The owners of two automotive businesses in Clark County drove themselves into legal trouble, according to the attorney's office.

, Sean Coiteux, 55, and Tracy Coiteux, 44, of La Center, were sentenced for conspiracy and violating the federal Clean Air Act.

“A single truck that has been deleted and tuned can cause the same amount of pollution as up to 1,200 trucks with compliant emissions systems,” the attorney’s office stated. “These modifications are marketed to truck owners as improving vehicle power and performance.” Prosecutors also argued that by “deleting” nearly 400 trucks, the couple placed the pollution equivalent of 127,500 new trucks on the road.
