Criminal Update

The tax evaders have been busy.

First, a woman in Tullahoma, Tennessee successfully embezzled about $500,000. Only one problem: she forgot to pay her federal income tax on her ill-gotten gains. She pled guilty to four counts of tax evasion on the $129,000 she didn’t pay to the IRS. (Story here.)

Next, a San Francisco contractor pled guilty to two counts of tax evasion for failing to report about $250,000 in income. He took under-the-table cash payments instead of reporting them to his business. He could face as much as five years in jail, but will probably get about a year and a significant fine. (Story here.)

Finally, Markell Boulis, a former Pittsburgh chiropractor, is already in jail for selling drugs. He’s in a lot more trouble. This story, which appeared a little over a week ago, indicated that he’s being investigated for insurance fraud. An owner of a medical supply firm is cooperating in the investigation and has accepted a plea bargain (story here). Now, Boulis has been indicted on tax evasion and fraud charges. According to the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, the indictment charges that Boulis underreported his income in 2001 by over $500,000 and didn’t report any of his 2002 income.
