A central Iowa woman has pleaded guilty to felony charge of presenting false information for an insurance claim.
Thirty-five-year old Tonya Weber of Marshalltown made the plea after an investigation by the Iowa Insurance Division of Weber’s report of an injury from a fall in the shower of a hotel room at the Meskwaki Bingo and Casino Hotel in February 2024. Weber provided an image of a bruised limb with her claim and it was later discovered to have been a picture downloaded from the internet.
Weber received a five year suspended prison sentence and was also ordered to pay a fine of $1,025 and restitution of $1,152.
