An Insurance Related Crime That Baffles The Mind
I found this story on the Detroit News website, detnews.com about a murder for insurance money.  Murders have been committed to collect insurance money in the past.  This unfortunate fact is nothing new and speaks to the thirst for money many people possess.  But the particulars of this case are baffling to me.

Two men meet in the Kansas State Correctional Facility and start talking about their futures.  Both of these men had a history of pulling scams, although obviously not that successfully.  This new “friendship” leads them to take life insurance policies out, naming each other as beneficiaries.  I don’t know how they were able to name each other as beneficiaries considering there has to be some relationship other than best buddies.  That must have been an interesting appointment.

To make a long story short one of the guys ends up killing the other guy.  He then tries to collect on the money and gets busted.  Ok, what was the now deceased person thinking?  Where they going to fake his death and things went severely wrong?  I doubt it considering the murder was done “execution style”.

I am continually amazed at what humans will do for money and the stupid decisions made that in this case cost a life.
