Jose Vicente Bodillo, 28, the towing company operator, is facing mail fraud, wire fraud and money laundering charges related to a scheme.

The U.S. Department of Justice charged a San Francisco towing company operator this week with insurance fraud on the same day that federal agents executed search warrants at one of his tow yards. Jose Vicente Badillo, 28, the towing company operator, is facing mail fraud, wire fraud, and money laundering charges related to a scheme to defraud an auto insurance company. Also charged in the case is 30-year-old Jessica Elizabeth Najarro.

The scandals started to come more into light in April after a video, which went viral, showed a Specialty Towing truck driver trying to tow a couple’s car while they were stopped at a red light in downtown San Francisco. The video shows the truck reversing with its wheel-lift lowered, attempting to hook the front wheels of a silver Honda sedan, which kept reversing to avoid the tow truck.
