Workers Charged With Destroying Tax Returns
From Times Wire Reports
Six employees of a company that processed federal tax returns were indicted in Pittsburgh on charges that they hid and later destroyed about 80,000 returns and $1 billion in payments to make it appear that the employees had met a deadline.
The employees face charges of conspiracy and theft for the activities at Mellon Financial in the spring of 2001, during the peak tax-return processing period.
