    Court records say Maurice Subilia will admit a defense contract scheme that cost the U.S. military millions.
    By TREVOR MAXWELL, Staff Writer January 24, 2009
    A defense contractor from Kennebunk has agreed to plead guilty to federal charges of money laundering, conspiracy and bribery of public officials in a scheme that bilked the Army out of at least $2.5 million.

    Maurice Subilia, 64, is scheduled to appear Feb. 2 at a U.S. District Court hearing in Portland, according to a document filed with the court in which Subilia agrees to plead guilty.

    The former president of Fiber Materials Inc. in Biddeford faces up to 20 years in prison for the conspiracy he is accused of orchestrating from 2000 to 2007. His attorney, Toby Dilworth, declined comment Friday.

    In court documents, prosecutors say Subilia and two Army officials agreed to split and personally use money earmarked by Congress for missile defense contracts. They covered up the fact that the items and services provided by Subilia were of little or no value to the Army.

    From 1978 until April 2007, Subilia served as president of Fiber Materials, which produces advanced composites, including heat-resistant materials used in the construction of missiles.

    He also owned or co-owned other companies incorporated in Maine, including Lealagi Inc. and Sage Technologies LLC.

    Around 2000, Subilia began bribing two officials at the U.S. Army Space and Missile Defense Command in Huntsville, Ala., according to court documents. At the time, Michael Cantrell was director of a division at that facility, and Douglas Ennis was deputy director. They had control over money earmarked for certain research and development contracts regarding missile defense.

    Prosecutors say Ennis and Cantrell agreed to steer funding to Subilia's subcontracting companies, primarily Lealagi.

    Many of the things delivered by Lealagi were "previously used display items from prior government-funded projects, which had no current application," according to a summary of the offenses filed at the court by Richard Murphy, an assistant U.S. Attorney for Maine.

    Other items were government scrap that Subilia obtained for little or no cost.

    Cantrell and Ennis covered up the fact that most of the material was worthless, while continuing to funnel earmarked money to Subilia's sham companies. In return, Subilia gave the officials a cut of the money, the summary said.

    "In about 2001, Subilia told Cantrell that he had a friend who was not a U.S. citizen who, at Subilia's direction, opened a checking account in Maine without having to provide to the bank a Social Security number," Murphy wrote. "Subilia told Cantrell that without a Social Security number, the bank would have a difficult time tracking the owner of the account which, in addition, could not be tied to Subilia or Cantrell."

    Between November 2002 and November 2005, Cantrell deposited 22 checks drawn on that Key Bank account, totaling $822,000. Another $150,000 was given to Cantrell from other accounts controlled by Subilia. Ennis also accepted cash and checks from Subilia. Prosecutors say the total of the bribery scheme was $1.2 million.

    The amount Subilia's companies took in, however, was far more substantial. According to court documents, the Lealagi and Sage corporations received about $11 million for items and materials covered by various missile defense contracts from 2001 to 2006. During that period, the two companies wired $5.7 million of those funds to overseas bank accounts.


    Prosecutors acknowledge that some of the services and materials provided by Subilia's companies did have value to the government, but it is unclear how much. Murphy said court rules prohibit him from speaking about the case.

    The Army estimates its overall losses in the case at between $2.5 million and $7 million, according to court documents.

    Cantrell and Ennis have already pleaded guilty to their roles in the conspiracy, and they await sentencing in federal court in Alabama.

    Leaders of Fiber Materials, meanwhile, have said Subilia...

    never told them about the other companies he created and owned. A lawsuit filed in York County Superior Court claims Subilia defrauded Fiber Materials through several schemes. The suit claims Subilia bought Fiber Materials products at a discount, then sold them to customers at a substantial markup.

    I hope that Lou Dobbs, Glenn Beck, and others will cover this story. What a discovery.
