Did you hear about the man, Ronald Evano, that was sentenced last month to more than five years in jail due to his role in a fraud scheme in which he and his wife are said to have intentionally eaten glass fragments in order to collect more than $200,000 in compensation from a multi-state insurance company?

Evano was also ordered to repay as much as $340,000 for his role in defrauding insurers, grocery stores, restaurants, hospitals and doctors in the scheme in which both he and his wife claimed that there was glass in the food that they had eaten.

The couple filed fraudulent insurance claims worth more than $200,000 and incurred more than $100,000 in unpaid medical bills between 1997 and 2005 across several states.

Evano plead guilty to charges in federal court to 20 counts of mail fraud, conspiracy, wire fraud, identity theft, and making false statements on health care matters and social security fraud.

Evano’s wife, Mary, remains a fugitive. An arrest warrant has been issued for Mary Evano listing the same charges that her husband plead guilty to in August.

Evano asked the judge for mercy, saying in court that he and his wife are members of the minority Roma community, and needed the money to pay for dowries and other costs associated with the marriages of his sons under cultural practices.

Planning your winter vacation? Perhaps you want to visit Hawaii? Why not do something a little different this time round?

Most of the time when people go on vacation they end up staying in one room hotel or motel rooms. How boring is that? Yes I know, if you’re having a good vacation you aren’t in the room all that much, but still wouldn’t it be nicer to stay in one of the beautiful Poipu vacation rentals or the Waipouli Beach Resort? Personally, I know I’d much prefer that to a one room cramped hotel room any day.

If you want to stay in beautiful vacation rental homes and condos you should visit the RE/MAX Kauai website. They specialize in rentals on the beautiful island of Kauai.

One of the great things about staying on a vacation rental is that you can stay with your family or friends because most of the vacation homes have two or three bedrooms. Some have several bedrooms. Share the cost of the rental with your friends. Maybe your vacation will even end up being less costly than if you’d simply rented a hotel room.

Visit the RE/MAX website and take a look at the Waipouli, Poipu and Kauai vacation rentals. You can browse through all of the listings and book vacation accommodations while online.

Summers virtually over and you’re either back to school or back to work now, but I bet you can’t help thinking of what you might do or where you might go for your next holiday. Am I right?
