\nNew York Business Owner Sentenced for Diverting Over $1.6 Million From His Companies and Evading Taxes
\nOn March 3, 2017, in Manhattan, New York, Joseph Ciccarella, of Glen Head, New York, was sentenced to 18 months in prison, three years of supervised release and ordered to pay a $100,000 fine. Ciccarella had previously paid the $284,000 in restitution that was due the IRS. According to court documents, Ciccarella was the owner of two New York companies involved in the heating, ventilation, and air conditioning business \u2013 BSI Consulting (\u201cBSI\u201d) and KMS Mechanical (\u201cKMS\u201d).During the period 2009-2012, Cicaarella drew numerous checks on the bank accounts of BSI and KMS and made them payable to third party corporate entities, even though those third party companies performed no services for, and provided no goods to, Ciccarella\u2019s companies. Instead, Ciccarella had entered into a corrupt arrangement with the owners of the payee companies that the checks he drew on the accounts of BSI and KMS would be cashed at check cashers in the New York metropolitan area and the cash returned to Ciccarella, less a fee Ciccarella paid to the third parties for cashing the checks. Between 2009 and 2012, Ciccarella siphoned over $1.6 million from BSI and KMS which he falsely listed on the books and tax returns as \u201ccost of goods sold.\u201d Through the scheme, Ciccarella evaded over $280,000 in personal income taxes owed to the IRS.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
