CEDAR RAPIDS - A warrant was issued Friday for the arrest of a man
accused of eavesdropping on a cell phone in an attempt to steal
business from a competitor.
Cory Bailey, 19, of Cedar Rapids, failed to appear twice for his
arraignment in state court on charges that he entered the voice mail
of a cell phone belonging to DeNeve Construction in Iowa City.
According to court documents, once inside DeNeve's voice mail, Bailey
listened to the messages and wrote down prospective client
information in an attempt to take business from DeNeve. After
collecting the information, Bailey deleted the messages.
DeNeve Construction, a 12year-old Iowa City business, is involved in
roofing, drywalling, insulation and carpentry, according to its Web site.
Bailey failed to appear for a Jan. 18 arraignment. A summons sent to
his address, 2104 North Towne Lane NE, No. 2, was returned with no
forwarding address.
The arraignment was reset for Jan. 30 and again, Bailey failed to
appear. Two days later, on Friday, a warrant was issued for his
arrest with bond set at $1,000.
The charge against Bailey, a serious misdemeanor, carries a jail term
not to exceed one year and a mandatory fine of at least $250.
