Ron Stahr, 40, of Hawthorne, Calif. and Michele Morlet, 24, of Whittier, Calif., surrendered themselves to CDI investigators in Los Angeles on arrest warrants which charged them with filing false insurance claims.
In the fall of 2001, Morlet and Stahr allegedly contacted an individual to photograph Morlet’s license plate on his own personal high-performance vehicle. CDI investigators were contacted by the individual because of the unusual request. Morlet was sent the photographs by CDI investigators. Morlet later reported her car stolen and used the photographs to file a false insurance claim with State Farm Insurance.
Bail for both of the suspects is set at $30,000 each.
