This guy wasn’t going to let a little thing like collecting $37,000 in workers’ compensation benefits sideline his gig of working as a kickboxing instructor!
Eugene Reems, 49, claimed to have been injured while working as a lineman for Verizon and began receiving benefits back in 2007 based on those injuries. The problem was, it suddenly got discovered that his wife and cousin opened up a Kickboxing Studio and Reems began working there. Behind the desk, though, right?
Wrong. Surveillance video showed him doing kicking and punching moves. He continued to work as a kickboxing instructor through May 2014 and falsely told doctors he was still incapable of working!
Reems pleaded guilty to misdemeanor petit larceny, agreed to pay $37,500 in restitution and forfeited any future workers’ compensation benefits. Nice try, buddy!
