Georgia authorities were searching for a South Georgia insurance agent who allegedly absconded with thousands of dollars in premium payments but never provided insurance policies.
Georgia’s insurance commissioner’s office said Monday that arrest warrants had been issued for Richard Burrell, 54, of Sylvester, in connection with a Cook County case.
“The suspect took $32,100 from customers and never delivered the intended product,” said Commissioner John King. “Mr. Burrell received money for a life insurance policy and for a mutual fund, then in turn converted that into an account for his personal use.”
Anyone with information on Burrell is asked to call the Criminal Investigations Division’s warrant line at 404-463-6363.
