Pennsylvania Man Claims Homelessness After Allegedly Paying $57K For Undelivered Modular Home

In Wayne County, Pennsylvania, The Scranton Times Tribune reports:
  • When Michael Agolia vowed to continue picketing Wyoming Homes until “I get my money back,” he wasn’t joking. Today is Mr. Agolia’s 100th day protesting outside the Wyoming Homes office on Route 6 in Texas Twp., Wayne County. Wyoming Homes Inc. owner David D. Valenti, 55, [...] , turned himself in earlier this month on charges of forgery, theft by deception and theft by failure to make required disposition of funds. Mr. Agolia claims he was left homeless after allegedly paying Mr. Valenti $57,140 for a modular home he never received.
