Christopher Cochran, a former insurance agent at Oklahoma Farm Bureau, is facing embezzlement charges for mishandling a client’s account, with investigators reporting unaccounted funds of approximately $8,000 to $9,000. The case, which began investigation in 2018, surfaced publicly in 2021 when concerns arose about the financial management of a widowed client in her 80s. Cochran contends that his actions were driven by good intentions to assist the client with her insurance payments, despite admitting to administrative errors. He has already pleaded guilty to a related insurance fraud claim, resulting in the revocation of his insurance license.
