A San Joaquin County, Calif., farmer has been indicted for allegedly filing false claims for crop insurance benefits. If convicted, Torlai faces 30 years in prison and a $1 million fine.
Federal investigators say 47-year-old Gregory Peter Torlai Jr. of Stockton, Calif., filed six false claims for losses on wheat and safflower between 2001 and 2005. He collected more than $400,000 in crop insurance payments.
Federal investigators say Torlai made false statements about his share of ownership in certain farming operations and in the number of acres planted.
Paperless Comment: be honest and have a happy life. May be you see some benefits of supplying false information to insurance company and rewarding from that. But on a long run – you’ll loose big time.
P.S. And don’t lie about UFO landed on your field… :))
