Woman Sentenced to Prison for Cutting Off Hand for Insurance Money
Insane Insurance Fraud Woman Cuts Off Hand for Big Payday ... Sentenced to Prison
A woman went to unbelievable lengths to get a big payday -- she cut off her hand -- and now she'll have 2 years to reflect in prison.
Julija Adlesic, a citizen of Slovenia, hatched a plan with her boyfriend, to collect on some big, fat insurance policies they took out on her. In all, they got 5 policies totaling more than $1 million.
To get the loot, they cut off her hand with a circular saw and then filed a claim -- presumably some sort of disability claim.
The insurance policies would have paid her half upfront and the balance in monthly installments.
Thing is ... she got busted, and the 22-year-old woman was sentenced to 2 years in prison. The boyfriend got 3 years.
Bold, but stupid.
