(Bloomberg) — A woman convicted of taking part in a 2012 bank robbery in East Los Angeles faces further charges of filing a fake workers' compensation claim after saying the incident left her with post-traumatic stress disorder.

Aurora Barrera, 33, of Downey, California, helped plan the theft at a Bank of America Corp. branch where she was an assistant manager, the California Department of Insurance said yesterday in a statement. She was sentenced to nine years in federal prison for the crime this week and charged with insurance fraud after collecting $45,537 in disability benefits and medical expenses tied to the incident.

"It's shocking to think that Barrera, a trusted financial-institution manager, would be a co-conspirator in a bank robbery and staged kidnapping, and then have the audacity to file a bogus workers' comp claim for traumatic stress and believe she could get away with it," California Insurance Commissioner Dave Jones said in the statement.
