BOSTON – A grim revelation hit the construction industry as Dennis Condron, 75, owner of D Condron Construction in Berkshire County, faces charges for a multi-year scheme that siphoned over half a million dollars meant for taxes.
Condron has agreed to plea guilty to four counts of tax fraud, according to the Department of Justice USAO for Massachusetts. The plea hearing is yet to be scheduled.
The evidence paints a picture of deceit. For over three years, Condron, accused of diverting customer checks, failed to declare this income during his tax preparation – leading to underreporting the company’s gross receipts by hundreds of thousands of dollars. This resulted in an alleged tax evasion summing up to six figures.
Acting United States Attorney Leah B. Foley and Thomas Demeo, Acting Special Agent in Charge of the IRS Criminal Investigation Boston Field Office, issued a stern statement on the charges against Condron. Assistant U.S. Attorney Caroline Merck will be handling the prosecution.
While the details are still allegations pending trial, Condron stands accused of keeping funds that should have been paid to federal and state income taxes. The grimy truth about his financial misdeeds is set to unfold in court.
This case serves as a stark reminder of white-collar crime’s reach into seemingly innocent industries like construction.
