Terry Tew and John Daniel Clapper, both of Clinton, N.C. have been apprehended by the Sampson County, N.C. Sheriff’s Office for taking out fraudulent insurance policies on water craft and several pieces of heavy equipment.
The two men were already out on bond and awaiting trial on multiple counts of insurance fraud and obtaining property by false pretenses.
According to the Sampson Independent, Tew was charged with six counts each of insurance fraud and obtaining property by false pretense, as well as one count of altering serial numbers and fraudulently burning a dwelling. His bond was set at $75,000.
Clapper was already charged with one count each of insurance fraud and obtaining property by false pretense. Bond on those charges was set at $10,000.
