Tax Attorney Says: Evade Taxes and End Up in Prison Alongside this South Carolina Politician

Any tax attorney will tell you, tax evasion is not the answer to avoiding taxes!  If you are in serious tax debt and feel that you cannot pay Uncle Sam what you owe, there are better options (that are also legal) than evading taxes.  The first step to tax debt relief is to have tax professionals in your corner.  Before I tell you more about how you can reduce your tax debt, read this story about a councilman who decided to take tax matters in his own hands, and then I’ll tell you how you can place your tax problems in our hands!

A South Carolina politician faces up to five years in prison after pleading guilty to a tax evasion charge.

Columbia City Councilman Ernest W. Cromartie II, 64, was charged in federal court with a felony information, and at the same time in a plea agreement, he chose to waive the presentation of the information to a grand jury.

Cromartie, the longest-serving city council member in Columbia, is a managing partner in a law firm and owner of One Stop Party Shop. According to federal records, Cromartie did not pay federal taxes and lied about this to investigators.

Specifically, prosecutors alleged he did not pay $25,316 in income taxes in 2004, and his overall actions resulted in a $58,075 tax loss to the United States government.
