I read with interest everyone’s comments. I represented the insurers in this case. The policies excluded coverage for the intentional acts of “any insured.” Had the policy excluded coverage for the intentional acts of “the insured” or “an insured,” I suspect the result would be different as read with the severability clause. Here, because the damages resulted from the intentional acts of Steven Wangard, there was no coverage under the policy by any insured.
What interests me most about all this is Deborah still holds to the thought that this never did happen. That that poor girl made everything up and Steven is innocent. So much so, that he still runs his company through her via prison. In my opinion the two of them should be sitting next to eachother, and honestly I’m not sure 5 years was enough. It’ll be interesting to see the headlines in 09 when he moves back in the house in Elm Grove and has to register as a sex offender. Worst part about the whole thing is that they have 2 daughters and one son together. Those poor children. Imagine what they went through.
