A Vancouver couple have been charged with the theft of workers’ compensation insurance benefits from the Washington State Department of Labor & Industries.
Jeffrey Bart Pierson, 61, is accused of stealing more than $116,000 over about two years, and Karen S. Pierson, 62, is accused of stealing more than $64,000 over about 15 months. The couple worked at My Dad’s Automotive & Exhaust, a Hazel Dell auto repair shop owned by their son.
Court documents allege that the couple regularly stated on official forms that they could not work due to injuries suffered on the job, but L&I investigators recorded dozens of videos of them working at the shop during the time they were receiving disability benefits.
