A talented international soccer star with a checkered past is stirring up headlines once again.
Garry O'Connor, 28, a professional striker for the Scottish Hibernian Football Club (also called “Hibs”), is facing insurance fraud charges in connection with a suspicious claim on his prized Ferrari.
On May 3, O'Connor traded cleats for loafers to render a not-guilty plea at a pre-trial hearing held in a Haddington, Scotland court. The prosecution believes that O'Connor filed a bogus personal auto claim with Norwich, England-based insurer Aviva P.L.C. for more than $161,000.
