He received a check in the amount of $5,200 for one job and a second check in the amount of $7,200 was received for a second job.
Both families say that they never heard from McEntire again and that he would not respond to messages.
Kay County Deputy Lewain Learned reports that he made contact with McEntire.

Post a CommentI'm not for sure on this but Paul's girlfriend said Paul was in Jail on child support charges,as of when I talked to her on May 31 2011 where they lived In Deckers,Co last. I'm sure if He's in Kay county jail it's more than that.
Wow... looks like everyone has found him guilty WITHOUT the facts. Interesting that Kay County is looking for him. Maybe they should look in the jail cell. I think that is where they put him after he TURNED HIMSELF IN.
OOPS they forgot to mention that little fact. Besides we all know everything that is printed in the paper is the absolute truth. What a perfect justice system we have!
good report, hope they got him
I think most people do not think to check out contractors before highering them. With unemployment so high, many people start their own business and usually are trustworthy. But stuff like this is actually quite common. Hope your article helps catch him or saves others from getting into the same situation with him somewhere else.
There is just some people that you can not trust anymore. I hope they catch him. I think he will never sleep soundly again, I bet. Nice report. Thanks. Since he may be near us I calling 911 if I see him.
There's always some one who thinks he's clever. Even if he got away with it, there's Someone watching...
Have heard a lot of this going on these days, it's very sad hope they catch this one and the others doing this type thing also.
His name SKIP sure is appropriate. Nice report!
Why on earth would these individuals write a check for such large amounts to an independent contractor?
Hope they get him!
