GREEN BAY, Wis–A former Northeast Wisconsin car dealer who defrauded his customers is in more legal trouble. A new federal indictment charges Robert Solberg with providing false information on a loan application with the Small Business Administration.
Solberg allegedly received $21,000 in Payroll Protection Plan funds during the pandemic in August of 2020. On the form, Solberg marked that he was not currently under indictment, when he was already facing charges for rolling back odometers and selling cars on consignment, but never paying the vehicle owners.
He was sentenced to four months in prison and two years on extended supervision.
