three old broads and a funeral
I can’t help it, I laugh every time I think of this story:
Federal Bureau of Investigation headquarters today highlighted a recent conviction in a scheme by four individuals in the Los Angeles area to invent a man out of whole cloth, hold his funeral, and then reap in the insurance benefits from his death.[...]
The scheme began to fall apart once two insurance companies started looking at the claims and assigned an investigator to look more closely at rip-off.
Once those in on the scheme got word the feds were snooping around, they unearthed the coffin with the supposed remains of “Jim Davis” and re-filled the casket with
a mannequin and cow parts . Then they sent it off to the crematory, and filed false documents stating “Davis” had been cremated and his ashes released into the Pacific Ocean.
Emphasis mine.
The perps, all women, are 61, 64, and 67. Well, and the 35 year old who owned the mortuary.
I am afraid they are rotting in prison now, poor dears, but what a hilarious movie this would make, no? Arsenic and Old Cow Bones, maybe.
I can’t wait.
