The Virginia Slate Police Search and Recovery Team pulls a stolen car from the James River.
Fraud Doesn’t Pay, Either
That big SUV looked so good, you bought it Now you can’t afford the payments. How can you get out from under? Here’s what you shouldn’t do: push it into a river, claim it was stolen, and file a fraudulent insurance claim for your loss. That’s exactly what ore man tried to do. But he was caught - and indicted. Jerry Dexter of GEICO Insurance and the Virginia State Police (VSP) Search and Recovery Team (SART) received a “Fraud Fighters” award for their work in this case. SART, VSP’s underwater diving team, has recovered submerged cars, boats, motorcycles, safes, and bodies from rivers, lakes, streams and quarries throughout Virginia. “They [SART] worked many long hours to successfully locate and recover the vehicle,” said Chad Moore, Special Investigations Unit Supervisor with GEICO in Virginia Beach. “The successful recovery of the car is the result of the professional and dedicated hard work of First Sergeant Michael W. Berry and the other members of the Search and Recovery Team” - Sergeants Lee T. Elliott and Mitchell A. Smith, Special Agent R. Clay Overholt, Troopers Adam C. Galton, Steven T. Kean, John F. McAfee, J. Tommy Morris, Stephen M. Rusher, James C. Smith, Jason C. Stanley, Andrew S. Trombley, Rory N. Williams and Carl R. Willoughby. Moore also credits William R. Henry, analyst for the Virginia State Police Insurance Fraud Program in Chesapeake, and Special Agent William A. Royall, Virginia State Police Insurance Fraud Program, for their work on the case. “It is gratifying to see the cooperation between law enforcement and the insurance industry in this effort to identify and reduce insurance fraud.”
