According to investigators, the woman submitted several phony disability claims between 2013 and 2016. In each case, the woman forged the signature of a LAUSD employee.

In addition to the fraudulent insurance claim, the woman also pleaded guilty to a single identity theft charge. The identity theft charge was unrelated to the insurance case, but investigators discovered it during a probation search of the woman’s home.
