Fresno furniture salesman Bernard Siomiak – known as “Crazy Bernie” – was arrested Thursday morning for Medi-Cal fraud.

The Fresno County District Attorney’s Office filed five felony counts against Crazy Bernie and fellow Fresno resident Tammy Vestal.

Both individuals allegedly committed fraud over the last several years by falsely underreporting their earnings on documents submitted to both Medi-Cal and Covered California.

According to the District Attorney’s Office, Crazy Bernie and Vestal received over $23,000 in publicly funded benefits.

An investigation revealed that Crazy Bernie was not entitled to any of the benefits.

In the 70s Tex Earnhardt's car dealership ads were a hoot! @Cyber Liberty As best I can tell he was not related to the auto racing family.
