YUCAIPA, Calif. (KABC) -- Investigators didn't have to look far to find evidence allegedly showing a Yucaipa couple intentionally causing dozens of car crashes to fraudulently collect insurance money. The couple posted their own videos of the incidents on YouTube. Now Christopher and Kimberly Phelps face a slew of charges, including insurance fraud and assault with a deadly weapon. They are also facing multiple counts of child endangerment since investigators say some of the videos show Christopher Phelps' child in the car at the time of the crashes.
