The Justice Department issued a press release yesterday announcing the sentencing of a father and son duo for several contracting related frauds. The father was sentenced to nearly six years in prison while the son sentenced to 12 months. In addition, the two agreed to pay $3.2 million in restitution to the Government and to clients they had stolen from. In sentencing, the Judge told the father that it appeared that he’d made a life out of lying and cheating. And it does appear that history supports the Judge’s observation.
