Federal jury convicts Brentwood developer
NASHVILLE (AP) — A Brentwood developer has been found guilty of making false statements to a bank and forging the signatures of two investment partners in relation to a $337,000 loan.
A federal jury in Nashville convicted 61-year-old David E. Miller Friday of two counts of making a false statement to a bank and two counts of aggravated identity theft.
Miller, who has been a real-estate developer for more than three decades, solicited investors to purchase a tract of land in Williamson County. He told investors that the land would be a cash deal, but he sought the loan to partially purchase the properly. He also failed to tell investors that he had pledged the property as collateral for the loan.
Miller faces a maximum of more than 30 years in prison.
