Coweta County Woman Charged with Insurance Fraud and Felony Theft by Taking

ATLANTA – Insurance and Safety Fire Commissioner John F. King announced today that Courtney Jenkins Gour, 43, of Newnan, has been charged with three counts of insurance fraud and three counts of felony theft by taking.

“Between August of 2021 and February of 2022, Ms. Gour filed three fraudulent claims against National Truck Protection on behalf of her company, Dirty South Diesel,” said Commissioner King. “Ms. Gour submitted claims forms stating that her shop had completed warranty repair work and received three payments totaling just over $50,000. Upon receiving complaints from her clients, one of our investigators was dispatched and discovered that no work had begun on the client vehicles.

The arrest warrants were taken out on August 8th and Ms. Gour was taken into custody that same day. Our office coordinated with the Coweta County Sheriff’s Office, Coweta County District Attorney’s Office, and the Newnan Police Department on this case.
