Judge Rules $20 Million Insurance Fraud Case Will Move to Trial
Risoldi family members accused of filing false insurance claims after fires at their Buckingham home.

A District Judge ruled Wednesday that there is enough evidence for a $20 million insurance fraud case involving a prominent Bucks County family to move to trial, according to the Bucks County Courier Times.
The report says Claire Risoldi, the matriarch of the family, was charged with witness intimidation, racketeering, conspiracy, insurance fraud and other related offenses. Her daughter Carla Risoldi, son Carl Risoldi, and his wife, Sheila Risoldi, were charged with insurance fraud and participating in a corrupt corporation.
The family members allegedly made false claims after a fire at the family’s Buckingham mansion in 2013. It reportedly was the third fire in less than five years.
