Randy Leroy Madewell of Danbury, Texas, was charged today in Oklahoma County District Court with four felony counts of home repair fraud after an investigation by Edmondson's Consumer Protection Unit. Madewell operated in Oklahoma as Oklahoma Building and Remodeling.
The state alleges Madewell accepted a total of more than $24,000 from four separate homeowners for home repair and roofing work but never started the projects. Project sites were in Midwest City, Edmond and two in Oklahoma City.
Edmondson's Consumer Protection Unit has statewide jurisdiction to investigate and prosecute violations of the state's Consumer Protection Act. Anyone with information regarding suspected fraud or scams can contact the attorney general's consumer protection hotline at (405) 521-2029.
