Edward H. Kahler, 64, the owner of Key Resources, a Kenmore, Washington, retirement consultation company which sells annuities and life insurance, was arrested on September 30th., 2013, for suspicion of a federal mail fraud charge, according to U.S. Attorney Jenny A. Durkan.
Kahler is accused of liquidating the account of a deceased client without authorization. Kahler lost his insurance producers license in 2012.
Federal prosecutors say that Kahler allegedly used information from a company he worked for to access the account of a client who had died in 1984. From 1983 until he was fired in 2007, Kahler sold annuities for the Variable Annuity Life Insurance Company. Federal prosecutors said that Kahler used company information to create profiles for former clients and liquidated their accounts. As late as 2012, federal prosecutors say, Kahler used $125,000 from a deceased client to fund personal and business expenses.
