buying insurance to cover an event already in progress is not legal if they dodnt disclose it on the application.

Insurance would also not cover the legal fees for criminal and illegal activities.

Am I missing something here or do you think that’s really what they thought? Like maybe they figured if they got caught they still wanted to be protected from any civil suits? Not that I can think of anything that would be grounds for a lawsuit holding them personally responsible financially. Idk I just find it so hard to believe that these jackasses were not only that stupid but didn’t seek any legal council either.

So they can be insured against personal civil suits by engaging in illegal activity outside their normal government duties?!

It's fraud, just like withholding preexisting medical conditions for health insurance, etc. It will be voided and the fraud might be argued.

Wouldn’t any crime whatsoever cause it to be voided? Then again In this case I could see how any crime that could be argued would fall under fraud when push comes to shove.

I don't know the specifics of "liability insurance", but talking about "insurance fraud" in general: anything you fail to disclose on bad faith is fraudulent behavior. The thing is not only the insurance will not pay, but the company may also argue the fraudulent intent as also a crime.
