Debra Gail Hodges of Fayetteville filed a $10,000 claim with Liberty Mutual in the summer of 2011 and included a list of damaged items along with receipts. One of those items was a chandelier that she’d reported as stolen a year earlier — and been paid for — as part of that previous claim. The icing on the cake was when investigators found the chandelier … that had been returned to a store by Hodges after the first claim and before the second.
Couldn’t she think of something original to claim? Like maybe a statue of “The Thinker” …?
