What happens when a seasoned violent crimes prosecutor is reassigned to the insurance fraud unit?
In this episode, we sit down with a career retired prosecutor who made the challenging transition from prosecuting violent crimes to tackling complex insurance fraud schemes. She shares what surprised her most about the move, the steep learning curve involved, and why fraud cases can be just as difficult—and just as impactful—as traditional violent crime prosecutions.
We discuss:
The mindset shift required when moving from violent crime to financial fraud
Identifying provider fraud
The challenges of charging and prosecuting fraud syndicates & how to create proper informational messaging for Judges & Jurors
Why fraud cases are often underestimated by those outside the system
The real-world consequences of insurance fraud on businesses, victims, and the justice system
This episode offers a rare inside look at how prosecutors adapt to white-collar crime, what it takes to build strong fraud cases, and why insurance fraud deserves serious attention.
Whether you’re an investigator, attorney, business owner, or simply curious about how fraud is prosecuted, this conversation pulls back the curtain on a side of the justice system few people ever see.

Too many people still think fraud is a victimless crime. And, too many people think that injured workers are the ones committing all the fraud when in reality it's fraud syndicates, the organized crime networks of fraudster cappers, fraudster doctors & fraudster attorneys capturing injured workers into their fraud schemes. We, the consumers, all pay higher prices at the grocery store, convenience store, restaurants, movies, b/c of their crimes. Report them here on our podcast. Please subscribe, hit like, sponsor us!
