Owner Of Berkshire County Construction Company Pleads Guilty To Multi-Year Income Tax Fraud Scheme

A construction company owner in Berkshire County has admitted guilt in connection with a long-term income tax scam.

According to WWLP, charging documents indicate that 76-year-old Dennis Condron, a Cheshire resident and owner of D Condron Construction in Lanesborough, secretly cashed more than half a million dollars in customer checks. Over three years, he allegedly diverted these funds to his personal accounts by depositing customer payments directly into his business account.

Condron reportedly did not inform his preparer that he was cashing and diverting checks, resulting in his tax returns underreporting D Condron Construction's gross receipts by hundreds of thousands of dollars. Instead of paying the required federal and state income taxes, he retained the funds.

On February 10, 2026, Condron pleaded guilty to four counts of tax fraud, and the court scheduled his sentencing for May 19.
