RALEIGH
A North Carolina insurance agent already accused of embezzling more than $168,000 from a 90-year-old woman and using the money for himself is facing additional indictments.
The state Department of Insurance said Wednesday that 50-year-old Charles Mark Hall faces 12 additional embezzlement indictments and two indictments of exploiting disabled or elder trust.
Department spokeswoman Kristin Milam says the additional indictments involve 12 different victims.
Insurance Commissioner Wayne Goodwin had said that Hall, who had an agency in Smithfield, embezzled and converted to his own use three annuities from the woman and convinced her to sign surrender forms for her annuities. Goodwin says Hall took the money without her knowledge or permission.
Hall was jailed in September, but phone calls seeking information on his current status weren't immediately returned Wednesday afternoon.
