Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

LA Fraud Confidential
Q: So you're in the major crimes and you've had a lot of different experiences in law enforcement. How does a typical case land on your desk and what does screening look like?
Cases usually come from patrol reports or direct referrals from title insurers; they're screened for complexity and whether they fit major fraud criteria, with supervisors deciding if the case moves up or stays local. If it's an absolute mess or involves complex transactions, it gets assigned to major fraud.
Meet the Equity Funding Insider Who Created Thousands of Fake Insurance Policies
Q: Do you feel manipulated by Art Lewis when you were recruited?
Green says he does not blame Art but acknowledges the persuasive pull of belonging and the benefits offered; he emphasizes that manipulation was necessary for everyone to say yes, though he maintains a nuanced view of responsibility.
Meet the Equity Funding Insider Who Created Thousands of Fake Insurance Policies
Q: What happened when the indictments were announced and how did you respond?
Green describes being placed in a cooperative position with authorities, recognizing the severity of the situation, and preparing to provide information as the case progressed, including the realization that the investigation covered multiple years and subsidiaries.
Meet the Equity Funding Insider Who Created Thousands of Fake Insurance Policies
Q: Did you understand the scope of the fraud right from the initial conversation with Art Lewis?
No, I did not fully grasp the scope at first; I learned more about the breadth of falsifications as the investigation unfolded, and Green later reflects on how the fraud extended far beyond the initial policies.
