There are a wide variety of offenses that can land a contractor in prison, ranging from fraud to outright theft.
Earlier this month Katrina Jo Pease, former employee of Seamless Construction in St. Johns, Michigan, was sentenced to 30 months to 20 years in prison after pleading guilty to embezzling more than $1 million from the company between 2009 and 2018, The Lansing State Journal reported. Pease marked invoices that the company owed as paid and then directed that money to herself. Customers went unpaid, and Seamless is still trying to climb out from under the resulting debt.
