GRAND JUNCTION The U.S. Attorney s Office for the District of Colorado announces that Trenton Switzer of Gypsum, CO pleaded guilty for willfully making and subscribing a false tax return.
According to the filed information and the stipulated facts in the plea agreement, Switzer created a nonprofit corporation in Colorado called the Church of Divine Sovereignty. During the 24 hours that this corporation legally existed, Switzer obtained an Employer Identification Number and opened a bank account in its name. Later, Switzer deposited $250,000 in the account and informed his return preparer that these deposits were charitable contributions. After determining that Switzer s Church of Divine Sovereignty did not qualify as a charitable organization, the preparer advised Switzer that the payments were not deductible. Despite these warnings, Switzer nevertheless signed and personally filed his 2015 U.S. Federal Tax Return, falsely claiming a $250,000 charitable contribution deduction.

CHARLESTON A Parkersburg man was sentenced to federal prison on charges he was a felon in possession of a firearm, the U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of West Virginia said.
John Brady Studenic, 33, a member of the Pagans Motorcycle Club, was sentenced to 42 months in prison and upon release will be under supervised release for an additional three years, U.S. Attorney Mike Stuart said. The United States requested, and the Court imposed, a sentence above the range recommended by the U.S. Sentencing Guidelines due to Studenic’s history of violence, Stuart said.
Studenic earlier admitted he was riding a motorcycle Aug. 9 on Seventh Street in Parkersburg when an officer with the Parkersburg Police Department attempted to perform a traffic stop on him for running a red light at Seventh and Park Avenue, Stuart said. When the officer activated his overhead lights and siren, Studenic fled east on Seventh Street toward Core Road, Stuart said.
