Someone whose never had a taxable income tells a jury “I didn’t know you had to pay tax on a present”.
How do you prove otherwise?
Tax Fraud is an illegal intentional attempt to
evade tax laws or defraud the IRS. It is a general term with various meanings and is very hard to prove because the government doesn't have proof that the taxpayer knowingly cheated the government out of
taxrevenue.
Besides, what’s the point? The feds are gonna prosecute a bunch of impoverished people rather than use them as witnesses against the bigger fish?
