州公路巡警谎报称,她的2016年款马自达轿车被肇事逃逸车辆撞坏,但车辆损伤实际上来自另一起事故;她据此获得了6,673.70美元保险赔付。
据逮捕令,所涉行为发生于7月12日,Brown被设定2万美元担保保释金。州保险专员Mike Causey表示,保险欺诈从来不是没有受害者的犯罪,它通过更高的保费让所有人买单。Brown目前所受均为指控,依法推定无罪。

North Carolina Insurance Commissioner Mike Causey announced Oct. 23 the arrest of Lashonda Renee Brown of Wendell. Brown was charged with insurance fraud and obtaining property by false pretense, both felonies, and with filing a false police report, a misdemeanor.
Department of Insurance criminal investigators allege Brown falsely reported to Peak Property and Casualty Insurance Corp. and the State Highway Patrol that her 2016 Mazda was struck by a hit-and-run driver, when the damage actually occurred in a different crash, and received an insurance payment of $6,673.70. The offense allegedly occurred on July 12, and Brown was given a $20,000 secured bond. She is presumed innocent unless proven guilty.
