Ex-Insurance Official Warned of Allied Setup in 1964
Herbert K. Ramberg, a newly resigned Minnesota State Insurance Department official, says he raised red flags over American Allied Insurance Co. more than a year earlier. The St Paul firm later liquidated with about 1.2 million dollars in debts and a federal grand jury indicted the state insurance commissioner and 16 others for conspiracy and fraud. Ramberg cited altered company books and delayed action as signs of a phony setup and noted he wrote one of his strongest reports in 18 years in November 1964.
