Sherita Booker, a Cleveland tax preparer, was charged by criminal complaint on April 9 with Aiding or Assisting in the Preparation of False and Fraudulent Federal Income Tax Returns. During the investigation, IRS-CI agents discovered that Booker attached fraudulent Schedule C documents to clients' Form 1040 returns even though those clients did not own businesses, using additional schemes to reduce tax owed to the IRS. If convicted, Booker faces up to three years in prison per count. The case is being prosecuted by Assistant United States Attorneys Brenna L. Fasko and Elliot Morrison for the Northern District of Ohio.
