A Lake County, Calif. woman is now behind bars after collecting workers' compensation while she owned and operated her own business.
Nicki Lee Buxmann, 48, owned and operated the TNT Takeover/MMA Boxing gym in Roseville, Calif., although she had previously been injured while working as a letter carrier for the U.S. Postal Service.
Buxmann told the Department of Labor on multiple occasions that she was not working or receiving an income while she owned the gym, yet an undercover agent caught her teaching defensive tactics techniques, replacing light bulbs, cleaning windows, and sweeping exercise mats.
