(Marcy, NY – December 6, 2011) The New York State Police Bureau of Criminal Investigation in Marcy arrested Frank Caporale, 43, of New York Mills and charged him with first-degree Offering a False Instrument for Filing and Fraudulent Practices, both felonies.
Caporale, a New York State Corrections Officer at Midstate Correctional Facility, is alleged to have cause to be submitted written statements that contained materially false information to the New York State Insurance Fund as part of a claim for payment.
The statements indicated that Caporale was not working, when he in fact was working a second job. As a result of these filings, the defendant did wrongfully collect $10,540 in workers compensation benefits from the State Insurance Fund.
The case was investigated by Investigator Paul Ruffo with the New York State Department of Financial Services and Senior Investigator David Scharoun with the New York State Insurance Fund. Caporale was subsequently issued appearance tickets returnable in the Town of Marcy Justice Court.
