A flag showing support of President Donald Trump is seen hanging on a fence on Oct. 13, 2020.
Denis Vladimirovich Molla was a proud Trump supporter. He had “Trump 2020” flags flying from his two trucks and another draped over his garage. Then one night, a fire broke out and burned his camper, his garage, and two trucks to the ground. Someone spray-painted “Biden 2020,” “BLM,” and an anarchy symbol associated with antifa across the front of the burned-out garage. Molla reported the arson and vandalism to his insurance company and even launched two GoFundMe pages to raise money for his losses. The problem is that two years later, it’s been uncovered that he was the culprit.
According to The Washington Post, Molla, 29, was charged on Tuesday with two counts of wire fraud after filing a fake insurance claim, and for raising money online that he then put into his personal account.
CBS News reports that court documents show Molla "submitted multiple insurance claims seeking coverage for the damage to his garage, camper, vehicles, and residence caused by the fire."
Molla filed a $300,000 claim with his insurance. He received about $61,000. He also used donations from his “Patriots for the Mollas” GoFundMe to deposit over $17,000 in his bank account, the Post reports.
