Bloomington Man Charged With Multiple Tax Crimes

MINNEAPOLIS (WCCO)--- A Bloomington man is facing felony charges for committing multiple tax crimes.

Speros James Assimes is charged with five counts of filing false or fraudulent income tax returns.

According to a complaint, Assimes intentionally inflated the amount of Minnesota income tax that was withheld from his paychecks in order to erase his tax liability. The Bloomington man now owes over $29,700.

Every tax-related felony can require the offender to serve a maximum of five years in prison, pay a $10,000 fine, or both.
