Defendants stole more than $241,000 from more than 45 construction workers tasked with performing a concrete installation project at a hotel being built in Midtown Manhattan. Between June 2015 and April 2017, a number of workers were only paid part of their wages or not paid at all. The defendants diverted portions of the monies that should have been used to pay the workers.
