Susman said the District Attorney’s Office got complaints about Gill while investigating a different pool contractor,“He’s an unlicensed contractor, and we received several complaints that he was taking money from clients and the not performing the work for which he was compensated. … This man was taking money from people for work that he was never planning to perform,” she said.
