Oh wait. I didn't.
Sure you did. Right here.

You better believe they never retracted their insurance claim! The wealthy, or somewhat-wealthy, are plenty crooked.

You are really, really reaching.
But if it makes you feel better, go for it.

What do think you accused them of if not insurance fraud? You said the "wealthy are plenty crooked." What term do you use for what you describe in that post? It's your story, not mine.

They're not "reaching", that is exactly what you said.

If you want to be perceived as being an honest person, than why deny what you wrote?

Because there is a serious and significant qualitative (you may need to look that big word up; it's OK, we will wait) difference between making a generic and non-specific accusation against unknown persons, and making a targeted, specific accusation against a known person?

Just a wild-assed guess.

They are known to you. That they are unknown to us is irrelevant with respect to whether or not you accused them of fraud. You most certainly did and we've all read it.

And there is always the possibility that, if the story is true, they could come to the forum, read your post, recognize the story, and realize that you accused them of insurance fraud. Then it would not longer be a "generic and non specific accusation against an unknown person," would it? As though that ever mattered.

After watching you try to weasel your way out of this one, I wonder why we should believe the other things you wrote here. It seems to be that you are hurting your own credibility with these useless denials of what you wrote about these people.

My friend has a home health care business and one of her employees is being accused of stealing jewelry and money from a 86 year old woman. The employee says she is innocent. The client has no proof that anything was taken from her home. She wants my friend to pay her $1,000 for services rendered. Does the 86 year old have a case. Or is she just,looking to make a buck.

Does your friend require that her employees be bonded, and does she have insurance?

When Christy Lewis falsely accused me of stealing her money I wanted to kill her.
