The WA State Insurance Commissioner’s Office has released information indicating they’ve obtained an arrest warrant for a former agent, related to fraud.
The agent is accused of at least 26 counts
WA State Insurance Commissioner Patty Kuderer says former Seattle insurance agent Edward Hadley is wanted in connection with fraud. January 15th, a bench warrant for his arrest was issued in a Seattle Court, and he’s facing at least 9 counts of fraud. According to the Insurance Commissioner’s Office:
