The story John Alfonzo Smiley told is every correctional officer's fear: He was at a San Francisco restaurant with his wife when a parolee recognized him, then gunned him down with a shot that left him paralyzed from the waist down.
Unable to work, the 44-year-old Smiley filed a workers' compensation claim that could have paid him and his wife nearly $2.5 million.
Except investigators say that isn't exactly how Smiley ended up getting shot.
Instead, court records say, the altercation that led to his paralysis started at a swingers club, where he and his wife were engaging in sex with strangers and a dispute quickly escalated.
The results are five felony counts against Smiley and his wife, Cynthia Ann Biasi-Smiley, alleging the couple conspired to commit fraud.
The pair, who are scheduled to appear in Sacramento Superior Court on Wednesday for arraignment, did not respond to a message left at their Plumas Lake home Monday. Corrections officials also did not respond to a request for comment.
But court documents filed in the case portray a lurid background about how investigators say the shooting actually occurred.
...
Smiley also told the police he didn't want to tell them "about the swingers club and hoped it would not get back to his department (CDCR)," court records say.
Apparently, it didn't for a while.
On March 27, 2009, one month before Smiley's ability to file a workers' compensation claim would lapse, he submitted a form indicating he had been shot by a former inmate.

LOL!
replacing one letter in his last name with another would make it perfectly appropriate for a club of that nature.
Unbelievable. This scumbag rejected a two million dollar workers comp settlement offer on his fraudulent claim, insisting on more before the state figured out what happened. This hog got slaughtered.
Exactly!
"Goddamned swingers!..."
This intrepid public servant was injured in the line of booty, and deserves our every consideration! Would you rather have him and his fair bride, going to wholesome, licensed Sex Clubs, or just Stroganoff? There is also a dastardly racist element to this case, as is obvious.
As a recently out-of-work ACORN attorney, I am offering to take his case against the manufacturer of that faulty condom, which exposed my future client to this terrible risk. (Let's call that Legal Plan 'B,' shall we?) I am however, at the risk of being called niggardly, unwilling to take this case on a pro boner basis.
How did I miss that? LOL
You got a beef with Stroganov?
Pingaccio!
