The following describes a pending government action that has been formally brought by a government agency but has not yet been resolved. We are providing a summary of the government’s allegations, which have not yet been proven.
October 5, 2020, NEW YORK – New York Attorney General Letitia James and New York State Police Superintendent Keith Corlett today announced the arrest and arraignment of Robert Decker, a/k/a Bob Dale, 66; Scott Driscoll, 44; and Robert Langlais, 67, for their roles in a large-scale contractor fraud scheme perpetrated against dozens of unsuspecting homeowners and businesses across upstate New York. The 17-count indictment was unsealed in Albany County Court today before the Honorable William A. Carter.
According to statements by the OAG and documents filed in court, between at least May 2018 and October 2019, Decker and Driscoll operated SJR Enterprises, LLC (SJR) as a home improvement contracting company. The indictment lays out how the two defendants fraudulently obtained hundreds of thousands of dollars from dozens of upstate homeowners for home improvement work they never performed or failed to properly perform, as well as nearly $100,000 in fraudulent loans and materials never paid for as promised. The matter is pending. For more details go to the New York State Attorney General's press release.
