Here’s a story from the NY Times that some of us heard on NPR the other day:
It’s about two elderly women who are accused of befriending homeless men, insuring their lives and, after waiting two years, killing them in hit-and-run “accidents”. They collected some $2.2 million, but not all the insurance companies paid and got the police involved. Right now, they are only charged with fraud in the insurance applications because there was some hanky panky about their insurable interest since they applied as “aunt” or “fiancee” and misrepresented the men’s income, etc.
