A Bail Bondsman You Can Trust
Tax evasion as a crime was made famous by the infamous mobster, Al Capone. Having ordered the death of over two dozen individuals, he could never be tried and convicted for them due to bribery and intimidation. However, he was an extremely rich man, but he never filed a tax return in his life. He was convicted of tax evasion and served 11 years in prison because of it. In sum, no one can escape the tax man when he comes calling.

LEGAL DEFINITION OF TAX EVASION IN THE STATE OF GEORGIA
- Tax evasion or tax fraud is where individuals, companies, corporations, trusts, or any legal entity that handles and/or earns revenue willfully evades the tax laws in order to not pay what they owe the state of Georgia and the federal government or to pay less than what they owe.
- You can be charged with tax evasion by the federal government if you evade taxes at the federal level, or you can be charged with tax evasion by the state of Georgia if you evade taxes at the state level.
- Tax evasion is a felony crime at the federal level and a misdemeanor or a federal crime at the state level.
Tax evasion is a very serious crime because if everyone committed tax fraud, the federal and state government would not have money to provide Americans with the collective good services to keep us safe, such as police, fire, and more. While only a very few Americans are ever prosecuted for tax evasion (in 2015, only 1,330 taxpayers out of 150 million who paid taxes were indicted), if you are one of those or you face an IRS audit, you could end up in jail.
