Agent Racks Up 13 Felony Charges

September 24, 2001

Following a joint investigation by the CDI Criminal Investigations Branch’s Investigations Bureau and the Yolo County District Attorney’s Office, Suzanne Beall, 47, president of Northstate Insurance Agency Inc., was arrested at her residence and transported to the Sacramento County Jail. Beall was charged with two felony counts of grand theft; two felony counts of destroying property; one felony count of fraudulently appropriating property; four felony counts of passing forged, altered, or counterfeit items; one felony count of crimes against elders; and three felony counts of forgery. Bail has been set at $500,000. The Yolo County District Attorney’s Office is prosecuting the case.

Investigators are looking into further allegations that Beall accepted insurance premium from a daycare nursery school located in Davis, a pool supply company located in Sacramento, and mobile carnival companies in Southern California and Arizona. Beall allegedly failed to obtain the proper insurance coverage and to remit collected insurance premium to an insurance company. It is further alleged that she then issued bogus policies and insurance identification cards to those policyholders from 1991 through 1999.
