PORTLAND, Maine - A Vermont man convicted of wire fraud for submitting false invoices to a Maine town faces a court conference next month prior to his sentencing.
A judge convicted Craig Sanborn in May and he faces up to 20 years in prison and a $250,000 fine. His case is scheduled for an Oct. 6 pre-sentencing conference, and he could be sentenced within a month.
Federal prosecutors say Sanborn submitted $300,000 worth of false invoices to Brownville for materials and services never bought.
He was also convicted last year of two counts of negligent homicide and manslaughter in connection with a fatal explosion at a Colebrook, New Hampshire, gun powder plant.
