CPM Construction Joe Radcliff Firm's hail scam may top $1.75M prosecutors say Akron Ohio
It is Sept 25 2008. I was just informed that Joe has been Indicted by Marion Superior Court on 14 Felony counts of corrupt business influence, criminal mischief, insurance fraud, and theft. This case happened in Indiana. This case has nothing to do with me, and does not place money in my pocket that this company ripped me off of. I could care less at this point. I was told by Adrain Kirtz (then Supervisor for CPM) that if i was to write anything else that Joe would: go to Ripoff Report send fabricated paper talking about felonies, make me look bad, and sue me. Now I am not sure as he said this with laptop in hand and me saying "so what" that maybe he wrote things to Ripoff Report. I do know and will say that I have not written any blogs to www.indystar.com (where I was told to locate the story about Joe), I did not even update this site with Joe's case until today,.... I don't need to be bothered with Joe or some (key word some) of the people who were behind doing unjust things to customers, ripping employees off of money, etc... For every crook out there, there is also companies and guys (ex-felons and soon to be felons) that are just trying to take care of their loved ones. I am not Joe's judge or judge of CPM staff. To God be the judgements and he who is without sin cast the first stone!

Insurance Fraud. It's Not What You Think
#4Consumer Comment
Sat, July 09, 2011
I want to thank everyone who supported me through the past 4 years. Its
a story that sounds like a movie script. In 2006, a huge hailstorm
damaged hundreds of homes in Indiana. State Farm, not surprisingly,
denied many of the claims. After complaints to the Indiana Department
of Insurance led it to begin an investigation, State Farm accused a
myself and my company of intentionally damaging roofs in order to
collect insurance.
What does State Farm do? Accuse the accuser of
fraud to protect its brand. After all, it has to protect its clients
from fraudulent claims, right? State Farm sent information to the
Indianapolis Police Department which led to felony charges being filed
against me and CPM Construction. Funny enough not any evidence for my
engineers, other contractors that inspected the property before my
company, and yes the changed engineering reports that state farm
requested to be done. the first ones said not hail damages as they all
did at this time in indy but requested them to be changed and now they
say " Man Made Damages" funny how the notes were redacted that said to
make changes and how the first engineering reports were with held. Those
charges were quickly dropped, but the damage to my business and
reputation had been done.
Thanks to the work of Mark Mikensey,
Joe Williams, Will Riley and other attorneys at both Price, Waicukauski
& Riley, LLC and Riley, Bennett and Egloff, I was vindicated when a
jury awarded me $14.5 million for defamation. Thats right, the claim
that my company and myself had committed fraud were FALSE. I had never
committed fraud at all but was simply a hard-working contractor swept up
in State Farms campaign to increase its profit margins and create
another example of how fraudulent claims are destroying businesses.
So
next time you hear an insurance company talking about how it works hard
to avoid frivolous claims and fights fraud. Think of me " Joe
Radcliff "
