Comp Fraud: The Swinging Corrections Officer

| No Comments

Okay, just when I think I've heard it all... Thanks to Roberto Ceniceros once again over at Comp Time for sharing Prison Guards and Sex. It's my pick for this week's Freaky Comp Friday.

The short version of the story is...44 year-old John Smiley, a California corrections officer allegedly filed a claim under workers' compensation, stating that he was shot by a parolee. The problem? A $6,500 investigation shows that he was really shot at a sex club known for swingers after he and his wife had sex with another couple. A broken condom seems to be the reason for the dispute. Unfortunately for Mr. Smiley, the shooting left him paralyzed. It nearly resulted in a $2.5 million dollar workers' comp settlement. Wow. Perhaps Mr. Smiley's swinging days are over.
