“Show
Me The Law” And I Will Plead Guilty
Schiff Makes Offer To DOJ On 33 Criminal Tax
Charges
Arraignment Scheduled For April 14th
On March 24 a federal grand
jury in Las Vegas handed down a 33-count indictment against Irwin
Schiff and two of his associates, Cindy Neun and Larry Cohen. The
indictment alleges an array of income tax crimes including Willful
Failure to File, knowingly filing false income tax returns, income
tax evasion, advising others to file bogus returns, and conspiring
to defraud the Government of income tax revenues.
On April 1, Schiff
responded to the indictment with several motions including an
offer to
plead guilty to all charges if the government will
produce at his arraignment the U.S. tax statute that specifically
makes Schiff “liable” for payment of “income” taxes. (.pdf

impose a legal obligation to pay, NO such statutory language
exists that imposes a legal liability to pay federal income taxes.
