N.Y. Politico Files False Federal Tax Returns
Nassau County, N.Y., Legislator Roger Corbin has been charged with filing false federal tax returns and making false statements to agents of the FBI and IRS.
According to the complaint, Corbin received 81 checks totaling approximately $226,000 from a developer between Feb. 22, 2005, and Dec. 31, 2007. Each of the checks was made payable to “Cash” and deposited into one of Corbin’s personal bank accounts. In interviews with special agents of the FBI and IRS, Corbin acknowledged receiving the checks from a developer who had been awarded construction contracts as part of a federally funded revitalization project in New Cassel. Records showed the money was used for personal expenses, though Corbin told FBI and IRS agents he gave the money to an individual who was purportedly paying workers at the developer’s New Cassel construction sites.
If convicted, Corbin faces up to five years in prison on the false statement charge and up to three years in prison for each of the false tax returns filed. He also faces a fine of up to $250,000 on each count on which he is convicted.
