Life Insurance Isn’t Dead
A recently released article has revealed that a 67-year-old woman by the name of Jean Crump was convicted for her involvement in an “insurance fraud ring that staged funerals and sought payouts against life insurance policies held by deceased individuals.”
Unsurprisingly, Crump worked at a mortuary, where she and others created fake death certificates along with burial plots, empty caskets and funerals so as not to be caught. But perhaps the best part of this crime is their commitment: when people became suspicious of their activity, Crump and her accomplices filled the casket with mannequin and animal parts, then cremated it! Add to this the fact that they also filed fake documents with the County of Los Angeles and tried to pay off a doctor to the tune of $50,000, and you’ve got one smart (and insane) woman.
Crump is to be sentenced on November 29th. Her 2 accomplices, Faye Shilling and Barbara Ann Lynn, have already pled guilty.
We have no words, other than to advise you to be cautious when it comes to California life insurance. Trust the good guys, like us!
