Charleston Business Owner To Plead Guilty
WEST VIRGINIA....
The U.S. Attorney's office has requested a guilty plea hearing for Clark Diehl, Charleston business owner of Wallpapers in Stock. Federal prosecutors say he is expected to admit that, in order to keep a contract with the state of West Virginia in 2005, he bypassed the state's competitive bidding process and submitted bogus bids to make it appear that other companies had sought the contract involving the General Services Division. Diehl is also charged with tax evasion after allegedly underreporting his 2002 income by more than $63,300, along with mail fraud.
