North Carolina contractor sentenced for taking $48,000 without completing job
TRANSYLVANIA COUNTY, N.C. (WSPA) — A North Carolina contractor would spend as much as 32 months in jail after pleading responsible to elder exploitation.
Travis Galloway, 36, was sentenced Monday to 19 to 32 months in jail.
In accordance with the Transylvania County Sheriff’s Workplace, Galloway took $48,000 for contracting companies from a 72-year-old sufferer and by no means accomplished the work.
Deputies stated the investigation started after deputies acquired a grievance about Galloway doing contracting work and not using a license.
Investigators later realized that Galloway had a sample of comparable crimes.
Galloway had been charged with exploitation of an elder grownup by way of a enterprise relationship, acquiring property by false pretense and misdemeanor contracting and not using a license.
