Assistant U.S. Attorney Richard A. Resnick, who is handling the case, stated that the defendant was self-employed as a mason in Rochester. For the tax years 2007 and 2008, Barilla underreported the amount of income he had received from his mason business. The total amount of unreported income was $171,364, resulting in the failure to pay federal taxes in the amount of $56,152.
The plea is the culmination of an investigation by the Internal Revenue Service, Criminal Investigation Division, under the direction of Shantelle P. Kitchen, Special Agent in Charge.
Sentencing is scheduled for November 4, 2015, at 10:30 a.m. before Judge Sirgusa.
