Two construction execs facing up to 20 years in the slammer for faking steel and concrete test results at some of the city’s most prominent projects, including Yankee Stadium and the World Trade Center, had their sentences cut to four years or less by an appeals panel yesterday.
The judges tossed the 2010 enterprise-corruption convictions of Testwell Laboratories Inc. CEO V. Reddy Kancharla and his No. 2, Vincent Barone, for the scheme, which netted their firm millions of dollars.
Their other dozen convictions for phony tests at 120 different construction sites are unchanged. The panel also found Justice Edward McLaughlin’s order that their sentences be served consecutively “unduly harsh.”
