Workers Comp Fraud by Toyota of Poway Dealership And Judicial Bias_

2:00 PM San Diego District Attorney’s Office

330 Broadway/State St.

San Diego, California

Injured workers from the Toyota of Poway dealership will be filing

complaints with the Fraud Unit of San Diego District Attorney’s office on

Wednesday August 25, 2010. Workers at the dealership were exposed and sickened

by

mold that the owners, Castro and Troy Duhon, as well as manager,

Rick Gallagher, refused to acknowledge as a health hazard while placing the

health and safety of the injured workers at risk.

According to the complain, these individuals, their workers compensation

insurer and legal counsel have engaged in criminal schemes and intimidation

of workers to shift the healthcare costs to DI disability insurance, SSI

and other providers; thereby defrauding the public. This is not an isolated

incident as more and more employers and insurance companies shift their

costs as a result of the deregulation of workers compensation under SB 899. The

failure of CAL/OSHA to enforce health and safety regulations have aided

and abetted to shift the costs of injured workers and their families onto

taxpayers of California.

Also testifying will be other injured workers who are fighting in San

Diego for prosecution of employers and insurance companies who refuse to take

responsibility for the medical and compensation costs of injured workers.

District Attorneys including San Diego’s Bonnie Dumanis have a

responsibility to carry out prosecutions including against employers and

insurance

companies as well as officials who are involved in covering up felony workers

compensation fraud.

Additionally speakers will discuss the ACOEM regulations which have

allowed company and corporate doctors to deny compensation for health hazards

created by mold in the workplace and at homes. Sharon Kramer will be speaking

of how the San Diego court system has aided and abetted this deception and

interstate insurance fraud to continue five years longer than it should

have. She is filing a complaint with the District Attorney’s office on

Wednesday for systemic judicial bias involving ten San Diego judges and

justices,

including Justice Judith McConnell who is Chair of the California

Commission on Judicial Performance, causing the corruption of the US Chamber of

Commerce and ACOEM over the mold issue to flourish in the San Diego, California

and US courts.

Dina Padilla from the Peace And Freedom Party and Bill Balderson from the

Green Party who are both candidates for California Insurance Commissioner

have issued statements of support for this investigation and prosecution in

the Poway Toytota case and will have statements available. Ms. Padilla is

calling for an investigation by CA Insurance Commissioner Steve Poizner and

Atty General Jerry Brown, of the systemic workers comp insurer fraud over

the mold issue aided by policies established by state government.
