If there were a Bonnie and Clyde of insurance fraud, it just might be Joanne and Steven Fawcett.
Joanne, 61, and Steven, 62, were arrested for charges stemming from insurance fraud on Oct. 7 in Sacramento.
In April 2007, Joanne Fawcett claimed she was hit by a vehicle as she was walking in a parking lot, and injured her knee. Fawcett then alleged that as a result of her injury, she could not walk up stairs or work. Fawcett's husband Steven backed up his wife's claims in an interview with insurance company investigators.
