A fraudulent tax return is costing a former South Lake Tahoe woman two years of freedom.

Gwen Noel Luckett, 59, was sentenced Dec. 10 to two years in prison for filing a fraudulent 2008 tax return in July 2009. That was the first time she had filed a return in six years.

Luckett must also pay $605,692 in restitution to the IRS.

    Now you’ve piqued our curiousity. Details?
    That’s an enormous tax bill. What did she do for a living? Why the “fraudulent” claim? $600K in TAXES owed in 6 years? I want to hear more about this.

    I’m sure penalties were involved. Now if the government would get that $10 billion Google recently put off shore in Bermuda I’d really be happy. We’ve become a fascist country – that’s a blending of state and corporate interests. Remember Germany? Heil Obama!
