Charges Against Panighetti Bound to Court

Charges against the Bradford man accused of hiring someone to burn property he owns so he could collect more than half a million dollars in insurance money have been bound to court following separate hearings in front of District Judges Dominic Cercone and Rich Luther.

54-year-old Edward Panighetti is charged with several felony arson-related crimes.

Panighetti allegedly hired someone to start fires at two houses he owns on South Avenue. He also allegedly reported that a classic car he owns was stolen. The burned car was recovered in July of last year on the Allegheny National Forest.

The three cases involve more than $574,000 in insurance company funds from three separate companies.

Panighetti is jailed on $200,000 bond.
