Some South Carolina residents are finding out the hard way what tax professionals have known for a long time; the state is frequently much more aggressive in enforcing tax law than the federal government.
There have been a string of recent arrests made by the South Carolina Department of Revenue for egregious but fairly common activities going back as far as 2007. I would expect that many of these people had pretty much considered themselves to have “gotten away” with these alleged crimes committed years earlier. There is no statute of limitations when it comes to tax fraud or failure to file.
If you think the tax laws are not enforced vigorously just scroll through the past few posts to see the details of what has transpired just in South Carolina.
