Montana Waterworks LLC, was created by Tony Belcourt, Kevin McGovern and Kent Boos, who claim a combined 50 years of experience.
The company website describes the business as a Montana owned company that represents major manufacturers of pipe, fittings, valves, fabric and hydrants.

So let me get this straight. The 3 dudes get together for drinks. Scribble up these fraud schemes on a bar napkin. Get busted for frauding the rez and government. Native dudes get prison (not their 1st rodeo) and the mastermind Boos gets a 4 million gift from the government and gets vacations on a beach. I need a good lawyer and a scheme too.
