Roofing scam puts JC man on probation

Friday, November 14, 2014

A Jefferson City man was given two years supervised probation for pleading guilty to a charge in connection with a roof repair scheme.

Craig Boes, 38, pleaded guilty to one count of misdemeanor stealing. He had been charged with felony stealing. He must alos complete 40 hours of community service.

Court documents show in July 2012 Boes agreed to fix a Jefferson City womans roof and he gave her an estimate of $6,670.

As of November 2013, Boes had not done any of the work, and he told authorities he knew he would not be able to pay the woman back.

This past February, the woman told authorities Boes still had not completed the job and she had to get an installment loan for $5,000 to get the work completed.

Boes said he bought materials for the job, costing $2,000, but never picked them up and blew another $2,400 on other things and didnt have anything to show for it.
