The Justice Department filed a civil lawsuit against longtime Donald Trump advisor Roger Stone and his wife, Nydia Stone, for allegedly failing to pay nearly $2 million in taxes.
According to NBC News the suit, filed in federal court in Florida on Friday, claims “the couple underpaid their income taxes by $1,590,361 from 2007 to 2011.” And they allegedly failed to pay $407,036 owed from 2018.
The lawsuit states that Stone and his wife used an investment fund in an attempt to “shield their personal income from enforced collection and fund a lavish lifestyle despite owing nearly $2 million in unpaid taxes, interest and penalties.”
