The Louisiana State Police Insu-rance Fraud Unit arrested three Ville Platte residents on felony insurance fraud related warrants. The state police said the arrests were the result of an investigation into a staged accident, which occurred in Lafayette Parish.
Kenneth Wayne Guillory, Danielle Frilot Clark and Angelina Jack are believed to have planned and intentionally caused an automobile crash in order to obtain money from insurance companies for bogus injuries and property damage. Guillory is believed to have caused a three-vehicle collision by slamming on his brakes in front of a commercial van driven by an elderly man. The lives of several unsuspecting people were endangered, including an innocent driver’s one-year old daughter.
The elderly van driver had a pre-existing back condition, which was aggravated by the collision and he was not able to return to work. The total monetary loss incurred by the insurance companies involved is estimated at over $115,000, to date.
Guillory and Clark are being charged with Automobile Policy Insurance Fraud, three counts of Child Desertion, 1st Degree Injuring Public Records and Theft by Fraud. Jack is being charged with Insurance Fraud and Theft by Fraud.
