Romanowski admits using steroids

Former Broncos Super Bowl champ Bill Romanowski owes $15 million in back taxes, feds allege
Former Denver Broncos linebacker Bill Romanowski and his wife owe more than $15 million in back taxes and penalties and have been using their nutrition company to pay for family expenses, the U.S. government alleged in a newly filed complaint.

“Despite timely notice and demand for payment, the Romanowskis have neglected, refused or failed to fully pay the assessments against them,” prosecutors in the U.S. Department of Justice’s tax division wrote in the 18-page complaint, filed Tuesday in U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California.

The couple owes $15.33 million in taxes for the period between 1998 and 2007, prosecutors allege...

Soooo let me get this straight. The IRS can only complain that a guy " neglected, refused or failed" to pay his taxes to the tune of $15MM going back over 25 years?

What the fuck are the rest of us doing paying taxes then? I mean, if they aren't going to seize everything you own, throw you out into the street and go after you for criminal tax evasion, why fear them? Was it a strenuous complaint? Strongly worded? Make someone feel bad?

I'm at a loss here.

They reported their income correctly, so it will be up to negotiation or the courts to decide if the deductions were legitimate. So, no, they can't seize anything based on the allegations.
