Description: Lincoln, NE - Fremont Builder Sentenced for Theft of Government Services
Chief United States District Court Judge Robert Rossiter sentenced Brian Tillman, age 54, of Fremont, Nebraska on January 26, 2018 for his conviction for theft of government funds. Tillman was sentenced to a five-year term of probation and was ordered to pay restitution of $190,100 to the Social Security Administration.
