Carmel Business Owner Arrested for Tax Evasion
"I didn't know what was going on," Vasquez said. "I trusted him (Strong) to run the tow-truck business, and he took advantage of me. He wasn't paying our taxes, and now we have all these tax warrants. I'm working around the clock to keep my head above water." This is what a Carmel Indiana Business owner was quoted as saying in the Indianapolis Star. Unfortunately, relying upon your business partner to take care of the business taxes does not let you off of the hook. "They're both listed as owners, that's why he was arrested,” [Sergeant] Meyer said. "He seems like a good guy, for the most part. But as part owner, he should have known what was happening." This is also the attitude of the IRS.
