Authorities said Marcus Hammer, 39, and Amy Ilmoniemi, 38, had filed a claim after a fire at their Dutchess County residence in March 2010. The claim checks, totaling some $10,000, were issued from an insurance adjuster in the Town of Woodstock.
Charges were prepared by the New York State Insurance Fraud Department.
It was later learned the couple had moved to the state of Florida and the sheriff’s office obtained arrest warrants.
On Wednesday, both Hammer an Ilmoniemi turned themselves in to Woodstock Town Court. Both were processed and posted bail — $15,000 for Hammer and $10,000 for Ilmoniemi. Both were released to return to town court at a later date.
