Page who was convicted of using his father&#8217;s credentials for securing government contracts. His father is a disabled veteran, Sean has never served.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>His father, a combat veteran, served in the U.S. Army from 1964 to 1981 and was deemed to be 100 percent disabled when he was honorably discharged, authorities said. The elder Page received two bronze stars during his service in Vietnam. And he did not know about his son\u2019s scheme, investigators said.<\/p>\n<p>Page was convicted Friday by a federal jury in Sherman. He faces up to 10 years in prison. He was charged last year with scamming the federal contracting program out of about $1 million from 2009 to 2013 using two companies he formed.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>According to the article, the pair hadn&#8217;t seen each other for more than three years. Not only did young Sean use his father&#8217;s creds, after he was charged in late 2014, Page continued doing business as his father;<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Page continued to do federal contract work after his October 2014 arraignment in violation of a federal judge\u2019s order, court records show. He earned $35,175 from a landscaping and snow removal job with the Veterans Medical Center of Salt Lake City while he was out on bond.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>So, he was just begging for it. It seems to me that he could have avoided all of this if he had just made his father the head of the company to begin with.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>When reached at home prior to the trial, Page\u2019s father, Dalton Page, said he knows his son committed the crime.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe got all the proof that he did it,\u201d he said. \u201cSean is my son but those programs are set aside for GIs such as myself. I am very disappointed in him getting those contracts like that. The contracts were put in my name. He had me backed in a corner.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>GDContractor sends us a link to an article about Sean C.
