TRENTON - Attorney General Paula T. Dow and Criminal Justice Director Stephen J. Taylor announced that an Atlantic County woman was sentenced to state prison today for automobile insurance fraud.

According to Acting Insurance Fraud Prosecutor John Kennedy, Dalynn White (also known as Da’lynn White), of Mays Landing, 32, who is currently incarcerated in the Edna Mahon Correctional Facility in Clinton, was sentenced to seven years in state prison today by Superior Court Judge Michael A. Donio in Atlantic County. White was also ordered to pay full restitution. The sentence was based on White’s Feb. 4 guilty plea to second-degree insurance fraud, a charge contained in an Oct. 13, 2010 state grand jury indictment. The sentence is to run concurrent to the prison sentence White is now serving.

In pleading guilty, White admitted that between Dec. 24, 2008 and July 19, 2009, she knowingly submitted false information in applications for automobile insurance to customer service representatives of the Liberty Mutual Insurance Company. White provided false financial information to obtain 13 separate automobile insurance policies, and subsequently collected $8,241 in insurance premium refunds to which she was not entitled.

White is currently serving a five-year prison sentence following a guilty plea on Aug. 17, 2009 to third-degree insurance fraud. That charge was contained in a May 13, 2009 Atlantic County grand jury indictment obtained by the Office of the Insurance Fraud Prosecutor. White also pleaded guilty to two counts of identity theft filed by the Atlantic County Prosecutor’s Office.

In the prior charges brought by the Office of the Insurance Fraud Prosecutor, White admitted that between March 15 and June 19, 2005, she fraudulently collected $4,357 from the New Jersey Department of Labor and Workforce Development by submitting false disability claim forms.

White gave the false impression that she and a co-worker were disabled and under the care of two doctors. An investigation determined that White forged the two doctors’ names on the claim forms in support of the false disability claims. White admitted that she reported to the labor department that she was pregnant when, in fact, she was not. White also admitted that she falsely claimed her co-worker was injured in an accident on his way to work.

In pleading guilty to the charges brought by the Atlantic County Prosecutor’s Office, White admitted that she unlawfully obtained bank information of at least seven victims, and used the information to fraudulently obtain duplicate ATM and other bank cards. White admitted that she used the fraudulent cards to obtain cash and other items from various retail stores within Atlantic County.

Sgt. Weldon Powell, Civil Investigator Frank Crosson and Deputy Attorney General Steven B. Farman were assigned to the investigation. Farman presented the case to the state grand jury. Deputy Attorney General Steven Bennet represented the Office of the Insurance Fraud Prosecutor at the sentencing. Acting Insurance Fraud Prosecutor Kennedy thanked Investigator David Costello of the Liberty Mutual Insurance Company for his assistance in the investigation.
