Lawyer Steals Funds Intended to Pay IRS Tax Debt
The client wired $15 million to an attorney trust account to resolve her tax liability. Freeman used it to pay the IRS $8.4 million on the woman’s behalf. The money covered her tax liability but not penalties and interest, which were eventually written off by the IRS.
Freeman allegedly told the woman he sent about $6.5 million to the IRS to pay the woman’s penalties and interest, but he actually wired the money to his own Swiss bank account, the indictment says.
