Lisbon contractor jailedfor larceny, fraud in N.Y.
MONTICELLO, N.Y. (AP) -- A Columbiana County contractor has been handed a maximum 5- to 15-year prison sentence for bilking 15 subcontractors and suppliers out of more than $115,000.
John Miller, 51, of Lisbon was convicted in May of 33 counts of grand larceny and scheme to defraud. Miller was the general contractor of a construction job in Liberty, N.Y. In 2002, the project owner paid Miller $145,000 for work and materials. State law requires general contractors to put those funds into escrow, but police said Miller diverted them into his own account.
Sullivan County Judge Frank LaBuda also ordered Miller to pay $115,443 in restitution.
