Living a Life of Lies

May 29, 2000

Following a joint investigation by the CDI Fraud Division and the California Department of Justice, Jessica Rodriquez of Sacramento was arrested and is being charged with three counts of insurance fraud, two counts of false claims to a Public Board and 11 counts of providing false financial statements.

The 48-year-old woman used 36 aliases, five different Social Security numbers and four different California drivers’ license numbers-many of which were used in an attempt to conceal the amount and frequency of her claims, according to investigators.

The suspect allegedly made one house fire claim, five theft claims, seven auto claims, five water damage claims and two workers’ comp claims. Investigators said that Rodriquez used fraudulent documents to show relationships with fictitious businesses and professionals to advance her phony claims.

Rodriquez allegedly submitted 25 claims to ten different companies since 1995. In those claims, she reported $490,550 in losses and was paid a total of $470,015.
