3 Men Facing Charges For Trying To Manipulate Veterans Affairs Department Contracts
DENVER (AP) — Three people have been arrested on charges of trying to steer U.S. government contracts to specific companies in exchange for bribes or sham training fees.
The defendants are 54-year-old Dwane Nevins, 59-year-old Robert Revis and 43-year-old Anthony Bueno. Revis declined comment. No phone numbers could be found for Nevins and Bueno.
Prosecutors say Nevins works for a VA contracting office in Colorado, and Revis and Bueno had a consulting business whose clients would allegedly get the contracts.
Nevins also faces an extortion charge.
