Pittsburgh Post-Gazette - August 28, 2013 - Father and son in Penn Hills accused of taking $100,000 from business to gamble at Rivers Casino
A Penn Hills father and son surrendered Wednesday morning on charges that they stole more than $100,000 from a local company to support the father's gambling habit.
Joseph Kocott Sr., 44, and Joseph Kocott Jr., 25, each face charges of theft by deception and conspiracy. Investigators with Allegheny County district attorney's office continue to trace the duo's steps and believe there might be more victims, spokesman Mike Manko said in a news release....
A detective with the DA's office wrote in a criminal complaint that Mr. Kocott Sr. approached a man named Brian Gray in June 2012, when Mr. Gray was working at Rivers Casino while operating a private consulting business called Graycomm.
Mr. Kocott Sr. told Mr. Gray he was running a company called Global Marketing Inc. and wondered whether Mr. Gray or one of his clients might want to purchase converter boxes from him, according to the complaint.
Shortly afterward, Mr. Gray and one of his clients, Frederico Sanchez Guevara, CEO of Legoocom in Santiago, Chile, agreed to buy 5,000 converter boxes from Mr. Kocott Sr.'s company for $189,870, according to the complaint.
