Tanya A. Schettler, age 48, was arrested on Nov. 24 and booked into the Polk County Jail. Schettler was later released after posting a $5,000 bond. Trial will be set for a future date.
The charges are the result of an investigation by the Iowa Insurance Division’s Fraud Bureau which began in August of 2020.
