On February 10, Gregg Pedersen, former president of Association of Civilian Technicians Local 75, was sentenced in U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Iowa to two years of probation and ordered to pay $11,638 in restitution and a $100 fine for defrauding the Sioux City-based union. He had pleaded guilty last September to one count of wire fraud in the sum of $6,320 after being charged in August. The actions follow a probe by the U.S. Labor Department’s Office of Labor-Management Standards.
