Judith Lee Marciel (AKA Judith Lee Delgado, Judith Lee Douglas, Judith Lee Latch, Judith Lee Clark), 47, of Windsor, Calif., was arrested Oct. 30, 2002, on charges of workers’ compensation insurance fraud.
Marciel was employed by an orthodontist in Santa Rosa as a dental assistant. In July 2000, she reportedly made a workers’ comp claim stating that she injured her back at work. In March 2002, she was awarded $6,200 as a result of her claim.
A California Department of Insurance (CDI) investigation revealed that Marciel’s alleged claim was fraudulent. Marciel did not sustain an injury at work, but allegedly injured her back at home while bending over to tie her shoes.
Marciel’s insurance carrier, Zenith Insurance Company, suffered a direct loss of $6,200. The total loss to Zenith, including medical payments, investigative and administrative costs were in excess of $29,000.
