	Akron: Catholic Priest Charged with Not Reporting More Than $100k in Taxes Due WKYC July 13, 2010 http://www.wkyc.com/news/local/story.aspx?storyid=139781&catid=3 AKRON -- The U.S. Attorney's office said Samuel R. Ciccolini, 66, of Akron, was charged with one count of tax evasion and one count of filing a false tax return. Ciccolini is a Catholic priest who's the executive director of Interval Brotherhood Home, a drug and alcohol rehabilitation facility. The charges allege that from April 2003 through June 2003, Ciccolini made a structured deposit of $1,038,680 by 139 individual cash deposits at bank branches in the Akron area. The information further alleges that on April 15, 2004, Ciccolini filed an Individual Income Tax Return Form 1040 and verified in writing that his personal taxable income for the tax year 2003 was $101,064, whereas he then knew his actual income was $407,062. The information charges that the unreported taxes for the 2003 tax year was $129,432. The investigation leading to the information was conducted by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS), and the Bureau of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). The case is being prosecuted by Assistant United States Attorney Robert E. Bulford. An information is only a charge and is not evidence of guilt. A defendant is entitled to a fair trial in which it will be the government's burden to prove guilt beyond a reasonable doubt.
