KESWICK, VA — The owners of Dobson Homes, Incorporated, Tommy Dewayne Dobson and Anne Christine Dobson, have been charged with six counts of felony embezzlement each. The charges relate to allegations of defrauding customers in Albemarle County.
Authorities claim the Dobsons embezzled funds from construction loans and accepted payments before ceasing work on construction sites, sometimes indefinitely. The victims, all over 62 years old and residents of Albemarle County, are thought to have been targeted due to their age and perceived vulnerability. The alleged embezzlement by the Dobsons totals more than $1.4 million and occurred from October 2020 through December 2022.
The couple was arrested and subsequently released on bond after being booked into Central Virginia Regional Jail.
