Construction contractor pleads guilty for defrauding DoD on Pentagon rebuilding
This is a really bad story. A construction company in Pennsylvania plead guilty to falsely billing DoD for reconstruction of the Pentagon after 9/11 and stealing supplies for his own use. See The Pittsburgh Gazette for more. Really not much more to say here except one hopes that the judge throws the book at them. Also involved was a manager for the prime contractor on the contract who was taking kickbacks.
