Leif Rozin is a former owner of Buddy’s Carpet in Cincinnati. Back in 2008 he was convicted on tax fraud charges. It took a while but he was finally sentenced last Friday; he received one year at ClubFed and must make restitution of $380,000 in tax.
The fraud scheme involved sham insurance policies purchased in the US Virgin Islands. The government isn’t appreciative of sham anythings used as tax deductions. The “Buddy” of Buddy’s Carpet & Flooring, Burton B. “Buddy” Kallick, died in 2007 before the case came to trial.
