Insurance fraud lands glass repairman in prison

Nick R. Martin, Tribune

A Chandler auto glass repairman learned Friday he will spend a year and a half in prison for defrauding multiple insurance companies out of more than $100,000.

Bruce Riley, 41, spent four years charging insurance companies for more than 400 bogus repairs, according the Arizona Attorney General’s Office, which prosecuted the case.

As part of his sentence, handed down in Maricopa County Superior Court, he will have to pay back the money he scammed, the office said.

Riley, who could not be reached for comment, also will spend an extra year in prison for an aggravated drunken-driving charge he pleaded guilty to in an unrelated case.
